Pete M Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 The swampers were gifts from me to the truck. :D I kinda already know what I'm getting from my sis in 2 days, but I'll wait till then to show you. Jeep on! --Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whowey Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Only took 4 celebrations and finally got some decent swag. My dad gave me some money, a insulated flannel shirt, and a Jeep Performance Book I had been looking at. It has some nice charts in it, and some decent reference material. Unfortunately, I already found a mistake in it. It claims the 4.0l makes 225 ft.lbs of torque at 4,000 rpm. :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I got a full complement of ratcheting box end wrenches, a molded tool case for my 290 Pc mechanics set I got last year, so no more digging for sockets. I also got a set of Torx drivers for my ratchets. Overall it was a good Jeep christmas if you include the stereo I got a few days before. Next year I'm asking for stroker parts :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeff87 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Make sure whoever you ask knows what "stroker" parts are, or you might get some strange stares :D Santa didn't bring me anything for the MJ per se, but I did get the lightweight coveralls and mechanic's gloves I asked for, so I guess that counts. And if gifts to yourself count, I'm getting myself 4.56's and a locker LOL (but not for another month or so) Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I'll give her the phone number and part number, and tell her to order 6 of those. I've sourced a good block and good head from a "running when pulled" renix. not bad for free :) I need to get the pistons, cam, crank and rebuild kit, add the machine work and I'll be set.

whowey Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Make sure whoever you ask knows what "stroker" parts are, or you might get some strange stares :D Jeff My wife would know, but she grew up around race cars. Unfortunately she would order chevy parts.... I forgot to add something. I got a call from the counter guy at the speedshop today. He called to ask me some questions about Renix vs. HO parts, he had someone in there with a 92 MJ, wanting to order some ignition parts. Neither one knew which system was which from the supplier catalog, and I am the only 'Jeep Dork" he could think to ask. I gave the guy the answer, got them to shove a copy of the group flyer in the guys order when it comes in. I tried to get an employee discount off my order, but it weren't happening.

512tr Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Santa came with a Tonnau Cover :-D and two oilfilter magnetizers, for both Jeeps. Anyone using these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I'm not using them, but I'm curious as to how well they work. If they're just using some big NIB magnets I may build my own, as I've got a few laying about. Let us know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
512tr Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I'm not using them, but I'm curious as to how well they work. If they're just using some big NIB magnets I may build my own, as I've got a few laying about. Let us know! Agree, could easely be made. I have always used magnetic oilfilters (buildt in magnet) on the Harley's. First time a see this seperate magnet, to be placed outside the filter.

I can't find one. where are you at 512R? members here have some questions that need some answers! Happy New Year everybody :-D ...BOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
512tr Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 where are you at 512R? Hi guys, have been up in the mountains, nice and cold ,-15C (5 F), but dressed like Eskimos the cold is no problem :) Did also change the track-bar on the MJ, due to bad Rod End. The tonneau cover is coming from Summit Racing Part no: TKS-441188 Price: $165 Will post some pics when installed. Okay, I'll bite. What's the motor on the cradle for? Here’s where the sixpack is going …. Check this link for more pictures/info. http://www.hobartwelders.com/mboard/showthread.php?t=16104&page=1 Did the chopper 6 years ago.

Cool. Trying to synchro 6 carbs, not cool!! :D Agree, I think the 6 carb syncro job will be a PIA, but don’t see it as a big problem…just a big challenge he,he :-D Big bore pistons are in, all carbs are re-jetted to match the increased displacement, free flow air filters and free flow exhaust (6 to 1) . Last night we (GF and me) installed the Tonneau cover, and one finished vent cover, here it is… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 dayum that's a sexy bike. You said you work behind computers all day, what's your day job? I'm in the it/service/repair sector. PC's suck by the way, that's why the MJ has an Apple sticker on it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingpong Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I must say,, I am feeling a few things :shock: but more primitive isnt one of them after looking at those pics :wink: BTW nice job on the vent covers, and the cover looks good on the bed.

shagtn Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Well. I didnt get anything for my MJ. All I got was an MJ. My wife's grandfather gave me his 88, that he rarely drove. Needless to say that made my Christmas. :D It is still stock (at the moment) I am already looking for mods to start this project and get it rolling. I will be sure to post pics as I go. It is nice to be here and I look forward to talking with all of you in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attaboybob Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 512tr, thanks for the Tonneau info. I ordered mine today. It is on back order until 1-16-06. I suppose they don't get too many orders for MJ Tonneau's. ...BOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
