Lee21490 Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Guess we should have looked better. I know there's a bunch of changes between those years of d30's just spaced it. Either way though, Glad you got it replaced, The original bearing was just FUBAR lol
Jackrabbit41 Posted December 9, 2015 Author Posted December 9, 2015 Best picture I could take of it so far. Everything's going good. I went to get an alignment yesterday but they wouldn't do it until I fixed the tie rod ends and control arm bushings. I want to get the OTK from Iron rock but I don't have the money so i just got 2-25$ replacement ends from them, but I did get fixed lower arms and adjustable uppers coming in the mail in a week or so. I took a loan from my parents. Ive been doing a lot of welding for friends so Ive been making some nice cash so hopefully I can pay them back after I sell this weight rack I've made for a local gym.

Jackrabbit41 Posted December 9, 2015 Author Posted December 9, 2015 The 4.10s are nice, much more torque and going 25 is a lot easier now because 2nd used to not like it and neither did 3rd. I haven't been on the free way yet but hopefully I don't get any drive shaft vibes and hopefully it'll make it to 70 mph.
JurassicJeep24 Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 That white jeep in the picture is a CJ10 they were mostly exported to Australia, so you don't really see many of them around in the states. They also had a CJ10A which was used by the military as an aircraft tug.
Jackrabbit41 Posted December 17, 2015 Author Posted December 17, 2015 So on saturday I put in my 2.5 degree shims and they helped but looks like I'm going to have to go about a degree or so more. I thought I only needed 2-3 degrees more but I guess i didn't measure right. Around 62mph I get some vibes. Before the 2.5 shims i put in it was around 48ish.
Jeep_Comanche17 Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 cool thanks man ill keep u posted on my mj project might start a forum. in the meantime keep on jeepin . :MJ 1: .

Jackrabbit41 Posted December 21, 2015 Author Posted December 21, 2015 here's my new LED dash lights: [/url]">http://http://s1148.photobucket.com/user/Jackrabbit123/media/IMG_5097_zps0tqlkyri.jpg.html'> I still need to get some more. I didn't buy enough
Jackrabbit41 Posted December 25, 2015 Author Posted December 25, 2015 Well I was very surprised to get tires for Christmas. I'm going to Les Schwab tomorrow to get some 33x15x10.5 toyo open country M/Ts. I don't want to go any wider then I have now because I want my same turning radius. I'm on the road 99% of the time anyway so I've heard the Toyos are pretty good

Jackrabbit41 Posted December 27, 2015 Author Posted December 27, 2015 My brand new, 2 week old, leaf springs already look like they're 25 years old. I need to paint them
Jackrabbit41 Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 Well today we are heading down to the dunes, but I'm pissed because i left my drivers side door unlocked and most of my tools got stolen. The people left a lot of them though but it was still about 500$ worth.
Lee21490 Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Well today we are heading down to the dunes, but I'm pissed because i left my drivers side door unlocked and most of my tools got stolen. The people left a lot of them though but it was still about 500$ worth. Seem to be a lot of people prowling for unlocked vehicles around xmas... Someone jacked a couple things from my truck too the other day. When you get back, Hit me up. We need to go wheeling!
Jeep_Comanche17 Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 Well I was very surprised to get tires for Christmas. I'm going to Les Schwab tomorrow to get some 33x15x10.5 toyo open country M/Ts. I don't want to go any wider then I have now because I want my same turning radius. I'm on the road 99% of the time anyway so I've heard the Toyos are pretty good if you still have yout old tires, i might be interested in buying them. sucks your so far away though. and happy new year . :MJ 1: .
Jeep_Comanche17 Posted January 1, 2016 Posted January 1, 2016 oh i also bought a 1999 cherokee sport 4dr 4X4 for $150 it runs and drives, but title is missing. plan to get a title and fix it up nice and pretty and sell it so i have some money to work on my comanche. if i can't get a title, i will part it out and do a 4X4 swap on my MJ and sell the rest. but i might also sell both my MJ and my XJ and get a chevy k-5 blazer 4X4 with a 6.5 liter turbo diesel from my aunt. Decisions, desicions... :dunno: :???:
Jackrabbit41 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Posted January 1, 2016 So I'm at the dunes. My truck is doing really well but I blew a hole in my master cylinder line and a bearing cap on my front driveshaft fell off so I'm getting a weird knocking Sound but it'll be fine. Tomorrow I'm making a trip up to napa in Tilamook OR to get some parts. Overall though the jeeps killing it out here
