I ordered one online from here http://www.jackguard.com/products.html in April(?). Arrived in a couple weeks. FWIW, I also recommend The Safe Jack Stabilizer...

If you are doing it for heat reasons, you might consider a special thermal barrier product like Bus Kote: http://www.hytechsales.com/prod2150.html If Gr8Tops doesn't get Jeff Scherb's Safari Cab finished pretty soon, I'll end up doing my factory hard top.

This thread covers the basics of what I'll be doing. Beowulf already did the Kilby/Odyssey combo ... http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/73865-Dual-battery-setup

If you have a week to read it, JF has a Looong thread on it: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f9/savvy-under-armor-1046497/ I've got all the bracketry and precursor equipment installed for mine - I just need to bolt up the plates themselves once I finish up all of the other undercarriage work...

Are you using the 120A Rated SI series ACR? I was considering using #7622 ML series ACR version rated for up to 500A continuous/1100A cranking (with sufficiently heavy wire) to eliminate the need for a separate manual battery joining switch. It has a remote switch for Isolate/Auto/Join with a...

Almost exactly what I am planning. I have the Kilby kit on the shelf. Other than than A/C work and the PCM move, did you need to do any physical reconfiguration to fit the Sears P1s vs. the Kilby-spec G34 Optimas? What do you think of using this BlueSea fuse mounted right at the alternator...

Kilby has a dual battery tray kit (designed for Optima Batteries but I will be checking to see if it will work w/ Odyssey/Die-Hard Platinums) with a replacement A/C line that moves the accumulator over toward the engine to provide sufficient space. I have the kit, but have not installed it yet...

Just a quick FYI

This JF thread is a pretty good consolidation of the "known" issues and proposed "fixes" ... http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f9/2005-06-jeep-opda_cps_distributor-failure-1144202/

Re Medical Cabinet & Table Some more info and a source: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/22118-Surplus-drawer-cabinet-table-system

I believe that Beowulf is talking about Wardrow's jeep. Here is the specific posts w/ pics: . http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=554944&postcount=47 . http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=557703&postcount=49 from this thread: ...

Ok, is that the that I ordered from the dropdown, or are the "B" rates a special order item?

Wardrow, belated thanks for the pics! Suspension work starts in March.

Nice setup. My Puma just came today. :wings: Just a word warning ... Be sure to keep the water separator completely drained if you go anywhere with close to freezing temps. Otherwise that pretty sight tube there (at least) will likely crack, leaving a "leak" at best, or even no usable air...

Going to a 5w-40 oil vs. a 15w-40 oil should help too. Shell Rotella T6 Synthetic ($20/gal at Walmart), Mobil Delvac 1 ESP 5W-40, or Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck are all 5W-40 Diesel-rated Synthetics.
