Your right I did ask for thoughts. 1 I didn't touch the belt with my fingers holding the sandpaper. 2 The pressure required to sand off perhaps a 1/16" of rubber was equivalent to less pressure than I'm using to type on this keyboard, if that much. 3 There was about 8" of belt between the...

Thanks for the info Kabob. This is a Gates belt and I have never had a problem with any of their belts before. I think you misunderstood me, I didn't sand down the pulley, just sanded the belt ribs a little to see if it would affect the squeak. Mostly stopped it, at least cut it down enough...

SO my 06 LJ Rubicon started making a very annoying belt squeak when it rained or whenever the humidity was high. I tried a new shorter belt thinking that it would help increase tension and eliminate the squeak, no luck. I stopped by a local parts store and asked for some belt dressing as a...

You could try some Evapo Rust. Drain the coolant, refill with Evapo Rust and drive around normal for a day or two. The block could be covered in rust internally from the water in the coolant preventing heat transfer. The Evapo Rust will remove that. You can then drain it and refill with...

Be glad it wasn't an Air Force Osprey. They get real picky about people taking pictures of their version of it. Ask me how I know.

You mentioned using RTV on the fuel pump reminded me of the time my brother and his best friend built a 65 Mustang. His friends dad built a new aluminum tank for it. When they installed it they used silicone to seal up the sending unit. They found out the hard way that a bronze fuel filter...

Kinda figured on the mirrors. I missed my old CJ's so much that on my LJ I removed the factory door mirrors on it and installed a "CJ mirror kit". I had to modify the passenger side to mount on the front of the windshield so I could leave them on full time. Pretty simple really, made on...

Isn't there a whole TV show about finding you?

Why does everyone think steel cable automatically equates to deadly? Properly maintained steel cable will last for years without any more danger than synthetic. Steel doesn't degrade in sunlight and will take dragging through the mud and grit better than synthetic and as long as you are careful...

PM'ed you.

My LJ on the first day of Spring in the North East.

Here's mine on the first full day of Spring in New England.

Mechanical Diesel................done

Start here in the 6.5 section: http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/forum.php The guys and gals there are the best bunch to deal with on the 6.5, they will bend over backwards to help you fix the problem rather than just replace this or this and see if that fixes it for you. The 6.5 has a bad rap...

I would take out the spacer, it doesn't look to be necessary with that amount of lift. Load it up as you will be driving it with fuel tanks half full and have it realigned after rotating your tires. Your getting two kinds of wear on them. One from the camber/toe combo and one from the tires...

Yeah they do that there. Their favorite is the JEEP spare tire cover, literally put it on everything. Every 4X4 is a JEEP to them.

The pick up is a 98 with coil springs, but it gets better............. it's also a turbo diesel!!! The four door is factory made and could be repaired to much better shape.

http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/forum.php Best place for 6.5 info around. Great bunch of guy's and gals over there to help you out. They have helped me put over 225,000 miles on mine so far. It would be a lot more, but I don't daily access to my truck right now.

If only I could have brought this one back with me............ Or this one....................... But just in case I have the GPS way-points saved.:sombrero:
