    MODERATOR!!! Possible scam here??

    Sorry guys... I'm quite the computer retard. :( Didn't see the little triangle thingy but did look for some other way to report it. Glad it got removed... I hate scammers. Thanks Mods for removing another one. Now if you could come sit in my computer and destroy the free money in USD scams that...

    TJ Manual hub question?

    I'm with you! Plus servicing the bearings is far cheaper and lasts a stupid-long amount of time! Unis... well, they last as long as they last.?. Not much comfort to me knowing they may be 10 years or 10 minutes away from failure! And its a good odds that when one goes, both need to be changed...

    Rango.....1942 Willys MB

    I feel your pain. When I plated the frame of my 67 commando to hold up to the AMC 360 I added 3/16ths plate! Both inside as well as top and bottom!!!!!! But as bad as welding a little at a time (not to mention overhead, yuk!) the worst part for me was cutting all the plates out using nothing but...

    TJ Manual hub question?

    kinda... After a little thought I'd say generally, yes, Dana 30 and 44 KNUCKLES do not interchange. But some of the hub related stuff does... kinda. My Scout dana 44 runs flat top waggy 44 knuckles but the spindles came from my dana 30 from my CJ. And IIRC there are a couple different size...

    TJ Manual hub question?

    thoughts.. I don't believe they are the same but you'll want to research that.First thing that comes to mind is checking ball jpint numbers? If they use the same ball joints then maybe they are not so different? TREs maybe be different as well. I know terraflex (and others) made a complete...

    TJ Manual hub question?

    Sounds like a good idea to me. I'd say (generally speaking, no offense to anyone meant) most folks rockin' their Dana 30 are not likely to be I'n the over-extreme category. Maybe the 35" tire and smaller? So a hub upgrade that's affordable really makes sense! If i was gonna drop 2k on my front...

    Side draft Webber and a snorkel?? :) just kidding! I'd run the moto-crap and maybe the lowest profile aluminum intake you can find. Preferably one that does away with an adapter all together. Looking good though... Keep wrenchin'!! :)

    RTT mounting pics/help?

    I finally got it moving forward and got it mounted. Unfortunately mine didn't come with the outer cover and i learned just how wet the tent becomes without it!! Even with the "shell" closed it collected enough water over a couple weeks rain that the mattress is really water logged. :( i have to...

    Diesel News: POST HERE

    I just don't understand all the bio-hate? Maybe Dino diesel has more power than currently produced (I'd like numbers though) bio does but isn't it somewhat cleaner burning? Doesn't it's nature generally leave far less deposits I'n one's engine than patrolium? And wouldn't bio from alge harvested...

    An idea....CJ8+

    Nice work sir! Still can't make myself like those grille/fenders (honest, I tried!) but they always remind me of that horrible YJ renegade with the full "ground effect" looking stuff. I do love the way you will have your own J8/Brute when your all done though! Still sportin' the nissan diesel?

    Motor Trend compares Jeeps from 1945 and 2012

    So maybe jeep/Jeep just needs to start an off shoot line. Get into the side by side off road atv thingy market. They could just bring in the tooling for an old MB-CJ3b and sell it as an ATV? Heck.. for what the going rate is for a modern SxS I think it may even be cheaper! LOL! That way they can...

    Sorry to see you selling it. I posted the link on the military jeepers site to try and help. Good luck with the sale!

    An idea....CJ8+

    I agree with you... there are a lot of folks (many that don't own or have experienced) that are negetive towards 4bts. I think they all have their place depending on what your shooting for. The 4bts two biggests downs (aside from random costs from interest spikes) would be the height and weight...

    An idea....CJ8+

    Nice! What kinda MPGs are you seeing with this? Cold starting issues? Hows traffic drivability? Drool!!!!!! Oh, And I certianly have no "hate" for the 4bt! I just wish they didn't get so popular which drove the cost of the bread vans through the roof. :( Though I think a B3.3 would be better...
