    lighting options

    While this mod looks cool, I'm not sure how functional it wil be. The hood will obstruct a lot of light. The best placement is always in front of the bumper, but It you dont have any room there, or just dont want any more there, I would suggest mounting on a roof-rack or light bar. Just my .02

    synthetic oil on old engine

    I run the 4x4 syn/conventional mix in my 96 with 82K. Been running it since 65K. Change it every 4K. Its a lot cheaper than the full syn, and has some of the benefits from both conventional and synthetic. However, I will be going to full synthetic soon. I just dont believe the mix can be as...

    decal removal

    Let mine sit in the sun for a couple of hours. Used plastic scraper and the entire pin-stripe decal came right off. No probs.

    Putting on lift . . . Help

    Rusty's should settle about .4-1" No more. And you should be happy. Rather have a high ass then that all too familiar butt sag. Have fun with it!

    Skinny tires and Fat rims OK?

    I run 30x9.50's on a 15x9 rim. Aired it down to 17 and had no probs. Yet. BUt just because I can get away with it doesnt mean anyone else should try.

    Putting on lift . . . Help

    Watch those rear shock bolts. 90% chance you'll have to re-tap them. And that is NO fun. I had to retap 3 of the 4. And they were soaked in PB everyday for a week before.

    cupholders

    **PERSONAL OPINION WARNING** I know I cant stand the side mount one. Its been knocked over so many times my carpet has coke stans all over it. That things comes loose at the slightest bump. The over the e-brake one works much better for me. As stated earlier, you can get a beverage holder...

    mercon vs. atf3

    It'll be flushed later this week. Unfortunately I dont have another vehicle and cant afford to not drive it. Its been driving with the mix for about two weeks now, and have been luckyenough that nothing happened. I even went wheeling a couple of times through some tough stuff. Thanks all for...

    mercon vs. atf3

    The screwed up part is, they probably never got all the old dextron out. So its probably a mix of the two. I had this done when it had 75,000 on it. I guess I'll have to take it back and get it done right. Such a pain in the arse. I mean, I cant be the only person concerned with the use of...

    mercon vs. atf3

    I recently replaced my radiator. Unfortunately the tranny oil cooler line had a leak and I lost a ton of my old fluid. So, I bought it to the dealer and they flushed the system and replaced the fluid. Its nice and red now. My question is this.... It is recommended that we use mercon/dexron...

    how strong is the pumpkin?

    Good guess! Thats exactly where it was. In the boulder section. Some gnarly obstacles there.

    How much to trim?

    MarkM raises a good point. Unless you plan on taking her off the road, I'd leave the flares on. Cops WILL ticket you if you take them off.

    how strong is the pumpkin?

    My reasoning was... if pumpkins are so strong, why are diff covers so popular. It's fine if thats what they wanted to do. But they were telling me it's fine to do it. If I would have attempted this trail, I would have deffinitely have hit it hard. They were all encouraging me to do it...
