What do ya' do out at Travis?

You are stoked if you '87 Chief came with the tow package. That means a D44 is in the back with a command trak limited slip. That is what I have and I go everywhere. The trick is to go slow over the tough stuff since it only locks up at slow speeds.

Thanks for the welcome. As for what i do at Travis AFB, I'm an aircraft mechanic on the KC-10A. I hope to see all of you on the trails this summer too. I should be getting my lift today or tomorrow. I'll post some before and after pictures as soon as it's on. later

Forrest here, who are you? I'm in -21.

Edit: who thinks I got a nice rig? It's beat!! I got some more body damage.... from the palm tree on the front lawn! Neighbors are getting used to seeing rock lights in the tree at all hours. Suspention testing grounds :repair:

Welcome to ! I'm out in the sandbox, but hopefully soon I'll be back that way I can build my 99 cherokee. Theres a huge amount of experience and info here, so use it to your advantage. believe me i am. I'm a blackhawk mechanic in the army, so i understand the aviation life and havoc it plays w/ our wheeling time.

forrest, this is guerrero dude. and yes i do think you have a nice jeep, regardless of the body damage. oh i got my lift today. what shift are you working? i need to put this lift on this week because i go over to A-Check next week. i'm sure i can handle putting it on but i need some air tools.

 

[Jeepxr400]

[87cheif]

thanks anyway, i'm sure i can get to some of those bolts with regular hand tools. do you have a pair of axle stands i can borrow? i know i can use those. thanks
