Oh, I get it, Lincon locker meaning a locker made by a Lincoln welder? No thanks. I have a Lockrite locked D35 with 3.55 right now. I like the idea of the 8.25 and the 4.56, but I'm not willing to go spool or open diff so I'm out. Thanks for taking the time to inform a NOOb and good luck...

Hmmm... I'm pretty sure I want this. There isn't any reason I couldn't have spring perches welded back on it, is there? And sorry for the ignorance, but what's a Lincoln locker? Similar to the Powertrax style locker or......... what? Thanks!

Thank you. :cheers:

I'll try. Although it's a bit like closing the barn door after the horses have already got out. I'm covering and protected dented rockers. Oh well. First I have to install them...... so I have a dumb question to ask. One end is caped off square, while the other has an angle. I assume the...

SOLD.

My Jeep came with the factory tow package but I recently installed an aftermarket rear bumper so the hitch has to go. Here's the craigslist ad. Feel free to call me. http://tucson.craigslist.org/pts/1621167483.html

If your sale doesn't go through, I'll give you the $150 and pick them up. I live in Tucson as well.

I bought a bumper from a forum member that has an integrated hitch, so I now have my Jeep's factory hitch to sell. $40. He's the craigslist ad. http://tucson.craigslist.org/pts/1621167483.html

Hey, maybe the crank position sensor is my problem too. How did you know that was it? Did you get a check engine light?

All louvers are designed to help keep the rain out. Sure, some angled rain or water running down the hood could enter, but they block normal downward rainfall. That's why they are louvers and not just slots or holes in the hood.

You have a bit of a point there. Still just seems like a lot of work for something that doesn't keep the rain out.

I think cars and trucks have hoods to keep the rain off, to look not retarded, and for aerodynamic effieciency. IMO, this ideas fails at all three reasons. I don't think the purpose of a hood is to block heavy things from impacting your engine and causing damage. How often does that happen?

Might be a Northstar, but I'm 90% sure the LT5 from the C4 ZR-1 Corvette also has the starter in the valley. LS series engines, on the other hand, are very easy to work on.

Yup. My '88 Bronco II had a Dana 35 in the front. I put a locker in that D35. Count me as three. I've changed them twice in my '96 XJ and none broke. Then again, mine has always lived here in the desert and has no rust or corrosion anywhere.
