    Wow!

    Just watched an F-22 take off under full power. Damn that thing makes a racket! Those guys seem to think they're putting on their own private airshow whenever they fly out of here too. It's usually take off at full power, fly down the runway at 100 ft or less and then pop straight up until they...

    American Made Stuff

    Been looking for a toaster oven lately and I'm shocked at the fact that I haven't been able to find an American made toaster oven. We were at Kohls today so I was bored so I started looking at where things were made. Almost everything I looked at was made in China. A few things were made in...

    Anyone own a Tahoe

    I'm thinking about getting a used Tahoe for my wife instead of her mini-van. Thinking about a 2003-2006. Are these things worth a darn? What kind of mileage do they get?

    Oil Filters

    What is the name of that website where the guy cut open several different brands of oil filters to see how good they are? I lost my favorites when the hard drive died and someone at work wants it. I tried searching but I must be having a spaz day. Thanks.

    Best Ball Joints

    I've looked through several pages of posts on the subject but I couldn't really come to a conclusion. Who makes the best replacement ball joints. I'd like to have a greaseable lower joint too. I have a RE 4.5" lift and have noticed a bad wear pattern on the passenger front tire. I finally laid a...

    Temp guage question

    I got nasty stuck the other day in a steep nose down position. When I reved the engine I noticed the temp gauge bouncing all over the place. Is this just caused by air in the system? Also my new OEM thermostat seems to act funny. The temp gauge rises normally after a cold start to thermostat...

    WJ Axle Swap

    I've done a little searching and it seems that the GC D-44 is not a good idea. Is that true? How about the front D-30? I'd do some more searching but my boss is looking at me funny, gotta go..............

    Cooling system fixed

    Well I finally got around to working on the cooling system and she seems to be working like she's supposed to. First I drained the coolant and added a gallon of vinegar and distilled water. Ran that a few days and drained the stinky mess. Then I mixed up some baking soda water and ran that for a...

    Fan Shroud

    Who sells 4.0 fan shrouds for a resonable price? I've found a few online but the shipping is in-freakin-sane.

    How long will a cat converter live?

    I just pulled my exhaust system apart to check my cat and it looks fine. It's the original, 91, 4.0, 213k miles. My last smog check was fine but since I have it all disconnected should I just go ahead and replace it? Do these things live forever?

    8.8 Pinion Seal Leaking

    Is there a special procedure for changing a pinion seal in an 8.8 rear end? I found a post when I searched from Old Man that said there were procedures to follow if you want your gears to last. This things making a mess so it needs to come out soon.

    Ball Joints?

    I have a bad wear problem on my right front tire that I suspected was from a bad ball joint but I don't know if thats the problem now. I've tried lifting that side and wiggling the wheel at the 12 and 6 o'clock positions, it's tight. Then I put the jack under the tire and jack it up and down to...

    Baking Soda in the engine?

    I searched and didn't really find a whole lot about it, so anyways... What exactly does adding baking soda and water do to clean out the cooling system. Should it be in there for a short time, a few hours, a few days? I've also read here about refilling the cooling system with a jug of...

    Is this guy crazy? Or am I ignant.

    Is this guy crazy? Or am I ignorant. I saw a Grand Chero in the lot at work this AM with about 8" of lift and 33's so I had to have a closer look. The rear looked OK but the front is another story. The lift is about 8", long arm, 8" track bar relocate bracket, adjustable track bar, dropped...

    Pepto Bismol in t-case

    I changed my t-case seal last night and noticed my 242 t-case oil was contaminated with water. That's odd because I haven't been in the water or near the water for years. I haven't driven maybe 1000 miles this year and like I said no water at all. My question is where the heck could the water...

The last one I put on was from Pakistan Petes down the street and it is starting to spit the rubber after just 3 years and maybe 20k miles. Who makes the best...

    Double Cardan Joint

    I removed my front d-shaft on my 91 xj trying to isolate my driveline vibrations. To my surprise it was the front shaft that was vibrating. The double cardan joint is jerky. The u-joints seem fine but the little assy in the center of the joint is stiff. How do you grease it? Do i have remove the...

    Tranny Cooler

    I have been having overheating issues and one of the things I have tried is disconnecting the in-radiator tranny cooler plumbing and installing an additional tranny cooler instead. It has the factory tow package so there is already a tranny cooler in the grill. My question is this, will the 2...
