    Guess who....

    Too Late. By the time I realized the issue, and considering the amount of work it took to get the crossmember in place, I was ready to move on. I have considered calling them to let them know about it, so they can try to improve their quality control. Unless they really beg and give me some...

    Guess who....

    I missed this statement when I originally read this thread. In fact, the upper rear passenger side control arm mount had this extra space. I did notice the space before I tightened everything up. In order to remove that slop, I put two grade 8 washers in there. Once I did that, things...

    Anyone Running a RE LA with a Banks Exhaust?

    I recently finished up my exhaust with the banks header and cat back system. One thing I found when mounting up the muffler: the pipe that attaches to the cat actually has a slight bend in it. So, instead of mounting the muffler with the 'Banks Monster' stamping facing down, I mounted it with...

    Blacksheep buildup progress

    Thanks! I can't believe I forgot to include the new rock sliders as part of the work I've done! The funny thing is, what takes the longest is the cleanup before re-assembly. Breaking down those RE joints, partly due to the massive amount of tranny fluid that had leaked all over the old...

    300

    Concerning the review you posted....the guy doesn't know what the title has to do with the movie? Then, in his very first statement he references exactly why the movie is called 300. What a nutsack.... I went and watched it last night. It was a very cool movie, but I doubt it will be the...

    yeah, but EJS has something that wheelin with your same group all the time doesn't have. You do get a chance to meet some great people at EJS. The socialization is part of it. In fact, for me, every trail I ever ran, the socialization is part of it. Rushing through a trail and never really...

    MTR...the right tire for me?

    When you are working on what pressure to run, try this: Start with whatever pressure you think is right - 26psi is a good enough start. Then, drive over a dirt (or whatever) surface that will put a light coat of dust on your tires. Then, drive onto a paved surface. Try to keep the vehicle...

    You should register. The funds go to the Red Rock 4 Wheelers who do a lot of work to keep the trails open year-round.

    machined aluminum radiator (tranny cooler) fittings

    There was no doubt that I would be doing that, regardless of the material of the fitting. Last thing I need is anything (else) leaking!

    Worst Movie?

    Nope, obviously we disagree. I thought they were both great, and I have the collector's edition DVDs, and will do the same after #3 comes out. Of course, I'll have to see it on the big screen first...

    machined aluminum radiator (tranny cooler) fittings

    update I sent an email to the sales guy who I worked with to order the radiator. He states that I can use the brass fittings for the tranny cooler, and the steel radiator cap as long as it is 13-16psi. Pretty surprising since their instructions specifically state not to use dissimilar metals...

    Worst Movie?

    to each their own, but I am stoked about the comic book hero movies. Spiderman happens to be my all time favorite superhero, so I'll definately have to disagree there.

    machined aluminum radiator (tranny cooler) fittings

    The OEM cap is 18psi. I went to the Ron Davis website briefly this morning, but didn't find a pressure rating. I'm sure I just didn't look in the right place on the site, I'll have to go back and dig some more. Based on the Novak conversion page, I should go with a higher pressure. Of...

    machined aluminum radiator (tranny cooler) fittings

    Thanks! I had forgotten to look for caps on Summit. {edit} ok, so I went on there, and found only 3 radiator caps for 18psi. Unfortunately, all of them are steel. I found several 17psi, and a few 19psi.......Obviously, the cap pressure rating is like a fuse amperage, so the lower I go, the...

    machined aluminum radiator (tranny cooler) fittings

    quick update: I surfed through summit racing last night. Did find some anodized alum fittings, but not the right size for my application. Still looking. I have a little time, so I'm not going to use the brass unless I just can't find the right size in alum. I'll be using teflon tape on the...
