I have an older Fluke 87, don't know if it has the duty cycle measurement but I'll look. I'll have to look into the AFR gauge. Is there a way to use a scope on the O2 sensor and figure out the AFR ? I just looked up the specs on the AFR gauges and the stock O2 sensors and I would guess that the...

Well it sounds like I'll be busting out my oscilloscope. It would be nice if my scope could run on battery power so I could run it while driving under a load. Any idea how long it takes for the new trims to be calculated ?

Well I fired up the 4.6 stroker this morning and it went well, no problems that I know of and no leaks. I upgraded the cooling system with a new aluminum radiator, high flow water pump and thermostat housing and home made shroud. It never got too hot. I got smoked out a bit from the "ceramic"...

I didn't have a build thread on it but it is similar to the Commando. You can always drop by and take a look if you want. I thought I wasn't adding that much weight when I did the Scrambler but the lack of power going up hills says otherwise. Hopefully the new stroker motor will fix that.

I need an air shroud for my jeep CJ8. Ia m having trouble finding a shroud for the 4.2 engine but I believe after doing some measurements that I could modify a chevy air shroud from a mid 80's or older truck with the big block engine. So does anyone have either the CJ one they want to sell or a...

So that's where the new Cherokee came from....

My son's MJ, and both of my Jeeps (CJ8 and Commando) have e lockers up front and back. We really like them and have had no problems with them.

I need to see if I can get the time off work. I have 5 different vehicles that now qualify.

Its after the Rusty Nail split if you are heading up the trail. It is dug out quite a bit more than this old picture.

I'm not in a big hurry since the Commando is out at my daughters house since their Jeep is in my garage getting long arms installed.

That would be good if there is enough left over. I would need to finish up the prep on the flares for the final smoothing of the welds. As for size here is a link to what they look like: http://www.rme4x4.com/showthread.php?66704-The-family-Commando-build-project/page5&highlight=commando+project

I need to get some paint on my Commando's removable metal fender flares. I could smooth them out and paint them with regular paint but thought bed liner would be tougher and hold up better. Does anyone know of a tough bed liner that won't fade to a chalky grey in the sun ? Would shops that apply...

I would take them but I already have a parts washer and a couple of extra 8 lug rims.

Tin foil dinners are easy if you use the method I would teach my scouts.... cook it in the oven at home before you leave then freeze it. Stuff it in a plastic bag inside your sleeping pad to keep it cold. By the time you get to camp its thawed out and all you need to do is warm it up.

I did offer to help but they told me they had everything covered.

While doing Gold Bar and part of Golden Spike last Friday we got to witness how not to get a large group of people over the Gold Bar drop off. While I was waiting for my brothers to show up at the trail head a very large group of Land Cruisers came by. It was a mix of all years of Cruisers from...

I'm not sure the lower tank is big enough at the hose bib to make the hole larger.

I was able to find that they sell adapters for going between the two sizes but it would be nice to avoid more connection points that could leak.

The GM conversion radiator in my Commando sprung a leak so I decided to spring for a better Aluminum three core radiator. I found that these came in two varieties, one with 1.5" hose connections top and bottom and ones with 1.5" top and 1.75" bottoms. My Jeep uses the larger bottom hose so that...

I have plenty of spare 4.0 parts for 91-95 xjs and a 96 ZJ. On my CJ with a 4.0 I used TJ brackets instead so that the fan was centered. ZJ brackets will also center the fan.
