    Changing from 'me' to 'we'

    Steve, When I emailed you a few weeks back about setting up a recurring, monthly donation option, I was feeling like a leech. I would use public lands often but never show up for any service projects, or donate money. I felt like a good, responsible user, but not a productive user. I'm sure...

    91 Cherokee Laredo question serious

    My '91 XJ once started running terrible at higher RPM's... the more you pushed the pedal the worse it would run. Turned out to be a cracked hose on the fuel pump inside the gas tank. It was letting fuel leak out of the pressure line, but not enough to drop the fuel pressure unless you were...

    What would be your 'guilty pleasure' 4WD vehicle?

    Trophy trucks are neat stuff... but recreation is all about spending time with family and friends doing what you love. Seating for two just wouldn't cut it. I'd love to have a 4 seater desert buggy with a custom heavy duty IFS 4x4 setup up front. Something with about 24" of wheel travel and...

    Ideal shock lengths

    Okay, I just read my last post and I don't think it conveys what I'm asking here. Alright... - I'm not just going to bolt these on to stock axles using the stock mounting locations. I have some room to set it up how I want, as far as where I locate the lower shock mounts. - IF I fab...

    Ideal shock lengths

    That would have been great counsel to follow a week ago before I ordered the shocks! ___________ I already know what lengths I need - in fact I already have them... I determined the length by taking the Jeep out and flexing it with no shocks installed. I measured the lengths and found the best...

    Ideal shock lengths

    Okay, I'm building a '96 XJ with an 8.5" lift. I'm not interested in hearing how this is too much lift, or that your buddy's setup would work better so if that's all you have to offer, please move on. Most of my wheeling is in Moab, but I very much like going fast on desert roads and plan on...

    Labor day weekend in Moab

    Here are the kids getting ready to head into Green Day Here's how far they rolled it about 200 feet into the trail. High dive solo! And of course immediately after it, upchuck. Sadly, that's about all the good photos I have. We were too busy enjoying ourselves to take photos! Jared

    Labor day weekend in Moab

    We ended up starting Green Day while the bigger guys ran Coyote. We ran into this same group and ended up about 3 rigs back from this little buggy. There was a girl (sister?) who started complaining that she wasn't getting any time in the driver's seat, so her dad let her hop in. She...

    Moab labor day roll call

    Hey, I PM'd my contact info to a couple of you guys. I'd love to get to know/wheel with some more of the northern UT guys. I spend too much time in the classifieds and never meet people on the board. Feel free to PM me back with your own info. We'd love to share a burger around the fire if...

    Moab labor day roll call

    Have room for one more? We're going to throw a trip together this weekend for Friday - Monday. I'm in for some hard trails... I'd love to go do Pritchett if you buggy guys don't mind pulling a strap in a couple spots. Got a TJ on 34" swampers, one locker, a winch, CB, and most importantly I...

    ford 8.8 axles

    Here's a thought... do all 31 spline axles have exactly the same shaft diameter, even ones from different manufacturers and housings? I mean, 31 huge splines on a 2" shaft would be mucho stronger than 31 tiny splines on a .750" shaft. This is a question that has bugged me forever. Axle shaft...

    Teach me about full hydraulic steering.

    You mean this one Wayne? How much did you spend on the valve, lines, and fittings Herzog? That one way ram of yours sells for about $80 from the link you provided. Jared

    aussie locker

    Lunchbox lockers are great in front applications. Just be SURE your axle housing is straight. Mine was ever so slightly bent and it caused me sheer hell. http://www.naxja.org/forum/showpost.php?p=932946&postcount=1 Other than that experience, I love them. Aussies are supposed to be good...

    What I did over the Thanksgiving holiday......

    Good Job Marc! I'm considering painting mine with Rustoleum Protective Enamel. It's about the same as rattle can paint, but in quart/gallon cans to be used with a real spray gun. They have yellow. Jared

    Guys, I really appreciate all your hard work. I'm sorry I couldn't have been a part of it. Looks like a good time was had and we got some positive publicity for a change. Great work, Jared
