    Report Field Trip to Teraflex

    I needed to stop by Teraflex this morning and get some parts for my jeep, so while I was there I took some pictures of what was happening in the shop. Teraflex is always full of cool projects. And I don't know why I did not take photos of the new JK's in the parking lot. But here is what I...

    I need direction

    Sounds like you need a different platform to start that project. Your old CJ has an 81" wheelbase right? And a C-Channel frame. Sounds like a lot of work to box that frame, and get 2 feet more wheel base when you could just start with a YJ and get much closer to your goal. Also I don't see a...

    1" AN wrench

    Field Trip to Ben Hanks Racing

    Looking for some brackts and rumor about a cool scrambler at Ben Hanks I stopped by this morning for a few minutes. The front of the shop was quiet, all the worker bees were busy in the back making some cool things. Every time I am in there I see a mass of cool projects all going on. This...

    another new guy

    That looks like all the parts you need. But I would not pay that much. I would expect to pay: $30 for a junk yard carb (just get the right one) about $20 for the adapter and gaskets $20 for a rebuild kit Then plan on a new air filter assembly, breather, scrap parts to make the...

    another new guy

    Welcome The carbs on those are not terrible. And they are easy to rebuild even if you have never done one before. $20 for a rebuild kit and one evening and you will make that old carb work much better. But there are better options and there is a reason many of them get replaced with...

    RME Weight loss Challenge

    I will say "no" but not officially. I did not start running or anything, but at the same time I was not lazy. I started to take the stairs or a walk at my lunch instead of drive the car. Park in the back of the walmart parking lot and walk a little further. Just looked for excuses to walk...
