    Mudflap citation for the wimpiest jeep in the family

    I have been looking at the law to see what it says. What I found is that the law says if any vehicle's height (SUVs included) has been modified (lifts or bigger tires) it must have mudflaps that cover down to the center of the axle and the full width of the tire. So the fullsize trucks get away...

    Mudflap citation for the wimpiest jeep in the family

    My wife was driving on I-215 the other night when she was pulled over by a rather beligerant UHP trooper and given a full fledged must appear in court traffic citation for no mudflaps on our old Cherokee. He said it had too big of tires and must have mud flaps. It only has 30x9.5 inch tires and...

    cj7 heater help...

    The CJs that I have worked on don't have shut off valves in the heater hoses. I would look at a plugged heater core or not enough coolant. There are three cables on the dash, one cable diverts air to the defroster, another cable controls the hot air coming from the heater core, and the third one...

    Topic of Discussion TOD: Offroad preparedness

    Another thing to take along is a bar of hand soap. Not only can you use it to clean up with but you can patch gas tank leaks with it.

    Major tranny problem (TH350)

    The last time I was out at the pick n pull there was a 1980 blazer that had the th350/205 combo in it. Not sure if it is still there however. It was on the last row of trucks.

    DaveB's 84 Scrambler

    Thanks, black would look good but it might be a bit warm in the summer, silver could work. I want to go wheeling so I may have to live with faded white for a while.

    DaveB's 84 Scrambler

    I need to paint the hardtop on this thing so that I don't freeze now that the weather has turned cold. So should I leave the top white, or go with a grey ?

    I just TBoned a Caddy

    Nobody got hurt luckily. The speed limit was 40 and there was one of those speed measuring machines right where it happened and I was doing 38 before I hit the brakes. Not sure what I was doing when we hit. The skid marks were only about 6 feet long before the point of impact. The lady when she...

    I just TBoned a Caddy

    I just had my first wreck after 33 years of driving. I was heading down 45th south in my Cherokee when an 81 year old lady darted across the road in front of me in her 99 Cadillac DeVille. I locked it up trying to avoid her but couldn't. She now has a rear passenger section re-designed by Jeep...

    Windshield Wiper Motor Not working??

    Most of the ground wires are black and are tied to the engine block near the oil dipstick. There is also a braided strap that goes from the body to the motor which is usually near the back of the engine head. If you want to come by my house I have several wiper motors that you can come and try...

    Miller DVI

    I have the DVI and like it alot. It is very well built and penetrates the thicker metal I have used for bumpers and tire carriers. I have used both the 115 and the 220 modes and prefer the 220 mode. These bigger units are tougher to dial in for thin sheet metal than my little 115 V Lincoln was...

    Oil filling on clocked dana 300

    I have oil blowing out the air vent tube on my clocked dana 300 which I must have overfilled. Since the fill plug is higher than it is in the stock position, what would be the best way to get the right amount in ?. I could tip it up on the left side but I would need to tip it quite a bit, or...
