    I should help my brother more often

    They gave me a coupon book up front at the check out register because someone had taken an axle shaft out of the xj dana 44. So I used the 30% coupon for the 44 and the 15% coupon for my brother seats. Now I just need to find a passenger side axle shaft. The coupon book was a summer promotion...

    I should help my brother more often

    My brother needed some seats for his old Blazer so I took him out for his first trip to the pick n pull. We found some nice seats for him and while I was there I found one of the elusive XJ dana 44 rear axles !!!!! And with my 30% off coupon it cost me only $99. I should help him more often.

    still need it painted!

    I found a place called U-paint it, they rent their booth for $100/day which includes masking supplies. Call Ron or Linn at 975-7500 if that is in your budget.

    help, I made the neighbors mad.

    Unfortunately there were three that called me in. The deputy did say that the only reason they came was because of the call that claimed I did this all the time as a business. I do have some elderly neighbors that are sick and I really don't want to make them worse. I thought my filter system...

    help, I made the neighbors mad.

    Well I made a bunch of the neighbors mad at me the other night when I was putting some primer on my jeep. When I had just finished the third coat the county sheriff knocked on my door.

    12v questions: Power Wheels + Scooter=?

    Here is one way to do it. This wiring never allows the 24 V to get to the motor. If the switch is set to charge it just runs off of one battery. Dave

    12v questions: Power Wheels + Scooter=?

    You would fry the batteries putting that much voltage on them while wired in paralell for 12v. You can wire a switch(double pole double throw), to have a charge position and a run position. The charge position wires the batteries in series instead of paralell (24V mode) then you could use the 24...

    90 suburban 2x4 to 4x4 conversion

    I have done several swaps on the older style chevys. We swapped the entire bodies which isn't as hard as you might think. On the older ones there are about 10-12 main body mount bolts that hold the whole thing on. The wiring has several main connectors that disconnect the body from the wires on...

    gears

    When you go to 4.10 gears and above you have to change the carrier along with the ring and pinion. On your posi you can swap the internal posi parts into the new carrier which helps on parts. If you can find someone who has gone from a posi with 4.10 gears to a locker they would have what you need.
