The quick and dirty: CJ's have a narrower wheelbases, carbureted engines, simpler interiors. They have round headlights which are inset in the grill slots. There are several models of CJ's, most common are the CJ-7 and the CJ-5. The difference is in the body style and wheelbase I believe. The...

I'm alive, been busy as hell. School is really getting rough. We're all doing fairly well. Some people are taking it worse than others. It's still a hard thing to swallow even two years later. I saw some of the footage on a show the other night and my gut just about dropped out. Can't really...

For those of you who might of forgotten, today is the 2nd anniversary of the Va. Tech shootings. Take a minute and say a prayer for the families, send your thoughts out, or do whatever it is that you do. Thanks.

Cool. Learn to format your writing. Turn off the Caps Lock. Dutchman is way better.

Eddie, I think you're the first person to say something nice about my rig in a long time... :D

That is my biggest gripe and rant to everyone about them.

You don't have a clue how many brushes with rocks that thing has had...

No revolvers here... They're worthless, I'm sorry. My favorite pic ever, Paragon 2006

Shackle lifts work by replacing your stock shackles with longer ones. They provide some lift, but change the angles of your driveshafts and steering caster in the process. Small shackle lifts are fine (<1") but for any significant lift springs are the way to go. A one inch body lift is fine as...

Skyjackers can have a tendency to be stiff shocks, yes. I had great luck with Doestech 3000's when I was still on the road and SOA.

Do you even know what a moment is? If you don't, look it up. It will be the death of your steering. I don't give a flying rats ass what you've built, you're asking for trouble with an S arm in your steering. Here's the deal, I drew the s arm, kind of. Where the x is, is where the arm bends...

Did you crank the bolts super tight on your shackles? That'll do it.

Yes, histeer is the preferred method. There are companies that make solutions for the Dana 30 which don't require you to install flat top knuckles or replace your axles. Some are better than others, there is stuff out there though.

I really don't care what you make it out of. They're just a bad idea period. If you want me to go through the math for you I can show you why.

Glad you're alright. I used to think it was alright to drive after a few, then I had a rude wakeup and almost got a DUI. Set me pretty damn straight...

Thank you BH.

Everyone please take note, this is the wrong way to do your steering on an SOA. :roll::roll::roll:
