    I'll start things off

    No Larry here. I am Andrew and live in shoshone Idaho. I have not done much with my Jeep since I moved to Idaho due to money or the lack there of. I am hoping to get back to it this summer if I don't sell it first.

    Adding power sterering to '82CJ5

    It is very worth it and very easy. You will need a Power Steering box, a pitman arm for a power steering box, a new end to your steering shaft that attatches to the box and a pump, and pump bracket. I most of my parts from a place in Sandy, Utah that sells used Jeep parts. The tricky part for...

    Okay, go ahead and let me have it...

    I went the opposite direction but have been pleasantly suppried. I went form a 2004 Chev Aveo to a 2001 Chev Venture (needed more room.) I have been supprised to be getting 25 mpg out of it even though it has 110,000 miles. It is funny because it was not to long ago that I swore I would never...

    what should i do

    That depends on what you want to do with it. What is your set up now? What kind of wheeling do you do? I have a '80 CJ5 with a 2.5" lift. I can fit 32" tires. I have a little rub when I have the swaybar disconnected at extreem articulation but it works pretty good and does not feel top heavy.

    What to Buy

    That Cherokee Idea is a good one. If I put in a Newer seat I could use the fold and tumble when the kids are not in. A little fab work and I could mount seatbelts to a roll cage. Boy the gears are turning now in my head. My kids are tall but I would think I would have a few years before they...

    Motocraft 2150

    It is on the drivers side. It has an electrical attatchment and a solenoid that looks like it pushes on the throttle assy. In a write up I have they call it an anti diesel solenoid. In the diagram that came with by rebuild kit id does not show it so I am not sure if I need it or not. If I...

    What to Buy

    Well I have had the terrible thought that It may be time to bid my Jeep farewell. I have not decided for sure yet but I am leaning that way. My wife and I decided several months ago that we are going to adopt and not only that but we would like to adopt a sibling group (brother and/or sister...

    steering box mount

    It is Almost a direct replacement I think you have to drill one or two More holes in the metal piece that goes between the frame above the box. I have also seen a brace that goes from the box to the right side of the frame to help keep the box from moving.

    steering box mount

    No but the 2 piece thing is a piece of crap. I put on a M.O.R.E. bracket when I did mine. It does not flex at all like the old bracket.

    Motocraft 2150

    I just finished rebuilding my new Carb. It is pretty simple. I ended up taking it apart then taking it to a small local shop and they soked it over night for me. It was a lot better than anything I could have done. I am now just waiting for my adapter to come so I can install. Can anyone...
