1041369 The alternator is only supposed to replace what juice was used to turn the starter and fire up the vehicle, and run accessoriesafter it is running . Against contrary belief it won't charge up a dead battery. Sometimes if you charge it overnight, it will come back to life. This is...

1041370 Also , you can take a 9-volt battery out of a radio or whatever, that is too dead to run the item, and hook up an ohm meter and it will still read 9-volts. You should check the resistor though, they cause a lot of problems when expose to heat and water , mud , etc. Let me know...

1041371 If you look in the new JP magazine, Sept. 2002 , it has an article that you need. It covers swapping a Dana 300 to a YJ and turning it upside down for a drivers side front axle . Excellent article on the new fluid levels and what to watch for. According to the author the swap is...

1041619 Thanks a lot. I really appreciate the information. It is good to hear first hand answers from someone who has done it ,and been there. The manufacturers have salesmen who try to tell you what to do and they have never been in a 4WD. Thanks, JAckal [addsig]

1043144 Hey DUDE, Sometimes you can hit the bolt with a small hammer and it will seat the rust in the threads, or create a slight opening for penetrating oil. It will also close the Torx heads in so that your bit might grip better. Don't hit it too much or too hard or you'll never get the...

1043297 Hell I wave at other jeeps all the time and they just look at me real stupid like. I've found out that the only Jeeps that wave back are the modified ones. If you see a red-neck-hairy-country-looking-good ol' boy and he is driving toward you ,and checking out your jeep ,wave at him and...

1043299 I didn't take any pics ,( didn't want to get the wifes new digital camera greasy, although she would have taken the pics if I had asked her???), but I can remember the short cuts. I'll write them down while it is fresh on my memory. I have a AMC 20 AXLE, I used the stock 2-piece...

1060288 Morgster I am ashamed. The word "want" doesn't have an apostrophe "T". That is (wan't)??????. Where did you learn this :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D Evidently you don't know about the headers either, so stick to your electric fan topic. Just don't get the extension cord caught in the...

1060691 Thanks for all of the info guys. I think I may run the fenderwell style. This way I can weld-up the mufflers and exhaust at home , and not scare the neighbors. Thanks a bunch, Jackal :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D 8-) [addsig]

1062450 I wave at anything with larger than stock tires, a big front bumper, or any kind of big accessory lights. usually they wave back. It doesn't matter if it is a Bronco, Blazer , Jeep, or Dodge, any kind of pick-up. All of the newer stock Jeeps don't even look. If a guy is driving an...

1062916 If it looks like a duck ,walks like a duck, quacks like a duck , IT MUST BE A DUCK! When someone doesn't like how they are perceived change it. $%tchin' about it is the same as cryin' to mommy and daddy. There are to many kids tryin' to make their place in a mans world. Don't force...

1062917 I have a better idea besides you learning to spell and use proper punctuation, Green 97 or whatever. You ride around with me for a week. Everytime someone doesn't wave We'll run them down and I'll whip their a$$. And I'll whip yours, too! after a week of this, let's see what your...

1062955 Way to go, Goldot. It seems that when someone complains about stereotypes, it hits close to home. In a large group of men , if a speaker were to say bad things about men who wear pink panties under their suits, the only ones that take offense are the one who wear pink panties under...

1040253 I have a 78 cj7 with the 3spd stick transmission. When I bought it the clutch linkage was all worn out and sloppy. I installed new parts and adjusted it , but still there is a slight chatter when I take off. If you rev up the engine , or ease out and ride the clutch you don't notice...

1040378 Hello, I recently bought a 78 cj-7 . The owner said the rebuilt motor had less than 20k miles on it , but he didn't know anything about cars. Well, the radiator cover says it is a 232, but it has a 2bbl Carter carb and intake. Is there any way I can identify this engine without taking...

1040748 I need a rear hatch for my 78 cj7 hardtop. The last people that had mine left it sittting on the ground and it rusted out. Let me know if you have one. Thanks, Jackal [addsig]

1041367 I have a 78 cj 7 with the amc 20 rear axle . I was wanting to install a Lockright or one of the other new mini lockers. Can I use the stock axles? Has anyone in here done this, so that they can tell me of any problems I might run into? Later on my plan is to install one-piece rar...

1041569 I have a 78 Cj7 and I am told I can't run a Lock right locker in the front without power steering. If I do, they reccomend an Air or electric locker. I think I would be able to steer it with a Lockright locker. Can anyone tell me if they have done this? I have lockout hubs, so it...
