    Which political party are you?

    Yeah, well saying Anti-Bush is just as bad as saying Bush-Loving. I don't love any President. It's a job. He or she wanted it. They got it. Now, do the work...minimize the BS. I respect the office. (Like the military: I respect the office without feeling--one way or the other--for those who fill...

    Death sentences....

    Usually I find it's smart to avoid these kinds of discussions...especially since this is a Jeep Forum, not a legal one. This will probably be as useful as discussing religion, sexual preference, or the Iraq War...but here I go with my 2 cents. (Almost like saying "Watch this..." It's the kind of...

    86 landcruiser drive line in my XJ

    DITTO. I own a 79 Crusher: Great truck; Pulls out tree stumps; Drags buildings; and sounds like it's going to explode at highway speeds. Of course you could always changes out your diff gears, but you'd lose a bunch of torque. Tough as nails...like an M-Type vehicle, but not a good all-around...

    Homemade cowl hood

    My guess is you're not fording any water or running any bogs or serious mud with that hood,...right? I mean maybe if you sealed it and had a vacuum solenoid controlled vent that opened at the rear--like the old Chevy Cold Air Induction hoods, BUT you had a switch that could override it prior to...

    Diamond plated rockers

    Same issue here, plus I used to live right along the ocean...salt air, beach running and whenever we had a storm surge, you drove through streets flooded with salt water. Rust is an issue. Cover it, and it's a hidden issue. Try these links to MADXJ...

    Best welder for body work?

    Is Polish Potato Vodka required for sheet metal welding??? Will my welds get better...or worse? Could I use Luksusowa instead? Maybe grain vodka like Belvedere or Ketel One, or perhaps that French grape vodka impersonator, Ciroc. Let us know. I want to be sure I am doing the best welds...

    Grrr....Borla..

    Mine rusted in the same place in a little longer time, BUT... My Dynomax replacement rusted out in less than two. So I've gone back to a Borla. DJ

    engine preluber

    SO...has anybody tried installing one of these yet??? Trying to find ways to extend the life of my old mill, and eventually add to the longevity of a new stroker engine. Some other preluber links... Installation on a Dodge ram Diesel: http://dodgeram.org/ki4cy/preluber/Preluber.htm Moroso...

    Best damn snow vehicle ever

    Never gotten stuck in the snow with my XJ. I drove through the '93, '96, and '03 blizzards and never had a problem. In '93 I drove down to DC from AC, NJ. What should normally take about 2-3 hours, took over 5; but, I passed a lot of other cars & SUVs spun out and otherwise stuck in the median...

    Water Proofing the Motor...

    I'm no mathematician or IT geek, but I'm guessing you're referring to Fuzzy Logic. "IF X AND Y THEN Z" kind of stuff? That's as deep of a guess as I can come up with on a Monday. DJ That is, unless the fuzz is on your teeth?

    Question, Do you guys know what the hell this thing is?

    Well, until you broke it off it was how our agency tracked your movements. Ever since the chip in your neck went on the fritz, that "ceramic hockey puck" was all we had to use to predict the next UFO landing site. No reason to panic. A large black sedan should be pulling in front of your house...

    Mean Green starters and alternators

    I have both the Mean Green Starter & Alternator. Very happy with both. Wish they were cheaper, and the alt made a few more amps; but, they have given me 4+ years of uninterrupted service. I went thru 4 OEM Hitachi starters prior to that. The salt water eats'em up; most never made it out of...

    What kind of brew?

    I'll drink most anything that contains alcohol, but given my choice... GUINNESS. Since I enjoy freedom from incarceration, I have retired Mr. Jack Daniels. DJ

    SEMA Commander

    A little too close to NAMBLA for my comfort. Nope, guess I'm not gonna be a Commander customer. ;) DJ

    stroker question

    So why is it that Comp doesn't recommend these cams for fuel-injected engines--the X4254H grind you have and the X4262H grind that Golen uses in their 4.6 litre? Comp lists the X4250H-13 for FI engines. It has somewhat less lift and duration than the cam you are using. Does your idle have...
