Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Anyone think of a reason I would care about balljoint vs kingpin on a 60 if I'm not doing high steer? I can't.

I think the only downfall(IMO) is the lack of tube on the left side.

Jeep is now on its way to get inspected. Should have it back this time tomorrow night with a sticker, at which point I'm fully legal again.:thumbup:
I'm probably going to be building a Megasquirt for my buddy's miata eventually and I considered trying to modify/replace my carbs and do a custom FI swap on the motorcycle. In the end I decided against the motorcycle thing, at least until the carbs need cleaning/rebuild again.

Where did you get your o-scope and how much if you don't mind me asking? And is it analog/digital or no? I've looked for them a few times but always end up bugging my professors at school that they should sell me the old 16 channel digital scopes that are currently sitting unused in the labs.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
That's true of some KP axles too, IIRC Rob's, Colin's, and a few others are like that. I paid $150 for it. I'm not willing to add $400+ to the price I will pay for an axle just to make it so I don't have to be as careful welding a single mount tab on.
EDIT: Scott, I get them at swapmeets, in dumpsters, etc. I had 9 60MHz dual channel analog scopes at one point, all slightly broken. Fixed and sold about half of them over the years, I still have a few left. I also have a 4 channel plug-in module style tektronix that's good to 500MHz, a big old vacuum tube tektronix (RM565 I think) that's only kept around because it looks awesome and makes a decent coffee table, and a handful of Tektronix 465A and 465Bs that need a little cleaning and fixing. I think I have less than 200 bucks into the whole lot. I buy/procure scopes the same way I buy jeeps - in large quantities, as total worthless basket cases. Whichever one is suited to the job at hand (and/or is least broken at the moment) is the one I use.

The mid-90's BJ60's have roughly the same amount of tube exposed as the late 80's/early 90's KP60's. Plently of room for a coil bucket and stuff.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
oh yeah. Ross, any chance you would want to help me narrow a 60 in exchange for large quantities of beer? :eyes:
I might want to narrow a rear 60 too. I haven't made up my mind on that yet.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Said front BJ60? How narrow? Its pretty easy, I could narrow a long side down in a day I bet.
A rear would take a little more, preferebly an alignment bar too if you wanna cut the spindles down. Or you could jsut sleeve it and get it straight enough.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
My only argument for narrowing a rear axle is that I have two rear 60s in my yard, but I can always solve that problem.
EDIT: Ross, yep - same balljoint 60. Aiming for roughly stock width, it came out of a 97 F350. Tubes are fairly rust free.
I was just thinking about that. I guess I should hit the junkyards and see what I can find. Aiming for roughly stockish width.

The 98 whenever I build it (I'm refusing to start until Ross finishes his build)? Fullwidths all the way.
it's going on the MJ and I am not running fullwidths on the MJ.

So why are you running a D60 then? For 35" tires?
You'd be retarded.
