Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
the spicer ones i used on my 44 were high quality. i wouldnt trust moog, and i would spend the money on synergy ones for a 30 that gets wheeled.

I agree. Just go with Spicer. The only thing about the Spicer ones is that they don't make them oversized (like the Moog ones) so if your inner C is larger than stock then they won't press in with much force.

Certain sizes are having the trunions outsourced. The caps/bearings/seals/etc are still USA but some of the crosses are Mexico or China.

Meh. It was a low speed event, no drama, just a bunch of tire scrubbing to lurch it into a parking lot.
Of course the few miles before were on a twisty canal road taking a backway around highway traffic, which would have been a far worse scenario. It popped apart hitting the dip before the crown crossing the highway, as I was leaving a red light. Literally 5 mph.
Fail pic attached.
And yeah the Holley literature gets way into that stuff too...I will say that I find myself paying attention to every little nuance of the way the 5.9ZJ runs now. :laugh: Knowing how all that stuff works is pretty interesting to me.
Never knew, for example, that the idle air has a 'park' value that it automatically goes to as soon as TPS% is greater than zero, which keeps the engine from stalling when you let off the gas completely. It won't take over again until the engine drops below a certain RPM, at which point there's a set ramp time to reattain idle speed. If the 'park' value lets it run at a higher RPM than the set point it'll never trigger that ramp and leave you with a hanging high idle. Too low and it'll stall out on throttle lift before the ramp can take over. Now every time I hear a car start and idle funny all this crap is the first thing I think of.
Idle tuning, in general, is way more complicated than I thought. PID loops and shit. Brought me back to my control systems classes pretty quick. :laugh:

I went with moog HD's from napa in my 44 in 2008. They outlasted the rest of the axle. And everything broke in that axle, except bj's.

Check your coil or distributor cap I replaced these and mine quit doing that.

I'm sure William Watkins has to pay girls to hang out with him too.

I plan on being there assuming my jeeps still alive.
Which brings me to my next point. Can I run with low powersteering fluid to work? I have a pin hole and will be replacing the line after work.
