Not exactly the same, but my 89 tbi 4.3 has been below sea level at Death Valley to over 13000 ft on Imogene pass in Colorado. It has always started right up and ran well. Howells kit is based on the gm tbi setup. The only difference is some kits do not adjust timing for elevation like the...

Wow! What a beautiful top.

Excited to see what you decide on phase 2! I also added AC to my jeep. I used the Jeep air kit. Glad to see you got the sanden compressor. I got the original style, new, and it has started leaking after 2 years. AC does make the engine run hotter and the floors reflect more heat. To combat...

Thanks Scram Fam! I installed these and removed the Chinese LED lights. I like the look much better.

We went to Ouray and ran these trails plus Poughkeepsie. Was a great trip. Poughkeepsie isn’t as bad as some say, plus the “wall” is optional. I feel everyone should run Black Bear pass. It isn’t a hard trail, just need to keep your tires on the trail.

I will be there. Looking forward to it as I haven’t been to an event since Windrock in TN.

So sorry to hear this. You and your family will be in our prayers.

The 12 bolt isn’t a bad axle, just not the most common swap. It’s the next size up from a 10 bolt/dana 44 clone. I would assume you have the matching front from the donor vehicle as the truck 12 bolt is significantly wider than the Dana 30/amc 20 your jeep came with. I live up in Edmond...

I have a 44 front with an OX locker and a full PSC steering system with hydraulic assist. I ran without the ram for a month or so before building the mount. I really love the ram. It takes any shimmy away. Off-road I had the same issue as you. When locked you could get into a position where...

I agree with the Canadian! I made my NP241 shifter from scratch. You should be able to modify it without too much trouble. The older I get, the more I like keeping things lower.

I broke my HF vice the just like that changing u joints. I ground the paint off, heated it and mig welded it back together. Probably been holding for nearly a decade.

In the picture above it looks like the bottom hinge is angled a bit. You should be able to loosen the hinges and move them a bit to get the doors to close/align better. Rusty is looking great!

I think it would be pretty neat. As @CJ7Pilot stated, not sure on the accuracy it will have given the environment within the Jeeps dash. That said, its more for aesthetics than actual precise navigation. Being that you live in Texas factors like magnetic variation will be less noticeable than...

Those ARBs would be hard to beat in your current setup. Your future plan with tons gives you some options. Detroits are cheaper (than selectable lockers) and very strong. But I personally wouldn't run one in the rear on something that is street driven. I have a friend with a scout on a chevy...
