    AMC V8 Oil Leak

    Made a tool to extrude holes into my valve covers for the rubber breather grommets. Need gaskets to finish it and then hope it helps.

    AMC V8 Oil Leak

    So I found out last night my buddy who was helping me a couple of weekends ago used my oil filler breather as a crutch and pushed it down farther over the tube (it is open element crank case breather over the fill tube). I took it off last night to see if it had suction at idle, and when I went...

    AMC V8 Oil Leak

    After calling DUI and reading on their website it sounds like crankcase pressure is driving oil up through the distributor. I guess I will put some breathers in the covers to see if that helps. The motor was rebuilt years ago and installed for the first time 4-5 yrs ago. Perhaps the rings...

    AMC V8 Oil Leak

    Has anyone had an AMC V8 hemorrhage oil at the top of the timing cover distributor area and run down driver side of the front of the block? Not a drip a lot of oil enough to pool in the valley of the timing cover. I can crawl all weekend no issue, drive 20 mile trip or less at 60 mph no issue...

    2018 Scrambler Owners Association National Scramble - SMORR, Seymour, MO

    Is Brandon going to have camping available Wed evening? He usually doesn't open until Thursday so didn't know if this was special. Also in the registration it asks for trails you want to run each day. The scenic runs are those the easy trails in the park, a drive through the country outside...

    IAFFCJ 81 Scrambler

    I did H1 wheels on mine, it is a bunch of work to mount them up. The inserts will go in the new tires a lot easier. Set your inner wheel on an upside down 5 gallon bucket and lay tire and insert over it. It will help. I tried using dynabeads to balance them and didn't have much luck. I...

    IAFFCJ 81 Scrambler

    Will it fit through your garage door or do you have another place to keep it once the 42's go on? Mine is on RE1.5" SOA springs and 37" tires and the soft top bow keeps me from going through a standard garage door opening. I had to take tires to 4 psi to get it in. If I had the 1/2 cab on...

    Switching from CB to GMRS radios

    I got a Midland MXT115 for Christmas. Would going to a 3db or 6db antenna be worthwhile? Does it help with range, signal quality, both etc. I have been trying to read up on it, but without going through HAM study guides I am not getting a good idea of what the benefits are vs the antenna that...

    MHJC All 4 Fun Silverton 2018

    MHJC All 4 Fun even is going to be in Silverton this year 7/28-8/4/18. We've been to Silverton/Ouray/Telluride many times so know the area really well. Never really been to the All 4 Fun though, looks like it would be fun. Anyone going? Anyone ever been to one before and tips or things we...

    Anyone bought a Rhinyl Products top from b-dco.com? old Kayline patterns?

    I bought one of their tops. The side windows zip in and Velcro around the door frame area. Rear window zips and locks in with tailgate to the frame you screw to it. It seems to work well. My issue is with the doors at the curve I have a gap. I really haven't figured out why there is one or what...

    Sorry for my ignorance. I saw videos of his Scrambler and figured he was on here, but didn't really think that through when I posted.

    2018 Scrambler Owners Association National Scramble - SMORR, Seymour, MO

    I highly recommend the cartotracks map that is available for SMORR. We have been going for 4-5 yrs there now and used the paper map. Since they partnered with cartotracks and made the map we followed the instructions and downloaded it. It is fantastic for finding your way around. Color coded...

    Switching from CB to GMRS radios

    I didn't know about the midland MTX radi'so until I saw this all popup. I bought the GTX1000 hand held a few months ago. I take it the MTX versions are same basic function but the extra features and repeater use. Do you know how they differ from the rugged radios or the Chinese version they...

    Switching from CB to GMRS radios

    Does antenna placement matter? Can I put it on the tab I currently have my CB antenna mounted to or on my tire carrier behind the tire? Both of those locations will be basically at the top of the bed of the jeep and not above the cab. Behind the tire will be blocking the antenna as well? I...

    Any Jeep pics you want to share?

    Its the b-dco noted in post after this one. I can't remember the cloth. I think it was saddle sailcloth. It was expensive, but I really liked the 3rd bow vs best top and that I could get it in other colors than black.

    Scrambler UpGrades - Pappywaho

    Do you happen to have a better picture of how the anti-wrap bar is tied to the frame or a cross member? I am trying to figure out how to stuff one of those in there on mine and not have to redo my exhaust. I thought about going off one side of the frame rail, but not sure there is space or...

    My De-Rustification Project

    Try a slide hammer. That is what I had to use to get my Dana 300 output seal out. Can drive a screw into seal, and pull on it.
