    Switching from CB to GMRS radios

    I was on the FCC site trying to get the license via CORES and they seem to be charging $70... I probably made a mistake answering one of the exemption questions or something.

    No fix that I know of that doesn't require rewiring the front circuit.

    Which axle has faster tire wear, front or rear?

    Even in rear wheel drive cars, the front tires usually wear faster (assuming they're the same size). As you said earlier, the front wheels do most of the braking/steering and that's what wears tires the most. When I worked in a tire shop back in high school, you could always tell if people...

    Which axle has faster tire wear, front or rear?

    In most cases, front tires wear faster (drag racing not withstanding).

    Remembering: where were you on September 11th

    I was working that day when a coworker came up and asked if I'd heard that a plane had crashed into the World Trade Center. I stopped for a second and asked him if it was a terrorist attack. I remember everyone near by stopped what they were doing and looked at me like I was crazy.

    My 84 was new to me in 88, but was doing oil changes on it since 84 (bought it from my neighbor).

    5 Bolt Hubs & studs

    I just took one of the bolts to the local Hardware Store and matched them up with some manifold studs. Did have to cut a little off one end so they didn't stick out too far. Used locktite in the hub end and added grade8 nuts with lock washers and have been good ever since.

    Noisy elec fuel pump? Too hot? Wrong location?

    To answer one of your original questions, fuel injected Wranglers came with in tank pumps from the factory. IMO, in the tank is the best place for the pump. Shortest pickup length and liquid cooling increases durability and being in the tank makes for quieter operation. Only real down side is...

    GM Electric Conversion Package

    A used Nisan Leaf has pretty much zero value as replacement battery cost more than the vehicle is worth. Once you brick a battery the vehicle is scrap (unless it's a Tesla Roadster or something).

    U-joint/yoke issue?

    I agree the U-bolt fastener is stronger than the straps. You do need to be careful not to over tighten them though.

    What is your go-to solution for carrying extra fuel?

    NATO Jerry cans and a jiggle siphon.

    Best battery

    Most small towns don't have an Autozone. None of the Autozone stores in my area STOCK Odyssey batteries of any size/group (just for the heck of it I called all 3 Autozones near me and asked). They will ORDER one though, and that can take a week or more to land in the store. This can be a huge...
