That's a beauty!

If you go to the trouble of having one custom made, I'd ask if it can be made of heavier stock (thicker wall) than OEM.

Unhappy Jeep dealer -

Thanks for the info. It seems Poison Spyder has discontinued their aluminum corner armor for the Scrambler (still listed on their website to order, but they will cancel the order), so I guess I won't be ordering from them.

Many manufacturers offer discounts occasionally. Wondering if anyone knows if PS does as well? Their checkout page has a place to enter a coupon code (which got me wondering if it would be worth it to wait for a while before ordering).

I guess it was possible for them to paddle over and help. (y) On another note - anyone know if salvage rights are the same in a river as they are at sea? :devilish:

Don't think they slide across to install. IIRC, they drop on from above and you need to get the lower/rearward end of the caliper to hook in place before you align the mounting holes.

The local Dealer has about 5-6 of them on the lot (I think a couple have already sold). I see one on a test drive now and then. They are a lot longer in person than I'd expected from photos. Saw an interesting video on YouTube of someone already doing a Hellcat swap (takes some fortitude to...

From the factory, the multi function valve (somewhat inaccurately referred to as a proportioning valve by some) would be located on the inner frame rail just below the brake master. It's not a very good location so some folks move them up next to the master cylinder. Not my photo, but this is...

Could be an issue with the multi function valve. If you open the bleeder, will it release the caliper or does it stay locked? If it stays locked, your issue is prbably in the calipers or multi function valve, if it releases, I'd look at the master.

Mine gets me to ALL the gas stations...

I've been eyeballing this one ($8,500); https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/georgetown-1974-j10-jeep-gladiator/6905586063.html

Score! Is it asking too much ask what you got it for?

I used to tow a snowmobile trailer. It was only about 2,800 lbs. fully loaded, but pulling it up the high passes was more than the 258 could manage (my excuse for the V8). It was a handful when the roads were icy, but otherwise did great.

Like Belizeit said, you can't leave bare metal there or it will rust. Shouldn't need anything special if paint is in good shape.

If you remove the mounting bolts for the radiator and put a 2x4 under it to lift/hold up a little it helps access the hose fittings a little.

In most cases a suspension lift will increase ride harshness. Old Man Emu (OME/DAKAR) makes a 2.5" kit for Jeep YJ that measures closer to 3" of lift for most CJs. Since they are made for a JY, there is some additional work /parts/money required to install them on the front axle. CJ front...
