hmmm we crossed the Delores and barely got the undercarriage wet. I guess timing an location are all important

only 6 states but they are big states. Now my CJ-5.....about 20 or 25....

Not sure this is the right forum but here goes anyway. My speedo quit working, I assumed it the cable and dig out my replacement cable and start to fix it. the old cabe is fine, I tak eboth ends loose and if I spin one end the other follows suit so I think bingo, except for the blood Im golden...

Thanks, sorry I misunderstood who had what... I wish I still had my WT Cherokee, I think it would render this all moot as Id just sink some $ into it from the Scrambler sale and be done! I guess I need to keep my eyes open... So why is the WT SJ front end preferable to th emuch more available...

Thanks guys, You have a D60 in the front of the commando John? I didnt realize that. I think I can get away with a 44 for mine, finding one from a J10 is going to be the hard part.

OOps I forgot to mention affordable didnt I, I only hav e the one liver to sell for jeep parts and I just sold it for an engine... thanks though....

I think I might want to upgrade the front axle so I can change to a lower gear ratio and still have adequate tooth engagement. I currently have a Scout II rear D44 and intuitively it seems the mate to that would be my best choice but I understand Scouts have some funky alignment specs up front...

where is it located? Id agree that for a few K its probably worth it assuming the frame is solid.

OK my reman 4.0 l is in and running, Ive only got about 10 miles on it so far but so far its not impressive, oh well, it doesnt knock any more... I have some left over parts, I used the MOPAR kit for the bulk of it but I do have some parts leftover for yall who wanted the kit if I didnt reuse...

no but Im thinking I should have about now, when did that show up? have you heard when they might get started?

Hmmmmm. Thanks Mark. I will keep that option open..... NOT!

thanks again all, I have sort of come to the conclusion that I cant really go wrong, just different solutions. I THINK that Im going with a reman 4.0l the used one for 250 turns out to have been dropped and has holes in teh oil pan and distributor cap plus it looks a bit weathered with duct...

thanks Gents sounds like the consensus is to go with the 4.0L I'll look at your thread Spanks Thanks, so you were able to use the mopar CPS and bracket/damper trigger on the 4.0? Interesting. I was concerned about how to trigger the thing but it may be pretty much a no brainer. why did you go...

OK all, My 82 258 with a 4.0 head and MOPAR EFI conversion is knocking, the local shop thinks its a wrist pin but regaardless I need to address the 258 portion of the engine. Seems my options are to simply buy a rebuilt 258 and swap the head and EFI and put it in. Probably easiest but not...

I have stayed SUA but went with Alcan springs, shackle reversal and bilstein 5100 and the highway ride is outstanding, it flexes very well and is totally controllable even without the sway bar. A friend has soaked alcan etc but with a v8 and nv4500 vice my hybrid 4.0/4.2 auto and hes broken a...

I have a kayline half cab top that the vinyl is coming apart but is otherwise in decent shape if you decide to get into enclosed cabs and want it for a pattern. I have the doors too which are actually in pretty good shape as is but Im not sure I have to bows. Just let me know, probably directly...

Maybe so Barrys, I can only relate my experience, zero bids and zero interest on ebay, craigslist, etc. Of course, I live in the middle of nowhere vs the east coast. Good luck is all I can offer

I just got rid of over 40 years worth of magazines myself, the ones you identified and including PV4 and a couple that bloomed and died in the 1980s. there was no market for them at all, I finally gave the to a friend along with the file cabinets they were filed in. Good luck in your efforts to...

Given your intended focus on the street why bother with a SOA? DOne right it will cost you more that a set of quality springs under IMHO Ive seen a bunch of SOAs done with a ton of issues, Id stay under if it were me especially with the engine youre planning to use, SOA takes extra effort to...

satisfied with the cooling? realize any seat of the pants performance improvement or MPG boost?
