If you think a CJ5 was scary to drive, try a flat-fender with 1-1/2" wide springs and narrow axles! You just get used to it..

I don't get the alt rock either, completely out of my scope of music. One of my favorite songs is "Let's Go" by the Routers. Gotta go back to 1962 for that one. Good stuff that had heart... Though Steppenwolf and Van Halen are close on their heels. Tull is great too.

Welcome aboard!

258 is a great motor, usually only get pulled to do V8 swaps. My 2.5 sat for 10 years and runs great (when it runs), it's just everything else that had storage mortality.

Can't say if removing them helps the ride, but mine are gone too., they just didn't fit after the lift. Stock rides like crap, though @machoheadgames is a big fan of Old Man Emu stuff. I think the track bars probably have more to do with side impact rollover protection than anything else. That...

Me either! Though most of the vehicles I've owned have had auto's, I hate them, I just don't trust them. Auto-Magic, as I call them....Certainly not going to trust one with my life!

The same here, brother, the same here! Manual is always a plus, no disrespect to our automatic brethren here though! Just personal preference.

I would have a manual in my Merc if I could, there is just something about picking your own gears... A friend got a great deal on used Mercedes C-class that his brother couldn't sell in LA because it was a manual. Freaking Wimps!

Nothing like pluming to send you back to hardware store!

And none was intended, thx. Yup, central AZ and I Love it!

Welcome to the Grumpy old guy club! I feel your pain! Never thought I would be one of the Grumpy old farts, but here i am... Thank God my weather is better than your's. No insult intended.

Sounds like the heater box, there is a drain for the cowl vent on the firewall, but that's no guarantee it won't leak. But it could be leaking from anywhere, It is a Jeep after all, I know the windshield to cowl seal on mine is shot, but just running a bikini it hardly matters. Mine is of the...

Actually had an elderly neighbor tease me about the first Grand Marquis i bought, she said it was a "Grandpas' Car". But I just wanted comfortable, though I must admit the fuel economy surprised me (about 23mpg, closer to 30 on road trips). And comfortable it was, it certainly beat the shit out...

It did, but that was 30+ years ago and I only gave $300 for it, then proceeded to put 150k miles on it. Different story today, was looking at used Yotas some years back and was blown away at the prices. $20k for a 10 year old pu with 170K? OMG! Just had a friend retire and bought a new Tacoma...

I'm personally done with little shit-boxes, but the the best one I ever had was a Subaru 2wd DL hatchback. It was still getting 45mpg when I drove it to the junk yard, the car was just falling apart after 300k miles. It couldn't beat it's way out of a wet paper bag, but it was economical. No...

Exactamundo!

Can't beat Cloyes...I've used a few.

I've got a pair of seals that came with my block off plate, oddly enough they are for the CAD axle. Useless to me, if you're interested in them, PM me and I'll send them USPS, gratis. If you are replacing all the seals, I might also recommend adding tube seals. I'm doing them to keep sand and...

Got friends with coiled CJs', they're still Cjs'. But no matter what you do to a DJ, it'll still be be a mail Jeep, LOL!!!!:ROFLMAO:

Again, I'm not an expert, but case made.
