    Belly pan / skid plate

    The-Boss - Thanks, that is what I had in mind. I also saw where goatbuilt is using a high strength steel plate that looks to be formable. Their skid plates have several tight raduis breaks. I am looking to do something similar to yours though where the vertical tabs wrap around the outside...

    Belly pan / skid plate

    What are you using and what are your attachment methods to keep from fighting distorted bolt heads? For those of you running AR plate did you happen to bend any of it during fabrication or weld it? I was wanting to run 1/4" AR400 but I wanted to bend tabs up along the outside edge that I could...

    To roset or not roset. That is the question.

    Those joints will probably only see compression forces. If the splice was on a steering link or suspension link that may see tension is the only reason I would use a plug weld.

    Rear mounted radiator plumbing?

    I ran 1.5" aluminum tube with -16 an fitting on each end. Short flex hoses between tube and radiator/engine. Hope it works out well. It at least looks clean.

    SPIndle nut tech?

    Second vote for using 14 bolt spindle nuts. Much easier to deal with.

    Tow rig Suspension and Axle upgrades questions (4th Gen Dodge)

    Re: Tow rig Suspension (4th Gen Dodge) Could of swore that I laid under several C&C 5500s on the dealership lot as I was looking for solutions to my bent 9.25 AAM and they had a different manufacture casting mark than AAM. Still think the 9.25 AAM is crap based on my experince with it and if I...

    Tow rig Suspension and Axle upgrades questions (4th Gen Dodge)

    Re: Tow rig Suspension (4th Gen Dodge) When I rebuilt my fourth gen from a wreck I really wish I would have just put a new super duty front axle under it. The dodge axle ended up being bent and I had Ryan retube it to correct bend and put Carli ball joints in. I feel like Would have been much...

    fuel cells

    Just put the Goatbuilt plastic cell in my jeep with the GM internal pump setup. Turned out great. After I had already purchased it though I was poking around in the junkyard and looked at a late model GTO and they have a pretty nice factory tank / fuel cell in the trunk with internal pump...

    Tow rig Suspension and Axle upgrades questions (4th Gen Dodge)

    Re: Tow rig Suspension (4th Gen Dodge) If you gained that much with the body mounts you will definelty clear 37s. I am pretty confident I could get 37s on mine depending on how aggressive the side lugs are and assuming I stayed on stock wheels. The Carli arms are +5/8" longer and the...

    Truck rims on trailer

    I have a Circle W low deck goose neck and trick tried ram chrome steel 8 lug (17") and silverado aluminum 8 lug (16"). Both of them had too much back spacing the back side of the tire would hit the inner fender before you could even get the wheel on the studs.

    2000 cherokee wont start

    Definitely somethin wrong with new fuel pump. Pulled line loose at fuel rail and it would barely put out a solid stream. Put old pump assembly back in, pulled the crank position sensor, cleaned connector and blew the ignition switch out. All seams well now.

    2000 cherokee wont start

    It turns over fine all the time it just wont fire up unless you pour some fuel in throttle body. I'll put ignition coil on list just incase. Thanks

    2000 cherokee wont start

    Thanks for the tips. I replaced the whole assembly, pump, regulator and sending unit. Not sure how it could be ignition coil, since it cranks when you pour fuel in the throttle body.

    2000 cherokee wont start

    2000 Cherokee wont start unless you pour some fuel in the throttle body. Once it is started it runs fine. Thought for sure it was the fuel pump/regulator assembly so bought a new Bosch assembly. Pretty much the same response with new one installed. You can hear the pump kick on and then shut...

    Rock Crusher front axle caliper bracket question

    The flat bracket is designed to work with the Rockcrusher / Solid hub. The Rockcrusher / Solid hubs wheel mounting surface is located at a slightly different place on the hub compared to a stock hub. This changes rotor position in relation to the caliper bracket.

    Solid Kingpin Knuckles WTF

    Are you positive they are Solid and not Rockcrusher? I had some rockcrusher knuckles and RPM offroad had a whole batch that the machining on the lower king pin was off on. There were other issues that led me to eventually getting my money back and buying Solid (no issues). I had a thread on...

    Hows everyone getting the air pocket out of their LS with rear radiator?

    May have missed it, but have you tried raising the rear end up high and letting the air move to the radiator and venting/filling at the radiator with the rear raised?

    Bent 14 bolt spindle????

    Listen to Ryan, he does great work. He retubed a 14 bolt for the rear of my buggy and he retubed the 9.25 AAM front end that is in my 2011 Ram (bent in wreck). I have not met a nicer more honest guy to deal with.
