    Cj7 steering issues

    Straight , no toe on a straight axle. Just cuz ya talk to him everyday doesn't mean he did it right. Either fix geometry, sloppy parts are just man up and mob that botch thru the 30-38mph zone till she smooths out. Dont blame tires tho for a sloppy or crooked rig. I drive a chevy truck with...

    Cj7 steering issues

    Did you cut and turn the knuckles? It's hard to believe that you have 6 degrees and a decent front driveshaft angle with a WAGGY axle. Waggy axles were spring under and have one of the worst pinion angles around when used in a lifted or spring over app.

    Cj7 steering issues

    Some good advice in here and some bull**** to Lay them balljoints back at 4-6 degrees if you wanna cruise. Driveline will be ****ed unless you cut and turn knuckles. Halfassery drives good but wheels bad, or wheels good but drives bad. Wholeassery can drive AND wheel good. Spend some...

    winch talk

    Rope is for fishing. Where corrosion is a concern. You will never see rope on a skidder or a tow truck where people make a living with a winch. Rope is a cool novelty with HUGE retail markup.

    Do you use harbor freight tools

    Im going to disagree with the impact sockets. Maybe they are ok if you have a weak HF impact. I have a set that I put in a toolbag and used them with a gun once and turned two of them into BELLS. Flared them out like a cheap brakeline. JUNK.

    Do you use harbor freight tools

    Win some ya lose some. Read the reviews. If its a pile of **** (you should be able to tell by inspecting it, but if not,) the review comments will tell you the story. Or if its got low stars but just has one bad reason, the comments will tell you why its a POS and if its just a simple fix...

    Sold/Expired Need BBC engine.

    If you buy its private party, no warranty,,,, If its not a roller cam engine pull the intake and inspect EVERY cam lobe. If a lobe or two are missing, chances are they are now in the first second and a little bit in the third main bearing. Pull the pan and look for residue in line with any of...

    Sold/Expired Need BBC engine.

    Wrecking yard. Check the warranty and see if they have more inventory in case you need to warranty it. Stay AWAY from "Low Mile" RV engines. They usually have a half dozen rusty valves and seats from sitting in one position with a handful of valves open and rusting the valves and seats...

    Toyota Front Leaf Springs

    The Blue Beater thread was done using third gen rears. They are longer than first/second gens. For third gens the front hanger needs to be moved forward. For 1st/2nd gens the stock hanger location can be used. Stock hangers are garbage tho and if you dont have beefy mounts I would fab some...

    Tinned copper is better, but not if you cant solder worth a ****. I good mechanical connection is better than a ****ty solder connection.

    Anybody tapped an 03-06 Jeep steering box?

    Tapping a box is a waste of time without upgrading the PUMP. Unless you just want a slow ass steering system with a real good steering stabilizer. Your pump only has so much power/volume. Adding a ram is going to split up the fluid delivery. More fluid to the ram = LESS fluid to the box...
