Yo Mike and others, While stuck in some wicked traffic on 520 on Friday afternoon, I watched at the transmission temperature and radiator temps got fairly high. I kept the truck in nuetral when not moving and once I saw the radiator temps rise above the standard 210', I turned off the AC...

Hi all, Just for grin's, I wonder if anyone has some real world data that can help a never-before-4linked type guy determine what quality and rating rod end one would need. I created a virtual mockup of a suspension setup using the Suspension Calculator that Triaged (Pirate) made. On the...

Post your most effective or favorite methods of cleaning grease both for parts that you can drop in a hot tank and for those that cannot (like a complete engine sitting in your truck for example.) Do you use engine cleaner, car wash, mean green, clothing detergent, uh.... pressure washer, TSP...

Do any of you successfully use one of the 3 or 4 link calculators found on the net to help you design your suspension? Are you happy with the results, or did the suspension calculator spit out a bunch of bunk? (no offense Bunk...) Check out...

What gets in the way when running stock hummer rims (not recentered) when bolted onto a 44, 60 front or 14 bolt rear? I hear the rims have major issues with the brakes. What are the solutions? Is it close enough to shave your calipers, a wheel spacer of some kind or do you have to...

Since we don't have a designated resource area, I'll post it in here. If you were looking for these kinds of switches, you can get them directly from the manufacturer (or re-stickerer as it may be). It has been a while since I used them, but they were good to work with and cheap...

This comes down to those with experience (aka: not I) with either single beadlock rims with a retaining ring on the outside or those who have bucked up and gone with a double beadlock setup. Are any of you peeling off the inside of your tire on your single beadlock rims? Under what...

Ok, I actually don't know anything more than what NWF's website says: http://northwestfab.com/blackbox.html Who's running these things and what forseeable drawbacks does this unit have?

Has anyone had any success or failures with the Bilstein coilovers? I thought they made some decent (normal) shock absorbers, but I have never seen anyone running they're gear.

Do you guys have some specs to zero in on a ram that would work for dedicated hydraulic steering? The first question is, is there anything even on the market that would last and be compatible within the PSI and flow rates created by a stock or aftermarket steering pump? Take this for...

I guess this technically be in the "garage" area... So, if I want 220V 60amps I need what? So I am looking to run approximately 100 feet of wire from the main breaker, down and underneath / through the floor joists in my house and outside either to my shed / garage (future location) or to...

Longer leaf springs giving you more articulation is a good thing in our little world. However, where is the point of diminishing return? How long is too long and such? It seems Deaver (http://www.deaverspring.com/BajaBushing.htm) and Alcan (http://www.alcanspring.com/orbit-eye.htm) are good...

I am not sure what is worse, the fact my toy is missing an engine, transmission, suspension and frame or that the toy Jeep (also shown) can run circles around daddy's rig! What does a father have to do to get a toy of his own (running) :redneck: ?

Have any of you sleeved your lower links on your 3 or 4 link suspension? or added extra re-inforcement to your links ala baja trucks.

Bobby Long - Local, but not on this board? I was tooling around the butt Pirate and saw a post made by "Longfield"... After realizing who and what company it was, I noticed that Bobby is out of Graham Washington. So where is he on the board? Lots of toyota guys here and all...

So, my daily driver is an 88 4runner. It is the 6cyl version with the crappy chain transfercase. While driving around town, I will now get periodic binding as the transfer case pops into 4wd. Maybe it is a case of crappy auto hubs causing the driveshaft to spin which in turn engages the...

I realize there are some issues regarding offset in terms of the steering center of the rim and some other dynamics. Aside from those, do Hummer rims (military) fit on a Dana 60 front axle? I imagine if running leaf springs, your tires would bump up against the frame / springs. What are...
