Thanks Joop :beer::beer: No welder :redface: so it's off to get some JB weld.

pics added.

I just found a crack in my exhaust where the pipe exits my Cat. Looks like the weld cracked. There is not any pipe between the crack and the cat. Any ideas as to weather or not this could be welded? I'l get a pic up later (the wife took the camera :mad:) Thanks!!

Those look nice :cool:. I've given this idea a lot of thought. I'm still on the fence. It looks like zooks have similar body mounts to the jeeps. I'm worried about transferring vibrations from the frame to the body.

:haha::haha: you caught me. I can't figure how to get a bolt back there:mad::mad:. I took off part of the inner fender to see how much room I had in there. There isn't very much room to work. :booo:

Be kind this is my first attempt at building anything out of steel. Does this look like enough bolts? This is a piece of 3x5

Thanks all!! When I had the belt off I made judicious use of a can of wd40. It was easier to not get any on the belt. I'm keeping the wd40 in the jeep for now. Drove it to work today. No squeals. Left most accessories off. Voltage stayed steady at just under 14. Mabey the jeep just...

Yup we keep a set of jumper cables in all of our vehicles. It only takes getting stuck in an inconvenient place once to become a believer. Thanks for the help.:cool: I'll run it around town for a while. Any trips to the hills to play in the snow are out until this gets sorted out :eeek:.

Guy seemed to know what he was doing. Not that I would know the difference :haha: but he didn't fumble around or look lost. I haven't a clue how old it is. I bought the jeep a year ago. it's a Denso (sp) 90 amp. I don't thing it's the orig. The wife is starting to pester me for buying a...

UPDATE: Autozone tested the alternator and gave it a pass. Got a dying cheap hygrometer and checked the battery - pass. At least all the balls floated to the top per the instructions :eeek:. Put everything back together and tightened the belt a bit tighter then it was before. No more squeal...

I'm think it's tight enough. I've got about 1/2 inch of play in the longest span. I don't have the tension meter tool critter to check it with. A buddy of mine who's had a number of CJs checked the tension and gave it the ok.

Cool. More pennies left for other parts.:redneck: Will I destroy anything if I drive it to and from work until the weekend?

Thanks JOOP :beer::beer: Now the next question is stay with the stock 90 amp or jump up to a 140 amp in anticipation of more electrical accessories. Or is that way overkill?

I'm pretty sure it's built in the alternator. If it was separate the regulator would be much easier to change in the dark and rain. :mad::mad:

Had that annoying squeaking belt. Just put on a new one last weekend. While I had the belt off I spun each of the pulleys and they moved freely. Drove it Sunday for 100+ miles no squeak no problems. Tuesday it starts squeaking again. Only the sound is different. Less rubber squeal and more...

WOW!! Thats very nice. :awesomework:

You and I are in the same boat. I got my 95 YJ last year, and am also on a tight budget. The first thing I bought was a set of 30" BFG All terrains. Great tire, but I will go for the mud terrains next time. Probably going to 32s or 33s in the future. The second mods were recovery points...

Thanks. :beer: I think I'm going to wire them to my parking lights and skip the high beam cut off thing. What has me really confused is the wire that goes from the switch to 86 on the relay then to the - on the battery. Not sure why I can't just ground them both to the body.

[FONT=Arial]Help! I

Sucess!!:clappy: Not sure if it was a bubble or the T-stat. Since I have no idea when the last T-stat was put in I swapped in a new one. I put as much coolant in as I could before I put the t-stat in. Fired it up. Watched the temp rise to 210. Got nervous. Then the t-stat opened and the...
