This happened a while back and from what I remember, the engine died so the rig lost its brakes. A good purely hydraulic brake system will apply the same amount of brake force as one with power brakes.

In some cases it might not be a true comparison if the winch was made a while back when comparing to todays new on the shelf. Manufacturers are constantly changing parts and parts suppliers from year to year as well as introducing new models and discounting old ones. I know for example around...

If I had a rig and put an auto in it, I'd also want to make sure it had non power brakes. The idea of being on top of a crazy steep obstacle with an auto and power brakes and having the engine die / run out of gas whatever. At least with a manual you could leave it in gear and brake with the...

Aww yeah!

He He you all jest :D I'm pretty sure there's someone that would like to cut the fenders out on their Nissan crack finder and run the thornbirds whilst cranking the metal. Trust me, I've been to the swapmeet :D

If you have both sets, and 33's fit your rig, I'd sell them both and buy a decent set of 33's.

Yep. Between the pinion flange and the 4.7's the forces will be big.

I think the takeaway here is that there's probably a sweet spot for heat and wear and 35lbs may be it for his set up but its not a universal across the board setting.

LOL! Eyeballs is what I use. You'd think tire stores would offer this tool as an extra service up charge. Oh wait... over inflation sells more tires. Thanks LeSchnaab.

The chalk n dust technique as well as driving a dirty tire across a piece of paper might get you in the ball park but if you really want even pressure use one of these. http://www.tekscan.com/industrial/tirescan-system.html

Did you figure this out?

You did the SAS and then then started hearing the noise. Did you do anything else at the same time. Possibly rear lift, locker anything else? The front end work looks clean. From your description it sounds like a pretty significant interference and since you cant feel it in the wheel, had no...

Can you describe the noise better. So far is sounds like when you turn either direction from straight you hear a clunk clunk and can feel mechanical energy transferred through the body at the floor board. Is it always two clunks? Does the time interval between clunks change depending on how...

I got some time to poke around under the rig and see what's happenin. I looked back by the lift pump and didn't see anything resembling a fuel heater unless it's located between the frame rail and the tank where I couldn't really see. Rubber lines come out of the top of the lift pump and mate...

Burn it when your done :redneck:

Thanks, I cant remember how long it took. I think at least a couple days.

before and after

Here's some pics.

I cut out the entire inner fender and rolled a new piece of sheet metal and welded it in. Cleared 37's with 63" springs no problem. Some guys cut out the fender and leave it open on the inside. I think I saw someone once sprayed construction foam in there to seal the gap.

Thats where the sorta remember part comes in. It was the one where we ran cable and BYS in the snow. They were in the lot with their jackets on that had the flap that coved the DNR on their backs. I thought they were going to ride in someones rig but I dont recall seeing them on the trail.
