Have you tried pulling the spark plug? if it is stuck grab a breaker bar and gently tighten and loosen 2-3 degrees at a time until it starts coming loose. if it really is "fused" you can always break that sucker off drill it out and then use a helicoil. please look up how to do this on youtube...

a little late posting pics of the Kenda AT2's. they were about 50-60% the price of the bfg ko2's i had previously. So far they have been really good. they arent mud terrains or hybrids, but they did fairly well in mud on a small hill (here in super sticky texas mud). just spin them up. noise has...

Been running Kenda Klever at2's. they grip just as good as Ko2's. They also look good.

did a little welding and some grinding. didnt want to grind to thin, so a small amount of glazing putty and paint and she is good as new

I really appreciate your response. i think it might be how i reassembled the latch mechanism right where the 3 bolts are in the last photo. i couldnt get the thing to unlatch no matter how hard i pushed that lever. As you can see i had to go about this a different way and for all those who...

Alright so i did the new motor in the actuator thing today. all locks work amazing now. However, i went to close my rear passenger door and it wont un latch (mechanical). right where that latch catches that u joint on the door sill. any advice for unsticking this. i have tried pulling the door...

pulled vaccum for a total of 1 hour then let sit for 30 min. single stage pump from the ol' hazard fraud.

fan is running well.

yes pulled vacuum and let sit for 30 min and returned to the needle right where i left it. hooked up the r134a purged the line and then opened the low side valve.

Recently replaced ac compressor, expansion valve, and condensor. i am having issues while the vehicle is parked and the ac is on and it doesnt blow cold air (5-10 degrees cooler than ambient). once i get moving it gets cold and if i drive for a few hours it starts getting warm again. my manifold...

Yessss great story!

Thought I would throw this out there...I am trying the Kenda Klever AT2's. 4k miles on them so far and they have been awesome. on the road they are about as loud and have as much grip as bfg ko2 (had these previously). they worked decently in the sticky mud of east texas. you know the kind that...

lol dont let a little body work scare you. I helped my dad do all new floor pans in his jeep cherokee...not that bad. Eastwood has some good tutorial videos on metal fab on YouTube.

That is great man! I had a few moments in there where i was like...did they send me the wrong part? of course i went through the motions that go a long with that question, lol.

yeah no worries mine didnt either. un-do that clamp that is on the metal portion of the lines holding both of them together. attach the rack side first, loosely and then push both lines together so that you can clamp them up again. this should make life much easier.
