So my question concerns CA emissions testing. I just had the valves replaced $700 and now the cracked exhaust manifolds left and right $$2500 all so it will pass smog and turn off all the warning lights. Does this bypass kit Still allow my CA vehicle to pass smog? For future reference and my...

Reading up on this for my Nitro 2 inch lift kit I ordered. Noticing no lean with stock set up so looked at ADOS lower coil conversion kit $80 in their description they suggest the 99-04 WJ Jeep Grand Cherokee upper isolators as a cost effective alternative. After market has those for around $11...

Working construction i always feel selfconscious refering to my truck as my Lexus. Almost feel like I should lisp saying it. But most of them can appreciate how an equipment operator truck driver crane operator might want a nice comfortable vehicle to drive on his off hours. Mine needs a safari...

Check the FAQ pinned above. I found a thread there with what you need.

It's time to commit to this project now that space has been set up to work, priorities have been shifted and much research has led me to more questions. I want to build this thing right but not have to pull the kids college funds to do it. Quid pro quo. I need a few questions answered before I...

My project is missing a lower cover for the fly wheel. Cover and hardware to 90815 Long Beach CA.

Good to know. I have a long way until this becomes a critical part. Just beginning to piece a half way restored and mostly disassembled truck. Apparently this part got left behind at one of the two storage facilities I picked it up in. PO is a current friend. I let him know it was missing...

Nice. Bad enough I am in the middle of a FJ restoration and now I am thinking and have been thinking about doing similar mods to my GX470. I like where this is going all the same.

I have a 1968 in mid resto. Looks like I have most everything but the transmission hump cover. Not sure if I need to mod a stock 68 cover or get a later year model with the 4spd floor shift. Send pics. Thanks.

Just read your 1 week resto thread. Brilliant stuff. My dad raced desert on a Triumph for years. Then when he retired from racing he bought a couple Hodaka trail bikes. I ended up restoring and riding his Super Rat 100 until I moved up to a Hodaka 125 Combat wombat. Then an Ossa 250. Those old...

Thanks. I can't take any credit for Mike's work so far. I looked at several other forums in my Google quest for information. This place really appealed to me. I am already mind blown by the amount of sound and affordable solutions I am finding in the FAQ section. My favorite motorcycle forum...

Thanks but no I am the guy taking the picture from the safety of my crane cab. John is just cutting the slings loose. He is actually tied off to the beam he is standing on. Avitar is the job in Torrance.

Transmission cover? Is that the T-case?
