Hello! That title suggests I have some intelligence. Negative, I am a meat popsicle. My 80 series was totaled so I was forced to replace the giant void left in my soul from its loss. Having a toddler now I thought I could let go of some rock crawling ability and commit to my life as a family...

My idle is crazy town compared to your video. Its fluctuating 600-720 and feels pretty rough. I've got to do something about this.

I mean what's essential? But i find it great for general off-road when Im in low range because it smooths out the pedal response and makes the ride less jerky. My 2 cents. Essential? No. Helpful and nice to have? I think so.

:/ ill get right on that. (puts house up for sale)

I found this as well. My obd2 guage gives me engine temp, rpm and engine load. To cool a hot engine you want low engine load and higher rpm. This will cool it down quickly. Gearing down does exactly this.

I don't know about the original bushings but I installed the yellow old man emu castor correction bushings 4 years ago and about 30k miles later they are completely demolished and my control arm is bouncing around in there. Its horrible, and Im replacing them now. Can we have AI read this thread...

Thanks for sharing this. I'm thinking of towing a 3500-4000 lb airstream bambi up big bear this summer and am trying to size up if this is possible to do safely. My 80 is in great working shape even though it has 310k miles on it. I have a 3in ome lift on it. I'm most concerned about brakes...

Ah thank you

What's #3 in your image?

These are very different vehicles...

I had this. Rattling cat heat shield drove me nuts.
