Even though those seat covers in the yellow truck are suppose to be water proof, I don’t want to find any more “unusual” stains on them. And, you might want to mention to the girls that the black dog had an accident in the back seat.

I had just finished Kong.
I heard a few snap-crackle-pop noises from the rear end on the exit trail. I did a quick inspection but didn't see anything obvious, so I chalked it up to rocks in the rotors or springs. I think this was when all the hardware broke off and went through the gears...
Whatever route you take I'd recommend putting a 3/8" flat backing plate behind the tow point. It helps spread out the load, and hopefully, keep the rear cross member from distorting.
On that same note, the pintle pulls from the center of the rear cross member where the receiver hitch is...
Webers work just fine if you take the time to learn how they work and tune them correctly. They are actually pretty simple, but can take some patience.
Some Weber adapter kits come with hardware that is slightly too long and can cause vacuum leaks or cracked adapter plates. When installing...
I'm OK with having the raffle & dinner Friday - just so long as it doesn't consist of soggy steaks that have been sitting at the bottom of an unplugged coffin freezer all day.
One other thing to consider are any long or late-running trail rides the day of the raffle & dinner. I think in past...
OEM PTO winches are neat and novel . . .
. . . until you get sick of changing shear pins – that is, if the OEM pins are even available any more. I've seen plenty bastardized by replacing the factory shear pins with 1/4" hardware. I don't know how long the bronze gear lasts like that.

Steve purchased three of them from Danny Warden. I have one on my case, Bunnyhill has one on his, and the other one is on the case that he removed from his Red truck when he switched to the Atlas.

New main shaft and range shift collar.
Upgraded front output to fine spline and installed a Warden billet nose cone.
Has stock shift rail, ball, spring and set screw.
Will pop out of high range occasionally on road while decelerating, low range was fine.

No.
The front wheel bearings should have been packed with grease. When the birfield seal starts leaking it’s common for the gear oil to wash the grease out of the bearings.
Check for pits, black lines, or dull gray coloring of the races. The bearings and races may look OK, but I’d replace...
Don't they take up about 1/8" of space as all the knuckle pieces bolt together? If you take them off all together you'll need to put a spacer of some kind in there so you can bolt the hub dust seal onto the outside of the knuckle.
Also, isn't there a break line 'T' riveted to the back side of...
Start calling around. Any glass place that can cut and install a flat piece of saftey glass can do it. It might even be covered under your insurance...
Back in 2000 I paid just over $150 to have one cut and installed into a '74 FJ-40 windshield frame. The invoice shows that it was 19" x 53"...
My experience has been that if you have the correct gauge, sending unit, and thermostat the first mark on the gauge should be 180 degrees F for earlier trucks or 190 degrees F for later. I think the later trucks with a fan clutch had a 190 degree thermostat with the corresponding gauge and...
