I got some JLUR take offs for really cheap. They did rub the sway bar at full lock so I added some 1.25" spacers. Put the outside of the tire right at the outside of the fender and no more rubbing.





No spacer



With spacer

Well check that out. I can do pics again.
this is the on board air air in got installed about a month or so ago.
think is a 2 1/2 gallon tank and all installed on an old fiber cutting board.
so if need be I can pull it out very easily and take it where it’s needed.

Jeep battery seemed like it has been dying since the rubicon...don't think it liked the couple winch pulls. The battery was typical FLAPS and worked quite well....it had a 2 year warranty and went for 5 years without issue until a few weeks ago, but it rarely had to deep cycle as I don't use the winch all that much. Anyway it finally died and I had to decide what to replace it with...another FLAPS battery for $140 or so, or go upscale with AGM style deeper cycle like Odyssey or yellow top Optima etc, which run over $250...so after a bit of research and a 15% off coupon, I went with this: Duracell AGM


Its AGM with better deep cycling capability, MADE IN USA, and got decent reviews...all for just under $200. Its got a 4 year warranty so we'll see. One big downside, its not a common retailer so getting it warrantied when not here at home could be a PITA (the local store is walking distance from my house)....will keep you posted....at least the jeep started right up! Can drive it to work tomorrow....

I have been running Duracell AGM batteries in my tow rig for a few years now, no issues. I got mine at Sams.

Finally got my roof rack from the UK after two months of waiting! Now I just need to add some pinstripes to complete the look.

[The StRanger]

May not be a lot but still.
With the way JR lifted the front on the exploder leaves the track with narrow and wobbly
with dahlia growing so fast she will be driving soon ( 4 years ) she will be installing the solid axle front.
But for now I have her installing the wheel spacers so it won’t be so wobbly.

[The StRanger]

Sorry. The first pics the another engine.

Early 5.0 injection still used an air pump.

[Jim]

Huh - how'd that work?

[The StRanger]

Injecting cold air into the cats for a secondary burn, helps keep emissions down.
dont help that much so all I’m keepin is the alt & PS pump

[Jim]

Ah, thx. When you mentioned "injection" my mind was thinking it was in use for some pressurization / fuel delivery.

Is this for a trail vehicle? Keeping an option for an A/C unit for onboard air?

Got a bit of a project going on here. We got front axle on wylie's jeep upgraded to a super 30 and added an eaton locker and truss. Trussed rear axle but still have to get the gears done. Latest part for his project arrived this week, an atlas 2 speed.

[Jim]

That's a fun bit of kit!
