Funny you say that... we always take out the jack when we sell a car. We have 4 scissor jacks and one bottle jack. No including our current car's jacks. Hehe. I bet the new owners are a little upset.

Yeah, I was hoping for a long-sleeved black T-Shirt. How did we get doggie shirts and thongs but no black shirts?

From what I understand, the ignition system did not change throughout production of the WD21. 88pathoffroad needed a tach adapter, so yes, GrimGreg you will need an adapter. I'm installing this tonight and I'll let you guys know how it went.

Wrong diagram... fixed now. -study-

Oh ok. I think I get it. Instead of splicing into the wires in the coil and combining the orange and black to them, I completely redirect from the blue to the red(on MSD) and the black to the white(on MSD). Then I put the orange(on MSD) and black(on MSD) to the blue and the black on the coil to the already cut wires. I'm going to try a diagram in Paint. Then I'll come back and edit the post with the picture...

Okay... they've dynoed these things. The performance gain isn't an IF. My friend's Blazer K5 got 15 HP... it was dynoed. Now about the dirt, you may be right. I've never heard about such a problem. But the first step to deciding if we want to get one or not is if K&N makes something for us in the first place. Let's get these things manufactured, then we can decide if we want them.

You can add a picture to the back of the T-Shirt? And it doesn't raise the price to have a one-off shirt?

Okay, there are 35 trucks on there... People who pay up front can have their truck on there. Are we going to sell more than that?

Are you sure? I thought I checked a couple weeks ago. Hmmm... guess somebody snatched up their last set.

Your lug pattern is 6x4.5? And do you need hub-centric wheels?

Okay... I really appreciate the help. But please speak English. I don't need to know how it works, I just need to know where to put the wires. Even with the explanation, I have no idea what to attach the white and red wires to. Maybe if I took a picture of the engine bay and you can circle (in paint) what I need to be looking at. Would that work? Again, I really appreciate your help!

Mine can too. If I think about it real hard, it'll fly.

You might get away with it with no lift. It depends... if you have aftermarket wheels that have a lower backspacing (it pokes out more) you should be alright. If your wheels are stock, I'd crank the torsion bars in the front. If they rub in the back get some coil boosters.

Does 2.25 sound right?

I was thinking I'd get an MSD Blaster coil if I was to replace my current coil. Anyways, so what you're saying is I don't need the purple/green wires? I didn't think I'd use them. So I splice both the white and the (We're guessing) black into the negative on the coil? I don't think I'm reading you correctly.

All of the image links are broken. I have no idea what they look like. I think we should have a WD21 (either a 2-door or 4-door but not both), an R50, and an R51. Have the three lined up side by side looking at them from a front-quarter angle. Just like KnOxville said, I'm sure you've all come up with your design already.

I just emailed CALMINI and they plan to release their suspension lift to the consumer at the end of the summer. They did not comment on price or amount of lift, but by the pictures I'd say 3"-4" lift. Does that look about right?

www.truckperformance.com still has those Bushwacker flares in stock. And do they look good!

Calling all mechanically inclined people! Here is my brand new MSD Ignition System: I’m a little bit confused about how I’m supposed to hook it up. Here’s the diagram they gave me. It is the same thing, except I used paint to recreate it because I could not take a clear picture of it. We’ll start with the basics. These two wires go to the battery. That’s a dead give-away. The next connection. Orange and Black (see picture below) are supposed to hook up to the terminals of the coil. Wait a minute! I don’t have any terminals! I talked to 88 awhile back and he said I have to splice into the wires leading into it. Because black is usually negative, I figure that black goes to black, and orange goes to blue (see picture below). Correct me if I’m wrong. So far so good? Here’s the tricky part. When you look at the diagram, you see that the purple and green wires (see picture below) connect to my magnetic pickup in the distributer. The magnetic what?! I found these wires going into the distributer. Tell me if they are at all relevant. If you look back at the diagram, I also have a red and a white wire coming from the MSD (not pictured). They are the same gauge as the black and orange ones leading to the coil. Red goes to switched 12 volts? Please explain if you can. And white goes to amplifier output? I’ll need that one explained as well. Also, please note that you can only use either the white wire or the green/purple combo. I have a feeling I don’t use the green/purple combo. Okay… Phew! To wrap things up, I know that this is a difficult thing to explain over the internet. Maybe if you guys can take pictures and circle (in paint) what I should be looking at, that would be awesome! For the people who have no idea what this thing does, it boosts about 10 HP and 14 ft/lbs of torque. It also increases MPG (so I hear) and helps the engine idle better. Please note that this setup requires high-performance spark plug wires. I think they have to be hollow-core or something like that. My wires come in tomorrow.Yippie!

And it looks pretty cool too.

Nevermind what I said. I just found your post in the fundraiser thread, vengeful.

I stopped the fundraiser just because it was too unsound.

According to 88, the transmission cooler is barely adequate as is. He installed an aftermarket. I'm sure he'll ring in.

Maybe if you guys who sent one a long time ago (before my reply) could do it again for good measure?

NOW you tell me. I spent 40 minutes doing plug #6 alone about a month ago. I had no idea there was a tool for it.
