People put 33s, 35s, and larger on that carrier....nothing to worry about. My 33x1250 has posed no issues If I'm not mistaken, the cj5's and such had the tire bolted to the tailgate's sheetmetal, ours are on a tire carrier that is supported very well behind the sheetmetal, much less a strong section of steel on the rear pillar

Yes. Assuming you mean the TIRE CARRIER and not the TIRE BRACKET (inside the cargo area) It will not fit the cargo bracket if it has any tread, from what I've heard

In a part of their writing about it, they claim it will be seeing a fair bit of rock crawling.. perhaps its going to be more of a performer than a stage hand? only time will tell!

Lol, it probably does have a chain...I have never owned a car newer than 98 so I wouldn't know....lol Just noticed you were in michigan, good to see another midwester around here

Be sure to check/ask when the timing belt was changed, I believe the r50s are 115k miles....so if its at 120, it could very well need a fair bit of work done, which if you don't do it yourself gets expensive fast Sounds like a good buy though! Welcome!!

Although I'm not certain if this is applicable to the r50; I've seen plenty of wd21's w/the engine pulled while leaving the transmission in...but I honestly haven't heard one way or the other for the r50 edit-- did they make an r50 in OZ? I've yet to see one!

If you don't want to deal with it, autozone sells new caliper brackets and slide pins... just another option

Not only can I rappel it, but I can trace it too! I think I need a

I was JUST looking at some of these! I really wanted to get a paracord belt...44" waist is like 3 miles of paracord You really never know when you could need some cord, especially when you're out wheeling/hiking/camping edit-- I just read the last part of your post..lol, I guess paracord belts are more popular than I originally thought! There's a guy that makes a "hybrid" belt, and they look GOOD, its two different knots, and a latch mechanism that is more like a sliding setup, I forget what they call them (fully adjustable vs holes in the belt for a normal style)

Yeah, all that metal is pretty thin....I'd just take the bumper out, and smack it for a bit.. good thing you just painted it really, cause fresh paint will blend in wonderfully!

I know what you mean..especially with michigan's economy... Luckily, every semester people graduate and move back home or somewhere else, so there are always jobs come semester end

Personally, at MOST I'd sand it down and throw some fresh paint on there......nothing more than that It looks like your bumper ends attach differently than my 91...otherwise id have more info...fsm?

I was pretty certain it was 1 quart on the dipstick....I'd wait for an r50 owner to chime in before following this though

I don't get it..

I built my bumper/sliders with my HF 90 amp flux core, it's held up wonderfully....I mostly just want something with gas options instead of only flux...cleanup is a PITA

Pretty sure my chromies had 4" bs, and I know my new 15x8's are 4" bs

DANG! I really wanna find that hill....the corner with the dirt wall was AWESOME

Yeah, if I can get some decent cash doing this, I'll be using the employee discount ALOT (20%) Things I'm interested in depending on pay... Winch Shop compressor for air tools True MIG welder Gun Cabinet That rolly toolchest/workbench combo Start to replace some wearing out tools, like floor jack/jack stands, hand tools, sockets Although I'm equally excited to work @ a muffler shop, or small mom/pop shop....discounted tools would be nice..

Lol...I was joking around.. Plus, I'm Canadian! I know the conversions, I'm double minoring in Physics and Russian...kinda hard NOT to know metric by now!

I tried REALLY hard on my resume to make myself sound redneck...we will see how it goes!

wheel spacers will mainly CHANGE how it rubs....with my 33's, I need only worry about rubbing on the frame (actually cut up the side lugs on my tires doing that lol) but if I were to put wheel spacers on, sure it wouldn't rub on the frame (which is just a matter of adjusting the turn stops), but it would most likely hit the fenders alot more.. Considering 31x1050 were a factory option (just differently adjusted turn stops mind you) I don't think you will have an issue, as long as you remember to properly adjust the turn stops, and get a wheel with around 4" of bs

I'd apply @ their lube/tire....BUT that's quite a bit further away from me than HFT..

ugh...metric conversions!!!

There's a Harbor Freight about 1/4 mile down the road from my dorm, and they have two positions open, so I applied (need cash) to both! Does this mean I have officially sold my soul? Haha....hopefully I get the job, although I'll be applying at the following locations this week as well Tuffy Lentz (similar to tuffy) Quick oil change Pep boys (was hiring a delivery driver a few weeks ago..dunno about now) Nissan Dealer
