  1. i see them on the road all the time down here,like not beater... like cleaner than mine . I'm surprised i have not more people in my area on the board. maybe i need to put a big npora sticker on it but my beast maybe a bad advertiser.
  2. Will these work in the rear = http://www.amazon.com/Cherokee-Front-Budget-Boost-Spacers/dp/B006IVC9I6
  3. Wait, it's not the 3.6 via fsm???
  4. Are all the bolts the same fine thread pitch? I know they are different lengths. I have bolts , same size , longer, same 14mm head , coarser pitch. The fsm lists length, and torque specs. If not I need to break out the magnets on a string, cuz I have lost bolts, but I guess that is what happen when you have a outside shop, during leafy season, with over excited tank dog (who can kick a 1/2 inch ratchet and socket 10 feet across a floor) and project that was going take 3day , turn into e months.
  5. i need to do that. my clamps are stretched and i need fix the bird's nest going on around there.
  6. looks like that bad boy could use some time with a wire wheel and chassis saver.
  7. I had a similar problem , mine was bad connection at that junction on the positive post. i Just replaced all three ends with female shades.
  8. ^^^^ i just did this on my vg30 , but i think its the same on vg33. the seal comes out with the carrier. there was a lot rvt on everything and took gentle but persuasive prying with a flathead. oil pan stayed put, just a rubber gasket on that lower rounded part.
  9. I don't understand what hold that thing on.
  10. I'mssssoooooooo glad, I don't have to go though that detailed of a inspection. Something tells me my bailing wire exhaust mounts would not pass. Every time i go in , I can tell the inspector is ready to fail me, but she burns clean, one year the guy had to run it twice out of disbelief.
  11. yes , on the passenger side of your engine bay. it has the bin number, engine code and axle code also, if you wanna look and be sure.
  12. THANKS !!! cant wait to get everything back together freash and new.
  13. ok , trans , clutch , flywheel out. i see the trans gasket thing , not see how it would come off. i see the four bolts to the plate on the block. how do i pull the rear seal ? do i remove that plate? do i need to drain the motor oil? HELP!!!
  14. Crazy idea (wouldn't do it, just a what if thing) what's wrong with filling the rails with expanding foam? Floats, waterproof , adds a debatable strength, sound damping
  15. Looks like I'm going to be picking up some cans, and blast the rails and everywhere under there.
  16. Yea, since i posted this, i drilled holes in my brother’s mx5's rocker panel. You could hear the water. Enlarging holes and flushing it out, is on the list , but no rush cuz its sitting in the driveway with the trans hanging out and timing belt dying. What do "yous guys" suggest to apply a good coating to the inside? im glad you liked my joke. being in south(ish) Texas, road salt is a rare thing and the only other time it has encountered salt is the beach , twice in 7 years. i see more body rot then frame body. i had a friend come down from Minnesota in his 2003 f 250 super duty , frame rails DESTORYED , have no clue how he got it down here.
  17. correct me if i am wrong but i think centerforce dual friction clutch was/is a nismo upgrade.
  18. its off, just destroyed , the spline was rusted and twisted inside. the bar looks good, surgeon with a cut out wheel and air chisel pm'ed sir
  19. torsion bar rear anchor arm is seized to my torsion bar, does anyone have a spare willing to past with or know where i can get one besides a JY (last thing i want to do fight that bear)
  20. that was the show in question that is what i want to hear. its not like, im going back out of the drive way and do a fat burnout , it just that , after a year of being down, and the clutch slipping the whole time i have owned it, im going be excited. i dont know if i can keep my foot out of it
  21. ok, i watch these shows , they build the fresh engine , fresh trans , they throw it in a car , then do a fat burnout. What break in cycle are they using ? I know about the magic of tv but I know that clutch is not seeing 500 miles of stop and go. I know there aren’t a stage 5 clutch. SO, what is the “proper heat cycle”? What do I do? What I looking for? How do you break in a clutch in the race car/ non street legal car?
  22. yea it took a mile of extensions, swivel, 6 point 14mm socket and a pipe to break the last one free.
  23. trust me , this is not a something i want to do for a looong while. new full clutch kit , flywheel , bolts, gaskets and seals are going in. 700 miles of break in time of stop and go driving before any hooniganing
