Sorry for all the excitment, but Hell just froze over this morning. After 5 years of excuses from Aussie, the finally have a locker for the 8.25 29 spline. The locker is in testing right now and they have it listed on there site. Bad thing is that it cost $300, which is a bit of a dissappointment compared to the cost of their other lockers. It is still cheaper to pick up an Ford 8.8 with a limited slip and any gear ratio you want for around $200 to $300.

Does anyone have a portable air compressor that I could borrow for a day. My pos compressor is about 25 years old and only goes up to 70 psi. I have a couple really stubbron bolts I need to get out and mine will not do the job.

Thanks

Anyone know of any place in the Flint area other then the local Pawn shops that sells used lawn mowers?

Thanks

My dad is coming up from Florida to visit for a couple of weeks as of June 5th. Do to recent medical and back problems, he will need a wheelchair to get around in. Does anyone know where I might be able to rent one or borrow one for a couple of weeks at a reasonable price?

Thanks

The new aftermarket item is intended for those Liberty owners who get teased about their Liberty not being a real Jeep...lol.

Here is a link to some pictures from my St Helen run. Sorry that no one could make it up, we had a lot of fun. Meet some new people from the different forums and also a few of use stopped by Grandmans place to run the course. I was amazing surpised on how well my street tires (33" General Grabbers) performed in the sand and on the concret. Made it through the course with very little trouble.

I made one of these many years ago in my old club and it came in handy when we went out on our trail runs. This shows you how to make a portable picnic table out of one sheet of plywood.

Trucks on Spike TV just started their Cheep Cherokee build up. Looks like some interesting and cheep build up ideas. They will also be installing a Ford 8.8 onto it. Something I will be looking forward to watching. For those of us building up an XJ, might be something to pay attention too.

Already found out by using D30 axle shafts out of a D30 with ABS is an upgrade to a D30 axle shafts without ABS. It appears that the D30 ABS axle shafts are slightly bigger in diameter then non ABS axle shafts.

If you have nothing to do tonight and are a Blues Brothers fan you might want to check this out. I am not a fan of the Blues Brothers, but will be going for something to do

Just throwing this out there for now since it is quite tenative at this point. I am going up to St Helen to play around on the trails in that area the weekend of April 19th. Been about 15 years since I have been there and nothing else seems to be going on at the moment. Not sure if I will be staying all weekend or not, but anyone that wants to come along you are more then welcome.

Anyone know locally were I can pick up a replacement silenoid?

Pictures of Nick, Whitney and me are up on our winter trail run in Mio this weekend. Got to our picture gallery then go into the members section to view them.

Looks like that since I moved in to the city of Flint I have to pay city taxes, which I have never had to do before. I am using Turbo Tax and trying to fill out the CF-1040 form for Flint City Tax and it wants me to fill in the following information:

Form CF-1040 (Flint) -- Schedule of Wages: Last date of employment during the current tax year for employer-1 must be entered.

Form CF-1040 (Flint) -- Schedule of Wages: First date of employment during the current tax year for employer-1 must be entered.

What exactly is it trying to ask me to do? To me it is asking when my last day of employement was, but I am not unemployeed and my first date of employment this year. Confused..lol.

Thanks for any assitance

I am meeting a fellow ORJ'r up in Mio area Feb. 9th to do some trail riding. Anyone like to come along is more the welcome. Just let me know

Got to love Michigan weather. The have issued a Tornado watch in the middle of winter, January no doubt, for the West Branch to Tawas areas..lol.

Found this picture on myjeepspace of a Mitsubishi Jeep with a 2.7L diesel.. pretty interesting. Plus another picture of a hi-breed Jeep found in Iraq

Maybe looking for some 15x8 to 15x10" wheels with a 4.5 bolt pattern. Picked up some new 33"s but the wheels they are on are for CJ's.

Not sure if anyone has posted this or not, but thought it was cute

If anyone has any leads on a used alternator what would work in my 99XJ I would appreciate it. Auto parts stores want $150 to $250 for one.

Go figure that it gets a little wet it shorts out. Another great idea of Jeep to put them at the bottom of the engine, instead of where the AC unit is.
