Hey Billy. I wish I coulda heard your singing voice.
Hey Seth. "Back in the day" is about right for me. My family just ramped up backpacking (hitting the REI garage sales, etc.) and we've been out...
I agree. This was fun. As I was reading your last couple of posts I remembered a couple years ago having a similar symptom. But mine was that...
Ooh, clogged exhaust.
Intake manifold not bolted down? (I'm really reaching here)
Dad-gummit, Sparky, don't tell her. She's at camp so I have it for two weeks! Woo-hoo! I'll roll the odometer back sometime next week. No problem.
Here's another. 1968 CJ6 with all the typical standards: Original Dauntless :v6: T14 transmission Dana Model 18 transfer case Warn...

Now my head hurts. :D Basic geometry was a long time ago. Without really thinking, I thought the circumference grew at a different rate than...
I just got new tires today. I kept the best old one for the spare so I can measure both new and old. My old 31" inch tire measures 29.5" like...
I always figured it was meant to never come apart. Mine had a hole in the bottom inside; I fixed it easily with JB weld.
This is a KH rim jeepers are usually talking about. Hope this helps. [IMG]
