    Gas Prices in your town ???

    I don't hold it against someone trying to make a living. Gasoline is a luxury, NOT a necessity. What I DON'T like is being told "I'm not making any money on this gas" when I KNOW that's either A: a total lie or B: the guy is an idiot and bought gasoline futures when the price was WAAAAY up...

    Gas Prices in your town ???

    I just traveled from Charleston SC to NW Arkansas and gas prices ranged from $2.39 in Russelville AR and a couple of other places and of course when I get home gas is still anywhere from $2.71 to $2.83. I wrote a letter to the editor of the local paper pointing this out since gas prices here...

    Movie Thread- Lets have fun !

    "Looks like I got myself some gasoline eh?" (I had a pledge brother in college who would make pledges go into gas stations and say this as they paid for their gas) From the same..... "Two days ago I saw a vehicle that could haul that tanker...."

    blew a ujoint yesterday

    Thanks man. I kinda wondered what the real difference between a "ubolt" and a "strap" yoke would be. Guess it's a little bit bigger holes. Course I put new straps/ujoints in YESTERDAY but I'm printing off those directions for future use/busy work if I get a slow weekend after it cools off...

    blew a ujoint yesterday

    Dropped my driveshaft today -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Believe it or not that's the first time I've ever done it in 13 years of CJ ownership. Anyhow, just busted one of the straps on the yoke coming out of the back of my Dana 300. We just...

    YJ rear towpoint

    here's what I did with my CJ, but the YJ springs don't use the hanger like the CJ's. I'm sure something could be rigged up pretty easily if you got creative. 4x4 piece of square steel 60" long along the top with corners trimmed off the bottom for aesthetic reasons. $35 (guy who had the steel...

    CJ valve cover

    Can't you just put some lock tite on a bolt and screw it down in there? Looks like if you seal the threads you'd stop a leak from occuring there. I had to take a small round file and slightly enlarge the front and rear holes to get the bolt holes to line up. I got slightly shorter bolts than...

    Some things they aren't much cheaper on, and sportsmansguide just raised their prices not too long ago, but for instance you can get winchester white box 9mm for about $125/1000 shipped. Here's a good .223 price list that is updated everyday...

    Man you might want to check out....well just out anybody other than CTD for ammo. They're pricey (and that's being nice). Check out www.sportsmansguide.com and use the appropriate coupon http://www.sportsmansguide.com/section/section.asp?s=2993#top SG usually has GREAT ammo prices but if...

    7.62x39 has over doubled in price over the last few months and right now no one has it in stock. Guns are a little cheaper but mags for AK's are getting more expensive too. AK is definately a good, fun, reliable gun to shoot but most of the AK's on the market now are built from surplus parts...

    If you go olympic DON'T get the plinker (built on cast reciever). Best thing to do is buy a stripped lower receiver (about $125) and then buy a kit and put it together. www.model1sales.com www.jtdistributing.com Almost all of the parts come from the same places initially but for instance...

    Okay, go ahead and let me have it...

    That's good as long as you get a wrangler. For all my raving about Honda quality I must admit their lineup is boring at best. My CJ's may have been POS's when they came off the line but at least they're fun. I'd hate to live life with only a boring reliable daily driver. Course if times get...

    Okay, go ahead and let me have it...

    Let you have it......um, ok. My grandad was a GM dealer from the late 40's till he retired in the early 90's. My family had NOTHING but GM products during most of those years, then after a few examples of the complete crap the American car companies were spitting out in the 80's my dad bought...

    Help me find this guy!

    Look on your statement and there will be a form probably on the last page OR even better call the 1 800 number on the back of your card and tell them what happened. They'll ask you to fill out a form (and will send you one of you don't have one from your last statement) and when you do so...

    carbs

    I've seen a lot of complaints on ehrmann lately in my forum browsings. Seems he's not able to provide 1.08's to everyone so he's started shipping 1.21's a lot (and some have been worn out to the point where a rebuild doesn't work). The main benefit of the 2100 is cost and if you're gonna pay...

    carbs

    I have both. Like the performance of the weber better, but the MC is a lot cheaper and is EASY to work on. Collins Bros (who absolutely rape you pricewise most of the time) have a copy of the 32/36 Weber for $289 that has gotten good reviews so far over on Jeepforum...

    Help me find this guy!

    Hope this works out for you. In the future ALWAYS pay with a credit card. You don't get what you paid for you just reverse the charge. In this day and age you have to protect yourself and that's the easiest way to do it..... Good luck!

    weber carbs

    Got the weber on my hunting Jeep that I keep about 250 miles from here at my parents' house. I'm going down there in a few weeks. I'll try and tear into it when I'm there if the weather is nice. Mine always started great till I had the engine rebuilt. The guy who did it said "I had to idle...
