The arms I used were listed as jeep YJ. They have a little rod that prevents the spring action from closing while not on the vehicle. Once i put the arm and blade onto the wiper motor shaft, I pulled the arm up a little and removed the pin. The spring then latches onto the shaft and the arm is...
This was done on the show "dirt every day." They used their surplus hmmwv on one episode with 40's and went crawling. Later on in another episode, they chopped the frame and shortened it up quite a bit. Its on the motortrend app someplace.
A good set of snow/wet tires helps a lot on nearly any vehicle. I didn't see what tires your running, but the MT have a definite lack of siping which helps a lot. I always heard regardless of 4wd, to put some bags of sand in your any truck bed for more weight as well. I am not sure what tires...
I have personally seen the kit installed on a 6.2. It seems well done throughout with exception of the final exhaust leg. Its an accident waiting to happen. It exits UNDER the frame rail beneath the passenger seat and then goes back out the rear. You will not be offroading with it very long. I...
I neglected to take picture yesterday, but found one that i have already taken and zoomed in. The plate is edged right up to that hole with the plug. I didn't realize mine was not covered either. I pulled my slant back brackets off, but the plate is still in its original place.
Yeah its pretty much centered, just make sure it doesn't interfere with tailgate. I don't recall if it uses another hole or not, it was already on the truck. As for the plugged hole, I would just leave it and put it over top. Maybe a little silicone to keep water from creeping through.
Mine is bolted on, sits about 1.5" above bed floor and is about the same sitting back from the seat back corner of the tub. Looks to be where it was from installation initially.
Those look like the correct 24v plugs. The 12v that I have seen have blades instead of the bullet connectors like you have. I recently replaced mine after some starting issues and had two that were destroyed and one on its way. I was able to remove the pieces of one, but the others were no where...
The "warm" part would to me say its use related for sure. As the vehicle is used, heat builds in alot of moving parts and thus expansion, exacerbating the clunk. Id start simple. Check your fluid level in the transmission and transfer case when warm and see if its incorrect. Then those u joints...
Changed out all my injectors, runs great now. Also installed led dash lights. Next is the spindle lock nuts and tabs, sitting on the table waiting for me.
I have had a soft top and an Amtech lowrise hardtop. I have not had the slantback. The Amtech was pretty nice to have, but youre still going to have leaks around doors, heat reflection, good storage with the side cabinets, poor visibility without adding rear window. I have heard the same with...
If your truck sat for awhile at auction, replace the mechanical fuel pump. If you haven't changed the filters do that as well, and some fuel system cleaner. If this doesn't clean it up, start working through the glow plugs. Just my history with them.
