bryan g, Your ideal job is a Gigolo.

From the sounds of it just be glad you got the money back.

Very moving story. He is a far better man than I could hope to be.

Stacey David? Yenner doesn't get an advertising budget from skyjacker.

 

 

If you want the job done right and its a jeep, you gotta do it yourself.

This is from the BMV's website on collectors plates. more info here

 

In an effort to ensure that all vehicles registered as collector vehicles are truly collectible, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles references the National Automobile Dealers Association, Classic, Collectible, and Special Interest Car Appraisal Guide or the 4th Edition Standard Catalog of American Cars 1946-1975 (Krause Publications) or The Complete Book of Collectible Cars 1930-1990 (Consumer Guide) to determine vehicles that are true collector vehicles. Although we recognize that a vehicle may be unique because of time, energy and investment expended by the owner, these publications are used in determining eligibility for collector’s license plates. Due to a administrative ruling, vehicle models not listed in the above publications may be considered collector vehicles if the applicant obtains documentation from the manufacturer that the vehicle was in limited production, is in demand as a collectible vehicle at the time of application or a sizable investment can be proven.

Looks like I'll be changing my address back to muskingum county, cuz the Jeeps screwed and the camaro wouldn't have a hope in hell of passing echeck.

 

If not we'll have to find friendly shops that will rubber stamp the echeck for us. graemlins/bsflag.gif

 

Clean air is overrated, who wants to live forever? Just kidding I am fond of clean air.

You might contact Stefan at Trail Quest out in Plain City Trail quest web pageI don't know if they do installs though. Trails West out on 40 east can do it, I think they charge about $300 for a lift installation. 4Wheel parts will try to shove that pro comp shit down your throat. graemlins/puke.gif

 

You'll need a slip yoke eliminator on the transfer case for any lift over 2 inches or you'll likely get driveshaft vibes.

 

Thats what I wanted my cherokee to look like minus the snorkel

MJ was the chassis code for the comanche.

 

I have no idea about swaps, 84-86 probably had a GM 2.8L V6, so a 4.3L vortec MIGHT be an option, but I'm really just guessing there. The 4.0L I6 would work but you ain't gonna just toss it in there. The good thing is there are plenty of donor vehicles out there.

Jeep will be offering a diesel liberty (KJ) for '05 Its a 2.8L non turbo common rail diesel. Its supposed to have best in class torque and pretty good mileage. Regardless its still ugly.

 

As far as the MJ goes I don't think the turbo diesel was offered in the US. Maybe Mexico and Europe. I could be wrong but I've never heard of one with that stateside.

 

The MJ comanche shares a lot with the XJ cherokee, suspension and engine wise anyway.

 

Some great jeep websites are

Jeeps Unlimited

Rockcrawler.com

Jeepin.com

KJ common rail diesel

 

Did a quick search and the Australian XJ got a turbo diesel from 97-01 supplied by an italian company. XJ turbo diesel article

Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.

 

I'm at my computer right now but I'm just to drunk to type anything meaningful

Did they announce whats going to be under that cowl hood?

 

I can't believe that hood would make it into production.

I'm a zaino fiend. It would be great to pick up the basics locally.

 

Let me know soon, I am about to place a large order for early spring. I'd be glad to pay an extra buck or two to be able to get it locally.

 

Z-1, Z-2, and spray on Z-6 for me.

Well, there used to be a guy in millersport that was real good with CRX's. Name was Kris Watters or something, anyways he had an article in the dispatch this summer about how he used to work on CRX's on a tarp in his living room, you might want to look him up. With his faith and focus, he can get you a 16HP gain from a hi flo heater core.

Your gonna need LS1 Edit too. Go in with 3 other guys and the cost will be $275 a person, F-Body and or C5's. I've been learning LS1 Edit on how to properly tune LS1's, so maybe I could help you out down the road.

I'll go in with you on the LS1edit if you decide to do that. Let me know on COFBA, I'm mitch over there too.

I'm pretty sure they no longer are required to have their lights on. Used to be that they had to have them on after dusk, now I think it is their choice. I could be wrong, I'm just a worthless dipshit anyways.

Where do you get those stickers that give you extra horsepower at?

Duh anyone knows the best bang for the buck HP wise comes from neons. License plate neon nets 8 HP and the full undercar kit gets 17-20 HP depending on model. The neons release neon gas to the atmosphere, which is sucked into the intake, giving a nos like effect, yo. Inert gases rock that way, yo. graemlins/trout.gif
