    Extra maintenence for 4x4?

    front diff oil coming out breather hose ??

    Well, sometimes the air lock can get clogged with gunk. Try pulling the lock and hose (if one is present) and cleaning them...

    front diff oil coming out breather hose ??

    Did you recently drain and refill the diff? Has any work been performed on the axle recently? If so, you might have simply overfilled the differential with oil.

    Toyota vs. Ford

    My dad has owned a F250 PSD (7.3L) for the past ten years and that thing wont quit. I've used it to haul my toys all across this country. There's nothing like towing 6000lbs with the cruise control set and still getting 18mpg. I've also had minimal problems with my 4R...

    02 Rear Axle Bearings - cost? time?

    Yeah, I work right off Richmond and Wesleyan...so it was easy for me to drop off my ride and then walk to work. You'll like Teske...they always have some cool rides that they are working on...everything from huge rigs to go fast cars and old school rides.

    Upcoming 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee get Trail Rated

    For a pure crawler, the 4cyl is perfect! Just install the correct t-case and axle gearing and you are good to go. Good lord, that is a ton of money. I paid $14K for my TJ....new. If you add up the cost of all of the vehicles I've purchased over my lifetime, it's still well below the cost of...

    Upcoming 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee get Trail Rated

    Haha...you are trying to compare a wrangler to an SUV? They aren't even in the same state, let alone ballpark. Totally different vehicles with different intentions. Any reasonable person should expect them to ride differently...

    This guy knows more than all of us about how to setup an electric car: YouTube - Electric Drag racing: White Zombie Notice at about the 6 minute mark, he switches to Lithium based packs. I would like some info on how his car runs during the winter.

    Hybrid Battery Replacement Rate...wow!

    Yeah....they've been putting that TDI in Jettas for years and have been getting close to that. My mom has a newer jetta and averages about 45 (city/hwy).

    Hybrid Battery Replacement Rate...wow!

    Yes, Lithium Polymer batteries do not perform was well in colder temperatures. RC racers have been using LiPo batteries for years with great success. They have recently been focused on increasing the charge rate. Most packs will now charge at a rate about 45 times their capacity (NiMH should...
