    I rechecked when the vehicle was at operating temperature… plugged the Vector charger up and rechecked with the alternator diagnostic button… it showed “alt good” then went back to battery voltage with the vehicle still running… it showed 14.7 volts and 15.5 amps.. THEN.. right then and there...

    6112 Front Shock and Spring Set Installation Help...

    Spring Orientation So I’ll answer my own question with Bilstein technical response... Thanks for purchasing our product. The 6112 kit #47-259768 uses a linear rate coil spring with identical ends. It does not matter which orientation they are installed. Neither way will influence performance...

    Militiamen Occupy Oregon Wildlife Office in Protest of Ranchers' Prison Terms

    Listen - I appreciate your knowledge here, which seems to be manifold. Got it. IMO - it did not seem as if his reactions were due to being shot. Fire fights, yes. Not the type detailed here. 1980-1986 USN Persian Gulf. Adams class destroyer Mk V 5" forward gun controller splashing Iranian...

    Militiamen Occupy Oregon Wildlife Office in Protest of Ranchers' Prison Terms

    Well I will add this with regards to Abdominal Subdivisions and subsequent gun shot wounds... His reaction - if in fact shot at the time you say - was the most nonplused reaction to having his kidney and renal arteries blow apart that I've ever seen. Even a simple but devastating kidney punch...

    2016 Easter Jeep Safari

    Well, I’ll have to agree with all who advise against such a journey but with that said – there are a vast number of trails to be had that require no significant modifications at all. The challenge will be to have friends or others that have more capable vehicles to go with you to the more...

    Should my UCA bushings look like this?

    Yes... definitely to much grease pressure with your application. I'm a fairly good wrench but figured I'd brush up on things before install and watched the following from Total Chaos... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbsTJgb6S_c The video is a little longer as they are installing front...

    Official 5th Gen T4R Off-Road pics

    Really love the look of the Fuel Beast rims you have. I currently have the 7 spoke trail rims and was looking at the beast. Unfortunately I don't have the data on the current rims with regards to back spacing and offset so that I can understand where the Beast will land with stance. I'm...

    Tire size opinions wanted

    Tires Yes... perhaps some harmless immediate feedback. I went with 275/70/17 C load in a Cooper. No big hit in the weight department or rolling resistance. Big gains in stability over the P rated IMO. Tires were the first thing I did and nose dive under breaking essentially disappeared...
