Thanks. I’m running stock height and for what I do, an added inch or two won’t make much difference. Besides, it is always fun to see the look on the face of the guys running 37’s when I crawl right along with them on 29’s and open diffs!
Curious about your tires. I have the same on my 3B. Compared to what the other guys on your ride are running, yours are smaller in both diameter and width. How well do they do for your wheeling out there?
BIGGER TIRES ARE WAY BETTER… but, I love the way stock tires look, so i keep using them. stock tires work very well. they just a little bit more bumpier on the trail, with less traction. Stock tires work well, and look awesome! 😁
what is that bellhousing? I'm doing a t98 to a 231 and am having issues getting the input shaft to the pilot beating, way short. BOP bell housing and an adaptor isn't lining up
Hi - yes. (1st) engine (2nd) bellhousing (3rd) SM420 (4th) Novak adapter (5th) tcase. thats the sequence. the novak adapter has same holes for tcase. you dont lose holes for tcase. hope that helps. I have that other video with red jeep that might show it better. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pL7URz1YpH8.htmlsi=68miQE1Pc7mGSBgO
hi. yes it is - 9774035 www.ebay.com/itm/176446560186?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=8UmLhqMqQee&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QFWMGEgERS2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
to be sure. you need to open the differntial and see what you got-count the splines and then you’ll be set to order. I opened mine up and seen that it was a 30 spline dana 44… but some have only 10 splines… Thanks.
thanks for your tip on DIY top. i'm in process making one which doesn't require welding. i'm doing a top for my 1952 CJ3A with a bow already installed, will show on youtube once is completed. nothing fancy, just keeps the rain out and the wind. all local driving, try avoid freeway if all possible and stays on the backroad. why many old jeep with the roll bar cage? it's bad enough the jeep goes 55-60 mph. i love my CJ and will keep it original looks.
cool 👍 I was against the roll bar too- but then I started doing hard trails and the realization that I can roll over very easily is very sobering… can’t wait to see your jeep. Thanks 👍
Let me tell you about my dirty little trick that somebody else probably did first. For mounting cylindrical silendri... oh hell, things shaped like a pringles can. I get the appropriate sized muffler clamp and thread 2 extra nuts on the u bolt side of the bracket, and the nuts that came with it inside the panel. I made a fire extinguisher holder and now working on mad max style cup holders.
I’d love to know where the hell you learned all this I’ve personally learned so much from RU-vid to never bring my Willy’s to a shop but it takes time when you’re going in blind lol
I noticed this issue as well while mocking mine up…. I haven’t yet tried to actually install the tranny… but I can definitely foresee the problem you’re pointing out… I’m gonna do the same mod… thanks!
Hey Ernie, that was some fine problem solving. Thanks so much for sharing your hard earned knowlege and helping the rest of us flat fender guys as we fight the good fight!
