    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I hate to say it, but a BEFORE picture of the stain would allow us to hate it even more. And hopefully an AFTER picture will make us all happy Jeepers.

    Help identifying what vacuum tube is missing on intake manifold

    OMG!!! I didn't even see the relationship between what he said and what I found. Sometimes you amaze me!

    Chunky rear diff fluid

    Am I seeing actual questionable metal or just some kind of reflection from the lube?

    Help identifying what vacuum tube is missing on intake manifold

    Man I had to look that up and I don't think what I found would help. I also should have asked, how long has the PO owned/driven this Jeep? and I should have said, no matter what you don't want that nipple to suck in non-filtered air.

    Help identifying what vacuum tube is missing on intake manifold

    I don't know what exactly is supposed to be there but I would plug it up with tape or whatever and take a drive to see if that helps.

    Car pics too cool not to share

    Very good post sir. I'm glad I noticed it before actually posting too much repeat info about that. https://www.facebook.com/NORTHEAST.OHIO.DUKES link has posted some info about that General Lee being "NOT A REAL CHARGER !! 00 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS!" about 7 hrs ago. I just going to post a...

    Are these parts wearing correctly?

    It is next to impossible to tell in a picture if parts like that are worn. But I would think twice trusting anyone that claims "that almost every steering component has play, including these recently replaced parts."

    Sometimes you east coast guys have it easy

    There's probably at least a couple patina fans out there (somewhere) with a LICHIN IS BITCHIN!!!! mindset. Maybe even selling stickers.

    Bestop Trektop NX Mystery Tabs

    I think those are to remove the side windows while driving in the woods. Something is sure to grab them as you drive by. Similar action as early Jeep door handles

    Car pics too cool not to share

    As ugly as it is, here's a more modern version of someone using someone else's lights. They had to be cheap since GM didn't need them any more so I blame accountants for that one.

    BEN AFFLECK AND JENNIFER GARNER'S CHILD INTRODUCES THEIR NEW NAME IN PUBLIC

    Based on centuries of the English language, according to this headline it's clear to see that a young child has named its own parents. Unfortunately, due to where this introduction happened it only gets more embarassing for everyone..

    Bartact woes

    That's what I've done for quite a while now but sometimes I wonder if I'm just wasting money trying to save "Made in America" while a grossly high percentage of my so called Fellow Americans keep fighting against that. Worse than that, US trade with china is pretty much a one way street and our...

    What is this Rubber-ish Flap Called?

    Thanks for sharing the proper name and part number. I did wonder if they were still available but the few mopar part sites I checked showed it as being discontinued. Luckily (or maybe not) you can get the Mopar P/N 55036369AB from GMPartsStore where they claim you will find ONLY NEW GENUINE GM...

    Why do you need this in your trail kit?

    I haven't had a bent brake flange (yet) but more than once I have had a little stone or two wedged somewhere between the rotor, the dust shield and the caliper so having this fine tool out on the trail with me instead of lost somewhere in my garage seems like a good idea.

    Is Smittybilt really that low quality?

    All that sounds fine but the question I saw is: I certainly don't know about the quality of Smittybilt's powder coat and what will happen to it after any salt cycles. My limited experience with any chinesium powder coat is that it will easily flake off whether exposed to salt or not. FWIW...

    Solar eclipse craziness

    OK, It does look like I will be heading about 2 hours west of here to see the whole 100%. I do have some glasses but they seem like they belong on an elementary school student but I found THE FIX and everyone should join in. FWIW, that isn't me and I'm thinking about drawing the moon to...

    Car pics too cool not to share

    Since we're talking about Corvette's and @holes. What I've noticed is the newer the Vette, the bigger the @hole. I believe that the Vette @holism was first conceived when the chrome front bumper disappeared in 1973 and was fully born in 1974 although the "Look how much better I am than you"...

    Are we on the verge of another tsunami of hate thread? IIRC that one was kinda fun.
