    Ford F250 Project, input needed on drivetrain options 6.9 IDI vs. 7.3 powerstroke etc

    My dad has a 1987 Ford F250 4x4 diesel that he no longer uses since he now has three 7.3 powerstroke diesel superduty pickups Long story short I'm buying the '87 from him on the cheap. It has around 130k on the odometer with the original 6.9 idi engine, C6 trans and whatever the stock transfer...

These...

    FS 1994 Jeep Wrangler with significant upgrades

    I've decided to part with my 1994 YJ in order to focus on slowly building up my 2010 JK daily driver. The tub on the '94 is extremely solid as is the frame, you'll look for a long time to find another one this solid. It's a 2.5 liter manual trans with stock 4.10 gears and approximately...

    Has anyone run siped MT's in the winter?

    I'm looking at tire options for my JKU and I am leaning toward an MT even though this is my daily driver here in the land of ice and snow. My tire options are as follows: 285/70R17 Hankook Dynapro ATM - Great tires, but potentially vulnerable sidewall when aired down 285/70R17 BF Goodrich...

    Anyone running 255/80R17 on a JK?

    I'm contemplating my tire choices for my 2010 JKU Sport and since I don't intend to do a lift and/or regear right now I want to stick with ~33" tires. I'm looking at 285/70R17 Hankook Dynapro ATM's which would be better for me for winter driving as this is my DD, however the 255/80R17 BFG KM2's...

    5- 31x10.5R15 BFG Mud Terrain KM2 on Cragar Soft 8 wheels - SW Michigan

    I purchased these just this summer and put them on my jeep. Since I've been busy and perpetually working on projects I've only put a couple hundred miles on them. They are fantastic tires, great on the road with no imbalance and excellent road manners. I haven't really had them off road yet...

    Need input on a late 80's F350 DRW I'm thinking about

    I was talking with my father a bit today and he mentioned that he had bought back one of his old trucks. It got the wheels spinning in my head and I'm trying to decide whether or not it might be worth digging into further. The truck is a '87-'89 F350 drw 2 wheel drive chassis cab with a 12ft...

    Need a template for an ARB safari snorkel for a YJ

    I just picked up a second hand snorkel last night and am in need of a template for installation. I suppose I can make one if need be, but I would prefer to just use the one that comes with the kit. If anyone has a used one they can part with or a copy they could send me I would be...

    YJ Wrangler Expedition project

    I recently acquired this 1994 Jeep Wrangler and am in the process of building it up for expedition/hunting/camping and just plain four wheeling. It is a 4 cylinder 5 speed which will have to do for now, but long term I plan on putting a small block chevy V8 in it with a 700R4 transmission, and...

    1967 M101 Military trailer $150

    I bought this recently with intentions of customizing it and building an expedition trailer with it, but I sold my full size truck and switched to a Jeep Wrangler with a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder, which pretty much rules out a trailer this size. The trailer does not have a bed on it or lights, aside...

    Change of plans

    Well, I had begun building up a 1990 GMC Sierra for some overland/light expedition use, but I quickly came to the conclusion that simply wasn't the ideal platform. Therefore I am picking up a very nice 1994 YJ in a couple days. The downside is it's a 2.5 liter stick, but I plan to do a V8...

    Another aux. light wiring question (I've searched already)

    I'm installing four Hella 500 lights on the front of my rack on the topper, and two work/flood lights on the back of the topper. The Hella 500 lamps have stock 55w bulbs, I believe the rear flood lights are also 55 watt bulbs. I am running seperate relays, switches, and wiring for each pair of...

    starting mild expo build on 90 GMC Sierra

    I decided a while back that I needed a truck to occasionally haul cargo and pull trailers since we replaced my wife's V8 WK Grand Cherokee with a Subaru Forester rated at 1200lbs towing. I ended up finding a nice solid 1990 GMC regular cab shortbox 4x4 with abour 195,000 well-maintained miles on...
