    North Jersey Trails/Wheeling Spots???

    Cool, I definately would like to go wheeling sometime. Not sure when I can go right now though, I'm working on most saturdays now and sundays probably won't workout. But I will hit you up if I get a Saturday off, and let me know if your ever heading out just in case I could make it. Adam.

    Who's in NJ? Where?

    Nice! Looks like you guys had some fun. Some kinda deep water though. Would imagine a lot of you got water inside the cabin...? Looks like a snorkel, vent extensions, and lockers are a VERY good idea for wheeling at wharton. Looking good guys! Adam.

    (PICS INSIDE) 15x8 wheels 4"BS, bfg 31/10.50, 1.5" TT, warrior shackle and AAL

    Which add a leaf did you use? I see they have 1", 2", and 3" superlift add a leafs, in both, "Long style" and "Short Style" leafs on summitracing. Also, your tire size is 31 x 10.5 on 15 inch rims. What does that translate to when shopping for the tires? Like the 225/70 R15 for example...

    How to check torque converter bolts/nuts

    You have to remove your starter. Once you remove your starter, you'll be able to see and tighten, one at at time, the 4 nuts that hold the torque converter to the flywheel. You may need/want a second person to help you with this. You will have to turn the engine by the crank bolt(CLOCKWISE...

    @#$@ PATS....Won't start, broken ignition collar..HELP!

    First off let me just vent and say how rediculous the PATS system is. I mean I understand its a great anti-theft system, but it is just to expensive and invasive if you need a new key or have any other problem. :mad: Ok. So heres the story. I have a 99, and only ONE working key. I was...

    banging under driver floorboard HELP

    Or you could just remove the front driveshaft like I have since the spring, until you get it repaired or replaced when you get the money. HOWEVER, this is ONLY if you do NOT have AWD, as AWD will roll away in Park if the front shaft is removed. Adam
