Quit playing with your pussy and get this done!

PUT IT ON A DYNO! I would say call Dave Prima and ask if he knows of a place he could meet you at. Might cost less than one of Daves "street" engines. NOT an engine I would willy nilly down the road till you KNOW she's dialed.

That would be from a 4x4 720. Speedo was in the transfercase.

Your at 7. See some current stuff.

I still have two Jeeps.....and a WD21, but, I would realy like to build a Patrol some day. Both of my current Jeeps have been found on farms. Hopeing for the day I find a Patrol in a barn.

OK. Only a couple more. Tell us about your plans.

Running it all the way out will do the best at getting the noise toned down a little. The key is a little.

Eliminating the spring bucket should make for a much easier triangle to build as well. Be sure to keep us up to date on your ideas. Sounds interesting.

FRONT SUSPENSION........... :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :rofl:

Pretty sure the factory thermostat is 170. I a run 180 in mine with no cooling issues. My Dodge Cummins has a 195!

Glad to see you posting Andrew! :thumbup: I had pics of your prerunner for the longest time. I saved everyone I could find. I REALLY want to build one. Is there a build thread anywhere on it?

Oh hell ya! The day after that pic I had to reverse the fender lip to haul my damn pantoon boats to Shasta. The fronts would only rub in tight corners if I was pushing it. Did the fronts shortly after we got back. I got tired of listeneing to it. :D

No, just the same as all the others. I rattle bombed mine with matte nickle.

I've used the Lucas and the Mobile. Bothy great products. Anything is better than a moly based grease. That shit turns to a nasty sticky mess when it gets hot. I really like the John Deere grease #TY6341. It's what is in their bearing & tie rod ends when they come new. I can tell you that high speed bearings last longer with the Deere grease than others. I use it my steering joints too.

Just so you know, if you can find a "spare" from a blazer they were only 7" wide with the same backspace.
