Re: OBA

Here are some pic's of my OBA set up. http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/i363/84cj/143.jpg http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/i363/84cj/146.jpg I have since changed the filter, to a much larger one from Sears, looks identical to the one you see in John's pictures. Works great. One of the best thin...

Can't believe I did that with out a full cage...It was awesome, in hindsight! I was pretty scared during the whole thing, it took me a minute to compose myself and actually understand what Dan was asking me to do...

Re: lockers & re-gearing

I have a 5 speed nv3550 with 4.56 and 35's. It will cruise the highways from hear to Moab at 75 all day long (literally), unless of course you through a steep grade in there then my CJ struggles a bit. 4.88's would be a decent choice as well, but right now my 1st gear is so low I have to change gear...

Re: Yet another reason to love Rausch

Glad I bought a canopy for that trip, and I'm looking forward to the next trip. Rain, Downpours, still had a blast! It boils down to people, good people = good times regardless. It is also the best proving grounds I've taken my rig on, for sure. You know what I mean John and Kurt! AKA the dynamic re...

Re: WTF - When it rains it pours

I hear what you guys are saying, and the extreme trails at Rausch did cause a lot of problem for me, but since then, ( the May 2011 Rausch trip) I have put enough money and new parts in it that I am to far gone to start a new. I think the 20 has done well for me for a long time, and I have never had...

Re: WTF - When it rains it pours

I do appreciate all of your comments and suggestions and if I were to start all over, ( with zero dollars tied up into the AMC20) I would build a Dana 44 of a ford 9" and not look back. But it is what it is and if I can eliminate the weakest link of the axle by increasing the size of the tube w...

Re: WTF - When it rains it pours

John, thanks for the offer, but After talking to Lou, there are a lot of unknowns, such as, probably need a new drive shaft, the brake booseter may not have enough capacity, not to mention clearance, my gas tank skid already has a dent in it from my 20, I could only image the clearance issues with t...
