This is my first time reading the 'Banned' thread as well.. and I have to agree- I've joined some of the other wheeling sites as well.. one of them touts themselves as 'extreme', etc... (aaarrr) and...
Thanks much- that's some good info.. I'm looking at crossing both the sierras (I-80) as well as driving up the 5 and up & over the Mt. Shasta area of Nor-Cal loaded with a trailer, toys and...
Ok, here's a which would you choose scenario-
I've got two choices here. In regard to overheating I'm golden as long as I stay in the city and don't hit the fwy for long, lol.. but I got this rig...
...ok, diagnostic done... nothing in the coolant, but there is a flow issue. I'm next going to a radiator shop to have the next test done. Anyone know how often water pumps go bad? It's a hi-flow,...
...you've got that EXACTLY correct Mudd.. and I certainly don't call myself an 'expert' by any stretch...
I feel like with over 2 million XJs on the road there should have been a clear fix to...
...out of ideas I just took the rig to a shop. They're telling me a weak hose was about to burst, and that I have an issue in the main seal.
..call me crazy, but I'm thinking neither of those...
UPDATE: Just loaded it up and left Friday for Mt. Shasta. Upon leaving the temp slowly crawled upward to the white line just before red. It took about 2 hours, and I was fully loaded for camping &...
solid input everyone-thank you...yeah- I'm gonna go with the discs..
Anyone got an idea of cost to convert? Should I go with used or new?
I planned on switching out the entire setup- plus diaphragm and master cyl.
Any recommendations on who to go with?
..Y'know.... religion is such an incendiary topic.. I'm really glad people here are level-headed for the most part.. THANK YOU. I grew up LDS as well.. I also studied multiple religious texts as...
Thanks everyone- just the info I was looking for =-) I was pondering going with bigger drums or just switching to discs.. I had been leaning toward that but wanted to make sure so, thanks again!
...I need to increase the braking power on my rig. The stock drums altho in great condition are still a bit weak for my liking. I'm finding myself very UNcomfortable going down a loose, off camber &...
..Yep this is true. I was originally very against drilling, but it's true- and I decided finally to go shortest route. Drilled & very thoroughly resealed area directly beneath light rack. I check it...
LoL Mudd.. they ARE decent tho!
...Yep! In Between Ft. Bragg & the 5, going north of Hwy 20. Stonyford OHV general Area above Indian Valley Reservoir. It was our first time to this particular area, and all the day trip did was make...
Thanks! ....yeah, I had a couple of other things come up that needed a little attention before getting the other replacements on there- replaced my battery with an optima... and then had a couple of...
Pics are in Mendocino Nat'l Forest.. I'll be posting more pics soon ...thanks! =-)
Here are some shots of the Pacific Ridge Trail, in the general area N. of Hwy 20 in Nor-Cal we did on May 01, 2010:

BTW, THANK YOU for that info.... exactly what I needed to know!
Nah, I just need about 1.5 - 2.0 inches. When my front suspension is under even slight flex they still make contact, and I need just a tad extra to clear them. You'd think that it wouldn't be an...
that's a great question.. I'm going to look into it this week! If things go right I'll have them installed by next monday.. Anyone else heard of this? Should those be reinforced before installing...
Well, that question had never been brought up. I don't do super extreme wheeling.. my rig is in the process of being more of an expedition vehicle than anything, if I had to classify it.. so I'm not...
...ok, good news. Come to find out that after all was said and done, there was a part of the battery cable which (as a result of the prior accident) had shifted and was grounding against the body,...
Well, all I can tell you is that I also had the roof of my rig treated. As I was getting ready to install the rack, I dropped my 4-cell maglite on the roof, and it just bounced off. No dent or ding....
