^^^ THat's where I tried to learn this shiit, right there!!! @DNP had me on the first buried turkey in 2004!
-
We need to open that bar on my property, that's the gun shop, range, engine shop with MX track, lake, camping spots around the lake with hookups for RVs. It goes right next to the steakhouse, that's right in the middle...

Oh, you have to buy the beer for this - but I don't charge labor for projects like this... not with friends... I roofed a guy's house in Cincinnatti for beer. 2-story, and the peak was sketchy-steep, and he bought enough beer to try to kill me...

I'll rebuild that 4.0L for you, fool. Weekend is all we need, if the parts are on hand already, and pre-positioned (shipped HERE, just like ammo for a Fall Shoot....)... That's one of the easiest engines in the world to rebuild. Fuckin' simple, brother. Need axles re-geared? Done. T-case or trans rebuilt? Whatever. (Just don't tell me it's that damn automatic - I ain't touching that thing) Add more weekends if you want trans and t-case rebuilds. Except for that automatic - take that bitch to AAMCO... Gimme a week down here, and that's engine, manual trans, t-case rebuilds. Done. Axles - we'll muscle through them in the time we have. I have presses made to do the long side axle seal on the D30 front. Everything else, whatever. I'm IN...

No such animal. That's BS. There's no reason to get rid of it- because you'll never be able to get anything like that back. The new Jeeps are shiit. If you sell that '97, then...

Can the engine in the '87, junk it. Don't do anything to the '97. You know I own a '93 YJ with a 6" coil conversion, right?... Lockers front & rear, full-floated the rear, manual-hubbed the front (you can see the locking hubs front and rear, in the below pic), warn axle conversions throughout, NP231 main shaft conversion, double-cardan short rear driveshaft, cage, engine mods for days... If you need Jeep mods, lemme know. I can advance your ignition timing with a drill bit. We need to mod your MAP sensor after that though...

Saving this for later, but I know it can never disappear - too many have is saved already, (for later)... She can't possibly be THIS STUPID, can she?! Seriously?...
-
I'd like to start a new contest called "THIS BOTCH IS SOOOOO STUPID!!!" but we'd never have a real winner. AOC would sweep it every single month. She's now saying that the Hurricanes target vulnerable communities... Wait!! WHAT?!!? She said that the hurricanes are targeting vulnerable communities FIRST?!? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS, HERE?!!? Yeah, that really happened. Read the article, with her enclosed Twit - from the twit... https://www.foxnews.com/media/aoc-hurricane-dorian

Kit build adjustment help, (headspace, Bolt catch)

This is an issue, and it sound like the issue of trying to combine Armalie AR-10A platform parts with Armalite AR-10B parts. Specifically, the differences between 10A and 10B uppers and lowers. Research the differences between the Armalite AR-10A and 10B platforms - there are vids on YT covering this. Next, your PA-10 Gen 1 or mk1 as you say - was such a giant heap of shiit that they stopped making it on short order, and came up with their Gen 2 designs. I can't tell you what the differences are, but there were TONS of problems with PSA Gen 1 PA-10 guns. Too many to list, and too many for PSA to keep up with, so they just scrapped it and went right into Gen 2. You might want to think about just throwing that upper straight in the trash, or recycling it for the aluminum weight, and starting with something else that works. Not being harsh - being realistic. Maybe we can get a PSA Rep on here to explain the differences between their first try, and their Gen 2 design... Doubt it, though. -

With a 7 5/8" internal depth extension, you should be running a 3.250" length buffer that's 5.4oz. Close enough, with your 4.7oz, to ensure function. You gas tube looks like it's the right length, even with the funky angles in the pic you posted. Don't play with the recoil spring, since you're this far - put the Armalite EA1095 spring in it. That way, you'll have a reliable recoil system, slightly light buffer - but it shouldn't cause you functional issues, with that spring. Recoil system, check. Done, for now. You need to sort that headspace issue out, next. -
That engine in that Charger is the old-skool 12V Cummins, last year of that engine was in 1998 or 1999. Right after that was the 24V engine, and it was different - but not as easy to get power out of, like that older 12V.

First year of the YJ jeep was 1987. That thing had the carbed 258ci engine - the 4.2L - through the 1990 model year. The '87~'89 had a shiiit transmission, the BA-10, stay away. The '90~'91 went to the AX15 (decent trans) but still the 4.2L. 1991 saw the first 4.0L engine, and all the '91 YJ and all TJs had the AX-15 - unless it was the TJ Rubicon model. Early TJ Rubicon models still had the AX-15 trans,but that sweetass NP241OR t-case, with the 4.0:1 low range. 2000-ups had the NV3550 trans - far superior to the AX-15 (which ain't bad, but...). Shop wisely. I'm here for you guys. My "gun shiit" started with RX-7 shiit, then Jeep shiit... a LONG TIME AGO...
-
If it's the 2.4L 4cyl, gotta dump the trans, too - that was the AX5 trans. Buy the 4.0L and the trans together, and you'll get the AX15 trans with it. If he gets REALLY LUCKY, and finds a 4.0L out of a 2000-up TJ, it'll have the NV3550 trans, which is a badass manual. It'll also have two different transfer cases behind it. It's gonna have the NP231, which is a good t-case, or it might have the NP241OR t-case. 231 has a low range of 2.72:1, the 241OR has a low range of 4.0:1. Find the 241OR if you can. Find a totalled 2000-up Wrangler Rubicon with a manual trans, and that's the 4.0L eng, NV3550 trans, 241OR t-case. That is one BADASS combination...

Hey, not my fault that your butchers up there don't know that there's a difference... I'm glad that I could enlighten you that... it's two different cuts, and one smells like shiit...
-
Jeep burritos on INTAKE manifolds is the sheeit, when you're wheelin'. There's no way to cook on an exhaust manifold... You'll blow it out and burn it.
-
NICE!!! Hell yeah!!! That Scout is the SHEEEIIIIIT!!! When Jeep got eaten up by Fiat/Chrysler and they dropped the 4.0L straight six, they really fucked up with that gay V6 that's in there in the new junk. The start of the great 4.0L Jeeps was the YJ. The end of the great Jeeps was the TJ and LJ. Everything else, with that V6, just sucks, if you don't swap it to a V8 - or BACK to a straight 6.
-
Fucker... When your batteris fail and your wireless network is down - and isn't coming back - come down here and we bury shiit in the ground... and eat like kings... Different cuts?...
-
Maybe - without all that shiit-smellin' fat on them. This is irony, at it's finest. I can unpackage a Butt, no issues. Unpackage a Shoulder, and it smells like pig shiit?! Was that pig backwards, or something?...
-
That's because it's running the only derivitive of a real semi engine, brother - the Cummins...
-
Unless you had the 6.0 L engine. That one was the Power Joke... Headgaskets left and right, and the real answer was ARP headstuds and run a 7-step torque pattern all the way up to 245lb/ft of torque...
-
Spill the details on that camo'd Jeep TJ in the background, man...
-
That evil WOMAN! Watch your ass, brother - keep your eye on her!...
-
As a test, right after I got the 45-70 and came up with my handload - I put the XS sight rail and sights on it, and tossed a Primary Arms mini red dot on there. I wanted to see how long the dot would last under that recoil. That was December 2015. That red dot is still on there, with 700 rounds through the rifle... Shocks the shiit outta me...
-
We need a fire like this, right here... Here's the whole skit... You'll be a 7-year old walkin-the-dog no-house motherfucker...
-
It's not science, just time and heat. And you can't adjust it. I'm in - that's where we've done a Turkey, a 10lb pork butt, and 2 BIG racks of ribs before - in the same fire. Damn that was a HUGE FIRE the night before. Butts. I hate the smell of shoulders - they just smell like shiit, literally, and there's a HUGE fat layer over them. We'll need a big, hot fire the night before, need to stay up late and keep stoking it with wood once it gets hot - need ALOT of red coals in the morning, when we bury this pile of meat. What @DNP isn't telling you @shepp - he does this every year at his church - and they have HUGE LONG firepit for this. Turkeys. Wrapped in wetted muslin and burlap. He's been doing this longer than anyone I know - and he's pretty damn great at it. In MY early "duning days" with him, this was the normal for Thanksgiving - that's just what we did every year. I got courageous and wanted to put other meat in the ground during T-Day, and started with ribs, to accompany the turkey. The next year, I progressed to pork butts, and another foiled packet of potatoes, carrots and onions, and butter/garlic/salt. It just got better every year. Then, portable smokers came out...
