    Help! Ticking noise

    I found before sending one of the heads in for a stuck valve that 3 the valve top retainer plates had come loose, but that was on my 360.

    A NEW MSD 6AL for $61.00 ?!?

    Yeah, I checked with the BBB but they have no listing for these guys. Are there other sites?

    A NEW MSD 6AL for $61.00 ?!?

    Oops $69.00 I don't know if this is too good to be true but dig this for the NEW CDI module I found online; MSD Ignition 6425 6AL Control Box - $69.03 : I mean, if this is for real I'm going to snap one up, unless I'm missing something.

    What size rims?

    Thanks JPN, these 31's are wearing but still look new so I have no intention of going wider or taller. Just considering a wheel swap.

    Brand New to jeep, Should I buy this?

    X2 thanks for your time in service brother. Just from what I can see (that I had to do to mine) I got rid of those seats and it's much easier to climb in/out of. Also I saw an incorrect fuel filter, and the spark plug wires need to be better organized. Also the front/rear axle conversion looks...

    Used MSD ignition, is it worth it?

    I noticed a difference too! The motor runs like a top now. As I had a carbon issue on one of the intake valves I think I'm wanting a hotter spark. So far I went with getting everything ready so I purchased an MSD rotor cap and wires, the high volt TSI horizontal coil and the big block Ford...

    Please Help! Found an M 416 and need to know what to watch out for!

    Ratz! that's what I get for sleepin' in, he sold it to another guy even though I ensured my intention to purchase this the night before. Yeah, I've seen those HF ones JPN, but I like the idea of those M 461's as they're more robust at 1/4 ton and they share the CJ's bolt pattern on the hubs and...

    Please Help! Found an M 416 and need to know what to watch out for!

    I found an M 416 Jeep trailer for sale near me for cheap. For those of you who've seen or been around 'em what should I watch out for? It's a pintle hook up and looks fairly straight from the pics. I'm seeing this tomorrow afternoon so this is kind of a rush help thing. Thanks so much for your...

    Used MSD ignition, is it worth it?

    I think I remember JeepHammer mentioning the 6A analog box as it was a sealed unit for concerns of water crossings (or the infamous Oregon rains) ;) I don't think the digital ones are, unless I mistook the point he was making. At any rate I had a finances scare yesterday so it looks like I'll...

    Used MSD ignition, is it worth it?

    Thanks so much JPN, it's so good to receive your post as I've come to rely on your information. I would go with a new digital one but re-reading JeepHammers' posts he favored the non digital type for some reason.

    Used MSD ignition, is it worth it?

    Hi gang, a few years ago I was having spark carburation issues on 'Black Betty', I went with better plugs, MSD wires MSD Cap, and the large Ford Cap adapter following JeepHammer's excellent posts. Then I had a career meltdown, had some scheissekerl new supervisor that demanded to ignore customer...

    What size rims?

    Hi gang, On 'Black Betty' I have some late model rims and, if possible I'd like to retro it with Aluminum Slotted rims. The tires I have on her are 31x10.5x15. I'm trying to wrap my head around this but my years are taking their toll. Short of pulling one of the tires and taking it to the tire...

    Windshield

    A more affordable way to go is to increase your interval from the rig in front of you. Not trying to be a smart@ss but when I was young I had the same issue, following too close.

    Please Help - Strange 12v relay issue

    I took the foot dimmer from my Jeep and temporarily wired it in and they started working properly. Must be an overtaxed circuit somewhere. Made the wiring permanent (soldered and shrink wrapped) and got a new dimmer for my 5

    It's very gratifying when we encounter a problem and can determine the cause and readily repair.

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Installed a Standard dimmer switch into 'Black Betty' on account that I used the existing dimmer to address a bad Multifunction Switch in my van

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Very nice JpN. I added reflective tape to my housings several years ago

    Please Help - Strange 12v relay issue

    This is a new Multifunction switch, but give their design, I don't trust them. I have most of the underhood grounds going to a bus bar that connects with an 8 gauge cable to the negative battery post.
