Where at? And how bad are the pits? I'm down to ride out sometime depending how far it is from me. 772-233-7664

[mangoman123]

The pit isn't too bad. The pit and the one creek can get real bad after a lot of rain though. I'm near niceville. How about you?

Up at UWF in Pensacola

[mangoman123]

Oh about an hour and a half away. I10 makes it go much faster

[parrotparty]

yeah i just google mapped it. Thats not to bad.. maybe I'll make a day out of it sometime in the next coupla weeks. I met a guy around me here that knows some places in alabama that are pretty good(he claims)

[mangoman123]

Sounds good, yeah you gotta drive these places, and maybe I can ride out to bama with you in a few weeks. I really get bad mileage lol. New engine is on the horizon, after taxes lmao, and I'm gonna see what I get then lol.

[parrotparty]

Yeah I'm right there with you on that. And if you need a hand on anything let me know Id be down to help. And I'll let you know about bama whenever we decide to make that happen. I hear you on the mileage but I'm still not to bad but not where I should be

I am thinking of doing a 4.3l vortec swap. They make an adapter to bolt that motor up to my auto tranny. I've got all the wiring and computer and motor. May use the radiator right out of the blazer too. Wouldn't that be nice.

Several of us have been doing upgrades to our jeeps over the last few weeks. I have a 44/9 combo in my garage that I'm replacing a few parts on so I can put them under my jeep with a little stretch. Putti cherokee springs under the rear and looking for another set to put up front to strecth it. Picking up a set of 39.5/15/15 TSLs this coming weekend during my trip to Ms.

Should start on the swap next week some time.

DJ(Rexacon) sleeved, gusseted and replaced his front shafts with RCVs, aswell as a BL and 3.5 suspension lift. He's setting up for 37s so he can be the biggest JK in town.

[mangoman123]

Does anybody know if the auto 3speed from a 90 yj will hold up to the power/torque of a 4.3l vortec? Not sure what transmission name or numerical designation is lol

We're still not done with it. Got it all put back together last night at about 11pm, rolled it back out of the shop and the steering is stiff, almost impossible to turn, parked it off but the fence and called it a night, going to tare back into it today and hopefully sort it out.

We've put in two 12hr days on that JK, I'm honestly tired of looking at it.
