you should get a mini tank sticker made up for the rear window so we all know who ya r when on the trails, but then again the 4 inch cowl might give it away to
No matter everyone will know who I am out there. :teehee:
 
worked hard on removing stock horn on flat top knuckle. Over at Creepy Death's house, getting some help and playing dirty :teehee:
Sorry, I could have popped that off for ya before I sent it out, just didn't have much time away from the office. It works best with the knuckle attached to an axle mounted on a vehicle, but it can be done in a SOLID vise too. Heat the arm with a torch around the cones, especially in between them. Get it red then smack the shiot out of the far end with the biggest BFH you got, reheat and repeat until all the cones pop out, they will walk out one at a time.

Creepy Death and I got it done, kinda, we just cut the hell out of it with a grinder and the cones came out then Chisel and BFH got it done, still have couple studs left in it that need to come out, but let the machine guy deal with that.

so since you decided not to sell the explorer 8.8 does that mean you are narrowing the front 44? or just going to try to make it up with spacers?
yeah got 2" spacers., didn't want to go that way but everything is bolt in so for budget wise, best way to go right now.
 
yeah you'v got a rig that usualy stands out like the last one with a bronco or what ever winshield and you ran it 2wd for a while that gets to be known fast to lol keep it up ill send ya mine next lol

well finished ripping out everything on the inside as I need to do some touch up to the floors, and going to be putting in a cage so need it all out anyways. And after breaking 3 torx bits I took out the old carpenter knife and cut out the seat belts. Forget it I'm going with harness belts now. :yes:
First pic is of my new place, and I had to makeshift a place to keep the jeep for the winter, and as you can see where I added on. :teehee:

Yeah but my only problem is the more I tear it down and apart, I have no welder, nor know how to weld for that matter, so putting it back together, or at least back together to at least haul it somewhere to get done is kinda an issue at the moment. :teehee:
