  1. Manual Trans....what am I missing?

    I wouldn't hesitate to tow 6k with mine as is, but I don't have any need to with a cummins/69rAisin in my fleet. That having been said, I'll be upgrading the clutch/flywheel as well whenever they do need replaced.
  2. Manual Trans....what am I missing?

    I love my manual. That having been said, if it were my only vehicle it would've been auto with max tow.
  3. Manuals might be dead

    If the flywheel or pressure plate indeed came apart, that isn't a transmission failure. It's a flywheel or pressure plate failure.
  4. ROLl CALL- How many have you owned?

    I'll bite '89 Comanche '92 YJ '96 XJ '06 Libby '06 TJ '20 JT
  5. Manuals might be dead

    Seems after the 70's gas crunch the norm was straight 6 engines and high axle ratios. I had several of the late 70's early 80's trucks with the 240 or 300 and three on the tree. I remember one of my uncles trucks had the 300 six and a four speed overdrive. I don't know what the first gear...
  6. Manuals might be dead

    My 70yo, 100lb, gray headed babysitter drives mine to pick the kids up from school every day, and crawls through the school pickup line with it. She's never once stalled it out, or complained about the clutch feel, or the shift points. Hmmm. For my part, i just drive it like i stole it...
  7. Tired of the switch blade key fob opening. I found a cure

    Key opening in pocket??- problem solved. Cost??- my 7yo is one round short on his rubber band gun.. told him to work on increasing his accuracy to make his fewer remaining shots more effective....
  8. Manual Trans....what am I missing?

    With that tall sixth gear I I can't think of a single good reason not to go to at least 4.88s if regearing, maybe even low 5's.
  9. Manual Trans? Lift, Tires, Gears?

    Manual sport s, stock 3.73 gears, on 35's. Hard acceleration in 1st will bark tires, aggressive shift to second at red line will bark them again. Will run 65 in second gear and still crawl well in double low. The double overdrive would permit crazy low gears if desired, and still leave you...
  10. Manual Trans....what am I missing?

    Love my 3 pedal sport s. Highly recommend it.
  11. Does anyone not regret ordering a hard top when they bought their Jeep?

    You are correct, there is never any guarantee. I'm certain my hard tonneau could be popped in seconds with any type of pry tool. I simply don't leave anything under there I can't live without if I'm going to be parking at the boat ramp, or anywhere else with higher than usual break in rates, or...

    I leave a note on the window now. "DOORS UNLOCKED"
  13. Does anyone not regret ordering a hard top when they bought their Jeep?

    Speaking to the security vs soft top issue mentioned several times in this thread, this is my one ton at a boat ramp several years ago. Thinking ANYTHING is ever secure in a vehicle with standard glass windows is a fools errand. A thief that will cut your hard top will be equally satisfied...
