  1. Paging ShadowsPapa, @ShadowsPapa please come to the courtesy counter

    I've only used ATF to free up frozen pistons in antiques. It is amazing how it can get in between fused walls. Had an old twin hit & miss (might have been a Caldwell, can't remember) that sat under the leak in a guys roof for over fifty years completely rusted solid. A couple gallons of ATF...
  2. Paging ShadowsPapa, @ShadowsPapa please come to the courtesy counter

    Comet, it'll hone and score your cylinder at the same time! AND it makes a great dessert topping! Is there anything it CAN'T do?!
  3. Total surprise at the dealership shop today - NO CHARGE

    Ha! Retirement: Definition, noun. The false perception that you now have time to do all those things you weren't able to get to when your back and hands actually worked properly. Good to see you back, sir. Just ain't the same place without ya. Better still is any service free of charge...
  4. Well this sucks.

    Well shit, that turned out great. Congrats!
  5. You WILL buy a Gladiator and 37’s after you watch this - Off Roading explained

    Not only a harder compound, but the tread design doesn't allow for full width contact except for maybe 10% of the time as the "teeth" alternate side to side. The contact patch is really half the width. BTW if you want to try other LEGO tires, I might be able to accommodate. ? The bin o'...
  6. Noise when downshifting

    Muffler bearings. Hey Dave. ?
  7. Two Totaled Jeeps

    Those are the saddest pair of marshmallows I've ever seen.
  8. Just bought a 80th Edition!

    For some reason, it seems fitting for this thing to be rolling through the Alps. Congratulations!
  9. Really want a Gladiator but having trouble taking the plunge - help me do it!

    It's San Fran, there's absolutely no parking anywhere within six blocks of your destination. And even if you are able to find a spot regardless of the size of vehicle, you'll just have to move it for street sweeping anyways. And if you're lucky enough to own a spot or a garage, everyone will...
  10. STOP Sale on all Manual Jeeps [Update: software flash fix arrives in March]

    Ooops, my bad. Drakenstein said this: ...and I immediately went to the assumption that "gear box", in a thread talking about the clutch, meant transmission. I didn't think about the steering box. Totally on me. Carry on.
  11. STOP Sale on all Manual Jeeps [Update: software flash fix arrives in March]

    I'm a bit confused. Why did they replace your gearbox? There haven't been issues with the transmission, the recall focuses only on the clutch.
  12. What to plan for... keeping back hard top off extended period.

    I have the top and doors off and will likely run with my tube doors until late October. I have the cab cover from Mastertop and find it stupid easy to put on and take off, I do it every day when I get to work and when I get home mainly to keep sap and critters out. Takes maybe two minutes to...
  13. Gladiator Fire Truck

    There's a proper bush beast! Even has the Stihl on the back.
  14. Gladiator Fire Truck

    Hmm, seems kinda undersized in the rear. At least Gage and Desoto had a dually. Throw 3/4 ton axles on this with 35" M/Ts and a 2" lift in the very least and you might grab my attention. And if it's meant for "brush" then I better damn well see a couple Stihl 362s with 25" bars back there...
  15. Gasser real world fuel economy

    Stock Sport S manual here. I average 16.9 so far. I make a right turn out of my driveway and go for four miles without stop lights, signs, or traffic. Except an occasional deer in the road. ESS is irrelevant to me as is mileage and I never get into fourth. If I wanted something that gets...
  16. Lost my My Mother

    My condolences for your losses. Like everyone here I can offer up some beauty marks of this rock we're on that would impress and awe you; however, I won't only because peace is more than a destination, and peaceful is more than a goal. And yet to find, they require so much less. You can find...
  17. Measuring Flex

    Fork lift. Duh. :LOL:
  18. Clearing Brush with Gladiator?

    So much nope. That snow plow doesn't even look like it could move snow and you'll tear up your JT trying to move earth. Skid steer with a mulching/forestry head or a good sized tractor with at least a box gannon and a front end loader. And if you're not familiar with either, pay a pro. I've...
  19. New Gladiator Owner, Question Regarding 4H and 4Lo

    I think Timothy Leary would have answered this entire statement differently. Tune in, turn on, and drop it into 4H?
