    Anyone have experience with Aussie Lockers?

    I'm asking for a Jeep application, but they make them for D60 as well so maybe someone here has experience with them. Basically they drop in, in place of the pin and spider gears, and you go from open diff to limited slip/full lock without having to pull the ring and pinion apart. Still...

    Leveling a bathroom floor...

    So, I'm making progress on my rental renovation. Bathroom time. Question for builders/plumbers in the group (I'm "handy", but don't do this for a living or anything). Toilet is about 16" from exterior wall. Cast iron pipe, not moving it. Floor drops 7/8" within 22" of the exterior wall, then...

    So I'm seeing a lot of SB mopars on Mecum...

    ...and I have a question. More than a few of the engine shots, of multiple small blocks, both orange and turquoise, show the water bypass hose (water pump to intake) and its clamps, painted block color. Is this correct? Seems odd to me...but so many of them are like that, it must not be...

    Hardwood floor questions

    So, I have hardwood in my house. I had hardwood in my rental (original, 75+ years old), but a tenant (and her dog, and all the mice from her being a f'n SLOB) ruined it. So I'm remodeling the rental. I'm at the point I have to decide what floor covering I'm doing, so I can set cabinets (more...

    East Coast diesel prices?

    So, I'm getting ready to make a trip in a (borrowed) RV - a 40' Newmar Ventana 3962 diesel, towing my '06 Wrangler behind. Heading down the east coast (I95 corridor) to the FL keys and back. Got 100 gal on board so I have options for where to stop, if pricing is significantly different from...

    Anyone in Lubbock, TX? College kid in need...

    So, my stepdaughter is at Tech. She's got her 250k mile '08 Dakota V6 six speed manual extended cab, and it's getting...janky. Last it was here, I put a clutch in it because the disc grenaded. Did everything - disc, plate, bearing, hydraulics. Trans has started jumping out of gear, getting hard...

    Aftermarket cruise?

    So, this is for my Wrangler but the aftermarket "universal" kits could work on our B's as well, so I figured I'd ask - anyone ever install one on a car? I'm looking at a Rostra kit for my Wrangler. Looks pretty straighforward - has DIP switches for number of cylinders and other settings, it...

    Keys

    So I'm stupid, that's a given. But I just cannot remember... I got my charger a few years ago. Pentastar ignition key, round trunk key. Neither one unlocks the doors. I'm pretty sure on my '72, the pentastar is the doors, too, and the round is just trunk (and maybe glovebox?)...yes? I'm...

    'Tis the season....what are your upcoming winter projects?

    Time's coming (at least here in the salt-and-brine-addicted northeast) to park the ol' classics for the winter and start fixin' stuff we didn't want to sideline them with during the "fun" season. We still have some great driving weather (and scenery when the leaves start to change)...but since...

    WTB WTB 82209481 Mopar cruise control for jeep TJ

    I know. Not a B body...but it's a Mopar. We're talking about driving my TJ Wrangler from MD to key West for Christmas...but with my rebuilt legs, I need cruise control. Without it, my right ankle and calf just lock up. Big metal rod in my fibula + **** circulation = massive pain within about an...

    Anybody ever sound-insulate a room?

    So, I have a rental duplex and one tenant has absolutely DESTROYED a unit. I won't get into all of it here as it makes my blood boil...but suffice it to say I will have all the studs exposed including the ceiling. This is an over/under duplex, not a side by side, so in order to cut noise between...

    Anyone familiar with A413 auto trans? Supposedly a 904 in a FWD case...

    Anyhoo, this is in my '90 Voyager turbo and I figured I'd ask here as well as on the turbo sites, to get a consensus. 3 speed non-lockup. Van had an issue of wrong-gear starts for a while; would always start from a stop, in second. I'd drive around the problem by manually putting it in first...

    Gasoline spill in workshop, OSB subflooring

    So, I was working in my shop yesterday on a motorcycle. Moved some stuff around, including an old fuel tank. Apparently, I hit the lever on the petcock and opened the valve....and it dumped a good bit (I'd say over 2 gal) of stale unleaded all over the floor. Of course, it soaked into the wood...

    Scan tool recommendation?

    So, this is (obviously) for a late-model car... My Matco OBD-II scanner is in Texas, with Michelle's daughter. She had it for the drive to college last fall, in the 08 Durango, because it had an intermittent evap code and I wanted her to be able to clear it if needed, during the trip to school...

    Plumbers - building code question, sprinkler pipes

    So, at work, we have a 2" water feed line that runs the length of our performance room (I work in a live music venue). Figure...a 100' run. There are (4) 90 degree bends in the pipe, to clear what used to be a roll-up garage door - instead of going straight, it comes in, turns left; turns right...

    Debate. LA 360, or 5.9 Magnum?

    So, I have one of each. This is for my 72 Satellite wagon. Current motor in the car is a mild LA 360, unknown specs. Dual plane, manifolds not headers, no crazy cam, iron heads but I'd have to check for casting numbers. Runs....meh. I could build this up. Or, I have a (admittedly high...

    Judgement call - home heat pump repair

    So, my heat pump has been acting up. Aux heat works, but it's $$$$ so I had a company I've worked with in the past, come out and diagnose. Turns out, the control board on the exterior unit took a power hit and is DOA. $109 diag trip, I'm good with that and it's paid and done. He checked...
