    LS Engine Swap, why?

    People throw Chevy engines into Mazda RX-7's all the time. People throw big block Chevy's into classic GTO's and ruin the value. Chevy engines are everywhere, just like crack cocaine. We all see addicts everyday, but that doesn't mean we wanna be like them. Sure, people swap in Chevy...

    Cool option for mounting a "step" to access the bed

    Risks of driving without one drive shaft?

    Someone please correct me if I am wrong but I thought high lock activated the front drive shaft. I think this is a bad idea. I believe you need to use another setting on the transfer case that does not engage front axles, or you can spend $50 and rent a car for cheap and effective insurance...

    Spindle Replacement & alternate a/c options

    Three studs can't cost more than 20 clams. The work involved might take 15 minutes. Changing a spindle will cost for new spindle and grease and time...1.5-2 hours for a novice, and you better pray spindle stuff is torqued and tightened properly. I love ya' Juan, but I would swap the studs...

    Spindle Replacement & alternate a/c options

    You seem like a good guy, but sometimes you say things that confuse me. If there is nothing wrong with the spindle, why go through all that effort? Punch out the old studs and pull in the new ones. I've done this countless times on countless motor vehicles. As long as you can spin the spindle...

    Spindle Replacement & alternate a/c options

    Assuming they are the same as any other stud on any other vehicle... They are most likely press fit. You can press them out or VERY CAREFULLY tap them out with a hammer. The new studs then need to be press fit. Get several large washers...like 10 or 20. Place the stud into the hole, place a...

    24v to 12v converter?

    First, before you make this decision, you need to tell us how much amperage you are going to require. You need to tell us what type of equipment you will be running. If you are just going to charge a cellphone, a simple 2Amp converter that plugs into a lighter is available. If you are going...

    I stopped buying Optima when they closed USA manufacturing sights and relocated South of the anticipated wall. I buy solid state Odyssey now. Small, reliable, huge cranking amps at -40. Accept marine battery discharges. Best, T

    storing my humvee for 3 months

    Guys: The poor guy just earnestly wanted to know how to store the HMMWV. Garage, disconnect batteries and trickle charge, and when you start for the first time in a few months, crank engine a few times prior to allowing it to start so oil clings to cylinders. Chocking wheels and such is never...
