I think the thread locker instructions are kind of silly, considering you heat up loctite to remove a fastener. I just picked nickel anti seize because it had a higher temp rating than copper. I don't know a bunch about titanium, but I think grade 6 has the best thermal expansion qualities...

Two on top first, then hold those in place by clamping the mic, grab third wire from nearby surface, slowly open mic while keeping the rotating anvil pressed down against the top two wires, open until third wire slips in and close to measure. Gets a bit trickier above 1" diameter

If you don't want it to gall slap some nickel based anti seize on it. If you don't want to have to drill through it, don't snap it off. Even the shiniest bit from home Depot isn't going to magically go through a hard bolt, grade 8 or titanium, let alone when being used in a hand drill. If...

Idk, you'll probably need to drill out two holes and maybe enlarge a slot? Should fit like the factory manifold? And stop thinking about me naked

I can make you a set out of plastic if you'd like

Pretty sure all model years came with bolts and heavy cone washers. Most likely whatever hardware was leftover from the AMC days...

No problem. Just to be clear, do not use the regular POR 15 on your exhaust, that won't end well lol. This is the stuff I used. Brushed on easy, think I did one coat, maybe two. https://www.google.com/amp/s/por15.com/a/s/products/high-temp

Well, I forgot again to message him. I just sent him a message now, his site says he'll probably get back to me within 48hrs and I can let you know what he says. I haven't had any issues with the studs coming loose, they still look as good as new too. If you're painting your manifold too, I...

Can you specifically tell me where I broke my word, or what I even promised to do? I honestly don't know what you're getting at? I'm also not sure how I was a jerk to him? I didn't say anything mean when he decided he didn't want the fittings, I just dropped it. Then I went to the dunes with...

I mean yeah, I could've paraphrased all of our emails, but that's just a lot more work and leaves room for he said she said BS. All of the trust and respect there was between Blaine and I went out the window when he decided to throw such a fit over a thank you for some chapstick, not even that...

I'm glad he supported them too, worked out pretty well for me!

My new heat treated tie rod showed up since I won 2nd place in the Ride of the Year competition. Really thought a TJ flying through the air at 50 mph had that contest in the bag, but oh well. Not really sure why there was an extra $100 taped to the tie rod. I guess @mrblaine just really must...

Replaced the pressure regulator yesterday and it didn't make any difference. Pulled the fuel rail off and prime the system and none of the injectors leaked at all. Ended up pulling the pump and swapping swapping the pump out of the sending unit for another used one I found at a junkyard a...

Then after a little tinkering today and yesterday, I got the truck fired up. I think the fuel pressure regulator is bad, gonna try to find a new one around town tomorrow and see if it fixes it. Not sure what the next order of business is, maybe cleaning up the wiring and improving my fuse...

Went up in the snow last weekend with a buddy. We tried to get up to Elk lake near Detroit, OR, but we could only get within 2.5 miles before turning around. I wanted to keep going, but my friend was getting a little worried I was gonna get us stuck up in the mountains lol. I really need to...

Got the O2 sensors in on the truck today and got the PCM mount installed. Funny enough it was premade lol. This was another piece from Flyin Iron Fabrication, I also used his ignition coil brackets. $34 and a few nutserts later and it was mounted on the fender like his website shows. I...

Thanks for mentioning it, I hadn't seen those ones yet, but not really what I'm after. Premade stuff always sounds nice in my head, but then I always see the price tag and realize I'm way too cheap for it.

Here ya go Got the trans cooler plumbing finished up. Just gotta run a power wire to the back of the truck. Got the upper radiator hose finalized and the steam line hooked up. It's pretty tight with the air intake, but it all seems to fit. Gotta pick up some parts for the PCV set up...

Why does everyone always ask me that lol
