Okay.
I can do that. Can’t honestly say I’ll get right on it, not all at once, since the shocks’ll cost $50 a pop and the driveway currently consists of barely frozen mud.
But I keep my promises. I’ll get on acquiring the parts, anyway. I thank you, LB thanks you, the Jeep’s springs thank you, my kidneys thank you.
TUAK now has 18 patrons, and between you you’ve replaced a long-standing and much-missed paying gig, the loss of which took some adjustment.
What do you think? Should I come up with another goal?
EDIT: TUAK now has 19 patrons. Thanks!
Long time reader here, Joel – well the past couple months or so at least. I’ve been meaning to get on making Patreon donations, but i know once i go down that hole it’ll include you, forgotten weapons, inrange tv, and a seemingly never ending list. Suppose i need to bite the bullet soon though.
Thanks for the daily reading!
JEEPS have shock absorbers?????? Dang. I never knew that.
And you’d never guess it from riding in the Gulch’s Jeep – which hasn’t had a functioning shock absorber in a long time.
Maybe a bleg for a transmission replacement.
Hubby and his dad swore by running a little brake fluid through a tranny that was having problems. Before you change the fluid and filter put a can of brake fluid in it to clean it up. I can’t remember how many miles you run it say 50 to a hundred, drop the pan, change the filter and refill. They kept a Gremlin going for years that way. There were some caveats, so you would need to do some research before you did it.
Judy, that “trick” stems from the fact that brake fluid is not compatible with most automotive rubber seals. When you put brake fluid in the transmission,it swells the seals up and the trans will operate better for some time ,but it’s not a long term fix-in fact it ruins the seals long term.It’s a crooked used car dealer trick.
