One thing Gaz mentioned is really important. It depends which engine you have. The 3.0l makes max torque and hp around 3500rpm. So, if your driving it at lower rpms, it will feel more sluggish and weak. Wind it out a bit. No matter which engine you have, learning to drive it in its power band...

Electric radiator fan conversion may gain a tiny bit. There's not really a lot of aftermarket support out there. Is it the 3.0l? Changing differential gearing gets the most bang for the buck. Doesn't add horsepower. Just changes how you use what you have and makes it feel better.

Someone may recognize it. Or it might not even be part of that vehicle. I found money laying on top of the engine (coins) in my Superduty.

Welcome to TRS!

Doesn’t sound so bad when you put it that way.

Maybe this will help. https://www.therangerstation.com/how-to_pages/gear_ratio_tire_size_chart.shtml

Sounds like bad connections or the alternator is going bad. Need to know battery voltage at rest, engine off, after several hours. Then, battery voltage with engine running, at least 5 minutes after starting. When inspecting connections, both positive connections AND negative (ground)...

The funny part about this picture is that his camera doesn't have a viewfinder to look through. He loves that camera. Lots of pictures taken and some of them turn out good.

What Robbie said. To expand on that; the fuel pump relay coil is grounded by the ECM. The fuel pump power circuit is grounded elsewhere. On my 93, it's the ground on the driver side inner fender in the engine compartment, right next to the starter relay.

What I was trying to say is; the starter worked because it has good enough connections. But your connections going to other circuits are bad, causing intermittent trouble with the fuel pump and probably other things.

The starter circuit has different power and ground paths, not shared by the fuel.pump.

Good catch. I moved it. It wasn't totally wrong since suspension and frame work is extremely important to your build. But that other forum is intended more for help questions pertaining to suspension and frames. Thank you.

If it’s like the older bumpers, piece #10 is an angled bracket that helps support the outer ends of the bumper. It should mount to the bumper and the inner bracket #7. You should see it if you look up inside the bumper.

All of the above. My trip was certainly an adventure.

But does it have SMORR just a short drive down the road? :stirthepot:

Too much to see in half a day. Lots of cool stuff. Needs to be a TRS spring event with time to explore SMORR

My tools consisted of whatever metric wrenches, metric Allen's, tire changing tools, tube patching tools, would fit in a 2 1/2" x 12" plastic tube. Plus a digital multimeter and roll of electrical tape. I, too, was surprised to see the rollback that night. Maybe they live close and are personal...

Went through deep water and ingested it. Removed plugs and got the water out.actually had it running enough to get out of the park. But it was running very poorly. Milkshake oil. He changed the oil and had new distributor cap and tfi module. But it wouldn't start again. Justin may have more details.

We had those Saturday night with burgers at the campground.

Home, at last. Next time, I'm going to ride naked and grease the seat and my butt to prevent chafing.
