Hi all,
I hope what I am about to write will not offend
anyone, or have anyone think different of me, but here
it goes. If it does, then please accept my appology
now.
I am currently employed as a "systems technician",
fancy word for help desk! We currently support our 83
branch offices across the states. I have been here
for a year, because the previous employer decided to
close shop. I have decided to go out on my own doing
cable and network installs and building computers.
That won't happen till April or so, so now is the time
I need to pick up some side jobs. (Side jobs pay for
Jeep improvments ;).
I am A+ certified, and have many certificates from
Okidata, Lexmark, HP, Compaq, and Novell. I have
class certificates from MS Access, Crystal Reports, MS
Office 2000, and a few others. I know most of us here
are "computer geeks" and are capable of doig your own
stuff.
What I am looking for is small to medium size jobs. I
am very reasonably priced for building computers,
installing networks, setting up networks, and providng
support services to everything that I build. I am
also a "handyman" on the side, always building
something for my house, building out rooms for
friends, etc, so the work that I do is professional.
If it is a network run, then the drops run through the
ceiling and down the walls, not along the floor and
around door ways!
If anyone is interested, personally or for thier
business, please contact me and I can give you a
quote.
Thanks again, and I hope you don't feel I am abusing
my membership in the "club".
Mike Baney.

To the best of my knowledge, if you don't move the pinion, you won't
need to reset the gears. When installing a Lockright on my YJ D30, we
had to pull the carrier and remove the ring gear, but didn't reset the
gears as the pinion stayed in place.

You either need to remove the carrier or grind a little off the gear.
Removing the carrier is not a big deal as long as you put the ring gear
back on in the same place and keep straight which bear race goes were.
It is a tight fit so be ready to catch it when it finialy comes out.

Hey does anyone have rear disc brakes? If so how hard and is it to change
them out on a 97 Tj? What kind of price am I looking at? What kind of
performance difference is it?
Thanks,

I've seen a few kits out there. It seems that the TJ Dana 44 kits run around $600. From what I've seen its basically a bolt on. I've considered it but since I'd rather upgrade to Tera Dana 60's with discs front and rear I'm holding off.

If you ever wondered about the satellites that give us so much GPS information you can learn a great deal about them here. Very cool site. You can watch the tracking of a satellite path or all satellites. It is getting very crowded up there.

It is a major undertaking. you will also need the transmission,

like something the kiddies would really enjoy doing. Plus, it's a good

To the best of my knowledge, if you don't move the pinion, you won't
need to reset the gears. When installing a Lockright on my YJ D30, we
had to pull the carrier and remove the ring gear, but didn't reset the
gears as the pinion stayed in place.

You either need to remove the carrier or grind a little off the gear.
Removing the carrier is not a big deal as long as you put the ring gear
back on in the same place and keep straight which bear race goes were.
It is a tight fit so be ready to catch it when it finialy comes out.
