I don't know if your ISP for azvjc.org can help you on setting up a mailing list, that way you wont have any advertising there at all, and since you already are paying or getting the webspace (on the website) I'm sure you can do it.

You may require to download a Majordomo program (only the webmaster) so people can subscribe and unsubscribe by just emailing it.

Its just a thought, I got it set up in Alloffroad.com and works fine for me, 400+ people in our mailing list and works great. We don't have the same email traffic the azvjc has but I don't see why It would not work.

Paying $90 or so a year is not a lot for the number of people is in it, but why to spend money on something you can get for free.

What about some kind of poker run for AZVJC? I am sure we could raise a
few clams to get no advertisements...

It was just a matter of time before they figured out that we weren't seeing
the ads, as they were posted below the signature lines. Which in most
cases, was below the message body. The choice is before us... deal with it,
or shell out the Duckets..... Judging by past experience with this group,
I'd have to say most of us will take it lying down....

What do y'all think of the ads on top of the messages? Is anybody
besides
me annoyed by them?

Egroups has a 'no advertising' option for the groups, but it costs $59.40
per year ( http://www.egroups.com/info/noads.html ). It looks like
the
1FSJ group is going to take up a collection to dump the ads.

Comments? Suggestions? (the Bill Luke treatment perhaps?)

Or should I just shut up and live with it? :-)

I would suggest a wide track wagoneer. They are approximately 3-4 inches
wider than a stock YJ. They can be picked up cheap ($100-300). Another
alternative is a scout front end. They are slightly narrower than stock,
though. I have problems with my shocks hitting my brakes with the stock
axle, so I prefer the wider track. 3 or 4 inches is nothing for a front end
anyway. Just be sure to get a wagoneer without the stupid vacuum connect
mechanism. Some the early model 44's also have flat top knuckles, which are
very good to have for a high clearance steering conversion.

Just my 2 cents,
Patrick

P.S. I HATE those stupid ads, too.

You could use most anything for that I suppose. The narrow track wagoneer
would be a closer fit, or the scout front end. It seems everyone wants to go
wider these days, though. Good reasons for it, too. Atleast, on the trail
that is.

It's actually $59.40 per group per year, not per person. The payment
must come from the moderator. If I don't hear back positively soon
regarding my complaint, I'll foot the bill for this year.

I imagine they are getting complaints from quite a few of their 18

There is a way to get it done... for FREE... here is it:

www.paypal.com gave me $5 for each referal I make, that mean if some of you go there, add my email as referal and sign in with your credit card, I will get $5 and it wont cost you anything.

So if someone of you gets an account and 11 or 12 people sign in, you will get the money and those banners will go away..

Just another Idea it could be done.

Some wagoneers with ¿quadratrac? transmissions have the diff on the right side, the only drawback is you must go with 6 lugs, and the rear differential it is not centered, I am not totaly sure about that.

Chris, also one of those J Jeep trucks, are 8 lug D44/60 would be a good combo IMO.

I'm confused. The YJ needs a left drop front axle if it has a NP231 tcase. The quadratrac transfercase (not transmission) had right drop front and rear axles, not left front and right rear. Swapping out the 231 would be the only option for running a righthand drop front D44.

To my knowledge the *only* vehicle that came stock with a left drop D44 is the late 60s-early 70s broncos. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I would say the narrow track Wagoneer would be a better fit. Also, the scout
(as far as I know) has the diff on the wrong side for a YJ.

Also people swap early bronco front 44's into YJ's. A little more bracketry
to remove but no big deal.

Older Grand wagoneer's and I think cherokee's came with a left hand front
diff dana 44 6 lug rear
I have seen the 20 back and the 44 front put in a wrangler works good just a
little wider I think it came out of a 90 grand wangoneer the one that looks
like it has wood on the side
the 20 has on piece axles

Check JeepsUnlimited.com because a couple people there have it but they are having problems banging the arms on rocks and them breaking. I talked with Ryan at RE and asked about the long arm upgrade (just the belly pan and control arms) and he said it would be shipped close to January if I ordered it now. He also said they are working on re-engineering the arms so they don't get his so much but they were still selling the current setup.

Has anyone out there installed the new "Extreme Long Travel Suspension" from Rubicon Express? If so, who installed it and how does it perform?

Our money???
I did'nt see any of you at the BLM Ironwood Forest National
Monument meeting. I know it's impossible to attend every meeting
and every clean-up in the state. So that was not a snide comment.
The Blue Ribbon asked Terry Heslin to ask those who
had attended what they thought of the meeting.
Two people who I do not know got a very warm and
fuzzy feeling from the BLM. They feel comfortable
with letting the BLM handle it. So now Blue Ribbon is
considering dropping Ironwood from the lawsuit.
I could not bear to lose one route out there!
I e-mailed Adena Cook my not so warm feelings about
Fransico Mendoza. I also snail mailed the hand-outs we
received from the BLM. I suggest they NOT drop Ironwood
from the lawsuit! Let us not forget the city council that contacted
Babbit to push this land into a national monument (that BLM
is underfunded to take care of) without ANY public input
in the first place.
