Technical Advice and Questions / Re: Should I or Shouldnt I?

Well, at least YOU told her before hand.....I never say a word to Nancy until afterwards and ONLY if she sees something or asks which is hardly ever anyway.

She's really only ever asked "When is it going away for good?"

LOL!  I've tried that in the past and when she would find out, shit hit the fan!  Like when I dropped $400 on my espresso machine....and it's a refurbished one at that!   

I've been putting a ton of cash into her Audi....nothing serious, brakes, ABS, stuff like that....problem is, I dont feel comfortable working on her car....I really do wish she would have let me get her a Wrangler back when we got that Audi....oh well....

So I take I really dont need much else to do the SYE-driveshaft install?

Technical Advice and Questions / Re: Hard Top Soft Top

« on: March 26, 2008, 08:44:30 am »

Me...I love the "noise"!  Music to my ears....

I would think choice of rubber will make a big diff also....

But I started with a hard top and full metal doors, sold both the hard top and the doors to help offset the cost of lifting it....that left me with a little left over to go towards the purchase of my BestTop Supertop with 2-piece soft-doors.

Like Rick said, it's all personal preference....heck, I've ran it with a bikini top and a windjammer in the middle of winter before.  Granted, that's been awhile....

I like being able to take the doors off in a moments notice, zip-out the side windows and take the back window out....love it....

Told MaryAnn that I needed to drop some $$$$$ on the Jeep....she didnt really say anything....I take that as a "whatever", you are going to do what you are going to do.

Yea, you are right Rick....I just need to do the SYE and new driveshaft....

SO, besides the SYE and the driveshaft....any other things I have to replace while I'm doing that?  I dont want to buy the SYE and shaft only find out I need some other item to make everything work!

I have a "thud" at times that I'm pretty sure is related to the angle of my rear driveshaft....I'm lifted 4" with no tranny drop....right now I'm thinking of going with rear upper adjustable control arms....I have a $100 cert that I got at last year's show....I know, I always seem to get something decent but I spent $100 to get it....anyways, I am thinking of doing that first to take care of the problem before dropping $500 on a SYE and new driveshaft....

Just looking for some adviice either yea or nay....

Thanks,
Jim
