Mirror mounts differently with new bracket. Second image is the “before” and first image is the “after”.
 
Yeah at that angle it’s hard to see how the new mount works.
 
I did the best possible thing I went off road. Near to destination I saw my Transmission shifter flex 4 inches lateral. Time to retreat only 45 miles to the blacktop. Crawling down in 4 low I hear what sounded like my fan was coring out my radiator (it was). So for sure its new radiator, fan and fan clutch. I cant wait to discover the true damage lmao!

Ouch! :td:
Motor mounts, Transmission mount or a combination?

I have stiff springs. 7” wagons. 33 x 10.5 x 15. 20 lbs.
 
1978 CJ5 . I put on new 15x10 Black wagon wheels with 12.50x33x15 Atlas mud tires. And trying to figure out how much psi. to run.
The chalk test is the most accurate.
 
After reading that I’m sticking with 20ish. Maybe 22 to drive north in a couple days. But since it will be hot, and on the road all day, I might need to let some air out maybe just to get to that. :chug:
 
Finally replaced my front brake line. First time doing that! Flared the lines and put new tube nuts. Took it for a test drive. Now I need to bleed the lines and I’m ready for off-road again.

I ordered parts, damage was the result of a motor mount bolt that left. My body mounts had also gone bad, lost bolts ,body mount bushings so a whole new kit on the way too. the turn signal stalk will now wait another 6 months as will the park brake release lever.:cj7:

I find 20 is about right but rough on economy, 25 helps economy but the center section wears bad. I want a 33x9.50 on 6 0r 7 inch wheels and thats impossible.

No it's not. I've run a 33x12.5 on a 7" wheel with 25 psi without problems or heavy wear

I cant think of any tire maker doing 33x9.50 if you know one I would love to know. Nitto does a 33x9.5 but they say its not a DOT tire only for utv. Maybe it is just my tires Maxxis RZR 33x10.5 15 being wear prone.
 
Here's a couple options. I prefer wider 12.5 with 33s. I'm currently running 31 x 10.5 on factory wagon wheels and 33 x 12.5 on a 7" wagon wheel form a ford 47ad978c5c90e0cb287c3d9bdb2209c6.webp d9157349e88e9495a29837a38ff64cbc.webp

Oh that's some good smoked heaven right there Manic. Especially the whole hog and dual bacon explosions. Are those bacon wrapped jalapeños with sour cream as well?

Sure are.

Pig got a little dark but was absolutely delicious. We stuffed the pig with chicken as a trick to keeping the loins from drying out. We did brisket tacos for breakfast b4c7dd4648cc850644bbefdb4912a6ff.webp d519b025b1ebf56eae4a5ac1771284af.webp 04aecbbd32338b87a8999dfdc079ab64.webp 0ea4661be7f8015e8e0229362b243c21.webp 664d382e35f745b3a8aac5e2a9dbfdfb.webp d75c2374ae883830fe3fe2cf1d512dcc.webp

And I'm not supposed to get hungry watching this? Raining here at camp and I can't make a darn thing. 😕
 
That was overnight
