Now, don't be giving away all my secrets.  Actually though that's so we can 
remember each others names.  This is especially important if you're married.  
If we couldn't remember our own name we'd have to put it on the buckle -

You'll have to paint over or around those decals cause they're unobtanium.

You are correct. The Honcho came with 15x8 wheels and bigger tires and
as such, Jeep set the steering stops accordingly. Did your Honcho
originally come with 10-15LTs? If so, 31x10.5s are noticeably smaller so,=

I don't know. That's why I asked if you wanted to measure some critical

Well it would take care of it as someone pointed out already, but you
don't want a WT rear axle. They're narrower than any J-Truck rear axle by=

conditions, WT's D-44 is only 61 1/8".

I don't know that the axle measurements are on the J-10s. If you don't
have access to one, we would need help from the list. We can't go with th=
e
track widths published by Jeep because they refer to the standard wheel a=

tire only. Plus if you use Jeeps published track widths for my '79 WT,
you'd come-out a front to rear difference of 3 1/8". I measured both of
mine and found the real front to rear track width difference is 3.5".

I know the '76-'79 WTs and J-20s. And I have frame measurement data for
'76 and '79. I'd have to look at the data, then tell you to measure betwe=

X and Y, and what that measurement is on a '76. Without being able to do =

Subject: fsj: Towing

Howdy Folks!

In the next couple of days I'm going to be towing(maybe) my fleet one by one
to my new house via a tow dolly.  The cars that are stick shift don't worry
me, but I am concerned about the automatics.

With the transmission in neutral, going a distance of twelve miles, at
speeds under 40 mph, do I need to worry about anything bad happening?
Should I start the engines and let them idle while I'm enroute? (I didn't
think so.)  If a flatbed is not too much more, I'll go that route, but we'll
see.

What does this have to do with Jeeps?  Nothing.  However if I had a Jeep, it
would be mixxed up in here somehow.  And I know you guys will know the right
answers.  As always, thanks.

Next project after the rear brakes this week is to get the RC 3" lift on
my 
85 Grand. Does anyone have pics? (Maybe before and after, if possible).
Lemme 
know, K?

I'll post 'em soon...

Question for all FSJ'ers - After finishing the lift, I notice that the front
drivers side is 1" higher that the other three wheel wells.  I measured from
the garage floor to the lip of the well.  Looked at all of the bushings,
shims - everything.  Any ideas?  Don't know what it could be.
Thanks!
