• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

What a last 2 days

1.3qts!?! That thing was darn near empty! I can about imagine how tough it was shifting.

Ickie, if that thing doesn't have a million miles on it yet...and if she's game for any more maintenance on it someday...I'll suggest going with a synthetic gear lube in the tranny. Those 833 OD trannies are good units and I've had really good luck smoothing up the shifting by going synth.

Same goes for the rear-end lube.

I know you guys don't get anywhere near freezing down there so you don't have to worry about hard shifting when it's below zero, but a good synthetic will help keep those gears running cooler in the heat too.

Oh wait...I shouldn't be suggesting you find more work to do. Sit back and relax a bit! :173go1:
 
I had a jeep CJ-5 with a 232 straight six that just ran and ran and ran and ran and ran and ran..........

talk about low end torque....wow....

I bought it with 115,000 miles on it and drove it for another 100,000 with nothing more than regular oil changes.
