Well, as I type this, it's 1:08 am.
if it's not too bad weather wise, in the morning, I'm gonna head for the hump with the wrangler to break it in. Or break it. Whichever. Anybody interested?

Welp...just got back from the hump.
Learned a few things about the YJ.
Short wheelbase is fun as hell in the mud.
5 spd means pay attention to what you're doing with a short wheelbase in the mud
And, I need to find a way to either relocate the ign. coil, or make it repel water.
Oh, and a snorkel would probably be a good idea too.

Im very happy the change in ratio of gears in tranny did make a big difference from factory ba10 gotta down shift on taller bridges from 5th but it more of a overdrive any way.

That's a good idea. I was also thinking about a shroud for it. The fan blows water back and soaks the electric terminals for the coil. I kept having to dry it off. It was weird though, the water I was in wasn't very deep, barely the middle of the tires. I'll try the grease first though.


Thanks Walt.
