You could have left one for Buggin to answer now he wont have anything to do today. Its to warm outside for painting and fixing stuff!

I can't get over how much the grass is growing over the warm spell, I've had to mow twice this week.
On that note I went Christmas shopping for my Sister and StepFather today. They both like to read so went to the Library and checked some books out for them. Wonder if they'll notice they are due back the day after Christmas :shock:

My buddy stopped drinking beer this year due to health issues, so I got him an empty keg, I mean he can't drink anymore so he doesn't need a full one. :wink:

My Brother In Law is not so good at repairing things, so I just him a hammer, handle is broken but you know he'll never use it anyways.
Well back to my Christmas list ..............

Don't forget the bag of bird seed for the neighbor that wanted an automatic cat feeder!

Well have to think of that one, I got a bag of bird feed and a feeder for my cousin who just got a brand new Chevrolet PickUp and doesn't have a garage.
never did really like him :twisted:

Has anyone ever had to drive their Jeep in "Front Wheel Drive" mode?

Like removing the rear driveshaft for whatever reason, and engaging 4x4?

I wonder how it feels is all. Is there torque steer and FWD pull? (Instead of a RWD "push")

tommudd · **Posted:** Thu Dec 12, 2013 3:07 pm

Ran an XJ about 20 miles that way on time ( had to go pick up a longer driveshaft)
and a 79 F150 from below Charlotte NC back to Ohio in "front wheel drive" ( tore the rear ujoint out, weekend couldn't find parts, last 90 miles was in a really great snowstorm-fun fun,. Too much sand in it from Daytona Beach during BIKE WEEK :roll:

)
So yes front can be sort of "heavy " when turning

Cell has been laying on the kitchen counter all evening, have to go move it to the bay window, bet I'll get the message you called then! Amazing what moving a phone 15 foot will do. 8 PM I was out in the garage at that time come to think about it
When I go to town tomorrow I'll get your message if you left one :-)r

Looks like about 1,500 calories, a case of heart burn and a roll of toilet paper once it kicks your gut :grim:

Gave up waiting , so heres Larrys new winch that we mounted up last Sunday. NOW no deer, no ice, no snow, no wind or rain should make him call and get me out of bed again! :roll:

For some reason he thinks his XJ with 4 inches of lift and 33s should be taller than mine :twisted:

Lol. I'd much rather be doing something else than sitting on the chitter for for 6hours. I dont think thats worth it. :shock:

At least drink a bottle of red wine to wash out the cholesterol in ur veins. Lol.
