Actually, I was typing faster than i was thinking! The rear axle is a Dana 44, center differential, but the front axle is the original Dana 25, with the offset differential. I'm still finding my way around this thing, and remembered the details wrong! I'me still not sure which Tremec transmission is in this thing, just that it is a 4-speed with an overdrive.bruce wayne said:so let me get this straight, you have a center pumpkin on the FRONT axle? did you have to do any adjusting of the transfer case?
i use to be really, really, into early jeeps (pre-chrysler). i remember finding a fiberglas body kit call the hum-j7 that was a cross between a cj-7 & a militay humvee. it would allow one to run 35 inch tires without a lift of any kind!!!
Highlander, Thanks for the compliment! The hat is an Akubra Riverina, and the many of us here at the Lounge that now have them owe it to Mike K. I saw his when he sported it at the Queen Mary in 2007, and vowed to get one myself. I was not the only one admiring it!Highlander said:Mojave Jack, where'd you get the cool safari hat. I need one, I plan to go to Africa next year and need to get a good hat broke in...(I have two safari jackets, trying to see which one I like the best and break them in a bit so they aren't Band Box New)..
Here's Mike's original thread:
The Perfect Safari Hat
And here are a number of us jumping on Mike's band wagon:

There's some discussion in this thread, too, back about 50 of the 101 pages of this thread! lol
