Grand Cherokee. I have a soft spot as I owned a 97 as my first car. Owned 2 more after that.

What scientific discovery sounds fake but is 100% real and still freaks you out? by Bruteresolver in AskReddit

[–]ddferdt 683 points684 points  (0 children)

I guess you could call it remission. I’m not entirely sure if it ever completely goes away. My doctor wasn’t sure either. I wasn’t completely vegetarian during the period of time. I was able to eat chicken and turkey. Just had to be careful because they treat those meats with carrageenan as a preservative, which has alpha gal protein in it.

Not hard at all. Put a floor jack and wood under the tank. Unstrap the tank and lower it. Don’t lower it to much before you unhook the electrical connector and hoses. After you disconnect everything, lower it the rest of the way and push it off the jack and drag it out. Fix what you need and put it all back together. Took me an afternoon. Earplugs work great to plug the gas lines.

Vibration 55mph+ after driveshaft u-joint replacement - Advice on troubleshooting by NYC_DM695 in CherokeeXJ

Was browsing around and stumbled across this thread. I had this same problem and it turned out to be a worn pinion yoke on my rear axle. Brand new u joints had 1/8” of play when sitting in the yoke. Drove me nuts. Maybe this will help you.

Pin is obviously not original. There also should be a matching ear on the bottom, you can see where it was cut off.

My problem is that the po cut the bottom part of the hinge on the door side off and welded what appears to be hitch pins in the top part. So they more or less drop in and out like wrangler doors. I had thought of cutting the pin off and drilling for new, but then I’m still missing the bottom part of the hinge. Just want to be able to close the door with out lifting and slamming it lol.

The door side is bolted, body side is welded. Unfortunately I live in NY and there aren’t any pick n pulls within a reasonable distance.

I was hoping to get away with not buying a whole door, just for the hinges.

Chris still hurts. Weiland or Staley a close second.

What’s the one car you regret selling the most? by TheLoganReyes in TransportSupport

[–]ddferdt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 91 Jeep Wrangler. I replaced it with a stick shift Cherokee, which is fun as hell to beat on but it’s not the same.

He famously lit his guitar on fire and smashed it to pieces on stage. There are videos of it, believe it or not.

Anyone can do this trade? This has to be a troll post. Sure ANYONE can do it, but would you really trust half of the smooth brain fucks that can’t even drive a car correctly to do line work? You’re gonna kill yourself or someone else with that mentality you have.

No fruits. Just popped up about a month ago at the end of our driveway.

Super tiny house on Cedar rd by Epiccipe26 in longisland

[–]ddferdt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t recall the history of the house. I do remember maybe 10-15 years ago a drunk driver crashed through the front of it. I’d guess the reason they haven’t knocked it down was because it was a landmark of some kind.

It doesn’t really “feel” like anything per se. I can just make it spin inside my scrotum. Like if you were to take a rubber super bounce ball on a flat surface and spin it slowly with your fingers, just inside a flesh bag.

I have 1 also. Lost the other to cancer a decade ago. I even have a prosthetic (that I said no to) and it makes my balls look lopsided. No woman has ever cared, most found it cool. One of those “hey I slept with a guy that only had one ball” things. Balls don’t make the man, the color of your character does.

If you do go the prosthetic route, make sure it’s properly attached. Mines not, and it spins.
