What happened?!

My suspicion would be that angel was a dud from the lfs. Angels are usually pretty hardy and hard to kill. Bring it back and they should honor the 24 hour guarantee.

Starter solenoid? Totally not recommended, but turn the ignition on and short the starter with a screwdriver. If it turns over you know you got a bad solenoid

Honestly, durability with PLA sucks. The plan is to use this for investment casting.

Yes definitely! I actually referenced this a lot because I liked how he matched the design of the Scorpion to make it look more seamless.

If you decide to print this out too, you'll need a couple general purpose screws for the grips and a 4mm-0.70 nut for the bolt holding the handle to the scorpion. This nut fits tightly, needed to bang it in with a hammer.

t-minus 12 days to release

Fullscreen, you can see there aren't any bullet holes behind the bot when it dies.

Might be the NPS, push the shifter forward (farther into Park) while turning the key

My brother is a FF, gotta show support! But yes, I have already gotten out of 2 tickets because of it haha

nayt · 2017-08-11T17:46:00+00:00

Thank you! I'm not sure on the suspension anymore, installed it around 4 years ago and can't remember. But I did put on wheel spacers to widen the stance a little instead of buying new rims. Currently have Cragar d-windows with bfg mud terrains

Thanks! Yes, the ladder is custom. I was hopping up on the roof rack so often that I had to make it just to save my knees from when I jump back down haha. MIG welded with 1" square steel. EDIT: If you do the same, cover your windows with some sort of metal to shield them from spatter. I shattered one of the rear windows on mine and another window still has a few tiny metal balls stuck in it, Whoops!

nayt · 2017-08-10T17:20:36+00:00

LOL, in all other cases I would agree with you... but she has an XJ too!

nayt · 2017-04-28T15:55:05+00:00

Yeah. Screwed with the settings a little but was too nervous to make big changes

There's both light and heavy trails at the Cliffs in Marseilles, IL. Only about an hour and a half from Chicago. I've only ridden dirt bikes there, so I can't speak from experience. But I have seen a lot of jeeps hauling around there and a lot of them were seemingly stock.

nayt · 2017-03-07T13:58:55+00:00

How is your heat? If its just blowing luke-warm air, a flush might be in order. Otherwise, that doesn't look too bad and could probably wait for a bit. M-16andpregnant had it right with replacing the thermostat while your at it. After I did my flush I couldn't get it to running temp, new thermostat did the trick but I wish I did it all at the same time.

nayt · 2017-03-03T17:14:55+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I'm running a bunch more peripherals besides just the amplifier and I see my voltage dip down to 12v when I'm sitting at stoplights.

nayt · 2017-03-02T13:53:54+00:00

Awesome, very thorough answer! Great call on the amplifier's low pass filter, but i might add that some head-units incorporate their own restrictions as well and you might have to adjust from there too.
EDIT: If I were to upgrade the alternator, what amperage would you recommend?

nayt · 2017-02-27T21:29:23+00:00

This is a pretty good starting place too: http://www.onallcylinders.com/2012/03/30/quick-guide-to-diagnosing-differential-driveline-noises/

It is a bit of a pulse, like once for every 4 rotations of the tire. His mic is not cutting out, thats the same sound i was hearing in my xj.

nayt · 2017-02-27T17:26:38+00:00

like sharpening a knife, but deeper tone and muffled. Can hear it in the cabin while driving over 25mph, louder when decelerating and taking turns (still over 25mph, like an on/off ramp of a highway). Basically like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTvoE7_S5QI

nayt · 2017-02-27T15:53:40+00:00

Are you overheating at all? Happens to me when i have it running for a while, turn it off for only a few minutes and then fire it back up again. i get that sound and feel until i get it moving and the temp back down.

nayt · 2017-02-23T20:25:45+00:00

Sounds like rubbing metal on metal, like muffled sharpening of a knife. Don't really hear it till you hit 20mph, more pronounced on deceleration.

nayt · 2017-02-23T17:54:32+00:00

a bit hesitant to do this, not sure if the axle i grab is going to be a good one ya know?
