    I simply sprayed mine with a product called Jet Wet from autozone and put new life in them. It's really a tire procuct but does a good job on dash pads and other things. It's a temporary fix that you can repeat. give it a try.

    bell crank update

    I think I have figured out the problem with throwing the bushings out of the bell crank on the clutch. I am going to replace the left motor mount, one of the bolts was almost all the way out.

    Has anyone had trouble with the plastic bushing wearing out in the bell crank working the clutch? Mine seem to last about a year. I wonder if there is a metal bushing that can be used instead of the plastic one?

    installing a warn winch on cj7

    What does tread lightly mean? It belonged to some friends of mine and I do know that it's probably 8-10 years old, but has only been used 10 times or so and always covered. It belongs now to the grandson who is a mechanic. I don't think it needs anything. What type of mounting should I do?
