    tucked well..


    That ledge is only 25 inches tall, so couldn't max out. Need to find a bigger ramp, but really should not be driving it. Brakes are bad and it is idling very rough, like it is not getting fuel for a second. Could it be some water/moisture in tank?

    Rusty Muffler said I should buy the exhaust parts online and it would be alot cheaper. Exhaust is next on my list.

    Forgot to ask, anyone know of good places online to buy exhaust parts? I need a cat(2 in 1 out), and a something like a Flowmaster 40?

    Another question. Even after I fix the other leaking rear line, I think that I will still have a soft pedal. Could this be the booster? Are there any advantages with going with a 1-ton MC and booster?

    No it can't be the booster.

    If your master cylinder does not have enough volume then you might think about going to the one ton, if it has a bigger bore. With the stock one on my jeep the pedal would hit the floor but it did stop good still. When I replaced it I went with a bigger one and the pedal is harder to push, but doesn't go to the floor anymore.

    You might check out ebay for exhaust parts and compare to Summit and Jeg's prices to see if it's a decent deal...

    It pushes me around, but pulls it well for what it is.
