60Patrol

Wow, you have a very impressive memory! You are correct Leslie I did experience shackle inversion with my Alcan springs due to the height of the lift. I have since corrected the problem but it isn't a simple fix. The first thing I did was remove two leaves from the rear and one from the front. this ...

I see the yellowish one outside Anaconda almost every weekend. We have a cabin at Georgetown. it has a plow and appears to move when it snows but during the summer it very rarely does. I have been thinking about a plow for mine as the county decided to stop plowing the roads to out cabin last winter...

Welcome Maureen! Connie wouldnt happen to live in the country club would she? to my knowledge there are three Patrols in Butte a white one that i havent seen driving around in awhile, mine, and then a yellow one that was under cover in the country club, it was owned by a nice lady whos father had or...

Super Swampers 34x9.50x15 and 34x9x16 are still available and fit well even with uncut fenders, with lift and correct Backspacing of course. http://intercotire.com/tires.php?id=8&g=1

Sorry, I wasn't logged in so I didn't see your picture when I first read your post. It looks like there is approx. 160 wraps and while it's hard to tell I assume it's about 0.5" in diameter. That would make the wire ~10' long this is much to short to use magnet wire. I also see that it is wrapp...

I think magnet wire has too little resistance. According to the chart you would have to use over 100' of the 40awg to wrap your sender to get 100 Ohms. NiCr wire has more resistance per unit length using the same diameter NiCr wire you would only need 1.5' of wire. Unlike magnet wire NiCr is not typ...

I assume you are looking at a newer model with the 4.0 L, I also owned a 2000 X 3.3L and it was a dog, and I don't think the supercharged version was any better. It had trouble with one ATV.

We have a 2006 4x4 off road model with the 6 speed manual. I have used it to pull 4 5-600# atvs on a1000# trailer, and our 19' boat that I would guess weighs 3-3500lb. It has no problem doing this even up the passes, may need to drop down to 4th but have never dropped below 55-60mph. I typically use...

and a set of 3 inch (or 4 inch if they can do them) Alcan springs. I'm not going to do a wild suspension under it- I'm not grinding off any factory spring or shackle mounts - I'm just going to make it tall enough to clear 32-33 inch tires, and to be tough and dependable enough to take us camping, a...
