    I've used my waterport a few times as a camp shower. Wife has carried with her hiking and camping multiple times. Just this weekend, I was standing naked next to my truck in the nearly full moon light using it. I had to put the "using it" so you could understand that this is not the other times I stand naked next to my truck (Don't ask). We used it in Moab last trip and added boiling water into it to keep it comfortable when it was cold out. What is super impressive to me is how quick pressure builds just using the hand pump.

    So I was at Home Depot getting a couple random things and saw this axe in the clearance section and I scored an incredible deal on it for only $10.

    I’m going to say without looking it up 1.6 geo engine putting out a staggering 95hp maybe.

    Okay now I google.
    It could be anywhere from 80-96 which is about double stock. Plus no replacement for displacement.

    @stronghammer find a table like these used, you can get oils and grease on them and they clean easily.

    Hope to get 90hp out of it. The stock Samurai comes 60hp, so 50% increase and the same weight.
    60hp is ok offroad with 6.5:1 transfer case gearing and 4:10 diffs but on the highway on 33s 55 to 60 mph is top speed.
    With the 90hp swap people are running 80mph. I want to be able to drive it to where I offroad.

    This is the last thing that has not been rebuilt on it.
    Rebuilt Steering and superstition, front and rear axles and diffs, Transfer case, transmission and now the motor

    Toyota locked axles and drive shafts, Jeep YJ leaf springs, FJ High steer steering

    Thinking about 4-linking it and stretching it out

    Morning all! So wife has a conference in Boston. We are going up the weekend before to do the tourist stuff. At first I wasn’t going to try and do a game at Fenway but, they are playing the Yankees that weekend. So question is do I set on Boston or New York side? I’m springing for tickets behind the dugout. Normally I would do Boston but, tickets are a little closer on Yankees side. Thoughts???

    are you a fan of either team? I'd sit on the yankees side just for being closer probably, will still be a really really cool experience.

    So I've convinced Amy to go by HF with me this afternoon (don't worry @BAMATOY I'm still going in the morning too), but she's never even been to one. I got her excited because I told her she could pick out something she thought was useful for the house.

    Not a fan of either but was leaning Boston due to it being Fenway. The difference is only a few rows but wanted to be as close as possible if I’m spending the money and probably will not be back.
