A common misconception, it stands for " I Rock."

And therefore IROC-Z means "I rock a Z car," e.g., a Nissan.

So I don't know if it's impounded or not. Oh, for gently caress's sake!

On the plus side I took her to see Fury Road for her first time and my 8th last night, and Northgate theaters had the sound turned up right.

Go to Cinerama on friday. They are replaying the summer hits and Fury Road is coming back, but only for 3 showings on friday. I saw it there on the first run and it is hands down the best theater to see it in.

Holy poo poo, blue balling. Remember GTA:SA where you get that cool car in the hills from that woman, only for you to be going all out on robberies and other poo poo to keep her happy? This is your life 14" and I can't believe it.

It's an open world game with customizable muscle cars in a post apocalyptic wasteland made by the dudes who made Just Cause. It's gonna be fuckin' rad.

Swapped steering boxes on the Gremlin, my friend said he ordered a quick ratio box but i don't know if those are real, it's 2.5 turn lock to lock. E: also found a new NOS prndl housing.   INCHI DICKARI fucked around with this message at 16:52 on Aug 25, 2015 |

They are a real thing. I'm surprised anybody makes them for a gremlin though. It increases the steering effort required quite a bit though so if its got power steering I'd make sure that's sorted before putting it in.

Yeah in the 70s 2.5 turns lock to lock would be a fast rack. Until proper rack and pinion setups having more leverage than that on a rack was probably exclusively the domain of race cars.

That's what I hated about my '02 Crown Vic, last year of the steering boxes as the '03 went to racks. How the hell does a car made in '02 still have a loving steering box? Made it feel like the barge that it was, the later panthers with racks felt so much better. IIRC they had speed sensitive steering as well.

Yeah its got power steering, and the new box doesn't turn that much harder. It went from farting on a feather to farting on a kitten amount of resistance.

I'm guessing people still make them because that looks like the same old triangle-pattern 3 bolt Saginaw steering box that fits 19 trillion vehicles, the only differences being the diameter of the bore, ratio, and pitman arm length + drop. 99% sure that would bolt directly into a 1973 CJ5 or a 2001 XJ, too. Probably not the right ratio or pitman arm but it'd bolt up.

I mean I think I was under a 13 grand Cherokee the other day and it had a steering box.
