Any tips for pre-filtering a gas can that has plenty of gas but also some leaf bits?
I would think maybe a coffee filter and pour feom one can to another...but that seems too easy.

Ah, perfect, I actually have some. Will try that.
I also found out has makes rubber bands break really fast ;-) Luckily no mess. Probably try a hose clamp.

4 3/8x1 inch grade 8 bolts, 4 3/8 grade 8 nuts, 8 each of grade 8 small 3/8 flat washers and lock washers and some steel tie wire. Do yourself a favor an buy the hardware at the hardware store not the autoparts store. It will be much cheaper.
Same list in 5/16 would work too. Actually I did use 5/16 now that I think about it.

I have done it before. The fronts never break, neither do the bottom rears, it's always the top rears. And use 5/16

I'm hearing a rattle at idle when I'm in gear but not moving. The sound's coming from the transmission tunnel and after inspecting it, I'm almost certain it's the transmission mounts. So now I'm looking to buy a replacement Mount. 1996 Automatic 4-Speed 4wd. Can anyone direct me to a link to buy one? I've been searching for well over an hour now but can't seem to find one. I'm new to the whole Jeep world, so a hand finding this would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.
