| you can only change it for a certain amount of time. I'm sure it's been too long for you to change the title. Might try PMing a moderator. |

funny i made it to the end of this and see it hasn't been updated for years....very clean setup this kid has.....the scat box mounted on the bug is it for pressure relief for the oil vent for the crank ? since he isn't running the stock oil air filter ?

The bajakid was trying to sell his baja. I'd see it on CL every now and then. Maybe he sold it?
@ san diego baja - you just missed the night run a few weeks ago. Desert season is near... be ready. There's always something going on. |

If you take 8 east up and take pine valley exit and hook a right its right there. Its kinda rocky and really meant for dirt bikes but its still fun. |
does this place look like a rest area from the highway, and totally riddled with quartz rock? I went to a ride area in that area which was a GREAT camping area, with a really tall hill on one side with several rolled vehicles at the bottom of the hill in a ravine.... I have been trying to find this area for years... only went one time

On how old they where i have no idea?? But yes it was just totally random surprise it just happened it was so strange, i wasn't even really beating on it hard when it happened the road i was on was fairly smooth. One of the smoother sections actually it was completely random it was weird. I replaced all 4 ball joints with the good "German" ones that i got at fiber tech and dang those things are pricey.... I decided to replace all 4 just to be on the safe side because i figured if one went there all about to go haha It was my first time ever changing out any ball joint so it was a learning experience and it took awhile  Then after i got it all back on four wheels again i had my first experience with aliment and that was a lot of fun and it took me a few weeks to finally get it dialed back in. But now i have the Baja back on the road again running great so its all good

Hey Bajakid, I'd paint that car white.Seems Red bajas have a tendency to break balljoints.
