Another thing we used to do was unplug each other's coils or distributors. It was hilarious watching each other try to figure out was wrong. We did so much to each other, I got to the point where I would check underneath, and pop the hood before I even got in the truck.

I am skeptical of the Boot differences. My guess is that newer "better" boot kits are now available that supercede older boots.

You can still wrap a zip tie around the drive shaft(s), and since Jeeps only have those handle holding the hood closed, it would be even easier to get to the coil/distributor...

if you have a EXbuddy..or someone you need to do a litle payback on..you can do the following.
Take the rear fill plug out of the diff....pour in some QUICK-CRETE ( concrete that you can mix at home with water). Put fill plug back in...and wait to hear about how he was driving downt he road and the whole rear of the truck locked up lol.
I wouldnt do this to anyone, BUT i have done it to a jeep cherokee i was taking to scrap. YES it works. First the gears locked up into a solid block, then the driveshaft broke at the DIFF and went trhough the floor :-)

The ADD outer shafts are about 20% larger than the MH outer shafts when mic'd. The inners are identical. A local member mic'd each shaft for comparison- SO the added strength is inferred from the beefier shaft.

The HVAC zip ties work even better with a manual transmission, because the clutch is depressed and there is a pause in acceleration and the engine revvs down. It sounds really realistic. Did it at school to my best friend, everyone in the parking lot was looking for whoever was driving what was going to blow...

bwahahahaha that one is going in the prank thread ... 'bout time we reactivated that little gem anyways... I had a buddy pull the coil wire on my parents car iI was driving just after I got my licence... took me a while to spot what was wrong since the dirty schlemele disconnected both ends and moved the cable so I could'nt see it.... quik-crete in the diff is just mean to say nothing of dangerous, you could kill someone with that one I would'nt do it...

hit them at home. go into your buddy's shower and put an oxo cube inside his showerhead. then, strip his bed, and put a sheet of plastic down on the mattress. sprinkle icing sugar over it, then remake the bed.
when he goes to bed the plastic will make him sweat, and the icing sugar will frost him. when he wakes up frosted, he'll take a shower but he'll get soaked in chicken broth.
to top it off, put nair in his shampoo bottle.
that'd really ruin your day. hahaha
or wait until your buddy goes away for a week's vacation, then break into his house, disassemble an old Civic, and reassemble it in his living room. he'll have no idea how it got in there, and have no way to get it out.
