    700r4 vs TH400, need help deciding....

    400 heavy and sucks 45-ish hp to turn, the r4 is alot lighter and less parasitic drag along with the od. I do believe the r4 is longer over all by a few inches tho

    soft tops in the winter?

    I had both for my 98, the soft top is more of a pita to clear the windows of any snow w/o scratching them. the hard top is quieter. In most yj's I have ridden in with the hard top, it takes longer to warm up due to the the fiberglass top also needing to be warmed. Also I found in yj's in the...

    body lifts hate?! open for discussion

    one other issue for jeeps anyways... You can fit a tummy tuck with some work with out using a body lift. The issue then turns into one of air flow at higher road speeds. The temp of the trans/xfer case tends to go up a lot as you go speeding down the highway with those close quarters when not...

    JK rock sliders

    I prefer the gen right or purejeep. they have a built in stand off that doubles as a step( not a tube a continuous part of the slider) then go up the body panel and help stiffen/cover some lower areas from damage

    Back Country Lockers??

    The 35 usually dies by hopping it with heavy right foot action. If your aware of it's limitations then you should be OK, but I would do the super 35 upgrade and put a stout cast/steel cover. The cover adds some rigidity(less end cap play) to it and gets rid of the rubber plug that lets way too...

    Jeep Wrangler 4 Low

    My Lj was a rental in hawii before I got it. The thing was a fight to get into 4 low. Figured it hadn't been used much. I had the best luck going from 4hi to 4 low in neutral. If the xfer case isn't in all the way it will pop out easy like you described. I was going to work on the linkage but...

    I admit it: I need help tuning my CB radio antenna

    best bet is to use a continuity meter and see how your ground is holding up before you do the swr. here is a little chart for reference to help out

    Project run around.

    Nice thread good luck with it. Only advice I would add is, that after checking your gas mileage you may wish to rethink the tires. Toyo's are a great tire but they are on the heavy side and tend to adversely effect gas mileage

    Haystack trail to the grand canyon.

    Down here in St. George is a trail/dirt road that leads to the grand canyon. It is a bit of a trip, slow going but nothing technical. You do get to hit he canyon at a spot where you can camp alone with no tourist issues and get some amazing sites. I haven't made it to the end yet. When I...

    diagnosing an issue with my LJ heater

    OK when I got my lj only high spd on the heater worked. No big deal I ordered a new blower motor resistor and put it in. Slight change. I now always still had high speed but once in a while low speed would just turn on when left on any of the other 3 speed positions. I figured the resistor was...

    93xj getting hot

    is the set up you ave a 1 or 2 spd fan? I read electric fan in your post. The fan maybe only wired/relayed for 1 speed when it needs the 2nd to kick in to cool correctly? Also how is your fan shroud? seen alot of them made to fit and they leave gaps. This lets air bypass the radiator and let em...
