    94 yj sahara

    It has the 4.0 and 5 speed manual. It's almost dead stock. Hard top, doors. Sahara green. Paint is way faded. It has a mangled passenger front fender but I have a new one that'll come with the jeep. I've been using it as my daily driver and it runs very well for a jeep of that age. Even the rear...

    9" won't seal!!

    Crap. That's what i thought but didn't wanna hear. Thanks for the info. I've been pressing the bearing in with the retainer. Turning each bolt a couple of times till it's tight. Is that the right way?

    9" won't seal!!

    78 ford f150 with a 9" rear. I replaced the third member. Then my shafts started leaking. Put new bearings and seals on the shafts. One side is fine. The other still leaks. When I removed the bearing race on the drivers side, the damn thing wouldn't budge. I had to rent one of those hammer...

    tj to wj brake conversion

    My 06 rubicon has descent brakes, but I want better for the front. I don't wanna get rid of my original 16" wheels. So in my persuit to find a better brake that's not aftermarket (I want something stock for parts replacement ease), I'm curious about the wj brakes. They have a bigger rotor and...

    94 grand t-case swap

    I have a friend that owns a 94 grand cherokee with the v8 and full time t-case. He's had a lot of problems with it. Gone out twice. I was thinking we should swap in a part-time case from a I-6 grand so he could have the awd option, but run in 2wd for the regular season (save on gas and t-case...

    street legal ohv (jeeps and bugys)

    A tractor isn't structurally altered. They're factory built. John Deere, Cat, International, ect. Funny thing though. I've seen some of them, but never personally driven a tractor with turn signals, or brake lights. For the most part, I don't think cops care about a tractor so long as you're not...

    Axle upgrade for 78 f150

    Chocflip. Sent you a pm. I'm stoked about the big brakes. When i was buying new hubs I noticed that the hubs fit a lot of applications and makes. Do you HAVE to use ford fronts, or can you also use chev or dodge outers as well... provided they're the same bolt pattern and off a 44 or chev...

    Axle upgrade for 78 f150

    Doin good Tacoma! Been a long time. How bout you? Buckin bronco, thanks for the link. Very informative. I'm definately gonna have to shorten my driveshaft according to the info. But what about the yoke? Do I need to get bigger joints? If I do, is there a yoke that'll fit my transfercase so I...

    Axle upgrade for 78 f150

    I usually work on jeeps or chevs and now own a 78 f150 shorty. I've been trying to find a 9" third (mine is toast) and am really tempted to try a 60 rear. There are a lot of them around for cheap. My question, If I were to buy a 60 rear from a 77-79 ford would I A: Be able to bolt it on...

    Turboing a 4.0????

    I have a home made turbo kit on my 2.5 wrangler. Takes some modification, but is worth it. Your eclipse turbo is way too small. I met a kid that was running a t-4 on his 4.0 cherokee. But it was tight. Kept burning things under the hood. We ran tubing from the manifold to the turbo in front of...

    Welding question.

    I can weld a good bead, but my concept of metal fusion is sub-par at best. I'm changing my axles on my yj and need to make a new spare tire carrier. I thought it'd be cool to use the outer flange from a rear drive shaft and weld it to the spare mount. It's obvoiusly a different kind of metal...

    4L60E trans leak, How much effort to change a rear seal?

    Drew, I'm almost positive that your tcase is self contained. I've never changed a 231 that wasn't. If your tranny is leaking into the tcase it would be because the input gasket on your tc was leaking. Or the output to the front drive shaft was leaking. Your tranny fluid is containded by the...

    Lowest gears for d44?

    What are your suggestions? I was hoping to save a dime and go really low in my axle so I don't have to get a tc reduction. But I'd still like the option of driving to moab. I only have a 4cyl motor. If I ran 5.89's what rpm would I have at 70?

    Lowest gears for d44?

    What's the lowest ratio for the d44. Specifically for the low pinion wagoneer 44's (not that they come in high pinion anyway). Not the xj style either. I'm might swap a set into my yj, but I need a really deep cut so my 4 banger can turn 35's and still make use of 5th gear. My knowledge of...

    92 yj... I'm stumped

    I still haven't had time to change the plugs and stuff. Thanks for the volume tip. I'll check that out when I get a chance. I have no cat. Took that out when we rerouted the exhaust.

    92 yj... I'm stumped

    LOL, You're right about the guages. I got them mounted finally. wr250 how do I check volume? And I changed the injectors tonight, Ive already changed the filter. Timing is good, but I'm gonna change the plugs, wires, cap and rotor sometime this week. I'm also gonna change the thermostat. I...

    92 yj... I'm stumped

    I changed the tps and the idle control motor tonight in hopes it might help. I no longer have problems with low idle, but still with it running lean, getting hot, and cutting out. I'll check the timing and fuel delivery again. I'll also check the injectors. Any tips are appreciated.

    92 yj... I'm stumped

    Idles kinda rough, and at a lower rpm than it should. loses power and cuts out like it has a spark plug wire jumping around while driving. Runs hot and very lean. It's turbocharged so we thought it might be fuel delivery. Changed the filter, then the pump, tested the fmu, fuel pressure is...
