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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

I'm playing with ideas. I have a turbo 4cyl wrangler and I'm wondering if the auto will hold up (currently I run an ax5). I don't know anything about them. So here's what I'm hoping to find out: 1. What's I called 2. What year wranglers were they available (I've only seen two and they were...

Did a spring over and used a drop pitman that clears fine, but I've got a lot of bump steer. It's a 92 yj. Is there a company that makes a nuckle that keeps the drag link low but allows a high steer? I know I'm gonna get some people that tell me to change out my axle, but I don't have the money...

Doing a spring over on my yj. I need antiwrap perches and i need them fast. Any suggestions?

I don't know the difference visually or mechanically from the Dana 60 to the Dana 70. And I just read about a dana 61 that according to the article is pretty common. I didn't even know it existed. Some info on all three, how to tell them apart, what they came in, and the good and bad of each...

I'm going to buy a yj here soon and I want to stretch it. I'll have to put a cell in the back and don't want to get high on fumes in the cab. I've heard that the cj and yj hard tops are pretty close to the same (I'm not sure if this is true). Theoretically, if I took out the rollbar, welded in...

I've searched all the threads to see if anybody's done this and I can't seem to find anything. The longer springs will obviously stretch your wheelbase but what mods do you need to do to make it work? How do you relocate the shackles and to where? Would it be easier using cherokee springs? Would...

I know the engine mounts and bell housing hookups are the same as a small block but I've never seen one in a jeep. Other than weight, why? Is it the exhaust? Is it possible to put one in a YJ, TJ, CJ?

If you have a 92 yj 4cyl, and you want to upgrade the transmission what options do you have? The 4 cyl is built with a turbo. The ax5 just won't hold up to it. I need just a little more strength and don't really wanna go crazy with it. I can't find an adapter to mate it to a ax15. I'd like...

I'm thinking real hard about doing rear disk on my ff 14. In the past when I've helped do a rear disk they've been really weak because the master cylinder doesn't push enough fluid to the rear to really make them work well. Also if I ever get stuck on an obstacle I like to use my e brake to...

I'm ready to buy a detroit for my ff14. Does anybody know where I could find the best deal?

never installed one but want to use one in my 79 chev in place of the th350. I've heard it'll bolt up but are they the same length? I don't want to change my driveshafts. Are there any things that I need to take into consideration when changing one? Will my 350 torque converter work? I have...

I'd like to do a crossover steering on a 79 chev pu. It has the 10 bolt with 8 lug outers. I can put a 2wd steering box on it but I'd need somebody to make a drag link and steering rod similar to the ones on the yj. This is the easiest way I can think of doing it. Can this be done? And does...
