Glad to see a Cherokee pulling out its older, bigger brother. Gawd I love Cherokees:)

Well, my check engine light is on and the local transmission shop told me it is a range sensor. At this same time I seem have lost my 4th gear and OD. Therefore on the road/freeway I am staying in 3rd gear. After doing some research the only thing I have found on range sensors is that...

We went up there today and although we did not do the trail, it did not appear closed.

Anyone been up there yet this year? Is it even open yet?

I was in a red 2000 XJ. I went solo up towards forest lake where I met up with a small group of 3 blasting through snow drifts. I decided not to push my luck so turned around and headed up to mineral basin where I met up with 4 cherokees from NAXJA. We played a bit on the rock garden and then...

new time= 11:30 at the Chevron in Alpine

Meeting at tibble fork res. parking lot at 8:30 A.M. and then try to make it to Forest Lake (I think still snowed in near top). Few NAXJA guys might be there too.

Just got back after 6 wonderful nights. Did Steel Bender, Hells Revenge, and Flat Iron Mesa (worked the rest of the days:-\ ) Weather was perfect! Can't wait to get back next month for the NAXJA spring run.

Could someone clue me on the difference in numbers between these two motors? HP, Torque, MPG.

Why does it always have to happen the first weekend of the jeep safari? :mad: If they moved it a week earlier my bet is there would be twice as many people show up. Maybe that is the plan since they do not have much room at their facility. :greg:

I'm not very technically inclined and I'm sure it is a silly question, but I changed the gear oil out in my axles (Dana 30, Chrysler 8.25) with Valvoline synthetic blend 80W90 gear oil. I have about 3 quarts left over. Can I use this same stuff in my NP242 transfer case? I noticed while I was...

That is an excellent suggestion, thank you. Aside from better braking it would help retain the axle shaft in the event of a break, correct?

So how soon after and then how often do I want to change out the diff. oil after a gear change? I am at about 185 miles post gear swap.

I hope he doesn't mind, but Joe, who works at Rock Logic, has a rear Dana 44, disc brakes, 4.56 w/ ARB (set up for leafs) and a front LP Dana 30, 4.56, ARB. Both were out of an wrangler unlimited and both were under his Cherokee (before he rolled it on Potato Salad Hill). I think there is a...

Thanks for the replies. I feel better now about my setup. I had to pass up on buying an unlimited Dana 44 rear. My 30 yr. old needed braces (wife!).

So I've got a 2000 Cherokee sport with the 8.25" rear, 4.56 gears, ARB. Aside from being a C-clip axle and having a rubber drain plug, is there really anything else wrong with that axle? 29 spline shafts tell me they are almost as strong as 30 spline shafts in a Dana 44. Axle tubes seem to be...

Jinx, you lurkin' around on this thread??? I need someone to wheel with on Thursday April 5th. Thinking about either Hells' or PSM, maybe Behind the Rocks???

We will be doing our own trails Friday and Saturday and then jumping in with RR4W on Monday on Flat Iron Mesa (hopefully). You guys are right, it is a great organization.

Isn't it about that time when someone posts up a "who's going to Jeep Safari" thread? I am. My company is sending me down to Moab for "training" on Wednesday April 5th. We (the fam.) will then stay until Monday or Tuesday of the following week. We plan on running Steel Bender and Poison...

That is one enormous dog!!!
