Blue XJ

I ordered a GDI 3 core about 10 years ago. They actually sent me a CSF 3 core instead, it's been a decade and it's still going strong. Barely gets over 200 degrees on the guage. Go with a quality one, it's not a place to cheap out on.

You used these 39# injectors designed for the 98 and below log-type intake manifold in your 2000 XJ w. the "horseshoe" intake and 49# of regulated injector pressure? And all is well? x2 I would think there is a noticeable difference, but a negative one, not a positive one.

I think I went through 4 or 5 senders in a couple years for the same problem. I finally gave up and have a non working gauge now.

I have no idea what the point of this thread is. Cool story?

Thanks! I'll look around, I know I had the angles and measurements written down at one point.

Why not just go to the parts store and ask for the replacement hoses for your year vehicle? It's always worked for me in the past.

x2 About 5 years ago I think is the time frame I have heard. I have a red top in my hot rod, it sits 99% of the time, hooked up in the vehicle and it's never given me an issue, but its probably 10+ years old.

I don't know all the ratios available, but my 8 3/4" has 3.92 gears in it, which would be hard to find for a stock Jeep front axle.

I'll agree to what you say. I have a 4 piece, it can be a little tricky to open and close, but its the only option I had.

If you don't mind me asking, how much was the center console cup holder addition? Never mind, I found it on their site. Good price, might have to pick one up. I like your cb mod as well.

I'd vote 33's, but thats a LOT of lift for 33's. May as well go 35's since they'll fit.

As in the hockey pucks? Any sporting good store would have them, just drill a hole in the middle and bolt them down. As far as body lift blocks, any offroad shop should have them. The one by me charged me $5 each for 3" body lift blocks to use as bumpstops.

Back when I built mine I went with the Rock Krawler XJ long arm kit. I only needed the arms, since I was alreayd running a short arm lift, back then, it was a pretty decent price for the arms, not sure what their complete kit costs now though, seems lifts have really gone up in price in the last 5-10 years.

You can get extended bumpstops that replace the stock ones, I think they are an inch or so longer. Another option is getting a body lift block (or hockey pucks) and bolting it down to the spring perch on the axle, just figure out what length you would need. I went with both on mine to get the correct amount of up travel

Nice write up. I just installed one for my 231 with an AX-15. I had to modify the bracket to get it to attach to the AX-15, there wasn't enough clearance to fit over some casting on the trans.

There sure are a lot of them, but I thought it was a clean way to control everything I have added. The only one I could get rid of would be the interior light one, but I didn't want to pull a fuse when I ran without doors. The ones in front of the shifter are for the following Spool In / Spool Out for Winch Interior Lights Fog Lights Rear Cargo / Bed Lights On Board Air Compressor Power / Safety For Winch The ones in the old ashtray position are Front ARB ARB Compressor Rear ARB

x2 I just took mine in and out a few times for the trans swap I am doing. Trans jack for the transmission. I put the t-case on my chest while I'm on the creeper, then just lift it in place.

Its a 3 link setup on the front. Only one upper, the upper is actually longer than the lowers, it gives tons of suspension travel. The little RC one wheels pretty good too, I saw the body for it at a hobby shop and had to pick it up. I have one that matches my old Blue XJ as well. Thanks for picking me, I'm honored to be the featured rig this month! I just looked at my build thread, it's been a while since I've updated it, but I haven't really done anything to it in the last few years. It has on board air now, and some parts have been replaced, but thats about it.

I think I have a solid one in the attic if you need one. I'm not really local and I don't know what it takes to ship glass. But if your not in a hurry I'm sure we could work something out.

You nailed it, the wife was holding a treat to get the dog to look and the son wanted to see what was going on.

I came across this online as well. Its a mount for the 50 cal cans. I think I am going to copy the design and make my own for my 20mm cans. A couple footman loops and a ratchet strap per can and they should be nice and secure. http://www.armysurpluswarehouse.com/ammo-cans-storage-containers/50-cal-ammo-can-holder.html

Those look to be the same size as my 20mm boxes.

Yeah, sorry I couldn't help with that, I just figured I'd chime in and say you can get a good ride out of quality leaf springs as long as you are using quality shocks. I am running a Rock Krawler 3 link kit for a Cherokee on mine, it installed with no issues, however it is considerably different than the Rusty's kit.
