  1. This is from a guy i know that lives near me. He swapped an AW4 into his TJ.
  2. i "think" i had the 35C in mine but i took the shafts out and junk yarded the housing after i put the 8.25 in.
  3. i've got TJ flares on mine but they are the sahara ones so they are wider the regular TJ one....but I'm gonna swap them with the stock ones from my TJ so they arent sticking out as wide.
  4. how about the manifolds? will either the 02 or 97 work on my 89 MJ?
  5. i have buddy that can get a 4.0L head and manifold for like $50 and its from a 2002. the queston i have is would it be the same as a 97? also would either manifold work on my MJ? thanks for any info!!!
  6. i fixed the DW on the MJ by replacin the LCA as the bushings were shot and the arms themselves where "modified". the shimmy i have is on the TJ and fixed it for now by making the axle bushing on the track bar tighter. the track bar needs replaced but i'm hoping it will last until march when i buy my new lift. :cheers:
  7. ok so it was suspended animation wobble...
  8. my DW has been fixed(for now) by replacing the LCA's on the MJ. i still get a slight shimmy once in awhile but i need to replace the uppers too. i also had a shimmy that looked like a mild form of DW on the TJ and fixed that by modifyin the track bar bushing. i say it looked like mild DW is because i knew a spot in the raod that caused it and i looked out window at the tire one day and seen the tires.
  9. how your TJ set-up?
  10. oh forgot to add that my 33's only run 32.5"
  11. for that price i'd just slap them on there and wheel it....urs would prolly look like mione because my fenders are trimmed pretty high but i like the extra room for flex.
  12. ya i gonna do that later i just tack welded them for now... :D
  13. might not be a MJ project but i'll use it on the MJ...lol i picked up a broken pallet jack from work with cracked forks. i got bored today and made this....... it lifts the tires off the ground about 2-3" right now but i need to add hydro fluid to the jack. :twisted: gonna make switchin tires a whole lot easier.. :D
  14. lol. i know what you mean there. noone at the jeep dealer i worked at drove jeeps. then i showed up driving a comanche or 2 and none of them had ever seen one. i think these things must be from a parallel universe or somthing. Alex that sucks how do you work at a Jp dealer and not drive one... here's a couple of picks of my Jp dealerships "play toy".... my parts guy is the one driving....he's married to one of the dealership owners.
  15. when i "made" the LCA's :oops: i made the same length as the RE ones but the lack of offset at the axle made them too vertical causin them to bottom out. when you say inverted Y did you mean the stock steering? i have a Rusty's steering conversion on it (came installed on the MJ when i got it) but i need to replace the TRE though when i check my alignment.... :wrench:
  16. took the manche out for a drive today and the DW is gone..for now..lol!!!!! it rides SOOO much better now i looked at my old "control" arms and the reason i think i had DW was because the arms would/were resting on the spring perches. :shake: :oops:
  17. i would get the RE3715 they only $50 more and the flex joint is rebuildable.....just my opinion...
  18. naa don't need to really.... hehe
  19. :agree: when i read the mag at work i don't even read the pages she is on but the other guys at work think i'm nuts..lol i tell em i bought this to read bout Jp's and not look at chics..hehe i think she's the gal on Quadratec too...http://www.quadratec.com/stages/default.php
  20. ya. i got a little over 6" of lift from mine. ive heard that 2wd get about 4-4.5" IIRC. i hope that with all my trail gear the rear sags a little as it sits higher than the front without a load in the bed.
  21. yup. i've been keepin a look out for another good set at the local j-yard to build up as a spare.
  22. :rotf: aaahh got ya...i'm buyin a "Asshogger Offroad" windshield sticker hopin it pisses my boss off.. :nanner:
