    You can use the front axle shafts as spares if they are in decent shape. Drive shafts, at least the front may work or you co ld sell it to someone who needs a certain length shaft

    Picked up 2 sets of these from the memeber at CF that cruiser recommended. I'll probably toss a set in my XJ first and see how they work in comparison to the 703's I have the Ford 5.0 injectors in my MJ currently which do well. I average 18.5 mpg in my daily commute when driving my MJ. I get 29 in my hooptie.

    I wouldn't install anything larger than 30's with stock gears.

    FWIW. Unless you are set on Long arms, especially since you already have adjustable arms, find a good deal on CAD brackets. I do not regret having mid-arm suspension on my XJ, but I got a great deal on my adjustable CA's and RE CAD brackets that I have on my MJ. My XJ is about 4" lift and my MJ is about 3" max. I would say that they ride similar. Springs/shocks are different on both. Also, what 4.0L do you have under the hood that the alt is up top and the AC compressor is on the driver side? WJ?

    I believe 831xj over at naxja did a custom "lower" lift UBE with an 8.8. Any kits are going to get you above that, but with welding ability and such one could do it. basically you just need enough "height" to clear leaf spring center pin apparatus.

    AX15 flywheel

    Crash replied to Warrior Spit's topic in Wanted

    Rockauto should have them.

    Definitely interested in TL housings. Either of the "discounted parts" available?

    I have BD rubber mounts in my XJ and SFR mounts in my MJ. SFR uses larger bushings so there is less vibe.

    You can but reman zero mile ax15 for about 700 on ebay.

    For what it's worth. I installed a new 100a alt from csk/now 'oreilly auto parts' close to 9 years ago in my XJ and it is just fine to date. Even reman are inexpensive enough to go that route.

    I believe they are j-bolts. Could probably use the part store 'battery hold down' bolts. Morris4x4 has inexpensive boots

    My new $ 500 DD, Shelby Should help aide in the conversion process and saving coin on fuel and manitenance.

    In this situation usually means mech fan clutch is failing/failed.

    Dummy gauge or 3/4 gauge?

    For 32's you don't need any more than 3" if you are willing to bumpstop and trim the front fenders a bit. Hell Creek makes lift leafes for our MJ's. General springs makes some MT leafs. I have about 3" lift. ZJ Upcountry coils and additional isolator up front, MJ bastard pack + longer shackles in the rear. For anything above 3-3.5 " lift I recommend CAD brackets

    I've been running some QS 20w-50 that I found for 1.35/qt . MJ leaks like most Jeepds so it helps a bit. My XJ doesn't leak oil anymore since trans swap/rms/oil pan gasket replacement

    I'd go aftermarket, fixed are fine but adj. is better. Otherwise if you can find a decent pair of WJ lowers, they only need a small amount of work to fit.

    I think I'll pick some up for my XJ. My MJ b/u lights don't work so I'm not going to bother. I have some pods on a switch if I need to see.

    I will most likely go with boostwerks setup for my XJ and my MJ. But, I have been thinking about buying some stainless rod and cutting lh/rh threads on it to be able to adjust it without removing a side.

    Using an impact to snug them one is not a big deal. A torque stick @ the correct rating would be acceptable, but torque wrench should be used.

    Sell 3.4 and buy a 4.0L or LS-based V8 motor is my recommendation. Seems like is as much work as other swaps I have mentioned. Since it sounds like swapping parts from a heep 2.8 is not an option.

    I recommend Synergy adapters , but the other ones are good too. If you look in my thread I have the same wheels on my and Ï have them on my XJ as well

    Confirm charging voltage with a DVOM. If 13-14, then wire/ICP issue.

    I've only had LWB, but wouldn't mind owning a SWB. I DD mine and enjoy it. Gets better mileage than my XJ, and it's a manual which I also enjoy driving more. I've not slept in the bed yet, but being 6'2 the LWB I can fit front to back comfortably and not have to lay at an angle or with tailgate down. With good protection I see the LWB vs SWB a non-issue for wheeling.
