Have you tracked down the source yet?

Sell the front skid and the t-case skid, but retain the gas tank skid if it's in good shape. The gas tank isn't very thick and it won't take much to puncture it.

I've got a couple 8.8 sway bars in the garage and when the 90 goes back in for it's continued service, I'll be holding up a bar to see how well it might fit. Just for kicks. :D

I think he means that he's doing an SOA and he only wants 4" total. :D

I would have someone turn the wheel and see if it's binding or if it's going all the way to the steering stop. How big of a difference is it? Could your steering wheel be off by one full turn?

Looks a bit pixelated. If you'd like, send the original to me and I'll shrink it better for you. :thumbsup: petermontie@hotmail.com

More than once I've used my hoist and had to move the trailer to it (like the time we were moving those enormous boulders and the ground was too soft) or the truck away from it (when I was pulling the engine in a tiny garage) because I couldn't move the lift itself. Can't imagine life without it. :D It's just so dang useful! The lack of covered/dry storage might be an issue though...

Yeah, ya gotta watch those ninja trees. They can jump out and attack at any time! :D

Long live the long wheelbase!!

Part of me is soooo envious of you guys and your rust-free MJs, and the other part is soooo glad I don't own such a clean MJ because I know it wouldn't last long. :roll:

Is the housing rotated to the proper spot? There are little numbers cast into the housing and it rotates to fit various gear tooth-counts.

Make sure that little housing dealie in the t-case is rotated in the right orientation.

I have some of everything but the 30" long decals. Send me a PM with your address and what you want and I'll get them out next chance I get. :D

Yeah, I don't like being mistaken for me either. :D I'd rather be mistaken for someone with a drivable MJ.

Double check your cookies. That's all I can think of. :( As far as I know, you're the only one that is fighting that glitch. :dunno:

I'm leaning towards the "stuck open injector" theory. I can't imagine that even a engine running balls-outs rich all the time could push that much gasoline into the crankcase. :eek: I'm super curious to find out what the problem is.

I used a cutoff wheel and hit it with water after every few seconds. I wasn't sure if there would be enough heat to harm the rubber if I just cut right through and I wasn't about to just try it and find out. :D

And put some earplugs in your ears. I don't know about everyone else's rigs, but all sorts of bad nasty crap falls off of my truck (rust, dirt, oil, spiders...)

Well, the project isn't finished yet so I can't comment on the ride. I'm at stock 4wd height. If you've got 4", then you're going to need longer arms. The caster will be quite poor and the tire will be too close to the back of the wheel well.

Shifting a 231 into 4wd on pavement can certainly do that. The 231 is not an all-wheel-drive case and should only be used on slick or loose surfaces.

I put them on my 90. They are the same length as stock MJ arms, but a hair wider so you need to trim the bushings a bit. before trimming is on the right, after is on the left: To get full flex, I also trimmed here on the arms: And here on the axle (where it touches the arm):

And if you're too lazy (or don't know what a Yahoo Group is), here is Rick's letter:
