  1. It's bolt-in if you buy the right parts. Do your homework. I personally wouldn't buy a whole XJ for parts seeing as you'll be stuck with either stock gearing, or a trans that doesn't match (all depends on what you have now). What are you looking for in the end? That will help us help you figure out what the best parts would be.
  2. My 2wd 88 was armed with a stick shift and 30" BFGs and I would stay up late or get up early in order to play in the snow covered roads before the plows came by. :D Good tires, a bit of weight (right above or in front of the rear tires and secured) and some skills will go a long way on flat snowy roads. Deepest snow was about 8-10 inches. Oh, and don't put bags of salt in the bed.
  3. Yup, they are indeed CPS bolts. They are left over, not becasue I forgot about the CPS (I had that installed before installing the trans into the truck), but because my new external slave bellhousing came with its own CPS bolts. D'oh! :shake:
  4. 2.5 + 4 speed manual = 3.55
  5. Hard to say... It doesn't have axles yet.
  6. I've got a 23 spline 231 that came out of this rig...
  7. I've always tried to be more subtle. I have our addy in all my sigs and try to answer questions by referencing specific threads here when possible. Heck, I still can't seem to get some of the guys from the Yahoo group to switch over.
  8. It just means you have to get a t-case with the new tranny.
  9. :hmm: These were in the baggie containing the bellhousing-to-engine bolts. :dunno: Not a clue what they go to and they may not go to the bellhousing at all. There's 2 of them and they are about 1.25" long. (yeah, I know. It looks big in the pick, but they are just little things) Ahh, the joys of working on vehicles... :roll:
  10. in XJs.
  11. My 90 is 23 spline.
  12. 91 AX-15 would be 23 spline.
  13. If you think that's weird, my 88 doesn't turn forward. :nuts:
  14. A better method is to look up at the inside surface of the outer steel from behind and in front of the rear tires. The inside surface will start rusting and spread outward long before the rust penetrates the steel and is visible from the outside. this is the best pic I could find. It's looking from in front of the rear tire and you can kinda see the reddish area where the rust is spreading.
  15. Ok, so I'm sick of waiting for the guy at my dad's office to vectorize the army and canadian MJ images so I can get them printed into stickers. Now I find out he's on vacation for a couple weeks. Grrr..... :rant: Anyone here that can get that done for free or next to free? :brows:
  16. They rust from the inside out, so take care to clean the little shelf inside the fender and above the wheelwell. It can collect dirt and that can retain moisture.
  17. What is the quality of that image?
  18. Trimmed the front: Trimmed the back just a little: And when that isn't quite enough, the tires will do some trimming of their own:
  19. If you think you have a BA-10 in your 86 Cherokee, I'd love to see a picture. :brows:
  20. This should make your life a bit easier.
  21. Don't sweat it, we all had to start at the beginning. :D
  22. Yeah. That little sensor on the bellhousing. It is of the utmost importance to convincing the computer to creat a spark. :thumbsup:
  23. Right there..... /\ ....................... | ....................... | ....................... |
  24. Too difficult to click on the PM button under my posts? :hmm:
  25. What's the minimum order?
