  1. I do believe there is something special in the procedure to account for that extra line going to the rear. brain is failing on me though. Eagle knows. maybe he'll chime in. a bad booster caused my pedal to become soft only when the engine was on. if off, the pedal felt fine.
  2. :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: speaking of predictable... and while I'm here... and I'll let you guys fight over the 304 :yes:
  3. do you still have the factory prop valve out back?
  4. neat! Maybe that's why I can't ever find one. Jim has been hogging them! :yes:
  5. also a few later XJs with a certain towing package. They are quite common under ZJs and TJs (which have a low pinon dana 30). :thumbsup:
  6. did you mean Dana 30s?
  7. are you putting it in a 2wd or 4wd? 3.73 gears can be hard to come by in HP MJ/XJ front axles.
  8. if you're just looking to upgrade, the ZJ tierod is a nice improvement over stock. :thumbsup: you'll retain the inverted Y, but that's not the end of the world. There are drawbacks to the inverted T too.
  9. 3.73s are very rare in a HP Dana 30. I'd almost suggest selling the 8.8 and finding one with 4.10s. The Dana 30 should be good up to 33s (with the late model shafts/ujoints). No sense doing a custom axle install up front if you're not going super big.

    my sister's old TJ. 2000 with a 4.0/stick/trXus STS tires My dad's KJ. 2006/CRD/np-242/all the goodies wish I had a better shot of it. :( after towing a trailer from MI to FL and back: After towing my MJ to IL:
  11. mmmmmm... shiny! :D
  12. which one? the tow bar was for, well, towing and the d-ring mount went into the 2x2 hitch I built into each bumper. :thumbsup:
  13. front tow points are made from sections of elevator rail: custom made to fit my bumpers: neither really helps if you've got stock bumpers though. :(
  14. Not saying this is the best way, but at this point in time I'd likely be drilling a new hole to the broken one all the way through the frame and put in a long grade 8 bolt with wide washers. I'd trust that way more than my attempt at re-tapping a rusty nut. :dunno:
  15. oh that's right. :doh: the computer carbs. guess I did know that. :rotf:
  16. hmmm... I wasn't aware they had one in 84. :dunno:
  17. It's on bags so it pops back up to a normal-ish ride height. :thumbsup: still functions as a truck. Heck, it's probably more of a "truck" that mine. My bed is pretty much worthless if I needed to move a couch or fridge. :doh:
  18. ignore that last nine :D
  19. Chevys use their shackles in a reverse orientation from us (the leaf spring bushing is above the frame bushing) so the longer it is, the lower the truck. Regular chevy shackles are shorter than the drop shackles. :thumbsup:
  20. wonder what it does...
  21. what is your end goal? tire size? wheeling preferences? is there enough budget for regearing? lockers?
  22. just trying to make sure they aren't overlooked. :yes: though admittedly I'm sure I could find something to do with 4.56ers.
  23. any of those 2.5L Jeeps an automatic? :brows:
