my 86 wore these rims for a while. I think they came from a TJ, but don't remember for sure.

tires don't have a "recommended" pressure on them. they list a MAX pressure. :thumbsup:

XJ leafs are mounted outside the frame, but MJs are mounted directly under the frame for more load capability. being under the frame means that they don't have the necessary arch room to be SOA. :thumbsup:

back to the question at hand, the TJ flares mount in a different fashion (easier to remount up higher) and will clear tires a bit better.

easier to custom-install and provides more clearance for tires.

which model year is this truck?

cleanest? meaning it doesn't have to be "clean", just less dirty than the rest? :D my MX6 shock bodies, for sure. :yes:

I seem to remember someone putting the rubber tailgate caps from a late model Ram truck on his rockers.

why do you not have cards in your MJ? :thwak:

87=90 are what you'll be looking for. try car-part.com for a junkyard search. ya might get lucky and find one listed near you. don't forget that you'll need to swap the oil pressure switch and high temp switch to the appropriate sensors. :thumbsup:

if you need to panic-stop, the brakes should overcome the engine and cause a stall. :thumbsup: still, try hard not to get into that situation.

one more vote for starting it in gear. :thumbsup: got my 90 home that way after I bought it (about 50 miles). pain in the rear, but it did it. :D

TJ fenders. they mount pretty easy and you can scoot them up a bit and allow for a bit bigger tire. :thumbsup:

our website won't host photos. you need an outside website like photobucket to host them, then you can share them here. :thumbsup:

It's MJ tech. any and all MJ tech is welcome and encouraged. :thumbsup: If memory serves me, I think more 2wds were sold than 4wds.

it boils down to search-ability. if the tech gets further split up, it's that much harder to find the info you're looking for.

I don't believe the those stiffeners will be where it would need to be strengthened. For handling a big v8, I'd look at strengthening the frame where the motor mounts are.

did you lock the CAD?

how old are the rear u-joints? did you replace them with the lift? they can cause vibrations purely because you changed their operating angles.

weird. have you removed the belt and spun the pulleys by hand yet?

got pictures of what all is going on?

what about a small leak somewhere between the TB and air filter? that could make noise but not really affect idle. maybe. :dunno:

back in the day I had a jar of peanut butter, a jar of honey, and some bread in my desk. made my own sandwich right there each day. never did get tired of it. :D think I'll go have one right now... :drool: nowadays, I don't have a job (and am single) and I make my food a gallon or 2 at a time (mostly from scratch). I then divide it up into meal-sized portions using Ziplock's awesome semi-disposabe tupperware and don't have to cook dinner for days. :) (a side note on the tupperware; the 2 square sizes share the same lids so there's no searching for the right lid :yes: , and they are cheap enough that I don't mind ditching them if something goes wrong. love them!) upon reflection, I guess I benefit from the ability to eat the stuff I like for days a a time with no risk of boredom. :yes: though I imagine there are limits. I certainly don't make the same thing for my dinners each time.

pictures for sure!!! :yes: (also I cleared it up a bit. hope you don't mind man. :cheers: )
