your starters done, your comuatator`s widings have either come undone or your brushes inside the starter are finished (past wear points) leaning towards the brushes, a failing solenoid (electromagnet) on the starter would cause an on/off no crank take out your starter, bring it to a local shop and get them to check it out, they can put the armature/comutator in a lathe and mill it down, as well as cut the mica that seperates the windings on the comutator to the specified level, as well as put new brushes in, after you should have a good as new starter, if not they found shorts to ground and need to replace the whole assembly

:needpics: sorry had to, havent used it in a while

seems like your unit bearings or ball joints are shot (ball joints because of the tires dropped to the camber it should be at) do these tests to check both of above items remove your tires. spin the bearings that the disc brakes mount too, there should be a drag torque to them ( meaning it takes a certian amount of lbs/sq inch to rotate) if they are free spinning or make grinding noises they are toast, also grab the unit bearings from top and bottom and push/pull the top/bottom at the same time then viseversa a few times, there should be no play if there is find where its coming from and thats your toast part, that twisted drivers lca is also giving you unwanted camber on the drivers side, it needs to be replaced, you deff have it narrowed down, you axle isnt bent except for your drivers lca get someone to jack on side up and down repeatably and watch that side of the axle. what your looking for is the point where the tires are pivoting from, either the ball joints (yes i know) or your unit bearings hope this helps

take your pipe used that you used on the tires and rest it on the axle tubes, see if they are straight, aswell like pete said cneck your toe in/out also 35/37 on 8 inch of lift isnt bad at all, and a dana 30 can survive 35/37" tires, depends on how hard u push the skinny pedal, what gears you have, and if you have a locker in the front, trussing it will prevent the tubes from bending get another d30 if yours is bent, preferably a HP, and truss it have you jacked up your front end? when jacking it up see if the tires droop changing the camber, that will elminate ball joints ( if you checked it while the tires were on the ground, there will be too much preload, and will mask it to seem like theres no play) also, do you have adjustable control arms? if so, you can control the degrees of camber, since your axle is fixed to a pre determined angle, rotating the axle by shortening or extending the lower control arms will actually change the angle could you take more photos, where you can actually see the axle tubes that are not hidden behind your drag link, tie rods, track bar? ie. from behind (yes youll have to lay under your truck :P) or take a shot from underneath said items? **edit** just noticed this, completely unrelated, hows your steering while turning right? your adjustable steering stabilizer looks like the piston travel isnt set to half way for centered tires

first off, you didnt get witnesses? if she is at fault, you should have atleast if not more than one witness, and sounds like it may be pooched, but pics will tell zack, there is the possibility that that bolts that hold the drive shaft in on the straps which are designed to shear let go, need pics!

02 sensor?

its been done, my buddy has a sbc 350 in his xj as well, no lack of power

privacy is no longer private, who uses g-mail? has an andriod phone? uses google? has face book? all of which there is no privacy every single bit of info logged and stored and read, andriod phone users, every thing u texted called recieved sent everything is saved and read gmail google has full acess to every bit of info and has scanned all e-mails so its a little to late for privacy, if u want that quit your job, get rid of your cell phones/computers and live in the bush but no more of a rant, here's some i found of my truck! :P

**edit** wrong forum XD

lets see some pics with your new rubber on all the way around :D what gears you running?

Duuude! Updates?

Way to go, as you can tell nothing is impossible if you set your mind to it, Lookin you gonna do final body work to the roof? Or gonna roll with it as is?

always liked jeeps, grew up with them, thought they were cool lol it was just destiny ofcourse, one day dad came home with it, drove it and brought it to my schools auto shop ended up giving it to me, first vehicle a jeep as well as a truck, never owned any thing since than, mj #4 :P

thats awesome, i really need to get my pass port, it seems like all the bad @$$ built rigs are 5 hours from my place, i live right at the edge of the us border! i can see orville from where i go 4x4ing :P one day when i get it ill try and meet up with ya'll

its a 4 bladed rotor system, went for a rip in it, nice machine this one flys away tomorrow, the second ship is a go

stick with chief, if it was a j20 id say go for it because thats a true honcho, sick rig btw

so, i got stuck, moral of the story bring your hi-lift and operational 4wd is necessary so what do i do? buy a new transfer case and clutch that is :D then came the task of changing both, witch only took 4 1/2 hours by myself by hand :P first out came the old transfer case ( i split the tcase from the tranny because its not as heavy to remove by hand that way) and then the transmission you can see my clutch is pretty much done in this pic (not bad for a 25 year old clutch XD) old an new clutch installed, didnt bother taking a pic of the tranny back in, yall should know what that looks like a little offroading, later, my verdict tranfercase works great, climbed to the top of a mountain even after the trail ended a poser shot, i need longer shocks in the rear, its limiting my down travel more to come like always, i now have a spare tcase, can you say doubbler any one?

if you have ever used google, or have google chrome, or have an andriod phone, all your information is allready sold XD pm sent pete

looking good, you can use a stuff called guide coat instead of black enamel (thats what i use when blocking, i do body work on helicopters) keep up the great work!

glad you still have your rig! was wondering what ended up happening to it :P

my background, cheezy yes that i have my own truck on it but damn its a good shot IMHO

pull all the way down on the tcase shift lever ( on tcase) =4 lo, push all the way up on the tcase shift lever (on tcase) = 2 Hi i don't have a 4wd linkage yet ( been shiftin manually for a year LOL

now that you know the cable is moving check your rear brake pads and see if they are worn out, that will also lead to an inoperative e-brake *edit* had this lAyin allready on thie site if it helps
