didnt notice the other mounts, answers my question :shake: and not to sure :P havent bothered to check since its coming out

road block, can't get tranny in, mounts are different on my 1999 ax-15, brings x-member 3 inches away from mounting location

No, But they are for a 4.5 zone offroad lift, And where ever it got measured at raised it to 36 1/2 inches

not much progess, last couple days ive tried getting the damn pilot bearing out FINALLY GOT IT OUT tried everything even rented a pilot bearing puller went through an entire tub of grease :rotf: pilot bearing remover, (yes the other claw is attached :P) didnt work reigning champion shure showed it :shake: good to go

can i use the rubber mount (elastomeric bearing) that came with the 1999 ax-15? or do i have to switch to the stock one?

off with the old on with the older! my 1974 cj pilot bushing for my 1999 ax-15 clutch off, will last a lil bit longer, still has most the "friction" grooves the damned flywheel it self, can't get the pilot bushing out, gone through lots of grease, pilot bushing puller is discontinued from my parts store. removing my slave cyl fitting for reference, 15.49 online +$123 shipping? i don't think so... old vs new brake cyls old vs new hardware axle now complete spring perches on, pinion angle of 10 degrees, and welded on the inside too once i get that damn pilot bushing out, i will get that transmission in, once i get that, then i can get my drive shaft shortened+installed mount shocks, run brakes, front uca bushings, jeep on

thank you sir! just had an over the top day :oops: so i got more work done on the beast. fixed my locker. i know this isnt the recommended way, but needed to get them started, realized they are a reverse thread,, figured that after i couldnt turn them any more. all dis-assembled for inspection, its a 2 piece gear system,with an interference fit, so when the guy at truck works assembled it he didnt watch to make sure they stayed in place. making the bolts nice and snug with the axle shafts in the locker to KEEP IT aligned XD a bit of extra grease to compensate for the grease that was absorbed into my hands :P back in her spot all bolted up and ready to go :D rtv'd the cover, not fully bolted down, just enough for the rtv to come out the seam, once its set up will snug it up more to come like always, need to install the new brake cylinders and then this bad boy is going into the jeep :banana:

:needpics:

I'm okay with it, ill ride it and if it give me ANY grief, i will replace it. hmm seems ive came a bit unglued earlier, last little while has been a little rough, havent had a real day off or rest for the last 7 months, 11 more to go o_O started on my rear axle today, shafts were not going in, and NO i did not put them in backwards, ive swapped them multiple times to make sure. cracked the lid, pulled the carrier found the culprit. cover off carrier unbolted carrier out you can physically see its not going in all the way :ack: damm 2 part spiders are mis-aligned more to come

couldnt find a 1974 with 304 in a cj, is it this one? Pilot Bushing: 1972-73 CJ with 258" engine Pilot Bushing: 1972-75 CJ with 232" engine http://www.quadratec.com/products/52008_05.htm or this one? Pilot Bushing: 1980-86 CJ with 258", 304ci or 360ci engine http://www.quadratec.com/products/52008_06.htm

it is not cam I'm not an idiot, may not be a heim, BUT, I WAS CORRECT. it is a rear zj track bar, I'm not @#$%ing stupid. http://fatbobsgarage.com/i-6785322-jeep ... ation.html so where is this rubber bushing you see on my frame? took closer pics so you can stare at it longer if you would like still think its backwards? didnt think so.

the heim joint is in the frame, and the rubber busing with the adjustment is on the axle, the heim joint has a press fit bolt in it, only bolts into the frame, i did not install it, but thats how the track bar is oriented, the track bar looks more like a rear zj track bar for lift, adjustment on the bushing side.

how so? it only bolts on one way :P

which one do i need?

swaping in my external ax-15, it has a pin type fitting for the clutch line, how do i remove this, i would like to order my fitting from advance adapters so i can use my original line but would like to make sure its the right one :P

got the tranny out! :D woulda had it out yesterday but i didnt have the e12 torx bit :ack: Drive shaft out starter off broke 2 bolts, going to have to use the stock x-member, the new one has 4 mounting holes instead of 8. freakin expensive socket! to tackle the top 2 bolts out and carted away, didnt stay on cart to long found carrying it much more effective clutch has seen better days, but it will last for a while, until i get more money ofcourse! done for today another project, i don't wana torch em out, ill see if i can mock up a home brew bearing press jeep on

Thread hijack I got my 2.5L 155 km/hr, That's just under 100 mph :) :shake:

What title said!

keep them pics comin

:rotf: do it up! :brows: :shake:

lmao, seems like i never got around to posting the blue chief pics, you beat me too it!

whats chillen on the back of your bumper?

slowly but surely things are coming together, get the last of my bushings tomorrow for the front and the the front will be finished, spent all weekend with a torch and a bfh trying to get those damn sway bar link bolts out, went to the h/w store and picked up a pit man arm puller, popped out in a matter of seconds :thumbsup: also picked up another flaring set just for the double flare dies :D the finished product, extended brake lines, new fittings flared on, sway bar disconnect links + bolts installed, had to haggle with the people down at lordco to get the bushings XD I'm getting good at repairing tie rods, found that the p/o sheared the cotter pins out and left em finger tight, so extensive drilling/hammering and they are like new :D and i scored this baby for 3 slices of pizza :D looks like I'm getting a dual battery set up :jump: more to come, going to swap trannys soon.
