Dirt Bound Off-road has some nice stuff.

Buy new bearings. Less then $150 for the pair most retailers.

Yes. That's too bad. Its the peope that buy them that keep the prices going up! I think a nice clean set should be worth maybe 80 bucks myself.

I used my stock prop valve. WJ master/booster. Elimated the load sending valve and plugged on port (think the front) on the prop valve. Run ZJ rear discs and WJ front brakes. Works like a charm. Stops like a new one ton.

Do not put those toes bolts back in. Replace with a standard 6 point bolt.

Bump. Pics are gone but this truck is now back in the circle after a year and half away.

Hey I'm still here. Sorry guys. ARB is gone. I wouldn't put one on a truck that gets wheeled probably a little harder then it should. Like Ben said, the dang thing moves on the truck no matter how hard you tires the bolts...oh and they are heavy. Perfect for a DD type truck though. I have a DirtBound winch bumper now. I'm going to have to relearn how to post pics. Been over a year and a half 2 years since I've done that. Truck currently sits on 34" KO2s and Hutchinson Beadlocks. Some plans in the works for this summer...

E brake cables work also with little modification.

Looking good as always buddy!

Yep. You can remove everything off a ZJ 93-97 Grand Cherokee and it will bolt right up.

Yep. A lot of times the driver will call you personally. I've met them in town in the mall parking lot before.

If you think Craigslist is bad, I've found Facebook is worse. Not the MJ pages, just car sales groups in general. Too many kids wanna trade nothing for something.

Love my NoVak shifter but Dirt Bound Off-road makes one that's identical for half the price.

242s are just as common or even more common then 231s up here. (MN)

What fluid did you use when you replaced the fluid in your trans?

Yup. And for what? You said it yourself, "Are you an electrical geek?" Easiest way is to swap the complete harnesses but everybody knows that. If he just has the engine and trans, I still find a donor and swap the wiring instead of trying to figure out what goes where.... the little time I have is valuable. If he's paying somebody to do the work, the time is valuable to the OP too!

I use a TJ Hurst shifter in my MJ. I like the extra height. I plan to purchase a Quadratec branded winch for my jeep. I've seen a couple on the trail and the owners have liked them.

I've bought a few set of tires from 4wheel parts. BFGs and Pro Comps. Always free shipping (fast too) and it seems there's always a buy 4 and save $50 or buy 3 get one free... http://www.4wheelparts.com/Tires/Jeep-Truck-Tires.aspx?t_c=13&t_s=536&t_pt=101509&Tire+Height_PQ=225+&Tire+Width_PQ=70+&Rim+Diameter_PQ=16

Got to swap both the engine harness and the dash harness. Need complete donor.

I think my rear shaft is 42-43" or 42 and some change. HNT with a 8.25 in a SWB truck.

Brown Dog motor mounts with rubber is what I have. No complaints and will be buying them again. (Different rig.)

1984 CJ with a v8 is the part I used for the bushing. The bearing is for a 01 XJ manual. 88 Renix Nv3550/231

All the race trucks where 2.5s.

I own a 2014 Cummins with a 6-speed manual. I love it, wife doesn't. She can drive it but doesn't like the extra effort it takes to get somewhere.

I hate to admit it too but my AutoZone CPS is 2 years old and working fine also......I carry a new Mopar spare.
