  1. I will keep the D30 in the front (Just putting 4:10s in it) and putting a 4:10 LSD 8.8 in the rear. I will be using an AX-15.
  2. The truck has some rust, but is fixable. I do have the money to do this and I have helped my dad with LS swaps in the past.
  3. Should I buy a $300 5.3 with 74,000 miles on it or should I keep my stock Renix 4.0?
  4. Hi! I am trying to find a short box roll bar for my 89. I am also looking for a sliding rear window for my truck, as it is a feature that my family has had in other trucks and I would like one for my truck. I do not need but I would like a tailgate for my truck as mine has a lot of dents and a bit of rust. I am also looking for an AX-15 as my truck is an early 89 with the Puke-goat. I would consider traveling 1.5 hours to get parts. I am parting out a 97 Cherokee. I would be interested in trading parts for parts. I may also consider buying a whole truck for parts. Thanks everybody, Carter T.
  5. Just subscribed to you YouTube channel
  6. I have a 97 XJ with 303,XXX on it. Needs a crank sensor.
  7. The engine is in a shed. Just the engine.
  8. Picked up some Cherokee rockers from a friend who had them laying around. Hopefully they will be able to work on my driver side rocker. Also, my grandma has a 5.3 with 74,000 miles on it. The project it is going in is probably not going to happen for a few years, so I am kinda tempted to buy that from her. What do you guys think?
  9. Safety 3rd!!!
  10. I would not recommend doing a bed liner for a paint job-if something happens to it, it is hard to touch up. Also it is heavy and you need to make sure you tape everything off perfectly-I have heard stories of people who got bed liner over their locks and now cannot lock their vehicle. Just my opinion, it is your truck. Welcome to the club, the people here are extremely helpful!
  11. Have you worked on the Zuki at all lately?
  12. That is not right that he took your opinion and completely changed it-he asked your opinion and made it different.
  13. If you need someone to interview, feel free to message me!
  14. Looks Good!
  15. Ok. Just wanted to make sure you were aware. Are you going with white again?
  16. I hate to break it to you, but you have rust bubbling on your cab corner right behind the rocker.
  17. You bet it does! You posting yours inspired me to post about my Dad’s.
  18. Well thank you! It was surprising that the big tires made it ride better.
  19. The trans is a getrag out of a 98 silverado.
  20. A couple of summers ago my father, brother and I tore apart my dad's 95 YJ Wrangler that had a 4 cyl and a 5 speed. Here is what it looked like once the rust got cut out and test fitting the engine: Here it is with the frame, body, and firewall painted. The interior got a spray-in raptor bedliner. It was on 235s. Then we put the front fenders, grille, and rock-sliders on. It has the original steel body and the frame has been patched. Then we put the windshield and flares on. This is it all together with the 235s on it. We ended up needing to build a traction bar and putting in a slip yoke eliminator because, with the stock springs, the axle-wrap was terrible, so it broke 2 driveshafts and 2 stransfercases. In the garage is our 1959 Chevy wagon-nothing special, 350 and a 700r4. Then the 35s went on. You can see the tote lid under it catching fluid from the broken T-case. We then took it out and flexed it on our culvert some: (It whips good pavement donuts, don't ask) Here is a pic of the first ride it went on. It is the Jeep in the front. The other YJ is actually a CJ-5 with a custom front end. Last summer my dad worked on a YJ with a 4.2 and a 5-speed and 27,000 original miles. Here are some more recent shots of it in action. This bottom one is of the first time we had it on the road this year. Feel free to ask if you have any questions!

    hahahahahahaha!
  22. It does have a hitch play, so I guess you are right.
  23. Here is my MJ Candidate for MJOTM. It is not done quite yet though.
  24. Thanks. I’m 99 percent sure the tires are original to the tractor.
  25. Thanks. The only problem, which isn’t a huge deal if you are putting flares back on it is, the wheel openings aren’t quite the same so it doesn’t look great up close. From a far it looks okay though. I’ll see if I can get an up close pic of that soon.
