Why the 6.0? What Transmission did you go with? What's your suspension setup? What's your purpose with the truck? Tire and wheel set up? -

I'm looking at a 5.3 Iron block pre cylinder deactivation bs. lol but I have a buddy saying he has 6.0's in the junk yard waiting to be picked. I'm going more of a street monster, AWD Turbo setup, but I'm kind of lost. Talked to a shop and they suggested finding suspensions that bolt up without modifying that can withstand the weight and power. Shooting for 5-700 HP AWD. Probably needing to find a AWD Trailblazer SS. also wanting to probably stick with a 4L80 -

5.3 5.7 or a 6.0 iron block. It will see boost. and I'm trying to convert to AWD. Right now I'm rock the 2.5L. -
SO I'm betting there's a few of ya out there, just have a few questions about suspension, mounts, and frame strengthening. I was given the suggestion to stick with a Jeep suspension, but i need it to hold up to new added weight and don't know what I'm looking for

Hello everyone! I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction. I have an 88 Olympic Edition RWD 2.5L that I wanna convert to a Turbo 5.3L LS, and I'm looking for Advice/links to completed builds. I have access to Pick-N-Pull discount and will probably pull what I need to as much as I need to. I am looking to do a 6speed manual or Auto with paddle shifters. Also I'm be ball parking around 500 WHP(That's the goal) If Anyone has links or suggestions please let me know! Thank You!

So I know this is an Odd request, but I need the rear diff gears for a Dana 35. Yes LATER on I will switch to probably a Ford 8.8 or something lol but right now I need Dana 35 spider gears for the rear

Thank you're a life saver! Asked my local Jeep Club and they told me to ask here lol

How much do you want for em?

I'm looking for a in cabin Fuse block, I have a 1988 MJ pioneer 4x2 with the 2.5L i4, would a 1986 block and harness matter? (MJ or XJ) I've been told the whole front clip is identical, but I'm not 100% certain if year takes in effect between 86-92. Were the fuse blocks universal for the diesel, 4x4, 4x2's, i6, i4?
-
Looking for the fuse block that goes underneath the clutch master cylinder in cabin. You can guess what happened to mine. And Dana 44 rear

Serious help! Ahhhh!!!

I have yet to open her up, once it's not 0 degrees here in KS I will crawl under and open her up! Last year it was drivable with clicking noise and a jerking motion, then it wasnt haha. So I'm thinking it is just the spider gears, could be wrong, (kinda want it to be so I can tell the wife I need to spend more money on the MJ for something better). The pump probably is under warranty but ima see if I can get my money back and try somewhere else. Took 4 clutch master cylinders for O'Reillys to get me a good one and I'm getting older with less time haha. (Gas tank)So last time I checked it it was somewhere between the plastic guard and the tank itself. -

Later on down the road, Jeep Syclone :D. For now... just to get it up and running, maybe daily it to work. -
Hello, its been a while since posted here, but I could use some advice. I believe my Gas tank is leaking. The power steering pump i just got (remaned at O'Reillys) leaks as well. And the rear Dana 35 doesn't grab anymore (whoopsies). Should I replace Gas tank with OEM ish and swap it out, or try an find a lighter alternative like a fuel cell or something. Where can I get a reliable power steering pump?!? And should I try and replace gears in the Dana 35 or replace with something else? Thank you!

here's my 1988 Comanche 2.5L Pioneer US Olympic Edition. 122,769 miles. -
i took out the clutch master cylinder, and got brake fluid everywhere! theres a FB post about it
-
ok sooo. i found out... maybe my hydraulic concentric bearing was not the problem, i think. In fact my clutch issue IS my clutch master cylinder. and BTW, hydraulic concentric bearing aka Slave Cylinder. Sooo i dropped my transmission twice, for no reason. and spent 140$.... for, no, reason. *sigh* trial and error trial and error. So i gotta wait another week for my tech buddie to get back in town and finish this up but soon it will be done! >.< ~Kyle
