i don't have a wife but i do have a mom and sister. man do they get pi$$ed when they see their hair dryer hooked up to an extension cord in the drive way :D

i took that hose off when i replaced my manifold and never put it back on but i didnt notice a difference. I wonder why yours was so noticeable

por-15 is the $#!+

i also have the jks tracbar and UCA's. i would deffinetly recommend them no problems yet and articualtion is almost unlimited

i feel your pain with the rotor. i went through the same thing on an expedition i even tried heating it with a torch. it took me 3 days to get it off. i just kept spraying it and eventually went into a fit of hysteria with a monster sledge. went absolutely crazy then had to sit down cuz my vision went fuzzy when i was done but the rotor was loose!!! defenitely took the fun out of the project

thats incredible! imagine writing that program

there aint much better in life than a two wheel burnout :cheers:

could someone explain exactly how a torque converter functions? i never really understood them

the wal mart in farmington

just got a job at wal mart doing tires. i havent started yet so i don't know their policy but i do know that they stock a set of 33x12.5 BFG M/T's. why would u stock a tire u will not mount?

i bought the mossy oak one from advance auto parts and wasnt pleased its pretty loose

wats the biggest lift people are running without lengthening their rear d-shaft? i always worry about dropping my shaft on the trail

there are two different drum and pad options found on the d35. the axle out of my 1990 had shorter pads that were 2.5 inches wide. the axle in my 89 had skinier taller pads. u might be better off bringing and old shoe and drum to the parts store just to be safe.

my 89 4.0 made a similar noise and i replaced the idler pulley and it went away. take of your belt and spin all the pulleys by hand see if any of them don't turn smoothly

thanks jeepdew but i don't have that kind of money around right now. if i win the lottery though ill let u know :cheers:

WOW jeepdew i totally missed ur first post sorry about that. god i must look like an idiot :oops: :oops: :oops:

am i correct that mid way through 88 the ax-15 became the only standard tranny behind the 4.0 in xj/mj's?

the nv3550? is that out of a dodge? will i need a different bellhousing?

thanks pete your always on ur game! do i have any other options for a straight forward conversion to a standard transmission other than the ax-15 and the peugots?

upon searching this forum i believe that it is only compatible with the 4cyl. guess i should research before i ask. correct me if i am wrong though

wats the deal with the ax-4, good tranny or bad. would it be worth my time to swap?

i found a 94 xj 5spd close by that was rolled over with 90k. i may jump on this but antidisestablishmentarianism electrical issues will i have when i swap to a standard. antidisestablishmentarianism happens to the computer and the harnesses that are in mine now. and what electrical will a standard require?

the more i think about it a donor vehicle seems like the best option

well the first one was due to stupidity i had a leak between the tcase and tranny rather then fixing it i just added a little fluid every now and then till one day i ran it real low and then over filled it. the frnt pump seal went and i decided to put in a spare aw-4 and np231 i had rather then replacing the seals because i always had tcase shifting problems. the replacement tranny had 180k and 20 years of neglect on it but it still shifted fine wen i bought the truck it came out of. i did a tranny service and put in some lucas tranny fluid stabilizer it drove good for awhile but ive been towing alot with it recently and it had been showing signs till 2day when it just didnt wanna move anymore.

so i blew my 2nd aw4 today in my 89 comanche 4.0 and I'm thinkin about goin to an ax-15. I'm just looking for some advice from people who have done this conversion. antidisestablishmentarianism other parts will i need and what years will fit best. i may have a lead on one from a 94 yj h.o. any help is appreciated.
