rear axle bearing race help
cody4359 replied to comanche12's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I'm unsure of what the ford 9" race setup is, but can't you just use a brass punch/hammer? thats what i just did on my d30, but if your asking it must be a different setup :???: -

this is a half donkey tech question so i think it belongs here. I'm deleting my abs in my mj (donor xj harness has abs) ive red of doing the zj dual diaphram swap, but my 96 xj with abs has the dual diaphram. so would a non abs 96+ xj booster/master do the same thing as the zj booster master?? and has anybody tried this, I'm curiouse if it provides the same stopping power as a dual diaphram zj/xj, and i am hesitant to believe salesmen, seems like they will say what you want to hear to make a sale. http://www.4wdandsportutility.com/tech/ ... index.html he wants $350 plus shipping and says its a custom master/booster, but i don't want to pay $350 if i can get the same results for cheaper. typical dilema, max efficency wanted for least amount of coin.... and I'm going to have 33's with d30 up front and 8.25 in the rear with disks

Rhino liner or new carpet?
cody4359 replied to 86ComancheXNate's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
i herculined the floor of my old samurai. i know herculiner is different then rhino but it stunk for weeks and was terribley loud. some floor mats should keep cleaning up fairly quick and keep the wearing areas under them fairly clean. -

Unit bearing source brand do you recommend
cody4359 replied to sinkrun's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
i could really care less what xenophobic means and i won't even bother looking it up, i know my role in life and don't need to search a dictionary to find words so i sound intelligent. yes companies have to outsource, due to greed, expensive labor, AND lack of customers buying their product for the plain fact that they can get it a few bucks cheaper from a chinesse brand. I'm union, local 96 millwright. without unions the work force pay would suffer even more than it is now, everywhere. its sad to see so many americans happy to buy so much chinesse/japanese products. -

Do you honestly believe that China produces Jeep unit bearings on their own initiative? Products that are made in China are made to their customers' specifications. And these customers are American companies. The Chinese are perfectly capable of producing auto parts of the highest quality. They have sent men into outer space so I'm sure they can make a top-notch Jeep unit bearing. But their American customers give them a set price point, which is usually pretty low, in order to maximize profits. I used to work for an American athletic shoe company and we had factories in China and Korea. So I have seen this first hand. We would tell the factories to skimp and cut corners in order to reduce costs, usually against their objections. The factories wanted to produce the best product they could, but we would say no. quality or not, they are made there because labor is so cheap. personally i would rather put food on a americans table than theirs. and i understand that some american companies have their products made over seas, but thats all for the fact that they are trying to get the most profit for themselfs. i support the companies and people that choose to keep producing items in :USAflag: ill pay a little more to have pride in my country than skimp out for a few bucks, and have an american lose a job cause not enough people buy the rare products made here at home. -

i buy american when i can. "Overseas they" just reverse engineer everything that we make then sell it back to us. american money shoud be spent on american companies, we import too much and export not enough. to me, timken and skf are quality products. thoes are the only "small bearing" brands i see from grain elevators to oil refinaries i work in. -
:no: don't expect free stuff, get a job and buy one. and if you don't want somethig fancy, get a damn am/fm from the JY for $5
