:D Glad you are OK. I have been wondering how it went :cheers:

:D Eagle & I are on the keys at the same time... ;) :cheers:

When you say "case", it's the carrier that you are talking about. The carrier is the part that the ring gear mounts on and if you are going from 3.07 to 4.10, it will require a different carrier as the 3.73 & up carrier is different. The empty vs. loaded simply means that it has or doesn't have spider gears in it. Get it empty if you are going to go with a limited slip or other type of in carrier style traction device.

Looks like a great project. You found the right place to be to learn about and have fun with your truck. Welcome... :cheers:

The correct injectors for your '88 (as long as it is a 4.0L) will be the 19lb. The 24lb would be for a Stroker and I have never seen a use for 30lb for us.

:eek: Man...that thing has been used and abused.

I know Valvoline colors their Synthetic Gear Oil green, but I don't think I have seen engine oil be green before. :nuts:

:cheers: Excellent... :D I hope she was happy with it too.

THIS goes in the (front) other one ;)

Sounds like you probably need THIS ...or possibly THIS ... or maybe both. :cheers:

Well...any updates on when the makeover happens and when we will get to see pics :brows:

My original post about them with all the info & pics is HERE. Maybe Pete or Eagle could just move it from the Classifieds forum to the DIY ;) .

Yep...that is the way to go. I met him when he lived here in FL and set up the deal for us. He is now in NY, but still offers the deal for any Jeeper that knows how it works. It doesn't have to be a Jeep injector purchase either. If you have another vehicle that he offers injectors for, the discount code should still work from what I understand. :cheers:

Yep...according to Weather Underground, it is a strong Cat2 just making landfall. I love Wunderground and I have a paid membership to their site...a whole $5 a year :brows: :laughin:

As one very irritating local weather guy says constantly ...Hunker Down... I am watching the radar and you are definitely in for much rougher weather over the next several hours. Hang in there and keep us posted as long as you can.

Glad to hear you got it worked out. It's a never ending trip with a Jeep...everything you do requires something else to be done :cheers: Just Empty Every Pocket

I haven't had time this weekend to get back to this, but here is a detailed explanation. I understand that simply lifting a vehicle does not effect camber and I also understand the disc on a stick theory...BUT, I know the disc on a stick thing to be wrong...and here is why. (please excuse my crude drawing) Here is a shot of my YJ (D30) that we did an SOA on. The red line shows the ball joint orientation. We mistakenly rotated the pinion up 2 degrees while doing this job and in doing so it changed the camber pushing the top of the tire outward, which in turn destroyed the two front tires in 3 months time. I put some 2 degree shims in it to bring it back down and the tires are wearing perfectly now almost 4 years later. I AM NOT saying that using the pinion/caster is the way to fix a camber issue, but if a person (like me) mistakenly changes the caster/pinion angle, then it will definitely be the cause of the camber issue. :cheers:

You can buy them from Precision Auto Injectors. I have linked this directly to the page you need. Be sure to type in the word " JEEP " in the discount code to get 10% off. He does sell on eBay, BUT...you can not use the 10% discount if you buy from him there. You must use his website for the discount.

I think if I were you, I would be taking my @$$ on up to about Jackson or so for a couple days. :cheers:

Nope...didn't know there was one...

Every Jeep I have seen on that site is over priced for some reason. That is definitely a nice one though :cheers: I have seen those cup holders on eBay many times. Do a search for "XJ cup holder", you will likely find one or two. ;)

They were shipped with brackets :cheers:

Ya'll are saying the same thing that I am...just in a different way :roll: . We are talking about a solid axle vehicle here so what I am saying is "IF" you change the caster/pinion angle...the camber will change. If you have a small camber issue, it can be resolved by a small adjustment to the caster/pinion, but that is not necessarily the best/proper way to do it. If you have adjustable control arms and you change the length of the lowers, but not the uppers...you are changing the caster and in doing so it will change the camber. I hope I have better defined the fact that I do know what I am talking about and that I do know the difference between Caster & Camber :brows: :cheers:

I have never seen a "mass PM" feature on any of the sites that I have been a Mod or Admin for. Admins can send mass e-mails to all members, but not PM's.

:cheers: Nice...Thanks... That is a lot of info on one page :eek:
