    REALLY BAD FUEL ECONOMY

    A lot of good points...I would check my upstream O2 sensor. Some lower gearing would help too.

    SYE Alternative?

    Iron Rock HnT, cheaper than this, super easy to install, and works like a charm. Why consider this?

    Need to pull a trailer with 3-4" lift

    I tow my 4500 lb boat and trailer behind my 2000 with RC leafs and their adjustable shackles. I even towed it 1500+ miles once. No sag...works ok, headlights point at the sky, which blows for driving at night :)

    Ironrock hack n tap

    FYI, my 2000 was 1310's. The Iron Rock kit fit perfectly.

    Hacking and tapping.

    Well my bolt is definately not centered, but I have been driving it and there are no vibes. So nice to have a smooth jeep again! I didn't realise just how bad it was. Two of my bolts broke off in the yoke on the differential. I just drilled the holes right through then put in some 1/4"( i...

    Hacking and tapping.

    Last night I cut the tail off my output shaft using the "vehicle-in-reverse method". My cut off wheel on my angle grinder cut through it like butter in a few mins. Made a perfectly straight cut and did even need to clean up the splines! Awesome. So that went great, but I drilled my pilot...

    Part number for 8.25 29 spline yoke

    Does anyone know the part number for a 8.25 29 spline rear yoke? Or any information? I snapped a bolt off in it, then tried to extract it but just effed the whole thing up. Ugh.

    What jeeps are most likely to have the 242 transfer case?

    My 2000 sport has one, another guy around here has a 2000 which doesn't have one. Weird.

    what to do, NP242

    I just ordered my HnT from Iron Rock Offroad. I'll let you know what it's like when I install in a week or two. Seeing as I live where it snows in the winter there is no way I want to give up my 242 with full time 4WD!

    Ironrock hack n tap

    So I guess I will have to get this 5-134x to hook up to my 8.25 in the rear?

    That's brilliant. Ok, I think I will just put a cutoff wheel on the angle grinder and do the reverse thing.

    Hacking and tapping.

    I just ordered an Iron Rock Offroad HnT kit with a refurbed front driveshaft. Just wondering if I have to pull the transfer case out to do the the tapping. What did everyone use to cut the output shaft? I have a sawzall and an angle grinder and plan just to use that... And the tapping...

    I'm putting more lift and bigger tires on the xj

    Oh definately not ideal...just saying, if your short of cash and/or time, you don't have to re gear. A 33 over the stock tire is 1.18 ratio increase. Not that bad. 4.56's would give you 1.28 over 3.55....just a bit extra oomph for the fact that you're accelerating bigger heavier rubber, and...

    That's what she said. Don't listen to the guys saying you need gears for 33s. No way. I have run 33" SS TSL's and now am on 33" KM2s and it runs fine. I have even towed my 4000 lb boat up steap hills, albeit it struggles. For longer towing I put the stock wheels back on. For offroading...
