traitor is right. you gotta pull the tranny and replace the seal. Make sure you put a little grease or oil on the rubber of the seal seal's this will ensure the torque converter does not burn up the seal.

Yeah the whole over the front axle thing takes abit to get used to. I like driving them just because they are freakin huge and really have quite abit of power for there size but they do ride like crap espeacially at speed. We Just Got a brand new one in my unit it is set up as a Fueler. This...

RE has a nice one I am going to go with them.

If you are planning on going with 33's your going to need quite a bit of lift. That is if you are against trimming your fenders. I fit 34's on my 88 with a 3" suspension lift and 2" spacers. But I also had to cut out the fenders about and inch all the way up to the lower body line. at full...

I was the operator of a M984-E1 Hemtt wrecker (heavy expanded multipurpose tactical truck) that is pulling the semi out. I operated that bad beast in Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom 3. She weighs in at 52,000 pounds has a 10ton boom 1250 lb. FT of torque in a v8 detroit deisle. You can...

Who is john and how do I get a hold of him

So are the Super ride bushings as soft as the stock bushings. I am concerned with the twist my axle tube will recive under full flex and don't want a bushing that will not give and such up much of the force. also just for info Big Offroad does have great prices on RE parts just doesn't carry...

Hey thanks for the tips all. I'm going to follow up on these links and see how it goes

I have 231 AMC in my 88 xj Stock (Or atleast that is what the tag say's). I just did the SYE. I bought mine from Rusty's offroad. This unit is sold by Rusty's but it comes from Advanced Adapters. Everything was there in the Box and New. And installation was a snap. I picked mine up for...

I'm looking to build my Very own Long arms. I have been very impressed with Rubicon Express so far and would like to use their supper Flex spherical Bushings, threaded inserts and so on. I was wondering if there is a site that offers these parts any cheaper. Or does anyone know of other...

LoL, Thats defintly an opion. And one I have not dismissed but I will check your link and see what the want for the less permenent Locking aparatus

Well after reading DirtyMJ's thread again. I guess he kind answered my previous question. So I should be fine with stock bushings two upper links and no slip.

Hey has anyone found a good spool for an AMC 20 for a decent price

my original plan is to use jeeps stock rubber bushings at the axle (all four locations) and RE's super flex joints at the frame. After talking with my cousin (dustin) we thought why even have a y link on the drivers side if it really serves no purpose except to look symetrical. This sound good...

I am building my own radius arm suspension up front my cousin was looking on rocky road (for the zuki) and saw that there radius arm on the drivers side had a slip in it. The caption to the right confirms this and they say that this slip is in place to keep the arms from binding as one tire...
