4.0 Jeep engine. Bought XJ used and as far as I know it's a stock engine with the exception of a K&N intake. I think the(cracked-of course) header on it is stock, but I am not sure. Also unknown if cat is stock or high flow but it dumps into a Flowmaster knock off muffler with a turndown on the...

I will be detailing my rally/rallycross XJ(4.0/AX-15/RWD) build here soon. It's currently at the fab shop having OMP TRS-E-XL race seats installed(among other things). Here's the seats. Trans tunnel bashing required to get them low enough...... In the mean time I found an inspirational...

Yes I've been researching....very common I see. Thanks!

Thanks guys!

I found some good grade carriage bolts............

Well they clamp the stirrup down on the caster shim. So just ditch the carriage bolts entirely and use good grade regular hardware and washers to hold the shims tight? Don't really even need to spot weld the bolts in I guess-as long as it's clamped down it will hold the shims tight.

Yeah-thanks I might try and straighten then reinforce stock one. Lower one on same side looks like it broke off completely then was booger welded back on. That one(actually both lowers) I will replace entirely with beefier brackets. This things been hammered on! And I'm going to hammer on it...

Thanks guys. There are a bunch of aftermarket options. I'll make sure I try to pick up the part that requires the most fitting to the axle.

Replacing my front control arms. Driver side upper arm is pretzeled(bent). The mount it connects to on the axle end is not much better. I might cut it off and weld on a beefier aftermarket one. On the 2wd beam axles is it the same mount as the passenger side? Or are they right and left...

Getting ready to go through suspension on my 1995 RWD 2 door 5-spd 4.0 that I picked up for sideways fun at my local SCCA rallycross. Here it is pictured in front of my ZJ: ...and no...the xj will not be on an 2" bb lift and 31's anymore..when i have it ready for rallycross. Anyway...
