Price dropped to $4400.

I made a mistake on the suspension. It’s not a Rubicon Express 4”, it’s a Rubicon Express Super Flex 4.5” with their rear leaf springs.

This is a 2 door XJ with about 160,000 miles on it. I've done a ton of modifications. I'll list all of them here and follow that up with the bad stuff, which is few. The good stuff: Rubicon 4" lift kit Stainless steel brake lines Tom Woods CV driveshaft & slip yoke eliminator kit Front skid...

Thanks, that was indeed a big help. I'm one of those stubborn people that would spend 1/2 of the day trying to work around things when I could just do what you mentioned and save myself all of that time

Cool! I've never done that one before, but it shouldn't be too hard, except for a bit of a pain bleeding the hydraulic lines. Thanks

So by switching out the steering box will I need other parts or just the steering box?

That could be. The 94 has always been a lot easier to turn. Maybe I need to put some grinding compound in the steering box of the 01. :looser:

I don't know if they're the same or not. I don't think so, but I do know that something is different in terms of steering. I think that they changed it at some point to give more road feedback, as the 1994 doesn't give much feedback at all. And it might not be the power steering pump, but...

I have a 1994 and a 2001 Jeep Cherokee. The 1994 is my rock crawler and I'm going to sell it, but my question is about the 2001. In the 1994 the steering is effortless, easily turns when stopped by just palming the steering wheel. The 2001 requires more effort and always has. Is the...

If I was doing some serious off roading then I would think so, but I pretty much stopped a few years ago, except for the occasional trail, so full lockers are really overkill for what I do now. I'm even thinking about selling off the Dana 44 that I have in the back and going back to a Dana 35...

Thanks, that lines up with all that I could find, but I was hoping that I missed one somewhere. It's not that I don't like the ARB, though I've yet to actually run the wiring, but I was thinking about simplifying the front end instead of adding complexity,

I currently have a Super 30 kit in my XJ with an ARB air locker. As backwards as this may sound, I'd like to remove the ARB and install a limited slip, something like a Detroit Truetrac or the likes. Does anyone make a limited slip that will work with the the Super 30 axles in a Dana 30, or if...

Thank you all. That sounds like an easy fix. It's about time that I found something that I want to change that's simple! :)

I have a 1994 XJ that's about as basic as you can get, 4WD, but no power windows, locks, etc. The issue is that it has idiot lights, no gauges except the speedometer and a fuel gauge where the tachometer would be located. Can I buy the panel with the gauges and swap it out, or is there a lot...

Any new ideas?
