    Wack's D44 Build 1996 xj

    The last time I was at BD was early December, was cold AF. I sourced the case off eBay, found a "for parts" unit that had the fill plug boss snapped off. Bought it for cheap, and welded in a replacement aluminum bung w/ stainless plug for about $10. Got really lucky, as I have seen these go used...

    Got front axle squared away and centered. Rear brake lines fabricated and new Bilstein shocks installed. Waiting on a reamer for pitman arm and then it’s pretty much complete and ready for trial Run. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Novak or Savvy NV241OR Shifter??

    Novak or Savvy NV241OR Shifter??

    Well thanks for the insight! I stopped at JY and picked up a spare rod and then got a new pack of bushings. Stock shifter is working and cycling through all 4 selections. If this setup fails, I’ll be going Novak cable for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Novak or Savvy NV241OR Shifter??

    Thanks for all the info! I talked to Boostwerks and they said they couldn't confirm if their kit would work or not, and relayed me to Novak, which led me to starting this post. I saw their setup and since the 241 already has the selector upward, it's really just the piece that bolts onto the...

    Novak or Savvy NV241OR Shifter??

    I have had problems with my 231 in the past becoming disengaged. I know the plastic bushings are all worn. That combined with the rust just makes me want to get a fresh setup
