    '96 4.0 - Still Gift Wrapped

    OK - let's try this again - this time with some pics! 1996 4.0 HO 144K miles young - from an UpCountry white 2 door 5 speed. Never wheeled - was a daily driver. Ran just fine until the alternator crapped out after I parked it next to the house in 2015. No starter (that was donated to my '92)...

    '96 4.0 "Gift Wrapped"

    Not exactly sure how to lay this out, but here goes: 1996 4.0 HO 144K miles young - from an UpCountry white 2 door 5 speed. Never wheeled - was a daily driver. Ran just fine until the alternator crapped out after I parked it next to the house in 2015. No starter (that was donated to my '92)...

    Driveshaft Yokes - Different widths each end?

    OK - w/o the long, sad story . . . . . . had to replace the driveshaft on a '96 XJ 5 speed D35 and after finding ( I thought) a used '96 replacement shaft and putting in new u-joints at each end - the rear u-joint is a 1/4 inch short fitting into the pinion yoke tabs. Made no sense, since the...

    NAXJA MEMBERS - DIRECTOR ELECTION

    In case you haven't been paying attention, go to the Members area and read the statements of the three candidates. And, if one of them strikes any interest - VOTE: :wantyou: Granted - they're all West Coast guys, but they all have a clear interest to serve the global needs of this club - and...

    Another Setback for Paragon

    http://www.standardspeaker.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4843&Itemid=2&PHPSESSID=0cdfbd62ee702eb055dd435c4730c29e Yet another court ruling gives the upper hand back to the land developers - not sure yet over immediate implication to PAP. They had been open on weekends the last...

    Wanted: D35 - 3:07

    Anyone got a serviceable stock D35-3:07 axle laying around? It's for a 5-speed '96, but I figure any '87 - '96 D35 should be fine. Brakes not necessary. New Jersey - Eastern PA is fine - I'll pick it up. Mike in NJ :patriot:

    Thanks . . .

    to Prez Stroker and his "support staff" for yet another enjoyable NACFest. Yeah, as usual, the weather didn't quite cooperate, and we were overrun a "bit" by the Bronco crowd's 40th anniversary get-together at Red Ridge campground, but Paragon's 100+ trails kept everybody focused and...

    NAC Members - NAXJA Director Elections

    Several of you have asked me backchannel why I'm not running again. Is there a problem with the BOD, club issues, etc. etc. I decided to eliminate any backroom whispering by posting on the open Forum. Sorry - no conspiracy theories! :) Sad fact is, because of personal issues, I just haven't...

    Whither, B?

    Was looking at some trivia this morning and was reminded of that fact that Mr. Big Wind(y) has been mum of late. Figured this would be a good place to inquire: Anyone care to speculate on this rare phenomena? What trivia you ask? :D The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational dictionary...

    Clutch M/C Cap '87/'88

    As it says - looking for a SCREW-type (full threads, not slotted) plastic cap for an '87/88 era Clutch Master Cylinder (this M/C has a metal hydraulic line, not the plastic ones of later years). Doesn't have to be shiny, just no cracks. Go take a look into the old parts trucks you've got sittin...

    New/Reman 4.0 - Tapco, Jasper, etc. ???

    Mulling over a replacement long block for my '92. Anybody have any experience with "new" engines from Tapco, Jasper, <shudder> DC, somewhere else? (Yeah, this is might be an OEM Forum issue, but I figured anybody who's played around with full engine swaps is over here. Feel free to switch it...

    NACFest 2004 - 2nd Prelim Sit-Rep

    I'm going to wait a couple of days for a more complete write up until we know everbody's back OK (glad that Tom and Jeff were able to help out Jason on I80 and he's finally back home as well), but just a few quick numbers. From what I can tell from my scribbled notes (and anyone who witnessed...

    Gone Fishin'

    That's it - no more yappin'!!! NACFest is here, but no one will be able to answer any more questions - we're all gone!!! If you need to know something, show up at Red Ridge CG or Paragon over the next few days - there'll be a great bunch of NAXJA'ers there that can help. No need to "register"...

    Cash and Carry!!! (and other NACFest tidbits)

    By this time tomorrow, CHW will be at Red Ridge setting up the North Atlantic Chapter Banner, a whole bunch of unwashed midwesterners will be toolin' along I80 headed for the Appalachians, and many other easterners will be agonizing over the last fixes on their junk before they head to Paragon...

    Happy Birthday - Stroker

    29? Surely you jest - Baby Face Ben still needs parental permission for R-rated cinema! Enjoy your day - we'll celebrate properly at NACFest. (you supply the refreshments, though! :D ) Mike in NJ :patriot:

    Wacky OBD code

    "72" ???? It's a '96, 4.0. Now, I always assumed that, because I can get codes through the ignition key sequence, I have an OBD-I system like my '92. Trouble is, there is no "72" (no seventy series at all). Now, I understand that OBD-II was mandated from the '96 model year, but that is a four...

    NACFEST NAXJA Safety Requirements

    Okay, you members already should know this - but, especially if you're bringing some guests, make sure they are aware of these as well. All rigs will be inspected when they register. As it turns out, these are pretty much Paragon's requirements too, so everybody will be satisfied. NAXJA minimum...

    "OFFICIAL" NACFEST SIGN-UP

    Okay, we had plans for a slick registration page - but people have lives beyond XJ's, so that didn't work out. And, we've got a month to go. I know there has been alot of discussion on various threads about attendance and interest, but we need to get a better count - so that we can plan better...

    B/A -10 Anybody? (in NJ/ eastern PA)

    Ok, I know this isn't the most popular tranny, but, I'm just about done stripping an '88 and before I decide to go through the bother of pulling the trans before I dispose of the hulk, just want to know if there's anybody out there that's interested for some reason. $175 delivered, $75 if you...
