Well here is my build thread. Hope I can provide some helpful insight where needed. I am starting out with an 89 XJ that I bought from olivedrabcj7. It came with the puke gut trans and 231. It had a 3" lift on 31"s. For later reference though I am going to run the drive train that is currently...

Does anyone have a link to the "how to destroy an XJ" video. Thanks

Is there a point at where you have too much air moving thru the radiator and it does not have enough time to displace heat from the fins? I am wanting to put two fans in front of the rad on my 89. I have converted to open but I want to make sure it's cool. I figure two Junkyard special fans in...

I am wanting to put a set of leafs on the front of my XJ but after measuring the widths of both the jeep and axle and determining my placement it ends up being almost dead center on the top of the pumpkin. So has anyone ever trussed an axle and mounted leafs to it? Pics are appreciated. Thanks

Has anyone ever used one of these from an older ford on the 4.0? I can get one for free and I figure it would be awesome to use if I can make it work cheaply. Any info is appreciated. Thanks

I am working on designing my suspension and I measured the underbody of my 89 from front to end and I am also wanting to get an accurate answer as to how high the rails should be off of the ground with the jeep sitting level. I am not sure that mine sits level without taking the wheels off and...

Is there any way that I can tell if the axle is 35 spline without tearing it apart? I do not know what it came out of but any cut and dry indicators there would be helpful also. I do have a list of the BOM's to take with me so I can find out what it's out of but I don't know after that. Any help...

Theoretically how tall is toooo tall to run on coils. Just for the heck of it how tall can you go with coilovers. Thanks James

Who all is running 39.5's or bigger on the factory six and stock trans. List of mods of what you are running would be great. I just hate to spend the money to make all of this work and then have to throw a v8 and different tranny in to get it to move onces I have spent the money to make it work...

The radiator at the top is the Modine 2802. This is the larger two core from what I have read. I just ordered one a few minutes ago and should be here wednesday. Napa wanted $175 so I'll take it for $123.00 shipped LOL :) Hope this helps you all...

OK This axle is supposedly out of the front of a 2001 F-350 tell me guys what you think it is. Thanks James P.S. I have not seen it in person to get any numbers that is why I am asking.

I have found one of these that I can buy the axles from cheap. Are these something that I can use? Any write ups are appreciated.

OK I found this post on some forum and I wanted to get feedback from you all. I am wanting to use these on a front and rear 4-link. This is a quote from that forum "Oh, and this just confirmed - the private labled Summit Heim joints above, are actually QA1 Heim joints. Because of the huge...

Is it plausable to use a condenser as an oil cooler. I am using my AC as OBA so I have no need for it. Any input is appreciated. Thanks James

Well I have an 89 Xj that I am building and I am wondering what I need to do as far as fans. I am converting over to open system at the moment. I was wondering if it would be beneficial to remove the stock clutch fan and mount another electric fan in it's place. Along with that can I use another...

OK guys please don't FLAME because I have searched. I am looking to do the full hydro conversion but have yet so see any details on setups. I am not in a postion to spend 1200 for a kit form PSC and I am open for fabbing, woot woot. Please if anyone can post a parts list of what they used, as...

I was wondering if anyone has used these cages and if they have pics. They have 0 pics available and I am worried about ease of entry and also if the rear seat will still be functional. I am wanting to get the 13 point cage so if anyone has pics of one installed I would be greatly appreciated. I...

I am soon to put the Rock Krawler 8" LA on my 89 and I was wondering if I can squeeze an extra few inches out somewhere. I am open for suggestion. I will modify within reason but not too far to where they do not warranty or at least not removable to take pictures for ;). I am just wanting to get...

I am in the process of buying an 8" Rock Krawler Kit form RC and it says "Requires a transfer case drop kit, or a C.V. Driveshaft Conversion, or a SYE with C.V. Driveshaft Conversion" Which i smy best option for less breakage and should I buy this from them or elsewhere. Thanks James
