    '97 4.0 Key does nothing but doesn't seem like any fuses are blown?

    My XJ has been sitting for over a year with no front axle. It has been exposed to the weather (no doors in front) and has not been sheltered. I have started it every so often and it has been infrequent enough that I usually have to charge the battery. Yesterday I charged the battery and today...

    Non-jeep tech (for now, heh heh) Mercedes 300TD

    So I thought we used to have a tech forum for non-xj questions, but this question will hopefully involve my XJ someday... A friend is selling a 1984 Mercedes 300TD with around 280,000 mi on the clock. Decent condition, test drove it today and the tranny shifts hard & there's a little bit of...

    Shackle relocation

    Wanting to relocate my shackles further back. I have a bumper fabbed that ties into the stock bumper mounts and the stock hitch mounts. I can't remember exactly but I think the angle iron that acts as the nutserts goes back like 15"+ into the framerails. Is this sufficient for suspension? I've...

    Goofy question about diff covers

    So I happen to have 2 stock d30 covers right now... I've been wanting a thicker cover to stiffen things up a bit. Was thinking of welding one to the other to get me a free thicker diff cover.

    Toy 8.4" swap

    So I've found a toy rear from a 99 taco for $150 geared 4.10 w/locker and it looks like it'll be the cheapest way to match the 4.10 d30 front I have. I've searched quite a bit but I can't find a definite answer to some questions... 96+ yota rears are 60" WMS? The rear is about 50 miles away...

    8.25 question

    I've done some searching and can't figure out if there's any way short of pulling the shafts to determine the spline count on an 8.25. Anyone know off the top of your head if you can see well enough to count the splines with the diff cover off? What I'm really hoping for is a stamped or cast...
