    Dana 44 front swap

    Thats an idea. weld a short piece of pipe on the tubes and slip the 3" inners over it. hmmmmm. On the other hand, does Dynatrac sell weld-on axle parts? i'm grasping here... Those beadlocks took me weeks to design and build! I had a sheet of 1/4 inch plate and a frend with a water-jet. took...

    Dana 44 front swap

    Problem is, I just built custom beadlocks and want to keep the 5 on 4.5 pattern. This axle is 2.75" vice 3" from the 3/4 ton. Ironic, I found 3" Cs that will fit but no 2.75!

    Dana 44 front swap

    Just got a dana 44 front from a ’76 ford F-150. I plan to narrow it to rubicon length and use rubi/D30 outers (as well as shafts). Where can I find inner Cs that will fit over 2.75 inch tubes and accept D30 outers? Most importantly; is this an uncommon thing to do with a D44 swap? Lot’s of...

    brake booster upgrade

    I did the brake booster upgrade on my '89 XJ on 33s. I basically copied Starboard Ms write-up. Did all the research, bench bled, bled the lines, I even parked nose bown in a ditch and bled the brakes. Thought a bubble might be stuck in the master cylindar. I have better braking but there is...

    no power to the fuel pump

    "B Latch relay in the ON position." What is this? I used a test light on the realy terminals and found ONE has power all the time, TWO has power with the key switch turned to ON and THREE sends power directly to the pump. I tested this by jumping it and listening for the pump. The other terminal...

    no power to the fuel pump

    Got it! Now, let me throw you a curve ball here. My key ignition crapped out on me. Something to do with the tilt steering. In short, turning the key switch to START didn't engage the starter anymore. SO, I wired the starter to a remote switch. I still have to turn the key switch to the ON...

    no power to the fuel pump

    I had stopped for lunch after about three hours of trail running on a hot day. When I tried to start it up it revved up really high then died and would not start again. After narrowing the problem down to loss of power to the fuel pump with the ignition on, we hot wired the pump to get it...

    Montan Fab Transmission Override Pre 1996

    I purchased the Montana Fab transmission override system, installed it and something is wrong. With the tranny shifted in "D" and the MF selector in “D” it will not shift out of first. While the tranny is in 1-2 the MF selector works as described locking the tranny in 1 or 2 (only) as...
