    Annoying Powerband

    Hey I got a 91 I6 auto mj with 200k that doesn't make good power till 3000rpm. I've had this noticeable powerband in a 87 and 89 also. I was wondering if it was common on older I6s. The 87 it went away and makes great torque now but the 91 still sucks after 5000k miles of DD. Other than that it...

    Aftermarket Header Gains?

    I searched but couldn't find a thread saying other than which brand to buy. I know everyone buys the APN and what not but are there actual gains? It don't seem like people are buying them for strength, considering every other person cracks theirs. Someone said redoing the rest of the exhaust is...

    4.0 Cam Profiles

    So I got a 96 motor getting new seals and junk to bolt to a 4x4 ax15 for the 4x4 swap in the mj. I'm thinking about getting an aftermarket cam since I've heard the stock one is overlapped for the non egr system. Also the 91 HO in the mj blows on the low end. Then I have a renix xj that rocks...

    Chinese U Joints!

    Broke one today in the d30 on 31's. It was locked on wet flat ground trying to pull another jeep out of the creek. Also had less than 1000 miles on it and could tell it didn't spit the cap cause it was laying on the ground with the pecker in it.

    Tierod Clearance

    So I have an OTK setup and looking to change my steering. The current full length straight tie rod still hits the sway bar brackets and etc. a little. It's sleeved and crap so I think if I go to an OEM type it should clear that but the other problem is the trac bar bracket pokes down right...

    Front Diving While Braking

    So I got stock TJ coils with a 2" spacer and stock replacement Monroe LT shocks. The axle side lower brackets have been raised to the center of the axle and nothing else has been moved. So now that everything that was setup for 4" lift clears, the front end handles horribly bad. Instant...

    Spraying Enamel?

    Wondering how enamel paints lay down and take clear for painting the xj. Rustoleum has an almond gloss color in quarts that would look nice for my 87 to redo the factory paint. It's pretty bad so I figure anything will look better than whats on there now but would like to make sure it last...

    I have an 88 Aw4 in my 87 xj which the PO swapped in. I can't seem to find the breather cap to save my life.
