Would it be a good idea to put a bushing in the CAD shift fork to make the front axle's locked together all the time? The vacuum is unreliable, and a posi lok is $150. Is this a good idea?

my friend with a 2wd ax-15, bought a used 4wd ax-15 so he could use the rear part of the trans and the mainshaft. We're having trouble getting this thing apart. Is there a manual anywhere on the net? or do you guys have some advice? This is all that stands in the way of him having his MJ...

I'm looking for an AX15 for my friends 90 comanche. It's currently 2wd and he's looking for a 5spd. Willing to pay freight to have it shipped. Thanks.

Alright I know I need to build some armor for my jeep first, and I'm in the process of doing that right now. But what should I do next? I've go money for new gears and a locker, or a 4.5 lift, or tires and wheels. Not enough right now for all 3. You guys have any suggestions on where to...

I found a 79 wagoneer in the junkyard today with an offset dana 44. It's a 3.54 open diff with a 6 lug bolt pattern. Is this even worth picking up for an XJ? It had the front axle too, but I didn't look at it real close. Just noticed it was a driverside drop. Is it worth $100 for each axle...

Ok, after joining this site to help a friend build his MJ I went out and bought a 96 XJ Classic. 4.0, automatic,4x4. It's bone stock right now and I'm not sure where to start. I need it for DD, but would like to wheel in the mountains. Like Swamp Route and Dusy-Ershim. Not planning on...

I read a post that said a 94 axle doesn't use the vacuum disco, then what does it use? Do they have locking hubs? I did do a search on this and didn't find an answer.

will these jeeps with an automatic trans idle up hill in 4 low? The only experince I've had with an auto is in my charger and it won't idle up a steep incline, just sits there and slips. Stupid question but I need to know

I've been reading about long arm kit's and short arm kits but haven't really found why one is needed over the other. Or what the advantage is. Anyone out there care to explain the difference.

What year did Jeep change the interior of the xj? My buddies MJ is a 90 and I like the interior. I looked at a 2000 and don't like it inside as much as the 90, so what year did it change so i know what years to look for? Thanks.

I went driving around the dinkey lakes area yesterday and found a road 9s15 off of 9s66, which is off of 9s69. I was in my ram and it got too narrow for me so I turned around after about 2 miles. anyone know where this comes out? I have a forest service map but it doesn't show many roads. In...

I joined this board to help out a buddy with an MJ and now I've been converted to an XJ fan. Well that and I've beaten up my dodge ram quad cab long bed on the OHV trails now.(174" wheel base is just too long for jeep trails) The wife doesn't think dents in the sheet metal are cool. I used to...

Got a 231 for my buddies jeep today at the junk yard. It's out of an '87 Cherokee and was bolted up to an auto trans. His '90 commanche is a 5 spd, AX5 I belive. Will this work? Will he have to change shafts on his t-case or transmission? We also picked up a Dana 30 with 3.73 gears and a...

Me and a few buddies are heading up to the sierra's this weekend for some wheeling and camping. None of us have ever been to edison or florence lake and we're wondering if we can pull a tent trailer down those roads, or are they too rough? I'll be in my Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 and he'll be in his...

How do you guys mount your rock slides? To be honest I'm not even sure the XJ's have frames like trucks. Thinking about putting some on my buddies MJ and don't know whether to weld them to the frame or bolt them. Either way better or worse than the other.

The new Rubicons get a 4:1 Rock Trac t-case right? this is a 241 case. Can anyone tell me if this would work behind a NV4500? I've got a Dodge Cummins 3/4 truck with a 241D and was wondering if the new rock trac would bolt up to it. Thanks.

Anyone run a 4:1 gear ratio in their jeep? or use an under drive such as the Klune V? Is there an advatage one over the other? Thanks

This is my first post on here and I don't even have a jeep. My friend has a 91 jeep comanche he got from his father in law with 30,000 miles on it. His computer is stuck in ultralow range so I have to ask questions for him. His jeep is a 4.0 with a Dana 44 2 wheel drive 5 speed. It has...
