    Dirtbound Offroad

    Just wanted to share my experience I had with dirtbound. About a year ago I purchased a Mojave cut and fold rear bumper from them, the prefabbed bumper as I didn't own a welder at the time. Well to keep it short life happened and I just recently got around to getting mounted, since I screwed up...

    Gear wrench pass thru socket set

    Decided to pick up this set the other day http://www.gearwrench.com/catalog/xl_pass-thru_system/gearratchet/setdetails.jsp?part=893823 I actually bought it for work to set the overhead on the Paccar MX engine since offset wrenches interfere with the rocker hold downs, but after using it...

    Another torque converter thread... but different (I think)

    My torque converter in my 89 AW4 seems to work properly under most circumstances. Except after being put under a heavy load it will not lock up again until the jeep sits for an extended period of time. I've found 2 situations that will cause this to happen: 1. When driving at highway speeds...

    Any Shop Foremen or Service Managers here?

    I've been really gunning for a promotion at work lately and I have a good feeling I may just get offered a Shop Foreman position soon. I was wondering if there are any current shop foremen or service managers here that can give me advice on my first management position? What can I expect...

    Hesco Renix CAI and heat shield, should fit HO as well

    CAI is used, not sure of age. Comes complete with filter and intake adapter. The adapter has to be the best selling point about this kit. With this adapter ANY HO intake can easily be made to fit onto the renix throtle body. Or this kit should fit an HO motor, obviously the adapter would not be...

    Interview today, but got injured this morning

    So I'm about to graduate college, as a public relations major. I was fortunate to secure a interview at the local hospital in a related field. Unfortunately while at work this morning I had a 20lbs piece of metal bracketry fall on my head, cutting it and giving me a minor concussion. I'm now...

    Can't find ccv write up...

    I swear there is a write up about the ccv system that discussed cutting one of the tubes inside the valve cover for the ccv system. I've searched and searched and can't find it. Anyone know where it's at??

    Bearing Noise? transmission or t-case???

    Just installed new Brown Dog rubber motor mounts and a new transmission mount. Old mounts were completely shot and apparently disguised all sorts of issues. The issue that worries me the most is a whirring/faint grinding noise, think it's a bearing but not completely sure. I never heard it...

    having a hell of a time getting a good pattern

    Trying to set up a Nitro gear set in my Dana 30 with an ARB. Here is my most recent set up. I don't like the sharp cut off line at the bottom of the drive pattern and the coast pattern seems thin and long. I hope the pictures are working I'm trying to post from my phone since the internet is...

    HO spectre intake on renix

    I'm going to be purchasing a cowl intake and since quadratec has the spectre's on sale ($20 mail in rebate) I figured I'd go this route. I know spectre makes a kit specifically for the renix era XJs but where this intake enters the cowl it will interfere with my relays I've installed for all my...

    Dust slinger on Alloy USA shaft... not happening

    I'm installing a set of alloy stub shafts and I went to put on the new dust slinger (shield) and it's loose fitting on the stub shaft, but it fits in the seal that's on the back of the hub just fine. Now since the stubs are listed for the tj and yj I looked up a part number for a dust slinger...

    Who has the best wife ever??

    ^^^ THIS GUY ^^^ My birthday gift from the wife.... A total surprise, about a year ago she asked me about welders, I spouted of a few brands and models and thought that was the end of that since we're on a very limitted budget because I'm still going to college. Well turns out she's been...

    Help me ID some aftermarket parts

    So today I attempted to replace my driver side hub assembly. Everything came apart really easy. It had obviously been apart in the near past by the previous owner. This was until I went to remove the axle nut, with a firm foot placed against my standard length ratchet I gave it a couple good...

    HVAC control panel compatibility

    I installed a non AC HVAC control panel into my '89 that was originally equiped with AC. I did this because I converted the AC pump for OBA. I hate have controls for something my vehicle doesn't have. My problem is that my blend door doesn't seem to be working. Do you think the problem is...

    Dana 44 found in my local JY

    Found a dana 44 rear axle under an XJ at my local wrecking yard. I'm going back to pull the axle shafts from it but thought someone on here might be interested in the rest. It was missing the drums and the brake parts, but had the backing plates still intact. They wanted $250 for the entire...
