May I ask what brand and model of wheel you are running? I wanted to switch to alloys but didn't think it would be an option. Thanks.

I had to grind an 8th inch off my wj calipers to fit 15" steel rims with I believe 3.75 backspacing. 5 min with a flap disc on each caliper no issues.

Which re-man engine company did you go with? How were the results?

Sounds a lot like what i went though. I chased the wandering steering for years. I even did a full WJ swap, over the knuckle, custom track bar etc. Had it aligned with 5 degrees of caster and 1/16th toe in. It still wondered all over the road and was generally tiring to drive. It ended up...

Just finished WJ brakes on my 98xj. Also my first time getting into brake mods. I have the opposite problem: can lock up 33s no problem, but the pedal is soft. Doesn't quite make it to the floor but its close. I will be following this thread and hope to learn a thing or two.

Thanks for reposting pics.

Bootswerk shift kit for manual trans, NP231, '98 works great for me. going on 4 years now. Some minor adjustment to get it right was required, but that was easy with the threaded linkage.

I have an old Rusty's long arm kit. I can pop out there later today.

WJ swap was the single best modification I've made to the jeep. But, it's expensive, requires fab and lot's of research.

In the marine world, we call these Military Posts. Very stout, can usually hold up to a few 4/0 cable lugs.

Out of curiosity, what didn't you like about the durango box?
