    Transmission Lines and Cooler + FAN

    I have a 96 XJ stock under the hood. I have the well known leaking transmission lines. I want to do 3 things at the same time so any ideas are welcome. I want to add a trans cooler (live in Texas!), change to electric fan (push or pull?) and replace the leaking lines. So do I use a push or pull...

    Why do I have an 8.8 LS?

    OK well thanks to the few that actually talked tach and not bashed everyone else. My rear is out of a Ford Explorer 1998 model and it is an 8.8 which in this case is shorter than the original and I have the spacers on to gain the lost little bit. My question as basically does the FORD 8.8 LS...

    Why do I have an 8.8 LS?

    Retard, now that is funny. Thanks for the vote on my mind condition! I am learning but I am not sure that a LS actually sends power to the traction wheel. I have to plan for the front end too and TrueTrac seems to be the best price. Thoughts?

    Why do I have an 8.8 LS?

    What do you have in the front end? The 8.8 in the rear is from a Ford and for sure is not stock. It has the ABS connector on the top. I guess I really just don't understand LS as I have watched some Eaton videos on YouTube and they show the LS not pulling up the hill. I guess I will have to...

    Why do I have an 8.8 LS?

    I bought a 96 XJ that the prior owner installed a Ford 8.8 rear end. So what I see and read is that it is a LS but will not lock totally. So why go to all of that trouble instead of putting in a "locker"? It is stock in the front end and I want to make it the best I can of course not the most...

    Ford 8.8 95 Explorer Brake info

    OK now I have changed the brakes to match the up for and down tab. Now when I hit the brakes I get a double pop with a fraction of a second delay. I suspect the pads popping 1 2 but it seems to be only on the left side. I looked and the pads look right so now what? There seems to be a 1/16...

    Ford 8.8 95 Explorer Brake info

    What goes where on a Ford 8.8 rear end? The pads have been taken off of the rear end that I have and I have a new set but how do they go? There is a double fork on one end and a single tab on the other. They do say OR/IL or OL/IR which I am guessing means in and out right and left but they...

    I have purchased a fairly modified 1996 2 door XJ with 4x4 auto 6Cyl. I want to have a spare for parts although mine has had the 8.8 swap done. What years of XJ will parts swap or at least be useful? I want to be able to use some of the interior stuff like stearing colum and maybe seats but...
