    Rear leaf springs

    Shackle to spring and shackle to frame bolts came out pretty easily on mine, with 2 cans of pblaster on them over a week (northeast/new england history xj). Original springs at 200k/24 years. Fronts frame to eyelet bolts took jumping on a cheater bar’d 1/2” breaker to move. One snapped the...

    Bought the Suburban. Jeep needs a new home (“need” is a stretch, but the right offer i wouldnt say no). Anyone want a relatively rust free chassis with a strong running driveline? Ready for trail duty with lift ans tires plus supporting mods. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    This one is an ‘08 1500 with 220k miles. Ask is $5500 but im not budging more than $4k plus tags if i do pull the trigger. He can pay title and notary fees (his son in a notary…family “discount” 🙄). Im on the fence and need to sleep on it for the night, look around a bit more. Hard to find...

    WJ rear seats went in, half assed at least. Had a passenger so i had to bolt up the backs. Still need more hardware for security. I think the XJ is going to get relegated to strictly daily driven winter and hunting duty. Looking at a 10th gen suburban for towing and seating capacity. Extra...

    The Infamous Oil Filter Adapter

    Isnt there more room from the bottom if on a lift? Im due for this and valve cover gasket at next oil change (and may as well do rockers/pushrods etc) Would there be room from the bottom to get an electric ratchet on it? Or even a 3/4” breaker bar? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    r134a charge amount?

    20oz seems about right from what i recall using at recharge. I bought the 22oz at autozone and only used 3/4 of it. This time round is a full vacuum and fill though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’d rather not… I mean I know it’s kind of useless given the size that it is but I’d rather have it back there lol. I drove around without the front connected and that sucked. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Riding around a lot lately and im starting to suspect the squealing i get from the rear in corners is from the sway bar being off center or working too well with poly/thermoplastic bushings. I notice it more when the leverage is on the left rear wheel. Front could be in a similar pinch. The...

    WJ rear split seat lowers in XJ - mounting to floor or body seam?

    Snagged a rear seat from 01 WJ limited last week, in better shape than the ZJ ones intended to swap in… All the writeups i’ve found are conflicting. Mounting to floor is not my preferred choice as it reduces leg room significantly on driver side and brings the knees up higher. Mounting to...

    WJ autodim mirror swap 99 sport

    Mirror mounted, unwired. First attempt at re-gluing the button failed. Decided the Wiring will run to the factory trip computer harness. Can anyone point me to the TC wiring color chart so o can figure out which one to splice 12v switched? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    99 sport drum brakes: 9” or 10”?

    Im going to do new axle shafts and seals, plus bearings and use those ZJ ones you sent me. Might be a fine time to switch to 5x5 pattern . Figure if i build everything up off the jeep i can do a quicker swap. Pull old, replace seals, install new

    WJ autodim mirror swap 99 sport

    Snagged one for $7 at the junkyard with 4ft of harness. From what i can find, only 3 wires are used. One goes to 12v switched (ignition or otherwise), one to ground, and one to 12v reverse lamp My question is, whats the best 12v switched to tap into up top that wont overload the circuit? First...

    99 sport drum brakes: 9” or 10”?

    During my search i kept seeing 10” listed as “except police vehicles” or something along those lines. I kind of suspected that dana rears got the 10” and the chryco got 9”. We’ll see when the centric kit comes next week if it fits. Only has to hold me over until i can build disc shafts to...

    I wound up at the junkyard today… Ended up pulling some WJ rear seats that were in better shape than my CJ ones in the CJ auto dimming mirror. Does anybody have the wiring schematics for that mirror? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ive done drums on other vehicles, they dont really scare me overall. I just hate doing them lol. Not too worried about the wheel cyl fittings, pb/heat/crows foot wrenches usually make short work of them. Almost have half a mind to leave them alone as long as they arent leaking
