    I'm running the RE adjustable upper and lower (short) arms with drop brackets. 3.5" springs and ACOS. I cracked up the ACOS to gain about another 1.5 inches and now my tierod/drag link are making contact with the passenger side sway bar bracket. Do I need to adjust the arms.? It was fine before...

    Do codes go away?

    Stupid question but as I've spent the last 2+ hours going through searches for EVAP and misfire codes...I have a question I couldn't find an answer to. Let say I have a small evap leak code (PO442 IIRC) and pretend I changed the fuel cap and it fixes it. Would the code go away on its own or will...

    2wd drive shaft parts?

    Since pre-runners seem to be 2wd as often as 4, I thought I'd ask this here. The slip yolk on my '01 2wd XJ got broken and I'm looking to replace it. Does anyone have a part number and/or source to get just that part? I've tried the local parts places and some online but usually it only comes up...

    DIY Spring perches and cross memeber drop.

    Just wondering if anyone makes their own spring perches or cross member drops? I have to cut the perches to change the pinion angle on my CJ's axle and I'm not sure I will be able to save them. They really don't look that complicated to do... are they? And my XJ will likely need to have the...

    8.8, 33s, and wheel spacer q.

    So I'm trying to get an idea of trac width and hope someone can lend some input here. I have an 8.8 somewhat ready to go into my 01. I just got in a set of 1.5" wheel spacers to make up for the narrower width of the 8.8. I'm running factory wheels (15x7) and very narrow 33x9.50x15 BFG ATs. The...

    I was looking online for control arm bushings and came across something that has me scratching my head a little. The catalog I was looking at (4wd hardware) shows a listing for the upper factory style control arm bushing that fits 2000-2001 XJs (and a couple other models of different years). Is...

    Modded a bought bumper...

    Just thought I'd throw this out there... I bought a DIY winch bumper from JCR and was very pleased with it. But since I'm not one to leave well enough alone..and since I really like the design of the ARB bull bar (but not the cost), I figured I'd try and add to the already good design of JCRs...

    Leaf spring holder things...

    I'm trying to find the metal things that go around the leaf springs to keep them all in line. Some are just metal tabs that bend over the springs and some have a bolt on top that keeps them in line but allows them to move free in their intended direction. Don't know what they are called and have...

    Been looking at some of the threads here and I think I got this right, just would like a wiser person to confirm it for me. :) Have a 2001 2WD XJ that I am planning on swapping my 96 Dana 30 into.

    RE long arms as a "kit"??

    Anyone know if RE (or one of their vendors/distributors) sells just their long arm portion of their kit including the cross member? I see on their site where they sell both upper and lower arms for the kit but nothing about the cross member? Is it needed or can the LAs be run using the factory...
