ya ya, I know it's not an xj, but at least it's boneless...

If your coolant level is stable it's probably ok. your compression #'s are ok If it's been sitting some water is normal to come out the exaust.

Ya for shore. And if exact tension is so important why do those spriong loaded tensioners even work....they must get looser and looser over time, no? I've always thought that the spring loaded tensioners I've played with (chev trucks mostly) seemed a lot looser than spec by a tension tool, but...

Hi cLAYH, fancy meetin you so far from home! So as long as it never slips it's tight enough? Or only if it's set to spec with a tension checker? I've never worn out an alternator in the normal sense in my jeeps, it's always shot bearings, usually the rear one oddly enough. Oh and to...

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread holy guacamole this this is bigger than 54" boggers

Just wondering what people's thoughts are around belt tension. Of course the "right" way to set it is with a tension measuring tool, to the proper spec, however I think that the proper spec is on the tighter side of things so that it WILL... NEVER... SLIP even though bearing (idlers...

I'm going to print this and put it in my toolbox

You can use more than one of the rubber coil isolators to get a little more.

That's awesome. In my opinion there is no place where more Jeep knowledge can be found in one place. I'm nowhere near the knowledge level of a lot of the guys on here but it's nice to know someone else found this intereseting. Thanks to NAXJA for a great website and user group.

Ya sorry guys I wrote that without thinking most of you are in the US, actually I wrote it thining to post it on my local board so my prices are way out of wack for you guys....we pay about 35% more for off road stuff here even though our dollar is at over 90 cents. Mine's a manual so I'm pretty...

so they have the rubber boot like the tj then? do they have the same high clearance driveshaft yokes? these would be a little easier to find than tj shafts possibly.

So it's the high clearance type too then? good to know. With the TJ setup you can remove your rear driveshaft and not lose atf.

Are you saying that using the TJ driveshaft setup on a XJ is not a new idea? I've never heard of it before. Please explain. :huh:

Thanks...I think I could put the t-case back up and still have no vibes with a little pinion angle adjustment... I'll work on it and report back! Also I am not claiming that this is in any way "better" than a SYE setup. IT is cheaper and simpler and you can do it (mostly) yourself and that is...

The TJ's stock rear driveshaft is a beatiful thing and rarely gets the rspect it deserves. Obviously it doesn't work with a lift, but consider the flex and articulation that a stock TJ has in the rear, then remind yourself that the driveshaft on an auto trans TJ is less than 12" long and you'll...

Howdy Y'all. I was having issues with the rear driveshaft on my XJ and I devised an interesting alternative setup which has worked well for me. It's been on my Jeep for about 6 months now and Ive been really happy with it, so I figured I would share for those who may be intereseted. So first...

:variety:party1: Ya das supa kool!! Thanks for your advice. Are you 100% sure? I wouldn't mind a second opinion to confirm this before I drop bucks on a parts donor!\ THX!!NAXJA emoticon disclaimer: all emoticons shown below were selected by my 4 y.o. so based on his liking the picture...

ooops!! Its a 94 actually!! And most certainley a 5spd. That's pretty much the only reason I bought it...it is a little rustier than I would like and has a blown 4.0, but IT IS A MANUAL...ZJ...YAY...COOL!:flame::firedevil:rattle::music::pig: note emoticons chosen by my four year old son and...

I just picked up a 95 zj, with a manual:lickout:yes, a manual zj!!\ It is a 4liter/ax15 setup Unfortuneately the engine is toast. Will the engine from an auto fit?? I'm wondering about the pilot bearing...does the auto use the same crank? Can I use a stock bearing or do I need an adaptor? Any...

Allright I'm going to revive this old thread: So am I to understand that an engine from an auto or from a manual will fit into a manual? I just picked up a manual zj (yes, seriously, a manual zj) with a buggered engine. can I install one from an auto without using custom pilot bushing? Thanks!
