I know bassett wheels are big in circle track racing among other things, and I stumbled across these. They seem pretty lightweight (for steel wheels), the price is right, and they're made here in the USA. Does anyone have any experience with these? http://www.bassettwheel.com/dot.html

The battery in my 1996 XJ is pretty old (6 years or so... I think), and I was looking at batteries online, and noted that the size of the batteries changed for 1998, and the CCA rating went from 610CCA to 700CCA. Hmmm... 1993 - 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport Battery, Group Size 58, 610 CCA...

I have a 1974 AMC Javelin. 360v8. I saved 2 AMC 360ci engines from the scrapman (one tired longblock, one shortblock that has 200 miles before breaking the (original, sigh) oil pump drive gears (should have replaced them during rebuild!) that has some surface rust. A hone and it should be...

I ask that you guys pass this info on. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/turbo-lounge/362413-stolen-truck-trailer-car-7.html Someone is in for an ass kicking if one of us enthusiasts catch him.:twak: If you have any leads on the whereabouts of the car or truck seen below, email...

In an effort to avoid a trip to the dealer, my buddy Jim (best friend, and owner of a Cherokee and a Comanche) left the following on my facebook page tonight. I haven't bothered the parts guy yet (I see him enough as it is), but just wondering if anyone knows the specs of the shackle bolts...

pn 53000 http://www.hypertech-inc.com/products-results.aspxl I found one on c-list for $150, and while I used the search button and found that the general feeling over the performance chips were not very great (stock I'm told they already have a pretty aggressive timing curve). Well, in a 'hey...

So the fiancee (soon to be wife as of Saturday!) hates driving my Jeep because of how it handles and steers, saying it's sloppy and leans all over. We decided it's a lot easier for her to drive my Jeep to her work around the corner and I take her little jellybean car up to my work 30 miles...

I swapped out the D35 last fall, and would like to know any ways to externally identify if my 8.25 is the 29 spline or the 27 spline version. It came out of a 'gen 2' XJ, so I'm thinking it's the 29 spline, but would like to know if there are any serial numbers to look out for. Thanks.:cheers:

I wont' go into the long story, there's information at the website, and also a petition I'd like everyone to sign. Support our troops! LINK -Matt

I was looking at a Ford Ranger and it had a Dana 30 front axle (just like our XJs) and noticed it had Warn locking hubs- allowing 2lo! So... I was wondering if anyone tried to install lockouts on a XJ before. I did hit the search button, but not a whole lot came up. -Matt

http://www.topgear.com/uk/games/ Self explanatory. what can I say?

deuce (tastefully modified) M-715 (note snorkel and exhaust... looks like the whole damn thing is submersible) So... you want one, and wifey says "NO! I want shoes, and I want you to cuddle with me while we watch American Idol.":thumbdn: We find ammunition for our 'need more Jeeps' argument...

In spring '09 I had the tailgate seize on me, and I pulled the interior trim and popped it open with a screwdriver. Easy.:guitar: Well I opened it about a week ago and it worked okay, and now it won't open at all. The button presses in, but nothing happens. The screwdriver trick from the...

Being original it's hard as a rock and won't come off the bolt that goes into the axletube without destroying it.:explosion I thought about twisting it counterclockwise and hoping I get the number right when it's tightened to not be twisted at all, but it would be easier to replace it. So, I...

I'm just wondering what kind of lift/suspension setup/shims/tcase drop/SYE/normal DS/whatever everyone has, and what their pinion and DS angle is (difference). Also post what vibes you have... Copy and paste the below to keep it simple. Hopefully someone with a 96+/8.25/same lift and stuff as...

So I pulled the axle out (d35 to 8.25 swap I'm sure many of you have seen up here) and the shims are still hanging there on the bottom of the leafs. Not wanting to use the BFH and screw up the leafs, I thought I'd ask first (I had the leafs installed at a shop, remember this is the rust...

1. what size u-bolts will I need? 2. Will the plates the u-bolts go through to hold the leaves to the D35 work with the 8.25? 3. any random advice? Hmmm... .that's all for now. This is my 'project within a project' thread, lol. -Matt

I'm basically wondering what's the best 8.25 for the XJs are, I don't think the swap would be too difficult and there's probably a writeup somewhere out there, I just haven't searched hard enough for it yet. So- what's the best 8.25 (direct swap to XJ) and is there a vin code or anything to...
