    hatch wiring broke....

    Does anyone with a 97 & up xj have this problem? when i first got the truck, the 3rd brake light and the power lock for the hatch didnt work. Then the wiper, and finally the liscense plate light gave up the ghost. Well, was re-locating the liscense plate on sunday when putting on my tire...

    putting a wrangler 3 speed in place of an aw4

    I've been thinking of swapping my aw4 in my 97 xj for a 3 speed out of a wrangler. point being is i can run a lower axle gear and actually build the trans so it lasts longer and shifts firmer. i could possibly use a manual trans pcm, and use a shifter out of a zj, cause they use the same basic...

    33's with 3.73's?

    i was just wondering if it would be any better than 3.55's with 33's? i am looking at a hp 30 for cheap from a guy on another forum complete from disk to disk with factory arms and everything else. and i have a line on an 8.25 with the same gears. even if the general consensus says no, i...

    engine moving foward when "gettin after it"?

    i've noticed when i'm driving my xj, when i get on it prety hard from a stop, or romp on it hard when off roading, my fan clutch hits the rad support bar. (little round rod that goes from the top to the bottom of the rad) i replaced my alternator yesterday and noticed its starting to dent the...

    95 xj

    We have a 95 xj that we need to get rid of fast, mainly something (anything decent) automatic. it is a 4 cylinder, 5 speed, 4x4, 2 door, and red in color. it has a Dana 30 and 8.25 with 4.10's, ax-5 trans, 231 t-case, and all works excellently. it will need a floor pan patched on the driver's...

    stubby auto console and bench seats, oh my!!

    here's another off the wall question...is there a stubby console for an automatic? i've seen them in standard shift models, but can they be adapted for use in an automatic? and has anyone installed a bench out of a comanche into a 4 dr. cherokee? i'm kinda partial to a bench seat over buckets...

    here's a new one....

    has anyone ever swapped a 5 spd for an automatic? we have a four cylinder xj with a 5 spd, and the woman cant drive stick shift. so i was wondering if at all possible, how hard would it be to find and swap in an auto for it? i know it will probably be a 3 spd out of a wrangler, but is it even...

    how much lift v8 coils/4 cyl xj?

    Just as the title states, how much would those give me in that situation, with nothing more than a stock bumper with aluminum grill guard, and possibly a factory front skid?.....i'm looking nothing more than a solid 2-2.5", mainly to keep costs down by keeping the stock track...

    group question.....

    ok, here it goes.....My 95 4 cyl 5 spd 4x4 xj has an 8.25 rear with 4.10's, and since i would like to have 4.10's in my 97 6 cyl with 31's, would a turdy5 be ok in the 95 if left open, with a maximum of a 235/75/15 tire, and only mild trails? (dd for mileage). 2nd question....i was trying to go...

    Advice for my new xj.....

    Yesterday, i traded our zj for another xj, it's 95, 4 cyl., 5 spd., 2 door, 4wd. Naturally, i'm thinking of modding it some, but not enough to effect milage. My, plan is a little bigger tire, possibly 235/75/15 or 30x9.50, v8 coils/full length aal in rear, and skids/tow hooks. It has an 8.25...

    limited slip for dana 30?

    Does anyone make a limited slip for the Dana 30? I'm looking to install a blueprinted factory trac-loc in the rear, and a limited slip in the front as well. i am choosing this route simply because there will be minimal feedback from the differentials when on the highway. Plus, there will be a...

    will 2 regular car batteries work?

    will they work for a dual battery setup in my jeep? i have a 97, and was looking to build a setup that would be good for running a winch. my reasoning for this is to make it easier on my alternator until i get time and money to hi-mount it and upgrade it to a durango unit. wouldn't you be able...

    there is a junkyard a few miles from my dads house that has at least 3 4 cyl. xj/mj's and they are 5 spd's, which means 4.10's. they by the looks of them have quite a few miles on them and was wondering if it was worth it buying the front axles for gears to regear mine or just buy new gears...
