Im not proud of it, but yeah i watch it. And then i kick myself for watching it. I hate how big of deal they turn little things into. Like the 3rd one when they find the jeep chained to a ledge. "Omg how are we gonna get it down?" Well if i was truly worried about biffing it backing down.. i...

Most of WJ axles that i have seen use CV joints in the axle instead of Spicer U-joints, but its still a dana 30. The bracket for the control arms is a bit wider because they use beefier arms than the XJ. They are not any stronger so i wouldnt bother with it unless your housing is toast and it is...

No pictures, it was at night, in a gravel pit, beer may have played a role.. My buddy in his modified cj5 with lockers had trouble getting to me haha.

Standing in water up to my ankles... on the roof of my XJ..

What exactly is wrong with the engine in the 2000 or 2001?

The H1 is independant all the way around, but I guess you COULD call it a "portal" independant because it Does use gear reduction at the hub, and the axle does go in above the center of the wheel.

The thing about this swap... is that hummers are not exactly known for wheel travel.. sure they would hold up to huge tires and give wicked ground clearance.. but when you take into consideration oh how much work it would be, and the fact that your neighbors wifes toyota camry has more wheel...

:guitar: Alot of tractors.. some of them dont even have u-joints, just gears and shaflts. Though this would probably kill streetability, off road it would be rockin. IMO :guitar:

Gotcha.. I dunno im kinda on a budget. So I am looking at all possible options. I spose best case scenario is the jeepster finally sells and i can buy goodies with the cash :D

Crap I screwed up lol. My other plan is the 8.8 f-150 rear and a hp front from a 70s f series and utilizing the radius arms. So how would a hp44 front be a downgrade compared to the 30?

OK I have done thread search and i didnt find anything..so here goes. I have a 95 with a 8.25 rear. its all stock but i plan to do a 3" RC lift and 31s. I have a 71 jeepster i was wanting to rob the axles from. d27 closed knuckle. D44 rear. Other than the pain in the butt of switching the front...

Sorry to get off topic, but..:roll: WOOHOO!! Montuckey peoples!! Kalispell here..

My friend picked up a wagoneer xj and it has seats that recline back, and tilt back, kind of like a rocking chair. They are VERY comfortable, and I have been snooping around junkyards looking for a pair of em even since i rode in it. Just an idea.

I am looking into doing this as well. But why not cut some hols in the sheet metal and make "cup holders".. something Jeep never thought of haha

Re: Hlaf door 2 door

Only that they suck.. From what I have heard and read, the only place they are even mediocre is in the sand, and even then I would rather have a M/T sportsman drag radial.

Did you find a rope thats the full 150' or did you go shorter? and how do you have that winch mounted on your xj? I have a warn 5687 (same thing but older) laying in storage and im not sure how to mount it so its not killing my approach angle or up to high..

It's a direct bolt on. Unbolt old one, bolt on new one, crack open a beer and smile.

I have seen on TV these guys were building a R-32 Skyline for time attack, and they added a bunch of spot welds everywhere there was a seam, and they filled all the hollow spots in the unibody with a expanding foam. (kinda like great stuff.. but tougher) and the thing was stiff as hell. I think...
