Just thought I'd throw this out to ya'll. It's not mine, just came across it, could be interesting? http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=927747

Also, what kind of drive shaft can I get to put in? I just want to go to a junkyard and pull one. Can't I grab a front DS from a wrangler or something?

Is that where you hack off the end of output shaft, tap threads on the end and use a different yoke? I would have to take apart the case to do that anyways, so why not spend $200 and get the kit?

Already has a 1in. drop, can it drop more? Wouldn't that add stress to engine mounts?

My buddy wants to put a SYE kit in his XJ to stop the vibrations from the drive-line. He doesn't do any major off roading, if at all, but likes the 4 in lift on it and doesn't want to drop it. He mostly drive it around town and back and forth from OC to SD as he's in the Navy. Does anyone...

That sounds about the best idea I can think of, I'll give it a try this weekend. Thanks

I'm having an issue with my door locks constantly in "Lock" mode causing a constant drain on my battery causing it to eventually die. I disconnected driver switch, then passenger but something seems to be stuck or there is a short somewhere. when I move one of the switches there is a clicking...

It's just finding the parts here at a decent price is the hardest part. I can get chevy axles all day long, it's the ford/dodge ones that are expensive. It almost seems like it would be easier to swap the tubes on a chevy housing rather than trying to figure out the t-case swap and exhaust...

The manifold comes down on the driver side, so there ought to be a way to get it back on that side, but that would be the biggest problem. However the doubler idea sounds interesting, either way I think it will involve some more time laying in the driveway under the jeep. Thanks guys for all...

I have been thinking of switching to a passenger side drop because I have access to a set of chevy 3/4 ton axles. Wondering if any of you XJ guru's know the easiest way to go about doing that or if it's possible. I have a 1996 automatic tranny, and if I can throw a transfer case on that has a...

I got this rear end to swap into my Jeep XJ, but now I'm selling the Jeep and no longer need the rear end. it's out of an Explorer and that year came with dic brakes. I have EVERYTHING you need to do a swap ino a Jeep XJ. When I pulled the rear end out I made sure to take as much of the E-brake...

Saw this thought someone might be ihnterested: http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/pts/1134776965.html

Sweet deal, hit me up and we'll make it happen, it could even involve some cold beer if necessary.

I'll probably keep the 3.73 and match the front, run it till I get bored and swap a matching set of full with axles in there , sounds reasonable enough to me :gee: at 3.73 and 33 inch tires, I should be fine. I should hit about 2300-2500 rmp at 65mph, not bad. Baby steps, I JUST WANT TO GET...

I am trying to avoid regearing twice, however I lack the funds to do regear both, and get new tires, which would make regearing pointless. So alas i am stuck in this quandary. Or I could wait to do the swap until I have the $ to regear, now that's an idea! that actually just hit me, duh. I'm...

Upgrading my rear end to a Ford 8.8 and need to match my Dana 30 high pinion Front to 3.73 gears, wondering if anyone who's upgraded their front end has a Ring and Pinion set they'd get rid of at a good price. Cheers

I was hoping to find one at ecology because they were having a 50% off sale, but they had crap, so I went to pick-you-parts and was there for 30 min in-n-out. It's rather clean, but they charge for everything, brake cables, calipers, you name it. i think it's worth it when I just read a forum...
