    motor mounts with t-case drop

    98 XJ 4wd auto with 1" t-case drop & 2" lift Has anyone ran into this situation with the engine mounts at a weird angle? I am guessing they are like this because of the t-case drop I put in. The Brown Dog mount on the driver side is really at a weird angle and I am getting bad engine vibration...

    Did you take off the hub too? 175 ft lbs is critical for the hub nut.

    Re: Anyone that hasn't adjusted there Throttle Valve cable do it. WOW. Man!!!!!! Where have you been all my XJ's life???!!! Did this today - was more than a half inch out.

    gas smell after cleaning engine

    Cleaned the engine today on my 98 for the first time since 02. I covered the throttle body and sensors along with the PDC etc. I used Gunk engine cleaner (smells funky) and a slow stream from the garden hose. Let things dry for a couple hours then went for a drive. After 10 mins. or so of...

    Door checkes -sources?

    Pull the pins and brackets from the back doors on 4dr. XJ's. They will most likely be in good shape - better than the driver or pass. doors.

    ramifications with using axle yoke as jack point

    A horrible idea indeed. I took my XJ to a local shop and dropped it off for some work as the new place I live at has a gravel driveway. When I came back to check on it the mechanic had it jacked up (in the parking lot) with a jack stand under the driver side axle yoke. I got very worried after I...

    ramifications with using axle yoke as jack point

    98XJ 4wd What possible damage can be done with using the axle yoke as a jack point (besides the fact that one's gig can be severely harshed if the XJ were to slide off this incorrect jack point while underneath doing front end work)? :skull2: Premature hub bearing unit wear if the axle yoke...

    How to check if motor and trans mounts are bad

    98 XJ 2" BB lift and 1" TC drop installed. Passenger side engine mount in question. Drivers side is fine. However, pass side looks like the rubber is pulled out a bit. Guessing from the TC drop I installed. Do you think the mount is ok? It seems pretty solid after doing the few tests advised...

    2.5" Exhaust worth it?

    Went from 2.5" flowmaster 50 delta cat back to 2.25" dynomax super turbo cat back and had a slight mileage decrease (maybe I am hammering it more because I can't hear it) as well as power loss. The dynomax is much quieter though. :smoker:

    proper way to shim brake pads?

    98 145,000 miles. Had the loose pad knock on driver side. Now new rotors, pads, calipers & hardware. All lubed properly etc. After install had problem with driver side pad catching weird and kind of grinding when apply brakes. The new pads came with shims. The pad instructions said to shim the...
