Trying to remove the carrier in my d30 so I can install my Aussie locker. I've tried every trick in the book and it's barely moved. If it's this hard to get out, it's not going to be any easier to put back in. Just thought I'd see if anyone has a case spreader I could borrow before I try and...

I'm trying to install my Aussie locker in my D30. It's a disco that's been converted to a one piece shaft. I'm trying to get the carrier out, and I've tried every trick in the book. Both shafts are completely out, and both bearing caps are off. I've been trying the rag trick for the last hour...

Ok, as you all know I’ve been trying to get my POS trail ready for a while now with a lot of progress, but not much success. I plan on installing my long arms, fixing my sliders, and installing them this weekend. I also have an Aussie locker on the way for the Dana 30, should be here either...

What happened to meet and greets every month at the local Round Table? Anyone down to start that up again? We could switch between the Gresham and Vancouver like before (3 years ago). Weekends work best for me, how about everyone else?

Bought a welder today. A Hobart 180 with a 80 cu ft tank. Going to the steel yard tomorrow to pick up some scraps to practice on. I need to fab my RK long arm brackets to work with my JCR sliders, since JCR sent me ones for a TNT LA kit. Then after that comes a rear bumper, and who knows from...

Since JCR decided to send me rock sliders set up for the wrong long arms, even after multiple emails, I need some advise on making them work. I was thinking of cutting the RK long arm brackets where the slider mounting plate over laps, then just weld the long arm brackets on. Or I would weld...

Well I've only been back on the boards for about 2 weeks, and now back in Red. Yeah! Also got some work done this last Saturday. Didn't get anything done on fixing the flex plate but did make some progress on cleaning my parents garage in order to have some working room. Here's what I have to...

Hey all, Just wanted to stop in and say Hi. I haven't been on in a while. My XJ has been parked in my parents garage for the last 3 years with my half done job of fixing the flex plate. I'm itching to get wrenching on it and start wheelin again and got on NAXJA for some inspiration. I'm hoping...

Any of you guys have any suggestions? http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=101630

Hey I've read on here that the noise I've been hearing for the last month is probably that the flex plate is either loose or cracked. I pulled the dust cover off and it look fine, the half I could see. But I did notice what looked like a piece of oil pan gasket where the oil pan meets the...

I found a '01 XJ 4.0l for a good price with only 40k on it. Mines tired and getting ready to die on me. What's involved in doing this swap? Is it pretty much a direct swap? I don't have time for anything complicated, I need to be able to do it in a weekend.

I saw an add for a Chevy Dana 44 front end for $100. In the picture it looks like a drivers side drop, but from what I've read, chevy's are pass side drop. Here's the picture Tell me what ya think? Would this be a good swap?

I wanted to see if there is any interest in going to TSF again before NWFest. Personally I didn't get enough of Browns while we were down there. I was thinking of going down July 14th-16th. It's half way between now and NWFest. I have some things to improve on my heep, and I figured a month...

I've finally got around to replacing my wheel bearing (hub assembly). I've got the passenger side all done. And now i'm working on the driver side, the one thats really bad. The axle shaft nut is giving me some problems to say the least. I've got the brake caliper and rotor off. I lubed up the...

I searched and didn't find much My brakes went out today on my cherokee, sliced a brake line some how. So I took it to Les Scwab, happen to be right around the corner from where I ended up finally stopping. The brake lines aren't the only problem now. They told me that my front wheel bearing...

I found a complete ford 9.75 5 lug rear axle with disc brakes for $175. I'm looking for good cheap axles for my xj project. It wont see any street driving. But I was wondering about the normal stuff (ie. ground clearance, strength, aftermarket stuff, etc.) How much fab would it take to mount...

Hey yall... Don't know if anyone here has gone to this in years past. Myself and dvipercop went last year when they had it at browns camp. There was 40 to 50 4x4's there last yeat. Everything from tubed yotas to xterras. Well the reason I bring it up is its coming up again and I would like to...
