Hey all, its been a while since I posted, which doesn't mean you guys missed out on much. It doesn't look like I have missed out on much either since Jeeps haven't changed and it looks like the same posts keep getting posted daily by people who haven't searched and are totally clueless. I am...

Hey all, Just swapped my SYE kit from my old transfer case to the new transfer case. The old case was a 21 spline unit and the new one was 23 the swap was very easy, basically split the two cases in half, then put back together. onnly two mod i had to do to the new case was A: cut the shift...

Hey all, my new jeep was born 2wd, we have swapped over the lift, transmission, t-case, axles etc on to the new jeep, but we need a better way to shift the t-case rather than channel-locks the only options we have come up with so far are A, the stock shifter from the donor 4x4....its too...

Hey all, got a hell of a deal on a nice 94 2 door XJ that was running like hell, it had plenty of power but stumbled, had a lot of hesitation and ran really hot we knew it was burning coolant and had a bad head gasket (exhaust gas was coming out of the radiator cap) quick compression test told...

Hey all, Just bought a 1994 XJ to replace my rolled 1990 trailrig. I have a 4x4 aw4 in storage that came out of a HO, but it doesn not have a transfer case. Can i use the 1990 AW4 in the 1994 jeep? i know it is 21 spline vs 23 spline, but it will take me a minute to locate a transfer case...

Hey all, There was a thread on here a while back about some frame plates that were pre-cut, that ran from the control arm mounts up to the front bumper. I think they were available from a NAXJA member (avanteone maybe?) -Tim

Hey all, Looking at buying a new XJ, this one is a 94, but it was stolen from its owner so the column is all busted up. The high-beam stalk is broken and it doesnt start with a key anymore. other than that its a nice jeep. The 94 has the basic steering wheel (no airbag), no cruise. it has...

just thought i would share this little tidbit. i wheel the piss out of my jeep, and it has no cage when i wheel, and i flex the front out, the front flexes so much that the fan shroud rubs the fan, and this last outing at tellico, nc the cowl actually cracked as well. this is a pic from upper...

hey all, while traveling today i noticed that in TN there are many gas stations that have two different prices listed for diesel, the sign was flashing $2.63 CASH $2.69 CREDIT. what is the reason that they charge extra if you pay with a credit card? i have seen small mom and pop businesses...

hey all, first off, lets not make this into a thread bashing me for not having a cage yet, i am working on a design based on where i want my spare and toolboxes mounted and building/designing around them. after beating up my first stock gas tank, i took the gas tank out of the parts XJ i have...

hey all, i smushed the gas tank in my 1990 a while back and although it wasnt leaking, i decided to replace it. last week i bought a parts jeep for $500, sold the dana 30 for $200 and my brother bought the tranny/tcase and i kept the rest. the donor is a 93, and the lines, the wires, and the...

hey all while attempting to change out the CPS on my heep, i dropped my 11mm socket INTO the bellhousing before i got the first bolt off....trying to get the second bolt off, i dropped my 11mm box end wrench and that mother effer dropped down in the bellhousing as well...i took the inspection...

hey all i was pulling my girlfriends 2wd ranger up a hill, i spooled out the winch cuz it was a long hill and i was pulling her up in reverse. her rear diff started dragging, so i let slack on the winch and put the jeep in park, and got out, it popped out of park and started rolling down the...

hey all swapped a lower mileage 1990 4.0 into my 1990xj. you may recall me having cracks in the block, and i have fixed those thanks for the help. the motor sat for unknown amount of time before i swapped it, and it had a full crankcase of oil when i got it, i changed it of course the first...

hey all, swapped motors and i had a coolant leak, suspected the head gasket. i tore down the intake side of the motor to start getting ready to do the gasket. i found two cracks just above the freeze plugs which appears to be a factory seam all the way down the block. there is a leak above...

hey all just finished swapping a new (to me) engine into my 1990 XJ. the donor was a 1990 MJ so the swap was pretty straight forward. the engine has good idle and good oil psi, but even when sitting it weeps coolant. i have been tracing the leak and it seems to be coming from just above the...

hey all, in the process of swapping a motor right now 1990 4.0 swapping with a much lower mileage 1990 4.0. the header and intake on the newer engine is a bunch better, so i want to reuse all that, but use my old injectors and everything. my fuel injectors are almost brand new 5.0 injectors...

hey all, i think i may have blown a hub, this was probly the last straw for it. what started the symptoms was when i hit a large pothole at probly 45mph. the first noise was a slight grumbling as i coasted/decel. then i didnt notice the noise til i got home and went in reverse, it popped as i...

hey all, i have an old tired RENIX 4.0 in my 1990 and i have been saving to build a stroker to swap in. i was planning on using a renix block for a 100% straightforward swap, but i have the opportunity to get an HO motor for free, so i decided to take it, and stroke it possibly. ill be using...
