    detroit truetrac, sanity check/advice needed

    Bringing this back from the dead to say this: THANK YOU SO DAMN MUCH for posting your solution. I looked high and low for this info and couldn't find anyone having the "squeegee" noise from their True Trac. You nailed it. I'll be switching diff lube tonight!! WHEW!!

    Gears! Here's a pattern, guess the shim I need!

    You could simply answer it but instead you're going to the extra effort to be patronizing. Sigh. I already explained the bearing thing and why I didn't use a setup bearing! I gave it a shot. Backlash is well within spec at .007. Just forget it. I know what I'm doing, I was just making...

    Gears! Here's a pattern, guess the shim I need!

    It's an 8.25. I figured the bearing caps were a dead giveaway. Parts store was out of bearings to make a tester so I thought I'd give it a shot with factory shims. Was wondering about how much shim yo remove, I dont do this every day. .005? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Gears! Here's a pattern, guess the shim I need!

    I dont wanna do this 3 times. I think the pinion is too deep. Thoughts? What shim amount should I remove? This was my 1st attempt using new gears with the factory shim set. Pinion too deep? https://imgur.com/gallery/GfcgXdG

    Having factory interior decals made

    I'm having a bunch of brand-new NP242 shift instruction decals (that go above the sun visor) made. Anybody interested? I'm not a vendor, just doing a couple for me and my kid since we were doing 242 conversions, but figured it's like 10 bucks more to have the sticker company make a bunch more...

    1992 Comanche for sale

    It's still for sale, but the owner is probably bummed out. Nobody gets their $ back on a restomod. Restoration to factory stock with almost no miles...still almost never. Really, really really nice Comanche though. Holy shit.

    Wanted: really nice 242 bezel

    Looking for the select track (selec? trac? I can't remember) NP242 shift bezel from a 97-01. Must still have the yellow in the lettering, no fade-through in the bezel's white lines or lettering. PM me!

    Battery opinions

    A battery is the last thing I worry about when it comes to one vs the other. They're all the same thing, rebranded. Red and yellow tops are overpriced crap. Get what fits. 2001 XJ sport (mine), 1999 XJ Sport (sons)

    OME or Bilstein Shocks?

    Bilstein makes their shocks. OME doesn't. I'd stick with Bilsteins all day. Great shock, stiffer ride. 2001 XJ sport (mine), 1999 XJ Sport (sons)

    Auto body work

    Post pictures of the rust. To clarify, replacing floor pans is not a job for someone who doesn't know what tools are required. It requires metal fabrication skill and a very good working knowledge of welding. If you're not that person, this not a job to undertake yourself. You will make the...

    Weekend is over...what did you get done?

    Rear brakes, axle bearings and seals only to still have the rear brakes barely work. I hate drum brakes so much. 2001 XJ sport (mine), 1999 XJ Sport (sons)
