Yep. 4.56’s with 33’s or 35’s, depending on where I’m running- usually 35’s on the Con though.

It should have minimal effect (if any) adverse affect on sealing. Most cars from the 50’s and 60’s have “spreader tabs” for the valve covers and sometimes oil pans to help distribute the bolt pressure to aid in sealing. Not looking to support the motor full time- looking for a fail safe. Every...

I searched and came up dry- and I think I’m destined to build my own. I need beefier motor mounts. I already run the Brown Dog plates and mounts, but I’m also a firm believer in overkill. I run the plates because I snapped the passenger side factory bolts off in 2 of 3, and the block broke on...

The first time I broke bolts on the passenger side was going over railroad tracks. My Jeep has never seen off-road at this point. The second time was shortly after I got back from my second trip to the Rubicon.(I did have a failed DS mount that may have added to the stress on the opposite side...

Title says what I need. F/R Gear install in my 97 XJ, Dana 30/8.25 I live local to Eugene, so that'd be best- but I'm not above going to Portland or even south to Medford if someone knows a good shop with decent rates. It's been a solid 15 years since I rebuilt a diff, and I simply just...

Boostwerks hands down

Anyone have one of these? I know there are a couple of manufactures that made them- I'm not real picky on that aspect of it. Thanks

This was the reply I was wanting to hear- one way or the other. They look like hanging up hunks of iron, but my stock ones aren't beat too terribly bad. You also mention RE short arms- did you just run the ones that were correct length for the lift? Or did you need to shorten them up due to the...

I've ran spacers before and while they were OK (mainly DD and commuting duties back then), I would prefer not running them with the trails I run nowadays- as I do not run limiting straps. That's was my thoughts, although I truly have no idea how much adjustment there is. The lowers are...

So my search yielded a crap-ton of threads, and after sifting through them a while- I can't find a comparable question. I run a 4.5" RE lift F/R with new full spring packs in the rear. I've got a few thousand (95% off road) miles on the lift. My front end is about an inch lower than what I'd...

I run the Solid cover. It's Rubicon rated. :D

^^^ I saw that. Not sure if the dates will work for me though...

I realize this is not the right forum- but it's close... :D Looking for locals with input on Moab. Planning out a trip either late this year (October-ish) or next spring. I've run the Rubicon a couple itmes, and will be running it again this September. I'd like to hit Moab and the main trails...

I ran it last September in my 97. 4.5" RE lift, 33x10.50 BFG KM2, Spartan's F/R, Engine/tranny skid, t-case skid, LCA skids, stout F/R bumpers with winch F/R, SYE, yadda yadda yadda. Went solo with a buddy for a spotter- first trip on the trail ever. I've wheeled lots for 20+ years, but...

Re: Tool Bag & Organization Dragging up the past a bit here.... 😁 Cliff notes- had 15 months to plan a trip on the Rubicon. Had stuff pretty dialed in with 9 months to go. Had a fire and lost my entire shop- tools, on board air, spare parts, 65 nova, etc... Got shop rebuilt and most of...

Anyone know of, or has used a shop in the Eugene, OR vicinity to re-gear axles? THanks in advance

Simplest answer to front axle is--- better driveline angles with lift.

I've got a scanner, I honestly dont know if it has an RPM feature or not. I was just looking for a ballpark of RPM increase- I've heard anywhere from 2-400 increase. Sounded minimal- by no means 4 or 500.

Install location.. Works great- although I have the idiot light dash panel. I have a 6 gauge cluster on the way from a friend (unless I get to the junkyard and find one sooner) so I'll be able to tell exactly how much it bumps the idle. Seems to do a good job on helping alternator output-...
