Wow.... 42 people read this and nobody knew the answer!!!! We'll, not being happy with the ebrake return, I took the c-clips out and removed the axles enough to get the ebrake arm out. It was seized andrequired some heat an penetrating fluid to loosen up, and eventually separate. So indeed they...

While installing the brakes on my 8.8 swap I see you can't remove the brake lever while the axle is in. So I left it in and hit it with the wire brush. The lever is a little crusty and moves freely in the backingplate but I'm wondering It looks like the lever is two pieces, are they...

Love how clean the interior went back in, anyone can plop a cage in a gutted interior and call it done, but to go the extra step and put everything back on, its real classy look. Great job guys

So what was he biggest problem mounting them on an early xj? My fronts are trimmed to remove the factory holes and my rears are rolled and folded. I've just about bought them a few times but don't want to if they just plain won't work. Thing is no other flare mfg differentiates between model...

Truss and sleeve the Dana30 if your gonna be launching it,

A cheap fluid pump from the autoparts store makes filling the transmission a breeze I just put redline mt90 in my ax15 and hoping its gonna improve my going into reverse. Havent driven it yet as its still in my shop being built....

Yikes, I read some links attached to one of the posts regarding camshaft specs. 91-95 camshaft with a valve sep angle of 112 but an intake centerline of 120...... Wow.... That's not really screaming to low end torque!!!!! But probably accounts for the table top torque curve! Almost makes me...

sounds like a good idea, I'll keep checkin in to see your progress

i think I'll have to do the lift in stages, do the back and check shackle angle, I can't order the front springs until I figure out if the rear shackle angle is gonna be crap or not. They are used springs so I won't have any settling time in them, the should be already settled. does a...

i also realized that you say you have 4.5" springs but RE's rear lift for the 4.5" superflex is 3.5" springs with an extended shackle. The RC kit uses 4.5" rear springs and NO shackle to get its lift my math goes like this 4.5" spring 1-1.5" relocation bracket 1-1.5" Shackle 8.8 rear diff @...

still, at 6" I would have to run a bigger tire, which I like the looks of but my pocket book doesn't. I just bought a 4.10 gear set for my front end and an 8.8 for the rear with 4.10's and LSD. 8.8 will also gain .25" lift. 4.10's MIGHT work with 33's adn the AX15

how bad was the 4.10 with 33's and 35's ?

Ah crap I didn't realize that was my first post....sorry for asking for help on the first post....its actually my personal pet peeve.....

I got a super cheap set of RC 4.5" leaf springs for my XJ, I'm thinking of running shackle relocation brackets and an extended shackle to get good travel and ride. The problem is I don't think I want 7" of lift. Anyone think there would be a problem removing one leaf,(not sure which one)...
