At first, I couldn't hear it ratchet with the windows up. Now it is very noticable, even with the radio on. I have also noticed that lately it seems like it takes a while to unlock after I shift back to two wheel drive. It still pulls when turning for a while before it frees up and ratchets...

Mine is pretty loud too, seems to be much more noticable than when I first installed it. I have had people in parking lots come running over telling me my wheels were falling off. I just assumed it was normal...

Quadatec has the upper control arms for $12.95 including the body side bushing. http://www.quadratec.com/cgi-bin/sgdynamo.exe?HTNAME=jeep/cherokee/hardparts/front_suspension.html&UID=2005061019480564

If you lower the back to decrease the drive line angle does it not increase the angle of the front shaft? How come I never here of front driveshaft problems? Cause it already has a double cardan?

No need to get a new carrier if you are going to add a lunch box locker, just get the 29 spline axles and locker and you're good to go.

I was told the rear is in production (29 spline) and will be shipping soon. I just did the front and can't wait to do the rear. BTW, there is no tire size or horsepower limit for the Aussie.

I just put an aussie in the front of mine and I can't imagine the rear working better. My web research indicated the front only would perform better in climbing situations. While I have not run a rear only set up, the increase in traction I have now while climbing is unreal, slippery root...

Thank you, I called and the front diff was off set to the wrong side.

I have the opportunity to buy a set of complete Dana 44 axles from a J10 for $80.00. I have an XJ and am not sure if they can be modified to fit either front or rear. This seems pretty cheap, are they worth buying to resell/trade?

yeah, that's them http://www.quadratec.com/cgi-bin/sgin0101.exe?T1=56010+11&UREQA=1&UREQB=2&UREQC=3&UREQD=4&FNM=13&UID=2005051123562931

I bought the HD and regret it, wish I had bought RE. They are so stiff that I only 5" of travel. I will be replacing soon. On a positive nite, they tow great and you don't need the rear OR front sawy bar anymore, it just doesn't move.

If you don't have a welder you could buy the new XJ kit. http://tandjperformance.com/products-bpp-xrock.htm

Yup. In the rear I used new HD rear springs from Quadratec and 1" Daystar shackles at first but was still too low, no vibes though. Then I cut the eyes off of my old main leafs and put them in the new packs. This gave me 21 1/2", perfect except I now had vibrations. Dropping the TC an 1" got...

My 93 was 17" center of hub to bottom of stock flare, which is pretty close to factory height I believe. Now with (new)V8 GC coils and 1 3'4" spacer I am at 21 1/4".

Mine too, the shift rail should only protrude 1", any longer and it should be cut/ground back.
