    NP231 SYE Output Seal?

    1997 XJ, NP231 w/ SYE. T-case is leaking and I traced it to the SYE output with UV dye. Is the OE slip yoke seal the same as the SYE seal? I'm not really finding any difference between the two searching online. It's a Rubicon Express SYE and I shot them an "inquiry", just haven't heard...

    Spider Gears reinstall???

    1997 XJ, C8.25. Replaced the wheel bearings and seals, now I can not get the top/bottom spider gears lined up again. How do I need to approach this? My differential experiance is limited. When I put new shafts in they went right back in. Also, the "washer" that is on the back of both gears...

    Thumping in rear?

    1997 XJ, AW4, C8.25. Originaly I heard the thumping when I did a hard left turn into a parking spot. Now I hear it, very loud, all the time in drive and reverse, especially when accelerating. I have no carpet and drain holes everywhere, so I have pinpointed it to near the right rear wheel. The...

    4.0L Moroso "Hi Performance" Oil Pan

    Yeah, no way I'm buying it even if I was willing to modify the exhaust. Just wondering if anybody saw any real benifits.

    4.0L Moroso "Hi Performance" Oil Pan

    Does anybody got any input on this. Quadratec says it only fits wranglers. Is there really any benifit? Also it costs a small fortune for an oil pan. Link: http://www.quadratec.com/products/51009_1002_07.htm

    Which Seats?

    Do you know if any mods need to be made to install them?

    Stuck Pitman Arm!?!

    Goofy question, but you talking about cranking down the puller and not the nut, right? A guy on another site said crank down the nut.

    Stuck Pitman Arm!?!

    1997 XJ. I used freeze off. I used every penetrating oil I have. I heated it (propane torch). I heated then sprayed water on it (internet search suggestion). The rod in the puller is completley flat now. I've got an IR impact that goes to 550 ft/lbs. I also used assorted variations of F bombs...

    Which Seats?

    1997 XJ. I'm looking to get new front seats due to the fact that they have been soaked too many times. I'm looking at the Rugged Ridge 13405.15 Black Denim Sport Seat. Anybody got any recommendation on a good non OE seat?

    Block holes?

    1997 4.0L block, 53010341, 7C3MX25: Here's some pics of a block I tore down last night. Some of the holes just don't look right (very rough). Does anybody see any problems that a shop can't handle. Photobucket: http://s1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg580/wmmccall/?start=all

    Everything you ever wanted to know about the AW4

    Another question: Why is 30-43LE Green Stamp on 4wd XJ's (At least on my '97 4wd w/ NP231)? I've read that is the 2wd model and 40-30LE is the 4wd? Mopar's part# S-4810179 (1994-96 4wd) crosses with 30-43LE. Page 185 (page 10 scrolling pdf) of Mopar Tranny Reman Program site...

    AW4 year changes?

    Thanks. Yeah, apparently your knowledge is trusted by the Jeep God, himself. I ended up on his website and he has "contact Q&A". http://www.4wdmechanix.com/. So much great info.

    Titan Monster 4.9 300 Cubic Inch Jeep Stroker

    This thread has become famous on other XJ and Jeep forums and talk around the "water cooler" at my shop. Don't have actual figures, but I would willing to say that it has hurt Titan sales of their Jeep products. They do have a great reputation with their GM products though.
