    Baja shifter

    I puchased a rail shifter from Rory a couple months ago. The best money I have spent on my XJ to date... A quality product, fast shipping, easy install. I plan on purchasing a rock shifter from him sometime in the near future. Being able to hold the AW4 in any gear makes it a crawler out of this...

    Gettin' rid of the airbag........

    That video on U-Tube is EXACTLY why I want to get rid of the airbag... I needed a new wheel, mine has seen it's better days, and started splitting. Tape didn't work too well, and I like the older factory wheels. I DO believe in being as safe as possible, but there comes a point where safety...

    Gettin' rid of the airbag........

    Thank's Joe, This XJ is for offroading, and is going to be trailered wherever it goes. Out where I 4wheel, you have to cross a state highway every once in a while. You are required to have current inspection and plates when crossing or you get fined. { If caught } I am installing another...

    Gettin' rid of the airbag........

    I am going to change out the stock steering wheel on my 95. I was wondering, when I remove it, what consequences I will face ? I have built and installed a custom front winch bumper, and have NO use for an airbag. I don't want it going off in my face if I'm getting into wheelin' a little too...

    Lock Right trouble

    I just installed Powertrax in the front, and rear of my 95. If you have the right setup for your model I would think it would have something to do with the springs, and/or pins. Did you make sure the pins were in both holes and not cocked after installing springs ? { I had to "wiggle" mine a...

    DO I NEED TO CHANGE TRACKBAR ?

    I have a 95 sport, 4.0, auto. I installed a R/C 4 1/2 inch lift, and drilled the trackbar mounting hole according to instructions. Everything went well... I fabricated a front bumper, with winch, so it's pretty heavy. After bumper installation the front rides an inch or two lower than before. I...

    D 30 pin

    I am in the process of installing a Powertrax locker in my d 30. My problem is, the pin won't clear the ring gear. This thing only a 16th of an inch too large, and there is no play in anything. Also instead of a bolt holding the pin, there is a roll pin. Is this o.k. ? 1995 XJ d30

    Check Engine Light

    For some reason ( I believe it's vacuum ) the check engine light appears after starting the engine and applying the brakes... Cold or hot, doesn't matter. I can shut down the engine, and immediately restart, no check engine light. The engine does seem to pulsate if I push hard on the brakes...
