Thanks for the input guys! I can still put the old one on to get thru inspection, its not rusted enough to fail. Guess I'm just being lazy and don't want to install the old one to take it off and replace it.

Had a homemade one on her when I bought it 10 years ago, its rusted out so I removed to build another and just plain done have the time. Anyone have one/know of one for sale that wont cost a small fortune? I need to get it thru inspection before we have to worry about some sort of snow. Thanks

Hello there. Also in Delaware but haven't been on the forum in YEARS!

I decided a long time ago to just not run sway bars at all!!! HAHAHAHA

I changed the fluid roughly a year ago, called the dealership to make sure what fluid was recommened they said their was a bulletin to use 10w30 motor oil for smoother shifitng, been running that ever since, it shifts great. With the exception of the occasional clunks im gettin out of it. I'm...

So the AX15 in the XJ (1995) is on its way out, after 210k, kinda thought it was its turn, already rebuilt the engine and most everything else. Havent done too much searching on haveing it rebuilt, the only place I called told me they'd have to get it apart but no more than $1300, NO WAY!! Can...

Just some input, dont need anything b/c im covered in all the categories, but the shackles dont provide any lift, just some articulation from the rear leafs, I had them on my XJ before i put on the RE HD leafs with boomerarngs. If anything they may be good for .25-.5 of an inch and thats being...

I have an old school connect to ur battery air pump, now it will prolly take 20 mins to air the tire up with the core out, but none the less, it will air up. I'll be buying the harbor freight or cyclone pump in a couple weeks, it should do MUCH better

I used a vaccuum attachment on an air line to suck the air outta my 35 goodyear MTR, it fits in the back just fine http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n315/HalfBaked543/P1000385.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n315/HalfBaked543/P1000384.jpg

I know its not hard to make one. But I just spent $270 on the tnt one. Kinda makes me have some issues with having to get a shorter on. I guess ill run it for a little while and see how it goes. if I need to get a new one, maybe Ill see if I can re-make the tnt one. Thanks for the input.

OK maybe my brain isnt working correctly on this. But with the over the axle mount, its moving the mounting place for the trac bar over atleast a few inches, so wouldnt I need a shorter trac bar?

If its loose..... like I said, look at the washers between the bolt and the outside of the unibody, if you can spin the washer, then its not tight and needs to be tightened

My old rubber mounts were cracked in half, just like they made my factory headers. I have the rustys poly mounts, he gave me a good deal and I really liek them. They've been in since summer. I also put a crane cam in the 4.0 so the vibes are pretty bad, Im stil not used to them, dont know if...

This may not even be your issue, but I was having the same problem with mine. Put new u-joints in the front axle shafts and it was still there. Found out the 2 outside bolts on the steering box were kinda loose. See if the washer on the outside of the unibody will spin, if it does then its...
