    97 Swap MJ / 2000 XJ Instrument Cluster "No BUS" tested

    So I can't edit my posts-but always a good thing to double read. Correct Bus "pass" is 60ohms, not 120. So-my CCD bus is indeed passing @60 Ohms. To further troubleshoot I've isolated the PCM C3 connector is receiving 12v and grounds have continuity. Wire A17 (the 5v supply for sensors) is...

    97 Swap MJ / 2000 XJ Instrument Cluster "No BUS" tested

    Long time since I've poked around, but still seem some old Winterfest names. Got a new project for my son and I. 89 short bed Comanche, 2000 xj donor. We've completed the swap and are finishing procedures for initial startup. Effectively it is a 2000, no wiring splices for inside the cab or...

    Caster Issue-searched and have #'s

    Ron Excellent reply! My jeep has been lifted with this setup for going on 10yrs! Since I put the current axle in, around 2yrs ago, I haven't driven it much on the street-so I sat the pinion and pulled it out of the garage and onto the trailer to wheel it. I know that in previous axles i've...

    Caster Issue-searched and have #'s

    Thanks for the replies so far guys! I know that the problem is there-but im still wanting to know the "why" behind it-and if i missed anything. I know that a HP d30 SHOULD be able to run 4.5 degrees of caster on a 4.5" lift. I know there's a ton of variables in play with each housing, but...

    Caster Issue-searched and have #'s

    HP d30, 4.56 gears, TNT truss so mounts aren't stock. Custom front shaft, RE adjustable uppers and lowers, drop brackets, 5" lift measured dirty way. Ok so I've been fighting a drivability issue as I'm wanting to take jeep off trailer and drive to more trails-it drives like my caster is too...

    dana 30 axles upgrade

    I couldn't find any useful info on the matter-and at the point I did mine was at the point of just purchasing a new gearset for piece of mind. The biggest question I had was with the understanding that cryo treating would arrange the molecules into a more uniform surface (obviously physics is...

    dana 30 axles upgrade

    When I had my done Bobby Long asked if I would be running it on the street. I wasn't and so he went ahead and heat treated them for me. He said to expect slightly less longevity from a heat treated set. Im in the middle of tow rigs and it has become my DD for the past few weeks. The front...

    2000 XJ Slowwww

    for those wondering-i do not have the extra converters because mine is not a cali emissions. So the cat has been eliminated. Driving with a fuel pressure gauge zip tied to my windshield wiper tonight and through my hood vents i noticed something. For about 20 minutes under load it ran at...

    2000 XJ Slowwww

    Have adjusted throttle cable. I'll try and get the fuel pressure readings tonight seems a good first place to start though it involves removing the c-rok bumper and skid if thats the problem :( Hadn't thought of debris in the muffler. I can easily disconnect the header and run like that for a...

    2000 XJ Slowwww

    im sure you have valid experience with this. This for the past 4+ years has been a trailered trail rig driven occasionally around town. A conservative guess is it gets 1,000 miles/year :) with that said I'm up for checking anything out-so what parts would you suggest i look at that would be...

    2000 XJ Slowwww

    sorry need some clarification-gears have been in for 3+ years with this tire size. Just gave that info because it should be moving along with less effort. I actually love the 4.56's and 32's and didn't have a problem with the engine not liking the combination in the past. It's even better...

    2000 XJ Slowwww

    First off 2000 with coil rail distributor-less ignition system. 4.56 gears and 265 tires (32") 232k miles roughly 90k on engine block. Jeep runs like an unmotivated turtle. Below 2k rpms has decent power anything above that it is gutless. Partial throttle gives same response as full...

    The Great Locker Debate

    I don't know what your re-gear experience was, but with anything other than drop in lunch box lockers your going to have to re-set your gears for the full cases that come with them (whether it be a True-Trac limited slip, detroit, arb, eaton e-locker...) which in my OPINION would be the same as...

    What to do?

    I thought Alloy USA and Yukon produce 30 spline unit bearings for xj's? I went through the same decision back in november, eventually i found a former vendor that would basically build me a d30 with a HP44 center section. You can PM and ill give you the info. I wasn't willing to spend the...

    Gear Pattern Check

    thanks guys! Took the setup bearings out tonight and it turned out to be one of those installs that you are pretty much re-doing it all over again with the final bearings in place. Drive side and coast side
