I just put 4:10's in my 98 automatic and it is geared too low for the highway with 32's so I am going to 35's but then it won't be low enough and I will need to put in 4:56's, can't win for losing. You need to change your front carrier if you have a dana 30 in it. If all I did was off road it...

Yeah the CKPS can still cause you problems and not be completely bad (no start) as you had before, they can also cause cam sensor problems as well since they share the same feed. As far as your machine shop saying the O2 sensor might be reading too many hydrocarbons...well the O2 sensor as the...

That TSB is an update. ATF plus four has superseded all other fluids in Chrysler vehicles since it's introduction also for power steering and the NP 231 transfer case. I have 138k miles on my 98 xj with no problems and every Chrysler that comes into our shop gets "Plus 4" except for the CVT...

My bolts broke and have adjustable CA's so I took it out and washerd the the inside of the bracket so it didn't crush when I tightened down the control arm bolts then put a washer on the out side of the control arm bolt head and welded a tab on the mount that would hit the washer if the control...

A good machine shop will magna flux the head to find the crack then grind the crack out, stick the head in an oven then weld it up. Machine afterwards of course. Some machine shops do a process called "nailing" that I am not that familliar with but the way I understand the process is they drive...

I just had aftermarket put in by my buddy and it is perfect, new seal and centered. The seals always look like crap though at the lower corners. Once the glass is set in you can get it centered then tape it and leave a window cracked for a few days to let it set up. I was a tech for the body...

Found the write up on the 10". Thanks.

The cable closest to your finger is called the "throttle valve cable" and is used to boost line pressure in your transmission under heavy acceleration, it also aids the computer in dictating shift points. with it disconnected it should have a little resistance, adjustment is made by pushing the...

Brilliant!

Does the XJ pod that fits in the right rear panel with an 8" sub sound like crap?

Your track bar should not have any movement.

I got backing plates which have the mounting brackets built in, the calipers with bolts, brake lines and E brake cables for 50 bucks from the junk yard. I also grabbed the studs that hold the backing plate on since it is thicker than the stock backing plate. The e brake cables didn't work...

Yeah not bad specs there but if you care... Loosen the rear u-bolts up and knock the right rear forward a little, you will be amazed at how little it takes for you specs to move, get that thrust angle closer to zero. Point three difference on rear camber? Just tighten up a lug nut. lol. For the...

I had an 87 Ramcharger on 38" Swampers with a welded 9.25 rear and Dana 44 front, no problems. 88 Chevy Suburban on 44" Hawgs and welded 14 bolt...no problems. If it's a trail rig then weld it up. Clean the gear lube out real good with brake clean then torch the interior a little to burn away...
