I was wondering if any of you had this problem also. I got a 4" suspension lift, (no body lift at all), and imediatly started having trouble shifting into 2nd, 4th, and Reverse. It's a manual, and all those gears are "down" or towards the driver. I'm thinking the transfer case drop may have...

This may be taken care of by what Bounty Hunter was talking about, (the adjustable cam bolts), but I've heard a few horror stories about the "death wobbles" when using that sort of lift. Aparantly your front wheels can start to shudder so bad at highway speeds that you have to come to a complete...

I have been trying to talk my Father-In-Law into selling me his CJ-5 for three years now, and yesterday he told my wife he was thinking of GIVING it to us! (two weeks after I drop 5 G's on a 93 YJ, new lift and tires, but oh well). The 73 CJ has an AMC 390 and a manual transmission out of an...

I did get the cat and muffler separated eventualy, and left the cat on. HOWEVER, that brings up another question. Where I'm from in Oregon there is no emmissions testing, and so most guys will just cut the cats out on thier older trucks and muscle cars. But I've heard that if you remove the...

After spending the better part of my morning tearing out my old muffler, (after 15 years the cat and muffler basicaly became one unit), I installed the Cheap-O-Cherry Bomb Turbo Muffler I got for 15 bucks at Auto Zone and fired up the YJ. I wanted to puke. I don't know why I was surprised, it...

I got some used TJ flares for my 93 that are all faded out like yours. I was thinking of just scuffing them up with some 80 grit and then spraying them with some of that Wal-Mart brand Rhino liner knock off that comes in a spray can. My friend's hit his bumpers with the stuff and it seems to...

As far as shops go, be carefule! Sometimes they will quote you a price and not even tell you what kit you're getting. What you're doing is perfect. Do your homework and go in to a reputable place. Tell them EXACTLY what you want, and don't let them jerk you around. (can you tell I had a bad...

nevermind, after looking at it again, that would have to be almost a 90 before you have to worry...open mouth, insert foot.:o

Good deal, but watch out if you're getting towed at a sharp angle. Ker-pop!

Should I stick with 8" wide rims or go wider? Tires are 12.5, seems like they're rounding out pretty bad even at lower pressure. I don't want to wear the center tread out too fast. Do you think wider rims would stop the tires from bulging so bad?

I have my 33x12.5s mounted on the stock rims b/c I couldn't afford to get aftermarket just yet. When I do get the cash, I was wondering if it would be better to go ahead and get the offset steel rims, or stick with stock and get the spacers. I personaly like the idea of rims better, (seems...

HA! That's sounds about right for the Dealer's 465,892% markup! Scumbags. Thanks for all the help guys.

And for us Dumb dumbs ECM and VSS would be... what exactly?

I was wondering how much faster I am going actually going with the new 33's compared to what the speedo says. I know there is a hoo****y you can install that gives you the adjusted speed, but I have more important stuff to spend my hard earned dough on, (like and SYE and lockers :shades:)...

BH, You know, I'm not sure. I thought all YJ's came stock with 3.73 but aparetly not. I might have them thought because I don't feel too slugish. If a stop sign is on a hill I'll start in first with the new tires, but flat I can do second with a slight clutch feather... How would I find out...

Oh, and as for mounting, I don't have a TJ, so I'm not sure how much extra space you have, but I'm mounting mine under the dash by the ash tray. I've seen CB's that have channel control on the Mic, if you have that, you could maybe mount the radio under your seat where it is out of sight of...

You can think of Squelch as the sensitivity of your reciever. You'll notice that as you turn it down it will start to make a static sound. That sound is just Noise, or interferance, so you'll want to turn the squelch up untill just after that sound goes away. The higher your squelch, the...

I'd like to get in on this, if that's alright? I just got 33"s. Daily driver, don't plan on going any larger than 35" at the most down the road. AX-15, D30/D35, Hope to see some big rocks once the SYE is installed, but fairly decent trails for now. Is that enough info?

Thanks again BHunter. By the way, noticed you're from S.Illinois. I was stationed in Great Lakes for a year and couldn't find ANYWHERE to go wheeling! I only had a WJ at the time, but still, there wasn't a hill to be climbed anywhere near me. How's the scene down South?

I havn't done anything yet. I decided to just put the seal on and not worry about the sleeve b/c I'm going to have to get an SYE in the near future anyway, so why bother. If it does leak after the new seal it should be slow enough to manage for a couple months.
