    How do I check Pinion Bearing Pre-Load?

    Need to put in a new Pinion Seal on my 99 TJ, (Dana 35), and the Tech. manual says to check bearing preload before removing pinion nut. Looks like if I just install a new crush collar instead of trying to re-use the old one, what difference would this make? Has anyone else done this? I know...

    Installing new Exhaust Manifold on 4.0 TJ.......How Hard?

    Iwould like to install one of those new exhaust manifolds for 4.0 ltrs. that have the expansion joints in them that will help to alleviate the cracking problem. I have been putting up with a cracked manifold for some time. How difficult of a job is this? Looks as if though you need to remove...

    TJ AC Drain......Where?

    I know, I know.....Who uses AC in this "topless" time of year? Well, every now and then I must put up the top and turn on the AC for, you know, the other half? Problem is, my drain is apparently stopped up, probably from not using it much. The floor gets all wet and smells musty. I don`t want...

    New Roll Bar Padding

    Okay, I`m sure that I`m not the only Jeep owner that needs new Roll bar pads and covers. Mine are totally faded out and look like crap. I simply cannot afford to drop 134.95 from Bestop for friggin` padding. Is there another source that I can find these for my TJ WITH a sound bar? It would seem...

    Size of nut on pinion yoke?

    I know that there are tons of guys out there who have had these things on and off. The pinion seal on my 99 TJ, (Dana 35), is leaking. BEFORE I get under there with all my tools and stuff this weekend, what size is the nut on there? In case I don`t have a socket that size, I will get one before...

    Synchromesh Fluid? Which One?

    Okay, a while back I read some posts about NOT putting GL-5 gear oil in a TJ manual Trans. because of premature wear of the brass synchros. I went to get some GM Synchromesh because I read here somewhere that either it or Redline was a good alternative. The oil that I have after purchase is in...

    YJ gauges

    1046905 Every once in a while the gauges in my TJ will do this same thing. But also,the check engine light will come on and so will the air bag light. All I do when this happens is just bang on the dash a couple times and they all start working. So, I am assuming that there must be a loose...

    gl-5 or gl-3..

    1048319 Just had to get my two cents here guys, but Mobil-1 makes a really good synthetic gear oil that I use in the Trans. in my 99. It sure makes the thing a LOT smoother, especially on those cold mornings. It seems that the synthetic oils don`t thicken up as much as the conventioal ones...

    all terrain tires?

    1048521 Thats a question we would all like to know! I have a good luck with the BFG`s, but around here more people seem to prefer Pro-Comp or EL-Dorado. Probably the El-Dorado for the price. THe main thing is how well the tire wears on pavement, IF you use them much for that. [addsig]

    Jeep just got ripped off.

    1048570 My condolences go out to you man! I once had a 93 that I truly loved, then I got the urge to by a truck. Now I have another Jeep, but it is nothing like the YJ that I had. Good luck in your pursuit to find it or another! [addsig]
