    1956 CJ5 Fuel system replacement

    Stock 56 engine? Yes you need some lead additive, unless you hardly drive it. Your heads do not have hardened exh. seats or valves that can tolerate unleaded easily.

    1956 CJ5 Fuel system replacement

    IIRC the plastic tanks have had some cap sealing and or cap venting issues. Maybe you are pulling a vacuum in the tank.

    3/4 ton axles in a yj

    Th 400 has a wider pan than a TH350 so you may need a 2 pc front shaft. Your engine is offset to the right further complicating right side front shaft room. So you may need to move the engine to the left a little.

    Jeeps used in firefighting

    xm is right a TJ, YJ, CJ only have about a 250# payload so they really can't carry much equipment. That is not to say they haven't but they are not as useful as a 1 ton pickup or Hummer. There are lots of old CJ's that were used as fire apparatus.

    clicking sound in reverse????

    Robert I was not trying to sound like I was insulting you, so my apologies if I sounded like that. Rather my intention was to keep the OP from embarrassing himself for asking for parts that don't exist, and to give him some idea on the cost of the options mentioned. edco64 another internet...

    What year winch plate

    TX gringo does your frame have the third hole even though you do not have a sway bar? Most "universal" winch plates have multiple holes some get used some do not depending on the chassis.

    clicking sound in reverse????

    There is no "reverse cluster" in a NP231 transfer case. While I will agree a chipped chain gear tooth or reverse transmission gear tooth is likely don't go looking or asking about a reverse gear cluster in a transfer case. The D300 is a right hand drop case, TJ's have left hand drop F. axle. The...

    clicking sound in reverse????

    Based on your description of the events prior to the noise I think you did some damage to either a gear or the chain in the t-case.

    Thinking of building a four link set up

    Nice pictures Johnny, now Tyler these pics are a good example of a typical custom 4 link suspension and how much you will be modifying your Jeep. The suspension looks to be well thought out and executed, I am not criticizing Johnny's work. The "kit" version 4 link suspensions will be a...

    YJ Drive Shaft/ U-Joints

    I was talking about steel shims, although the only time I have seen the aluminum shims crack was when the shim was longer than the spring pad and hung over. Then the unsupported portion cracked but left the part that was supported by the spring pad still intact between the springs and spring...

    engine reving on it's own.

    On ECM equipped Jeeps I have seen this happen only twice. Your TJ has the alternator output controlled by the ECM. If it senses low battery voltage it will increase idle to allow the alternator to compensate. Check your alternator output and battery condition. Both times I saw this it was an...

    Thinking of building a four link set up

    Johnny do you have any pics of the 4 link front suspension you made? Also do you have any pics of a 4 link you made front or rear with 10" of vertical separation at the frame?

    Thinking of building a four link set up

    There is nothing wrong with a leaf spring suspension, other than it too has its limitations. To say a 4 link is weaker or less reliable is simply not true. Look at Dodge, Jeep, Ford they all use 4 link suspensions with no adverse effects on strength or reliability. A properly functioning 4 link...
