    Driveshaft Issues...

    painting faded fender flares

    hetting them up will bring the oil back to the surface but not to the point of making them wet. The abs plastic has a very high oil content, that is what will make them black again, you do want to be careful not to melt the plastic. Just take your time start out about 3" away from the flare...

    Rebuild vs. Remanned

    You can get away with just the crank and connecting rods but the idea is to make more power. To do this you need more fuel and more air. The air is the easy thing. Chang the intake and the exhaust and your done, they will work with the cam to make everything breath well. As for the fuel you...

    Wheel backspacing

    Gadget is correct on measuring back space. The offset is measuredin positive an negative, that is what you are talking about craig. On a 15 x 8 rim a -12 mm offset is the same as a 3-3/4" backspacing. A -6mm is a 4" backspacing. and a neutral offset is a 4-1/4" backspacing. Stock TJ rims in...

    SYE

    I'm saying they suck to install, To me it is much easier to pull the tc apart and replace the parts then it is to wack the end off and drill and tap the part. I guess I've gotten soft in my elder years. Your right you don't need that heavier shaft, but if your replacing it, why not. I have...
