    rear shock/spring bound

    When I hit a speed bump, the front remains stiff like I want, but the rear sorta flexes through the whole leaf pack. I want the rear to be STIFF as hell. Think it's the cushy BDS shocks that came with my lift. Thinking about getting Trailmaster SSV shocks if that will help. Think I could put a...

    Daystar Bushings

    I am thinking about purchasing some Daystar bushings. I had Energy Suspension bushings on my old Jeep, but only for the front swaybar. I am looking at: 1. Rear Swaybar bushings part KJ05013 -$36 (do we even have swaybars in the back?!) 2. Front swaybar bushings 25mm swaybar KJ05005 -$20 (How...

    brown spots?!

    I was washing my Jeep today. Finally it's 38 degrees here in snowy NY. I have a 2001 and I noticed brown spots all over the body. It's like the size of a head of a pin. I hope this isn't rust. It comes off with some furious buffing with Mother's Carnauba Cleaner wax. But, I'm starting to get...

    Jeep vs. Hummer.

    I have a 2001 XJ. I tried a little test. I tried pulling a fullsize 2001 H1 Hummer on flat even grounds. However, the H1 only bucked slightly and I smoked all four of my tires while trying to move it. I only moved it 1". This was done on Icy roads. I want to pull a H1!!!! My old 95 XJ pulled...

    brake line woes

    SYE and CV compatibility? I bought my Jeep and noticed the rear brake line keeps drooping lower than the shock mount on my rear passenger side. It is held to the axle with a zip tie (big one too). However, I can push it back to make it droop even with the shock mount (lower). When I articulate...

    SYE and CV compatibility?

    I am seriously leaning towards getting a Teraflex 2" BB. However, I would like to purchase a rubicon express SYE and a CV shaft from RE as well. If I add a 2" BB after installing the SYE and CV, will I need to adjust anything else? Maybe the CV would be short? Or what? (Dont forget I have...

    Fender Flare poll

    RE: Fender flares on my XJ are screwed up... what to do?? I broke 'em all off. now they are each being held in by a pair of carriage screws and twin nuts. I'm getting annoyed by the noises they make. And I miss the wide tire look. (I run 31's on 15x7)

    grille guard questions

    I am thinking about purchasing a westin or similiar brand grille guard for my 2001 XJ. However, I wanted to know if its easy and possible to mount this with my current tow hook brackets. I'd really appreciate some feedback on this and possibly some cheap under 300 bux for a whole new front...

    nerf bars

    Damage If you guys read my other post about my dented framerail. You'd know why I am asking this. I have smittybilt nerfbars that were used on my old Cherokee. I forgot if they needed to be drilled on or not. I am wondering if it would fit on my 01. HEY... we all need the extra security.

    Damage

    Re: RE: Re: RE: HowdyHo! Would denting your framerails cause any serious problems? Mines a slight lazy dent. Not sharp at all. The body is still straight, just the framerail is crushed a little tiny bit from a "too tall" curb and my unlifted XJ.

    2001 XJ noise

    When I stop at normal speeds. Sometimes the rear gives out a quiet clunk and shifts in the rear when I start moving again. I know its not driveline related. Possible leaf alignment or brakes?

    Friends with problems...

    Okay. I have a friend of mine and my Dad's Jeep. They both have problems. My buddy has a late 80's XJ with the 4.0 and a stick. His problem is that when it is warm, not cold... the engine cuts out. It doesn't sputter or anything. its like 100% ----> -150% electrical power. Everything just drops...

    I have a flange on my XJ for the headers to bolt to the catalytic converter. However, it is only present on the 2000 and 2001 XJ. The headers themselves are fine. HOWEVER, I do not want to shell out like 200 to 300 bux for a factory OEM catalytic converter. And sshhhh... I wanna run no cats and...

    tow hook bolts

    I have a custom made tow hook bracket with chevy hooks. It works like a CHARM!!! HOWEVER, I have a slight annoyance of having my swaybar click/clunk against the rearmost mounting bolt that goes through the frame. I was wondering if there is a negative to grinding down the bolt slightly to make...

    5" lift questions

    I am definitely getting a BDS 3" suspension lift with the new rear leaf pack and everything needed to counter vibes, steering, trackbar etc... However, I was thinking about adding a 2" budget boost to bring it up to 5 inches of lift later with 32's. My question is, do I need an SYE for this...
