im in the process of building a 9'' for my yj, my original plan was to run 4.88's but the closest ratio for the 9'' is 4.86, ive seen guys running 4.86 in the rear with 4.88's up front so obviously it can be done but am i setting my self up for disaster 10 or 15k down the road?

hey guys, been a while since ive been on this forum. i recently picked up a 241OR rock trac t-case out of a rubicon, does anyone know if i will have any problems bolting this up to my AX-15?

i blew up the 258 in my yj last weekend and im having a hard time finding another one to replace it, however i do know where i can get a 304, how much work is it going to be to swap it in, ive heard that it is fairly easy and it should bolt right up to the motor mounts and trans, but everyone...

last week my timing chain jumped a tooth (im pretty sure anyway) when i opened up the casing there was about 3/4" of play. i put the #1 cylander to top dead center and marked the distributor. i put the new timing chain and gears in but i cant get anything to line up. Any suggestions?

found a deal on a ford 8.8 and ive been wanting to get rid of that dana 35 for a while now. The only concern i have is the different bolt pattern, i believe the 8.8 5x4.5 and i just bought a set of new rims that are 5x5.5, is there any way to change the bolt pattern without costing me a lot of...

my old 87 yj is getting to be a little unreliable these days so im looking to buy another jeep, i want a tj, are there any model years i should avoid? im looking for something 98 or newer, odds are it isnt going to see the trails cuz i plan on keeping my yj strictly for that.

well, i finally got a day off, so i figured id take the day to relax a little bit, putt around in the garage, but that didnt last very long..... i decided to go wheeling, up here in northern ontario weve been gettin a lot of snow lately so i figured it would be fun, i was right, it was. after...

i was checking out lift kits at rubicon express this morning and i was looking at the lift blocks that they have, i was thinking about going with a 2.5" suspension lift and gettin a set of 1.5" tapered lift blocks to keep this as affordable as possible. Ive seen a lot of guys using hockey pucks...

i have a nasty vibration coming from somewhere in my jeep (87 YJ) its seems to start when i hit about 45 -50 mph, the problem is that it comes and goes, this morning i was doing 80 and nothing, but when it is bad, i turn the wheel and it seems to go away and then as soon as i straighten out its...

ive been thinking about dropping a 304 in my YJ for some time now, will my AX-15 hold up to it? and will i have to change the bellhousing?

im in the middle of swapping out my ba10/5 and np 207 for a AX-15 with a 231, here's the problem, i dont know where the fill plug is, i think its on the left hand side but im not too sure, im also having trouble finding where the vent line goes.....after i find this out, im hoping that it will...

i finally decided to change the head on my 4.2. i bought a 4.0 head off of a cherokee, the guy said it was from a H.0 motor, is there any way i can tell if it is actually a H.0 head?

They finally legalized studded tires again up here in ontario(they banned them years back because people were getting killed by flying studs) I have an old set of tires laying around here i think im going to get studded for the winter wheeling runs, Ice Fishing stuff like that, i should be able...

i burnt the wiper motor in my jeep coming home from work the other day, i cant fold down my windshield cuz the hinges are siezed, i tried to do it last summer and i ended up breaking a hinge, so doing that is out of the question. I guess my only option left is to tear the dash apart, how much...

well, i just found out im going to be working graveyard shift for at least the next month so im not really going to have a lot of time (or energy) left for anything. So since i probably wont be around here too much, i want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

I was flipping through the bargain hunter, when i saw a T5 transmission for sale that came out of an 85 CJ7. Does anyone have any info on these transmissions, im sure it will bolt up to my 4.2 (Which came out of an 83 jeep pickup). the only problem i have is making it fit my NP 207 T case.

4th gear in my peugault transmission gave out this morning, it was working fine yesterday, whenever i put it in 4th and let the clutch out it starts grinding, it feels like it just wont fully engage. If it is going to be to expensive to fix(which it probably will be) i was thinking about going...
