Those little fins are the heat sink for the fan clutch! DON'T shave them off! The fan clutch operates from the heat drawn thru the radiator. As the radiator heats up, the warmed air then heats the fan clutch causing it to "grab" alittle more, thus, drawing more fresh COOL air thru the...

The Hi-lift jack is a great off-road tool, as you may already know, it can be used as a winch, can be used to unseat tires from rims, and of course lifting things up. There are some safety factors I think the owners manulas might not cover though (can't say for sure, it's been a few decades...

Nuf said! Wait a minute, ..... My post count is nothing now? Whaaaaaa.......

Those 2 should never mix! If they do/did, "that boy ain't right"

Come to stink about it, my T18 doesn't have one! I was gonna add one to the top shifter plate! Haven't done it yet. Your transmission may not need one with the shift lever being the vent.

sounds like the "cluster gear" went out' My old T176 was noisy in all gears but 4th. The cluster gear is the main shaft all the other gears spin on. Not sure what the rebuild cost is, my back in the day (86' 87ish) bent me over for $800 Had I known I could have swapped in the T18 then for...

You might need new drivelines also. The T5 is a 5sp I believe, and a small "box" the T-18 is HUGH in comparrison and weight! When I swapped out my T176 pos, my T18 was/is 2" longer and 90lbs heaver empty! I needed a longer front driveline and shorter rear drive line. Keep in mind, that there...

I thourghly enjoy my 160amp that came with my Link-Arc welder! Whats nice about thses high-output alternators is at idle they produce over 80amps! I can weld mild 1/8" to 3/16th just off idle! have to rev her up a little for 1/4" or more though. Enjoy....

cat pipe Nope, da transmission has to come off. While you have it out check out the clutcch for wear, replace if necessary. (while you have the transmission out that is!)

Borla. Stainless steel!

Yes, the mod 20 axle can be as good as a 44 almost! The 2-peice axles need to be swapped out for 1-peice. The axle tubes are just a little thinner that those on the D44. The ring gear in the Mod 20 is just a bit larger than that in the D44. So, there are pro's and con's for the Mod 20.

1044055 The instructions that come with the kit are good. I installed the mopar kit on my 82' CJ-5. BEST investment I've made to the thing since my 8274 winch!. Now, I found the install to be somewhat easy, as I've been doing all the mechanical/electrical work on her sincce 82' when I...

1044056 As mentioned eariler, Fuel, Spark, and air are the essitential's Missing one of the 3, motor won't start. With that knowledge, heres a question to ask yourself" What does it need to work?" list all the things it needs to run. Gas, spark, key, (to turn it on) spark plugs & wires...

1044057 The jeep shop manual is definatly much better that the "haynes or chilton" brands little more $$ too. It has sections called "DAR's" Daignosis and repair. The dars list symptoms and causes, block diagrams for troubleshooting. The dar's cover mechanical and electrical problems...

1044058 I strongly recommend the jeep Technical manual, (shop manual) my ran me $90 many moon's ago (decades) Worth the coin's though. The hayns type books only touch on certine things, the rest is "left to teh factory" or sum such s#$%! The Tech manual is what the factory tech use. The...

1044568 I can tell ya from experience that how you mount lights above the windshield will affect how they work for or against you. I mounted 4 KC style 150w off-road lamps to a "light bar" and when I fired them up, I couldn't see out the windshield! Every little spec of dust, moisture, bug...

1044570 Sounds like a coin toss. I know the 4.0's are peppy engins, my friend has a 95' YJ, and it runs circles around my CJ-5 (with the Mopar kit) My set up though on my jeep is for rocks. With 4:10's lockers, 33" BFG's T18 w/ granny1st, it doesn't go any faster than 63mph down the hwy. I...
