    Shake at 35 mph

    Okay, I just had my wife watch the yokes and front driveshaft while I drove up and down the driveway slow enough for her to watch. The front shaft wasn't turning at all according to her... but like I said I was only going about 5 mph. I then put it in 4wd and she said the shaft was turning. You...

    Shake at 35 mph

    As most of you know, there was a huge storm on the east coast. We got 20 inches here in Jersey! The night of the storm, I went out with the wrangler pulling people out of snowbanks and such. Ended the night by pulling some friends around the neighborhood in an inflatable zodiac boat... good...

    Hey peeps, My wife and I are in the market for a "new" suv. We have been test driving a few for a couple months now, but last night we stopped by a VW dealership since she wanted to test drive the Tiguan. When I was looking around I saw a 5.7 badge... sweet. It's a 2005 GC Hemi with 50k...

    Tank at 1/4 = E

    The tank was identical in size, I used the stock sending unit which was working at the time. The only difference is that there was a little plastic 'tub' lookin thing that was stuck to the bottom of the tank which helped hold the long screen gas filter in. Since it broke off, I just trashed it...

    Tank at 1/4 = E

    Hey guys, A few weeks back I replaced my fuel tank and skid since my jeep fell off the jackstands and destroyed the skid. I got the tank and skid from a 90 YJ. I was leaving a friends house, when my jeep didn't start. The fuel gauge said I had more than a quarter tank so I was fooling...

    Drum to Disk brake swap... Done!

    Well the length of time was really extended by the fact that all the parts I ordered were wrong. But hopefully the only thing that will extend your time is waiting for a machine shop to make the new holes in the disk backing plate and getting the new bearings pressed on by a mechanic. (unless...

    gas tank skid

    For a Kilby gas tank skid? Show me where and I'll buy that... All J Products - Kilby Gas Tank Skids Well I have looked multiple places, they seem to contradict each other... I figured I'd see if anyone knew personally. I asked the guy on craigslist for some pics... seems to be the right one.

    gas tank skid

    Hey anyone replace a gas tank skid recently? Mine is junk... I have a couple choices: Fix mine by cutting out the rust and weld in a new peice (it's stock) Go with a Kilby and drop 300 bucks (wife doesn't like that option) Find another stock one for sale... I actually found a guy selling the...

    Fuel Pump?

    It ended up being a broken hose inside the gas tank... the pump was working but the hole in the hose caused the pump to pump gas back into the tank! The reason it happened? I had the jeep jacked up working on the brakes at a freinds house, 2 days of rain softened the ground and the jack stands...

    Fuel Pump?

    in the fuse box? is there one labeled fuel pump? if so, I missed it. I also read in my chiltons to get a "fuel pressure regulator" and check it with that. I found out that the pump is in the gas tank... I can't imagine replacing it being an easy job.

    Fuel Pump?

    So... I finally finish my drum to disk swap on my 91 YJ... finished the day off bleeding the brakes and driving it around the lawn to test the new brakes. Shut off the jeep and bled the brakes again... ...Wouldn't start again! Just kept cranking, almost like it was out of gas. It sputtered a...

    zj disks on D44

    Hey guys, I finally got some disk brakes for my D44 off a ZJ. I have been researching this for a while, but I still am unclear on one part. Apparently I need a custom spacer so the seal installs correctly... but I have also been seeing people use a "retainer plate"... This guy mentions...
