    soft top dilemma... resolution

    My 2005 TJ soft top has seen (more than) it's share of abuse & neglect over the years. My zippers barely fit together correctly when I bought the Jeep, the passenger side from seat leaks from who knows where, the stitching is starting to leak, the passenger side soft window developed a crack/rip...

    Speed-o problems

    I installed a TeraFlex SS SYE & in the instructions it says to disconnect the 4WD shift linkage & to my surprise there were some wires under tension... I didn't think much of it but after freeing them I now have my speedometer back... now to get the Blue Monkey™ Speedo-Healer

    I might try this. I have a friend that's a professional welder that keeps asking me to get a hold of my Jeep

    Geez, they don't mention any of this when you first get addicted to Jeeps.

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    Without adjustable uppers, lengthening the lowers would be making my pinion angle even worse, right?

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    As of right now, I only have adjustable LCAs. I found a pair of adjustable UCAs/LCAs but the gentleman is taking his time shipping them

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    There won't be any wheeling until I get adjustable uppers & lowers. Wouldn't you shorten the lowers & lengthen the uppers to keep the axle centered?

    Yeah, I'm stuck in "wait" mode until adjustable lowers get here. Same principal except I'm shortening the lowers to bring the bottom of the axle forward to raise the pinion angle. It's what I can afford for right now but I'm looking into getting uppers & lowers asap

    If you're running stock axles 4.88 is the tallest you can go though

    Runnin 35's on a 2.5

    Running 35s on a 4 banger, I'd say go with the 4.88s... I have an 05 4.0 with 33s and auto trans & I'm going to 4.88s sooner than later

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    There is some play in the rear but I'm gonna need air tools (maybe heat) because the bolts are rusted tight. The bushings in my lowers are rebuildable and uppers are still stock. Play in lowers only. I have cam bolts for the lower rears & I'll hopefully be getting the adjustable lowers someone...

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    Maybe pinion angle? I don't have adjustable arms... yet. I found a pair of adjustable LCAs for an unbeatable price (many thanks, Terry Mason), could I get away with just adjustable lowers?

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    I'm thinking it's the rear pinion bearings (inner/outer)... I'd like to get 4.88 gears to throw in while I'm replacing bearings. How much play should I have in the rear output shaft while in neutral?

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    The u joint failed last Sunday & I put the new Tom Woods CV shaft in along with a TeraFlex Super Short SYE. So I've got a new output bearing in the t case & brand new driveshaft from Tom Woods. It doesn't shake every time I dive, some times it's as if nothing is wrong... other times, it's a...

    drive line vibration '05 TJ

    I recently had a rear u joint failure where my drive shaft slid off the yoke and got all banged up on the road. Afterwards it had some nasty drive line vibration (starting around 30 mph) so I installed the SYE kit that I bought thinking that would remedy the situation... well I'd kinda did. It...
