I am a born and bred true to the blood Detroit boy, (even though I live in Seattle now) I have been exchanging fluids with 4x4's for most of my life. When I was 17 I lived for open exhaust on a big block American V8 (My 86 Bronco was running open headers). Nothing is sweeter a sound than the...

Leave your exhaust alone, lift it ONLY when your off-roading requires more clearance and articulation. Put your transmission in Neutral (required) then shift into 4-lo, put it into first and see what it feels like (you won't be going very fast, but you will have lots of power to the ground)...

I'm not doing anything too serious (general trail driving, some water, mud and very few big rocks), a D44 would be really nice, but a huge paycheck is not one of my military benefits. I just need a bit more traction for as little money as possible. I liked the Lock Right for it's simplicity...

what are your plans for your old top?;)

What could be more Patriotic than my plans...I will be working for the Government!

Got my engine running well, just put new tires on it and it is sitting well (89 YJ 4.2L, 30x9.5 r15), now I want to lock my diffs. I've got the stock d35 rear and d30 front. I don't do anything too hardcore off road (it is still my daily driver) but I would like a little more traction. I am...

The ACLU and the left are trying to make Atheism the state religion, and now Superman won't stand for the American way. Anyone ever read 1984? Orwell was right.

I think I might just find a 30 foot piece of mooring line (I am active duty Coast Guard) that way all of your tax dollars can pay for it.;)

I never even thought of the difference between recovery straps and tow straps. I guess I'll go shopping. Anyone know a good source?

sway bar disconnect and or am ignition contron module for an 89YJ 4.2?

This just got really weird. I made all of the adjustments I noted earlier yesterday and took it for a test drive, and it still ran like crap, so I just went to bed. When I got up this morning to go to work, it ran PERFECTLY and has ran great all day. So, I think my YJ has a healing factor or...

Check your ignition switch, as long as all the battery terminals and connections to the starter are clean, I would bet it is the ignition switch.

I have an 89 YJ with a 4.2L. I have put on a motorcraft carb, 10"x4" K&N air filter, done the Nutter Bypass and eliminated all of the emission controls (plate behind EGR valve, plug in cat, etc) she starts and idles fine, but as I was going to drive to work, as soon as I started putting a load...

My problem is that if I am going to do it I am going to do it all the way: Cummins 4BT, t-18 transmission, manual overdrive, Atlas II xfer case, mite as well put in lockers, d44's......$15,000 later I'll have a really nice rig. If only I had $15,000 to put into my $3500 YJ.....

I am becomming more and more enchanted by the diesel swap option, plenty of power and better mileage, I'll leave the V8's in my teenage years.

by the way, you don't need to lift it to go off roading

I am running the 2150 on my 89 YJ 4.2. There are two screws at the front corners on the base of the carb, those adjust the fuel mixture for each bbl. What I would suggest is to run both screws all the way in (the engine should not run when they are all the way in, if it does, you have other...

When I was 17 I didn't want to hear it either but...don't lift for looks, lift for function (ie actually off roading and need some more clearance). 31x10.50R15's with a really aggressive tread on stock suspension look pretty good to me.

Thanks for the info, good to know. I'll hear from you sunday.

First off, wht does disconnecting the swaybar do for you off road? Obviously a lot given how much has been said about it, so I'll take the disconnect. How much do I send you and to where? I live in zip code 98370. Thanks
