I don't think we have any members in the Houston area, but check out www.Where2Wheel.com
Its a brand new site for finding and sharing trails in your local area. Also has a "Need Recovery" feature...
Just ordered some parts to change out my passenger side hub assembly(unit bearing) and u-joint. Here is what I ordered:
Timken Hub Assembly
Spicer 5-760 u-joint
Ball Joint Press for u-joint...
I have the OR-Fab rear tube bumper and the quality is top notch. The tie ins are super beefy and leave you with no concerns after seeing and installing them in person.
The winch bumper looks amazing! That is def getting added to my list! Keep up the good work JCR!
Yah load range E tires are WAY too stiff for an XJ. I have 33x10.5 BFG KM2 load range C and I like the way it rides and drives.
Unless you build up your axles (chromo shafts and tube/truss) when you regear then the smart thing to do is to stick with 33s. Even with 33s your going to want to add a steering box brace to your...
Brasscatz that looks like a blast! Are both XJs stuck in that 2nd pic? Haha I hope there is a 3rd rig out of the shot that isn't stuck. Otherwise 2 stuck rigs and no one to tow them out makes for a...
The condition is amazing! You are very lucky to have found such a jewel!
Thanks for the input guys. When I went over the connections I checked the terminals, but I will check again and make sure they are cranked down tight.
If I do go for a new starter is there...
So I am battling a reoccurring no start issue with my 98 XJ. I have gone over and cleaned all the grounds twice now. All connections are good with proper voltage making its way through the system....
This write up is long and also is for the JK, but it is the most complete write up I have ever come across about DW and how to cure it. Here ya go: http://www.jkowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30723
Haha that's more than a dent!
Make sure that your reverse lights are coming on when you shift into R. That is the third check to make sure your NSS is adjusted correctly. 1-Start in P 2-Reverse lights in R 3-Start in N.
I was going through this very same debate about 3 weeks ago. I didn't want to spend $500+ on a winch bumper when I wasn't planning on adding a winch for awhile. The money was better spend elsewhere...
I did the same thing by rolling a hand truck over bumps in my driveway. I would hold at an almost vertical angle and roll it over an obstacle, then hold the hand truck closer to parallel with the...
Good stuff! They have awesome customer service! I would love to see them develop some XJ products. Let us know what you hear back!
I have no idea how much truth there is to this, but I read on Naxja awhile back an "industry expert" on gears was asked about gear brand preference. He said that as far as product quality goes its...
Good looking bumper!
I was over on Naxja this morning and they seem to think you went out of business. It would prob be in your best interest to hop over there and let them know your still around...
If you want to go all out in ride comfort and performance w/o going long arm you could buy Metalcloak front control arms for the TJ(same size as XJ) and use them in conjunction with control arm drop...
You have to love when unexpected funds come in! Good choice with the arms, those things are bulletproof. If your looking for quality tires on the cheap check out Treadwright tires....
I ended up pulling the trigger on these yesterday, so I am also curios what the optimal shackle angle is? If anyone is willing to throw up some pics of a proper shackle angle that would be awesome!
Nice write up.
I think I am about to pull the trigger on these since I just purchased a rear bumper, and I'm expecting some sagging out of AAL with the addition weight on the rear. I'm thinking...
How big of tires do you want to run?
You can run 37s with an 8 inch lift and proper trimming, but I would say 37s is the absolute max tire size I would run on factory axles and that's with chromo...
Check Amazon for the wheel spacers. I found some rugged ridge ones on there for a steal, and free shipping too. Their quality is just as good as spidertrax and I got them shipped to my house for $140...
