    Transmission Flush 04 KJ

    Do this. Big advocate of doing most things yourself this works better if you have the flushing machines. If you still do it yourself despite bobs advise. they recommend doing the filters first as the new fluid (with more detergents, cleaners) will loosen the stuff in your filters.

    Front driveshaft CV is shot?

    Most ignore the **** out of it for years until they hear the chain jingling sound. I'd run it for one more weekend. Didn't see video blocked at work. It still looks like it has grease and not dried to dust. If your comment about play is about rotating shaft and the "backlash" where the...

    Front driveshaft CV is shot?

    When i ordered from them in 2013 had them send USPS. Shipping was 26 bucks. Just looked up invoice. Send them a message their website on confirming shipping price Rebuild kits have actually dropped in price.

    Tire Pressure Tools

    https://www.quadratec.com/products/95202_4111.htm I've spent money on the arb low pressure gauge. Is it calibrated? no idea, arb didn't certify shit. Is it precise? sure. I've also spent 99 c at Canadian tire and bought an inexpensive pencil type. Was it within 1 psi or less? Absolutely...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    When i was truck shopping this was exactly my logic. That and the 8 speed plus 3.92 gears and 33's with no lift.

    JBA Stock UCA vs Lifted UCA

    if your pushing the upper limits of stock arms with OME coils (or any other coil for that matter), the stock uca can make contact with the spring. It makes a horrible racket. Then again if your really pushing it, they will make contact with the jba 4.5 uca too.

    Forum Structure

    Haven't seen a forum yet where google didn't do a better job on most searches. some times the advanced search feature is decent depending on forum structure. Ie you only want to search CRD transmission pan leaks or something. The bigger issues is people doing a piss poor job of labeling...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    while Mastercraft AKA Canadian Tire isn't a premium brand, their stuff takes a beating and i'm pretty sure its not made in Canada. Still going to run you 10 bucks a socket for pieces not in sets. While HF isn't cornwell, Its really nice to be able to pick up some specialty sockets like...

    Uh oh! ID this bolt?

    whatever it may be called it looks like this Flange yoke, pinion yoke, The thingy the ujoint goes in on the rear of the driveshaft. Despite the bolt size, does it have a "max" on it? I'm having jeep withdrawal and can't remember, The above comment on the brakes does have a similar bolt on...

    Uh oh! ID this bolt?

    Why i'm still hanging around. You don't get that sense of community everywhere. Even if that bolt is 9.8 and consistent with metric convention https://www.fastenal.com/en/76/metric-system-and-specifications 9.8 = 900 MPa and 80% of 900 to yield strength; I've still never seen one on...

    Pending Purchase: 4-cyl KJ

    Tom has already answered this. Only thing i'll add is; When your running the V6 and 31 inch tires, you can go to 4.10's. And you will want to immediately despite more power. With the 4, you have no options, A Dana 30A ifs diff only has a max ratio of 4.10. The next option is buy a JBA...

    Pending Purchase: 4-cyl KJ

    Never pay money for nostalgia and buy the V6. Theirs a long list of what that V6 isn't but at the very top of that list is a very disapointing 4 Cyl. If your still unconvinced. Spell out your long term plans for a KJ, that should make your decision very quickly. If your remotely like...

    Uh oh! ID this bolt?

    you know your on an forum where people wrench when you get 8 responses to guess this bolt question? Can't be a metric graded bolt like you'd see on the KJ with the # like that. Can't see i've seen one that ever said 9.0 nor max. 8.8, 10.9 etc sure. but 9.0? ASTM, SAE and ISO Grade Markings...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Now that I have a hemi and hearing the same BS on the ram forums, I finally got a an opinion i can trust. But what would you expect when the forums most popular mod is to change 275 60 20 to 275 65 20's and add a spacer to level it upfront. how did the 265 70 16 's wear since their not 6 or 10...

    U joints: which ones

    I bought the federal mogul precision super strenght ujoints , had a no zerk just a screw you would take out in the cap. didn't really take grease with the needle fitting that great. were part #270's. I also had a driveline vib but i'm willing to say that it wasn't the ujoints. put...

    What do people think on Synthetic Motor Oil

    Fram Ultra XG series part #are great. Apparently there is one more that is good but why go second best. The rest of the orange cans of death can get dusty on the shelf. If i wanted a paper filter I'd buy a napa gold / wix. They are also great also but I wouldn't run a paper filter 12...

    LT/load range E tire pressures

    My 245 75 16 C's liked 34- 37 PSI. I was pretty light. how bad does the chalk look at 33? You'll have less chance of issues at a higher pressure than the heat associated with under inflating. Just don't let anybody convince you that you need 80 PSI like a 2500 series truck.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    is your vib under power and goes away while coasting? Updating your signature also helps and avoids questions like, are you lifted, how high, etc which are coming.
