    No need to respond. The engine mounts will not affect the the SFA swap.

    Rock Lizard SFA kit and 4.7l mounts

    Tjkj2002, How does the SFA kit connect to the 3.7 motor mounts? Do you think that the 4.7l mounts, specifically Grand Cherokee mounts, could potentially present a problem with installing the kit? I don't believe that a problem would exist getting everything properly set up. But you can...

    OK, so let's be serious...4.7l swap.

    Bought an '02 Grand Cherokee 4.7l HO. Completely rebuilt brand new, comes with full gasket kit and install kit (hoses, plugs, distributor, water pump, etc.). Since its only the engine, I picked up a set of valve covers, intake manifold, and oil pan. I'm planning on reusing the 3.7 throttle...

    Dana 60 with 15" rims and I think those are Wilwoods stuffed up in there.

    Oversize Tire + Beadlock Balancing

    How do the folks who run 37"+ tire sizes properly balance everything while using beadlock wheels? Dynabeads? Weights? Both? This is one of those questions that I've always been curious about, and now that I am officially going to be running 37s with beadlocks, the question has become...

    Update: The outer differential bearing needs to be replaced. Aside from that the differential is in great shape.

    3" backspacing should help, and and I'm also going with Explorers. Aren't you running 15s, too?

    37x14.50r15 Toyo Open Countrys

    The hardest part about making a decision on tires is that I want to run 15" wheels with 37" tires. For whatever reason, there's not a lot of selection in that range that'll perform well both on and off road. That's one of the reasons why I was originally drawn to the Toyo's. A lot of folks...

    Marlin is giving me a full refund. Pretty sure he's not going to offer them any longer as the company has apparently been a huge pain in the junk to deal with. The D30S is toast. Not sure what's going to happen now. Pretty effing pissed about the whole thing.

    Yep, at 92 lbs per tire, they're heavy beasts. Did your previous 13.50s affect road and offroad handling significantly? I hear that airing them down barely increased tire flex at all. What made you switch over to the MT/R, the weight?

    37x14.50r15 Toyo Open Countrys

    Yep. I changed my mind shortly I after posting this. Steering would immediately go to crap, along with gas mileag, along with flex, etc. The 14.50s are too wide. I don't know that I would gain much except the ability to drive on sand without worry. Not to mention the tire/wheel combo would be...

    37x14.50r15 Toyo Open Countrys

    I want to run with these under the liberty, but I'm curious as to whether or not a 15x10 beadlock will provide sufficient coverage without wearing the tires down prematurely. Yes, I know they are massively heavy. Thoughts?

    The plot thickens. The RCV appears to have caused a fair bit of damage to the awesome D30S: RCV axle damage to D30S - YouTube Just ...wow. :(

    I have a full set of both 4.56 and 4.88 ring and pinions. Both Yukons. When I sell everything, I will be including both ratios.

    I can ship via USPS from my location. It's very cheap. All mail is treated as if I were mailing from the continental United States.

    Sucks because the JBA kit was great but it wasn't ever going to be the rock crawler that I wanted it to be. While it was awesome on trails, rivers,and mountain roads, it couldn't keep up with the big boys in the rock piles. It was a harsh moment to finally have to admit this to myself, too. I...

    It's not that I was wheeling hard, the RCVs have less articulation than my JE Reels. It simply bound up and yanked itself out of the differential. Not to worry, though; I have a pair of full-width D60s on order. My IFS woes will soon be over. :peace:

    Yes, sway bar was disconnected. I can only assume that it happened during a fully drop. No splines stripped, but the boot was shredded something horrible.

    Never had a problem with the JE boot. It's been sitting in my garage with all kinds of crap piled up on it. Probably slid off when I was taking it out.
