I would go with the fabtech first choice, rusty's second...or shop around for bds or re, keep a watch on ebay. With that much lift the stock drive shaft should be fine, only going to need a cv or longer shaft if you get much above 4" of lift...

RE makes a shackle that lets you mount YJ springs on the front of a CJ. I havn't heard of YJ springs being flatter, but who knows...with the wider spring design maybe the springs compress less under the weight of the vehicle and thus don't need as much arch to them? The 1.5" soa springs are...

So i figured out that it only has a chain dampener, not a tensioner. However, i've had some trouble getting the timing chain set right. The manual says to point the two markings on the timing gears towards each other, and then rotate the gears so that there are 15 pins on the chain between the...

Does a 1994 4.0L have a timing chain tensioner? The Chilton manual I have shows one, but I don't remember there being one when I took the motor apart. Is there just that small rubber piece that slides into the inside of the timing chain cover and sits next to the chain, or is there something...

Wow...looks like I'm going with a stinger! haha

I think that if you have a CJ with a D300 transfer case you don't have to disconnect the drive shaft for short trips, you just put the transmission in gear and the t-case in neutral. For long ones you are supposed to stop every so often and rev the Jeep in neutral for a while to circulate oil...

I'm looking into making/buying a front bumper for my CJ7, and have seen quite a few designs out there. To be honest, I kinda like the simple 2x4 steel bumper that is about as wide as the grill, maybe with a small hoop on it. I was wondering though, what is the benefit of having something like a...

Sorry the quality is poor, the pic was taken from some video footage. Not stuck even though it looks it, it just powered on through.

Naw, that's alright. I'll just put the O2 sensor in the pipe right after the header flange. As for the dumps, I was thinking they would be a fun mod for showing off, not anything I would use very often. But, the cali smog tests are pretty strict...I'm going to be cutting it close anyway with...

My vote is go for the 4:1...a Klune-V extreme underdrive would be ideal, but that would be a tight fit for a CJ and pretty darn expensive...

Oh and one of my buddies has a pair of exhaust re-routing valve things on his mustang that mount infront of the muffler (and I guess cat in a newer vehicle), where all he has to do is unscrew 2 wing nuts and remove a small plate and he has open headers. Anybody know what these are called, or how...

Hmmm...lets hope the emissions guys don't know that! I went ahead and bought the header, I suppose I'll just weld a nut for the O2 sensor on the exhaustpipe right after the header/flange. Shouldn't affect emissions at all, only the smog testers here in Cali are pretty strict with the visual...

Instead of a gear swap...in the axles? I would get some good gears in the axles that match your tires before I touched the t-case. I would, however, do the 4:1 over swapping in really low axle gears though if you still want to lower your crawl ratio after gearing the axles...I did the t-case...

So the header will fit...but what about emissions? I can't remember if the '94 has the o2 sensor in the header or in the exhaust pipe. Also am i supposed to have a sticker with it that says something like "smog legal," kinda like the sticker that came with my msd ignition coil?

Good to hear! Thanks!

Anyone know if a borla header made for a 4.0L 1998 TJ will fit on a 1994 cylinder head/motor? I'm building a stroker and came across a used borla header for pretty cheap, not too worried about exact fit in the engine bay/lining up with the exhuast or anything as the motor is going in a CJ7, but...

I put a motorcraft 2100 carburetor from a mustang 5.0L on my jeep's 4.2L with a tb spacer that i drilled holes in to use as an adapter...Much cheaper than going with a webber, gets rid of all those nasty vaccum lines and still packs a punch...

So I'm finally piecing together my 4.6L stroker, and thus far it's been a nightmare. I had the pistons in the block when a machinist told me that the hypereutectic style i was using required a top ring gap coefficient of .0065-.008, giving me roughly a .030 gap on the top ring. So I pulled out...

I must say, driving early in the morning on your commute with no top or doors when there is frost on the road and you can see your breath is an experience, and up to the mountians in a blizzard with no top or doors...quite and experience. The winter is more exciting, but I must admit, crusing...

So I'm looking to get some new tires to replace the bald all terrains on my Nissan pickup now that the rains are here, which is now my daily driver since the Jeep is still in the OR. My biggest concern is traction in snowy/icy/rainy weather, since I head up to the mountains almost every weekend...
