Hey guys, I need a little bit of advice. I'm looking into starting a new club on campus dealing with 4x4 and offroad and here's what I've come up with so far. It would be easiest (and cheapest) to start the club as an offshoot of the existing motorsports club (whose main focus is racing) with a...

Alright guys, I'm stumped again, this time dealing with steering. First off, rods and ends are new, so that ain't it. Here's the problems: It gets stuck sometimes. I really have to crank on that wheel to get it unstuck and then it pops out of it and I jerk all over the road trying to regain...

Thought this was interesting. http://www.automotoportal.com/article/new-military-version-of-jeep-wrangler-revealed

I'm having valve cover clearance issues due to the increased isntalled height of my new springs. The face on the front of the 4.0 valve cover that slopes downward is interfering ever so slightly with that front most rocker arm from what I can tell. This is preventing the valve cover from seating...

Need one for my 4.0 head swap. Gimme a holler, thanks a lot guys. Have a good one.

As a few of you may already know (due to my MANY questions already) I'm doing a 4.0 head swap. I got 4.0 headers off of eBay and a 4.0 HO head casting no. 7120. Is the intake for the 1980 258 different thatn the others? I'm haveing a lot of trouble getting the thing to fit and it doesn't look...

I was looking around the RE website the other day, and noticed that the 2.5" lift kit for the CJ uses 2.5" YJ lift springs. I always thought that YJ springs were flatter than CJ springs, so how could the same spring provide 2.5 inches of lift for both the CJ and the YJ. If I'm not mistaken, I...

Just lemme know if you want them. Send me a PM. I'm in Portland, TX right now.

I got a new timing set from O'Reilly's just to be safe with all the other new and improved stuff I'm putting in. Good news is the cloyes kit I got (just stock kit, nothing high performance) looks to be much much much better built than the one I pulled off of the Jeep . . . BUT, the camshaft...

Does anybody know if one is supposed to use 4.2 or 4.0 rocker arms for the 4.0 head swap? My dog ran off with one of the 4.2 rocker arms and I think buried it, lol. Thanks a lot guys, have a good one.

The guys says he's got two kinds, some that look to be normal and some that "have extra threads on top for mounting something." Wasn't there some valve cover that mounted up using these studs and is that what he is talking about? Which bolts would I need . . . or is it half and half? I'm also...

Alright guys, again, I'm sorry about so many questions, but this is a huge undertaking for me. This will hopefully be the last thread on this topic. Per Bounty_Hunter's suggestion I went with a clifford cam and cam kit. I talked to Larry from clifford on the telephone and he told me that the...

I'm sorry guys, I know I've been asking a lot of questions lately, but I need the help. This is all relatively new territory for me. My question now is about exhaust cutouts. I have the opportunity to get an electric cutout for my diameter exhaust pipe for next to nothing and I was wondering if...

Could somebody please tell me what these things are and how necessary they are? On the right, one of the lines is a vacuum line and the other actually goes to the fuel filter . . . On the left, I believe all three are vacuum lines of some sort. Any help at all would be great guys. On a side...

I've just been looking on eBay for headers and I came with these two. They seem to be alright, which do y'all think I should go for? Or are both bad ideas. Thanks a lot guys, adios...

Hey guys, I'm fixing to do the 4.0 head swap. All the parts are coming in in the next week or two and I'm excited. A buddy of mine suggested that while I was at it, I might as well put a new cam in as well. This is something I hadn't thought of but it sounds like a good idea. Only thing is, I'm...

Hey guys, my 4-speed is starting to make funny noises, and I'm contemplating swapping in lower gears in the axles too, so I think it may be time for a 5-speed. I did a little research and heard a lot of good things about the NV4500. How easy are these things to find, what will it take to get it...

Hey guys, I attend an engineering school in indiana, and like all engineering schools, they require we take a certain amount of humanities classes. Nobody likes them but everybody takes them, mine this quarter is "Fundamentals of Public Speaking." Anyways, I'll be giving a persuasive speech at...

I was looking around a junkyard today and came across this older Camaro with a 4 barrel Edelbrock carb. From what I hear, Edelbrock has a reputation for good performance so I was wondering if this thing was swappable. The guy said 35 bucks as is. All the linkage worked fine and it was actually...
