split axle wont last. they are very weak. Welding it wont be worth it. Just get a one piece axle and install a lunch box locker like powertrac or detroit ez locker. They dont lock until the axle is pushed by the driveshaft. Had one in the front of my tj and drove it on the street all the time...

Yeah the green truck is mine now. I got it from a buddy in mcallen. As far as the lift, You can do the install. Just take you time and follow the directions. They are step by step. No special tools needed.

I installed 4.56 gears in my tj with out changing carriers. They might have a set of thick gears that will work. When you order your gears just ask them about to carrier. They should be able to let you know for sure.

99 tj - my first jeep was a 99 tj. Bought it new in 99. My first new vehicle ever. Over 4 years I lifted it 4", locked it front and rear, 4.56 gears, exhaust, intake, and chipped the 2.5L, added a winch, and a 1800 watt sound system. Sold it because of too many memories with the ex. Wife didnt...

Basiclly some brands offer different features for different prices. If you shop around on the internet you can find some deals. They are always putting these on sale. Things to look for would be, if the kit comes with shocks and what kind of shocks, brake lines or relocator brackets, etc. You...

Speedometer Gear Computation

Traction devices are lockers or limited slips. They put power to both wheels instead of the one with the least amount of traction (open diff). For the spline count the more the better. The splines are the teeth on the end of the axle that goes into the carrier (traction device). The more splines...

Look at your axle. The drive shaft should be above the centerline of the axle (high pinion) or below the center line of your axle (low pinion). The high pinion gears have a reverse rotation and the low pinion have a standard rotation. They are two different gears sets.

If you look under your jeep you will see where the stock arms meet the frame. The long arms meet the frame at about the same point the skidplate starts and finishes. Long arms are alot better on and offroad. You will have a smoother ride and more flex. It will get rid of the lifting motion when...

Welcome. You should have some good wheelin up there.

Welcome to the dark side. As far as your 2.5.... dont worry. I had a 2.5 that kicked but offroad. No race car on the street but jeeps are not designed to go fast. You will probably do more dangerous things in a jeep then you would do on a bike. Nice jeep.

PUT STACKS! :purple: Most of the 258 sound good with a dual outlet header and mufflers. The muffler will depend on your opinion on the sound. Most aftermarket mufflers dont have a big difference in horsepower or torque. Dual 2 1/4" exhaust will work great for the balance between power and...

check all of the clamps to see if they are loss. Then check your cat converter or muffler. Some time something inside breaks loose and rattles.

I like your rack

I installed the 32 spline output after that. Then traded for my current project. It was fun though.

That was a basic bolt on lift. It used the stock arms which limited the flex alot. If you change out the arms it will flex more. The long arm kits are great, but expensive. You can buy the longarms by them self. I removed the rear sway bar and added disconnects on the front. It was a great daily...

Look into upgrading the 258 while you have it open. The more popular upgrade would be 4.0 head swap. Give you good horsepower increase with minimal work. There are alot of write up on that swap on the net.

Just be easy on the dana 30 so you dont break it. They dont like tires over 33". Consider up graded axles in the future.

You are going to have to fab up a new mount. The frame on a 97 is wider than a 84. Take the old mount and the new mount and piece then together.
