    Kids went mudding, grand cherokee is SICK!!

    1041348 Clean everything out. Mud and water act like a mild abrassive on just about everything. I would check the diffs, transferr case, and you have already messed with the transmission. Make sure the trans filter was replaced. If there is water in the diff, you'll need to replace the...

    extended idle switch

    1041355 I have done about 45min of searching and did not come up with anything for a extended idle switch. Are you sure that is what it is called? What exactly are you looking for it to do?[addsig]

    93 XJ I6 hitting acceleration wall at 4000rpm

    1041415 This is a long shot, but did the muffler shop that did the flows chech to see what kinda shape your cat was in? One of the symptoms of a bad cat is loss of power. Just a suggestion. [addsig]

    3" lift thud!

    1041430 The Rusty's kit came with front springs, shocks, and AAL. I tightened them in the air, wheels off. It thumps on level ground. I don't know if I tightened anything too tightly or not. I did the rear last and it was on the tail end of a 99 degree, 8 hour day. I didn't finish until...

    Angled Shims?

    1041476 This guy has the equation to use to figure out what degree shim you'll need: http://www.dirtroad.com/articleb.htm I don't think droping the case about an inch will mess with things too much. I plan on doing that myself to compensate for the AAL I put in the rear leaf packs...

    Im thinking of getting a RE 4.5" lift kit. I have a few

    1041477 I'm not endorsing this guy, but he does offer some interesting alternatives. Have you looked at www.rustysoffroad.com Keep in mind that I do not plan on doing any serious rock crawling. [addsig]

    heater fan

    1041528 May be apples and oranges, but I had a similar problem with my GMC pickup. It ended up being the heater AC control. I would assume that the newer models use electronic controls. Just like the fact that my 93 sport doesn't have a speedo cable and my friends 88 does. Mine is all...

    Cutting out the fenders

    1042037 I would guess and say you could stick some 31's under it, but you may have issues when it comes to flexing. You could use 30's without any issues. Just me, but why not just drop the $150-210 for a 2" lift from Day star and go with some 30" mud or all terrains? If you plan on...

    getting ready to put on a 3" lift... need to know where

    1042143 I had stock leafs with 105K on them. I used the Rusty's 3" AAL's and mine seems to be okay. With just ordinary driving it has settled to right at about 3.25" higher than it was. Make sure you have at least a 6" C clamp for the install. By the way don't attach your spring clamps...

    Looking for input on exhaust systems.

    1042144 Check out the Flowmaster setup on www.Rustysoffroad.com I've read a lot of good stuff about this setup. Pretty cheap too.[addsig]

    Front bumpers and grill guards

    1042175 Check out these guys http://www.desertrat.com/tjm/tjm_index2.htm They have some pretty damn good setups, but they are a bit pricey. Basically you want a grill gaurd that is attached to the body as well as the front. The ones that are just attached to the bumber will do more...

    '99 RE 2"lift

    1042272 I did the Daystar 1 3/4" spacer front and 1" shakle on my wifes's 01. I left the front isolater on, so it's more like 2" in the front. I put 30x9.5 n hers and they fit, but that's about as large as I'd go on a 2" lift. The BFG long trails on hers are almost as tall as my 31's...

    How do I know for sure?

    1042307 The HO versions were on the EFI 4.0litre engines. The head was reworked for better flow and the exhuast header is also different. Besides the top half of the motor, the blocks are all basically the same. If there isn't a badge on it that states high output then it more than likely is...

    '99 RE 2"lift

    1042309 I personally would not run 31" with only a 2" lift. The 30x9.5 work fine. You may even be able to find a manufactuure that makes a 30x10.5 or 11 tire. I would shop around for that.[addsig]

    help me pick out a lift and where to buy it...

    1042310 Not to be a PITA, but have you looked at thr Rusty's 3" full leaf packs. I personally don't care for skyjacker at all. The lift is okay, but the ride is not that great.[addsig]

    help me pick out a lift and where to buy it...

    1042317 I have the 3" with AAL (add A Leaf). I plan on upgrading to the full leaf packs next year. the AAL has been fine so far, but then again I haven't had a chance to really do a lot of wheeling. I just like the idea of having the leaf packs. Also, a lot easier to install the packs...

    How do I know for sure?

    1042318 You could run your vin with the dealer or have them check the tag for the HO code. Or find the id number on the head and have that compared to the HO. The dealer should be able to give you the code to compare to your vehicle id tag.[addsig]

    '88 cherokee rear axle seal replacement

    1042319 Do you know if you have the Dana35C or chry8.25 rear. If the D35C, you'll have to open the Differential cover and remove the C clip that holds the axle in place.[addsig]

    help me pick out a lift and where to buy it...

    1042331 I know the Rusty's set up is complete, I don't know about the others. From what I've heard, seen, read, the Rubicon Express is the best, followed by Old Man Emu, then everything gets kinda fuzy. I have heard not to go with Pro Comp. VERY stiff ride. I chose Rusty's because of...
