This page is BIG help. Thanks for taking the time to post it.

Need to put in a new Pinion Seal on my 99 TJ, (Dana 35), and the Tech. manual says to check bearing preload before removing pinion nut. Looks like if I just install a new crush collar instead of trying to re-use the old one, what difference would this make? Has anyone else done this? I know...

Thanks everyone. Much appreciated!

Iwould like to install one of those new exhaust manifolds for 4.0 ltrs. that have the expansion joints in them that will help to alleviate the cracking problem. I have been putting up with a cracked manifold for some time. How difficult of a job is this? Looks as if though you need to remove...

I know, I know.....Who uses AC in this "topless" time of year? Well, every now and then I must put up the top and turn on the AC for, you know, the other half? Problem is, my drain is apparently stopped up, probably from not using it much. The floor gets all wet and smells musty. I don`t want...

Okay, I`m sure that I`m not the only Jeep owner that needs new Roll bar pads and covers. Mine are totally faded out and look like crap. I simply cannot afford to drop 134.95 from Bestop for friggin` padding. Is there another source that I can find these for my TJ WITH a sound bar? It would seem...

I know that there are tons of guys out there who have had these things on and off. The pinion seal on my 99 TJ, (Dana 35), is leaking. BEFORE I get under there with all my tools and stuff this weekend, what size is the nut on there? In case I don`t have a socket that size, I will get one before...

Okay, a while back I read some posts about NOT putting GL-5 gear oil in a TJ manual Trans. because of premature wear of the brass synchros. I went to get some GM Synchromesh because I read here somewhere that either it or Redline was a good alternative. The oil that I have after purchase is in...

1045225 The width of the canyon rims on my 99 TJ are 8 in. Hope that helps! [addsig]

1045347 I Like It!!! They gonna market these? [addsig]

1059854 I also get the "No Bus" everytime that I hit a bump very hard or something. It is getting worse so I am like Bounty Hunter, I guess I need to take it all apart and clean everything. Just waiting for a litle nicer weather. Hope you figure it all out. :-D [addsig]

1041400 Thanks for the help on the location of the plugs. Got the fluid changed today and all went fine. A bit of advice for anyone else getting ready to do this, I couldn`t find a pump in my area to change the gear oil in the trans., so what I did was take a piece of vaccum hose and put...

1041951 Don`t let it bother you too much. My 93 also had a BAD leak around the passenger door and windsheild frame. Sometimes there could be an inch or more water in the floor. Just pull the drain plugs! Thats why it great to be a jeep owner. My 99 also leaks sometimes when it rains real...

1046905 Every once in a while the gauges in my TJ will do this same thing. But also,the check engine light will come on and so will the air bag light. All I do when this happens is just bang on the dash a couple times and they all start working. So, I am assuming that there must be a loose...

1048570 My condolences go out to you man! I once had a 93 that I truly loved, then I got the urge to by a truck. Now I have another Jeep, but it is nothing like the YJ that I had. Good luck in your pursuit to find it or another! [addsig]

1048319 Just had to get my two cents here guys, but Mobil-1 makes a really good synthetic gear oil that I use in the Trans. in my 99. It sure makes the thing a LOT smoother, especially on those cold mornings. It seems that the synthetic oils don`t thicken up as much as the conventioal ones...

1048521 Thats a question we would all like to know! I have a good luck with the BFG`s, but around here more people seem to prefer Pro-Comp or EL-Dorado. Probably the El-Dorado for the price. THe main thing is how well the tire wears on pavement, IF you use them much for that. [addsig]

1051202 Hey Rayovac, just wondering where you got your research info. and what you found out about that Mobil-1? I`ve got a Trans. full of it so let me know please? [addsig]

1051353 Well I can`t argue with that kind of Info. That`s what makes this site so great. There is always someone with a little more information than you. I guess that as soon as it warms up a little, I will be changing some fluids! Thanks a bunch for your replies guy`s. [addsig]

1042053 Are you talking about the wiring, brake lines, and accessories locations? Or do you actually mean the WHOLE firewall? What you could do is just take a look at some other peoples rigs and maybe bring along your instant camera if all you need to do is assemble everything back...
