    Bad Shimmy

    I will be rotating the tire this evening. We checked the track bar just as you mentioned and also with a crow bar between the bar and axle housing. No significant movement. Since this is a new development I have to think that my geometry is correct. I have been considering switching my...

    Bad Shimmy

Since the shimmy started I replaced the steering shaft(all the u-joints were shot), had it on a lift and all tie rod ends, knuckle, trac bar, and steering damper appear good according to the guy at the tire...

    steering shaft u-joints

    1979 c j5 Balancing the wheels and replacing the steering damper fixed the wobble. The damage to the Shaft is a result of the wobble. I checked everything out myself and the tire shop checked it again. My right lower control arm is very slightly worn but they didn't think would cause the...

    2.5L question

    The 97 TJ with 2.5 does have a CPS. I got one at Carquest for about $50. I have an old one that should still be good as it didn't fix my problem when I replaced it. Make offer.

    Trouble codes

    Carstuckgirls. LOL I am in Arkansas and I gurantee you that the cops around here are way to lazy to ever worry about a cat. I may start looking for a header and just go new on back leaving the cat out. Can I expect much HP gain from doing this?

    Trouble codes

    Sorry....I have to brag.... I replaced the CPS and it didn't help at all. I then replaced the Pre-cat o2 sensor and that appears to have fixed it. I still feel that I am a bit under power and wonder if my Cat isn't clogged. I have a muffler guy who will help me to get rid of the cat but what...

    engine swap

    RE: DANA 30 TEAR DOWN If I have to change all that then I won't bother. My thought was to look around the junkyards and find a 4.0 then do a rebuild and hop-up on it then when it was ready to go, do the install. If I have to change that much then I agree that it wouldn't be worth the hassle...

    I have a 97 TJ with 2.4. I just had this problem last night for the second time. On a long drive (4-6 hours) towards the end of the trip the motor starts losing power and sputters and cuts out at anything between an idle and full throttle. I get a check engine loght and codes for the O2...
