Two years ago when I come to Virginia from Chicago, I used my 89 MJ to pull a Bronco II. Both weigh about the same, and both have a fairly short wheel base....
Kevin, FYI, there's an '86 MJ in one of the yards up here in Richmond that is already SOA in the rear. It's a D35 (yeah, I know...) with 3.73's in it that...
Pete- in the ATL they can probably "roll with" the dark tint. Most southern states let you go limo dark by law. I lived in FL for six years and you could...

Wow! That saves you alot of work, Kev. Grab the brake hose too. Although the D35 is not as beefy as the Ford 8's and isn't a 44, its still a good rear end. I...
We are looking at a GW, that has the 5.9L It is either a TBI, or a carb.(It was dark I couldn't really tell) It had nice power, and certainly had the tow...
It's a carb unless it got an aftermarket TBI conversion. The 3/4 ton Ford axles I'm thinking of using are a HP Dana 44 front and a LP Dana 60 rear. I'd...
Scott; Finally found the cause(s) of the unwanted vibes. Put in a new steering gear box and had it aligned, helped a lot and got rid of the play I had. But I...
Having two lifted Jeeps, I've dealt with my share of DW's and this recent onslaught was easy to diagnose. Typically it was my frame-end trackbar bracket bolts...
I was lubing the chassis when I found my broken end-link. to find a replacement, I went to the typical stores, Advance Auto/DAP, Pep Boys. they went for about...
If you are using I95, having lived in CT my whole life and being stationed in Norfolk, VA, I can tell ya true that the road is straight and flat and you should...
Lets hope its still there!!! I'm gonna grab everything off the front end including the axle while I'm at it to make sure the gear ratio is the same as the...
Hi folks! Thinking seriously about hunting down an MJ 4x4. I'm a long time VW watercooler, mostly diesels, but have become bored with them, as of late. I'm...
Hello Vee Dubb here are some answers to your questions hope this helps. 1. most everything from the cab forward on an MJ is the same as an XJ up till 96 I...
Kevin, Sent you another em with directions. If you show up early, I can meet you there before I take off for PA. You're not excited or anything, are you ??...
Hey Vee Dubb, I've converted my 2WD MJ to 4WD...it's a pretty straight-forward deal. XJ and MJ parts are wholly interchangeable, and yes, I'll agree that...
I want to gut all the flexible vacuum lines on my truck and replace them with new ones. I can buy a ton of hose on eBay, but I don't know what diameter to...
If you really want a Scrambler, and have the money to blow, go to AEV Conversions http://www.aev-conversions.com/ and look at their Brute!!! Otherwise, get an...
Ok, does anyone ELSE find it ironic, that within a weeks time *2* VW watercooled nuts come on here looking for info on MJs??? LOL Welcome Vee Dub...I am sure...

Seeing that my yahoo id is an apt indicator of other non-Jeep obsessions, I have to add my 2 cents! I fell in love with Guinness from the first liter I had....
Feels good to be back, and now I am just catching up on all of the posts. Bunch of new members I see, thats cool. While I was in the UP of michigan, I did some...
