    How do i "Lower" the rear end?

    Thanks. I don't see any additional isolators to remove. Tires balanced. I previously got the opportunity for the weight trick helping a friend with a load of cinder blocks and bags of concrete. Vibes reduced and I liked the stance better, rather than the rear way up in the air...

    How do i "Lower" the rear end?

    My KJ has an OME spring lift with Bilsteins and rides beautifully. But the rear is strangely about 1 1/2" higher than than the front. I suspect I'm getting some pinion-angle vibrations, due to the new rear drive shaft angle. I've added and maxed a JBA link (with little improvement) and using...

    Intermediate shaft question

    Thanks Tom, I'll need to discuss this with 4WP again. When I say "floppy" I'm referring to the hollow metal "can" or cover over the inboard/upper joint. It easily flops around and I even get about 1/4" lateral in/out movement. There is no "clicking" in a tight turn or torn boot to let in...

    Intermediate shaft question

    It's been almost 9 months since this was an issue for me, but now it's back. TOM MUDD what would be the symptoms of a CV axle being replaced with one that was too short? 4WP changed the passenger side and I still felt a "flutter" after a few months, so i tool it back to them showing them how...

    Rear t-case output shaft loose

    The parts were not very easy to get at the auto parts chains. The numbers listed for the Bearings and Seal were incorrect (The 206 bearing is too small !) After 2 returns, I decided on the dealer, since I couldn't find the Oil Slinger anywhere inside of 3 working-days for shipping. Here are...

    Rear t-case output shaft loose

    It's not the output bearing! I spent $150 on parts and the better part of day. Learned a lot, but still feel the slight vibes peak around 53mph under load. My wife can't feel what I'm talking about. I think she wants me to give up.... Nah!

    NP231J Transfer Case - Rework needed?

    I found a bit of play in my Transfer Case rear output shaft. Now I'm venturing into the internal guts of my KJs workings. Drained the Transfer case ( I used 30w synthetic last time) Pulled the rear shaft and boot Removed the Oil Slinger (PITA! Order a new one!) Chiseled out the seal (PITA...

    Rear t-case output shaft loose

    It may sound strange, but I hope it is the bearing. It's the one thing I have suspected, but not replaced after thousands of $ of suspected parts and systems elsewhere. I have asked this forum if it is possible that the Transfer case could be the issue, but no replies. I have moderate play in...

    On a Mission: 50mph rumble

    Hi Ahmed: I can't tell, but are you lifted? With the balance weight removed, You can see that the drive shaft looks too short and the Transfer case output shaft looks to long. That geometry is going to vibrate, even with a perfectly balanced shaft (I even tried the JBA Y-link extender to...

    Where are the motor mounts?

    A few extra notes about the Left Engine Mount replacement. I forgot to say the starter was removed (not too hard...be sure your battery is disconnected and be aware of the steel bracket that holds the harness in place). it is essential to remove the Oil Filter to access the front bolts (plus...

    Where are the motor mounts?

    Definitely! I did this laying on my back. Jacked up the engine under the oil pan to free the support bolt from the cradles. Too cramped underneath with the jack in the way, so I used a 2x6 between the pan and cross member to hold the engine up in place (perfect fit). Lifting it from above would...

    Where are the motor mounts?

    Engine mounts Easily replaced my trans mount the weekend before Christmas. But, the engine mounts took Sat, Sun and Mon before new years! Total PITA! I didn't work solid all three days, because you need to be in the right mood, and very tolerant of tight spaces. The passenger side is easier...
