    MPG change with lift

    oooo, I want a guzzler sticker. Where can I buy one online? I don't recall the 2.5in lift I did making a difference, but the bigger tyres and roof rack certainly did.

    My CRD has got the runs!

    Hi Bill, I'm also in South Africa. I've use RockAuto.com many times for parts. They ship to SA. Check if they have what you are looking for. Your other option is to get a forwarding mailbox like MyUS.com and ship your parts from any supplier there and the good guys a MyUS will DHL it to your...

    KJ 8.25in differential questions

    Hi all, I see it's been almost a year. After looking almost everywhere I could not find a KJ with an open carrier in my part off the world. Looks like all of them were imported with the Trac-Loc. So, on to option 2. I finally bought a KK rear end. They are available everywhere. It came out...

    KJ 8.25in differential questions

    Reviving my old thread. Does anyone know the wall thickness of the diff carrier? The internals. This is on a 2005 3.7 V6. As stated in the opening post, the locker does not fit the current carrier. The current spider gear is about 7.5cm (if I remember correctly) and the new locker gear is...

    KJ 8.25in differential questions

    Thanks for the reply. Getting a correct KJ diff would be first price, but seems to be a problem. I was actually just going to replace the "basket" or carrier and plan to bolt the current ring gear to it. I was also thinking about the pre-load on the pinion, so the plan is to leave it in place...

    KJ 8.25in differential questions

    Hi all, So after some 4 wheeling in the Jeep it was clear to be that the limited slip was urerly useless. This led me to a wild search for a rear locker. Keeping budget, import duties and shipping in mind, I landed on a Powertrax No Slip locker. A lunch box locker. And this is where my...

    New guy - from South Africa

    Hi all, I'm all the way over in SA, on the other side of the world. Bit new to Jeeps, but not 4 wheeling. I have a 2005 KJ for about a year now. First time out was not good, because the old Jeep was a bit low. That was quickly remedied with a 2.5in lift kit. I had to import, because these...
