    Muffler swap questions

    Toying with the idea of a muffler swap on the KJ. Not really a fan of how most V6's sound with aftermarket mufflers though, so I was curious if you guys were aware of any mufflers that were just a little louder than the factory mufflers? I know flowmaster tends to be quiet, but I'm thinking...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Did the HD cooling setup. Had the HD electric fan/shroud already, so I put on the fan clutch and nylon fan blade this afternoon. Started it up and wow, what a difference! I could feel it pushing air over the motor! Hopefully this will be a huge benefit while towing.

    HD Cooling setup

    Was reading the how-to that twobobs posted earlier and though my fan shroud looked like the one he installed as the HD shroud. Took a few pics for you guys to look at... http://i1155.photobucket.com/albums/p556/jesterjeepster/image.jpg...

    HD Cooling setup

    Bob, thanks for the info! I'd have done the research from a PC myself if I had Internet right now. Just got married and don't have Internet in the new apartment. Stuck doing everything from my phone right now. SUCKS.

    HD Cooling setup

    I know there are posts and threads about this here, but not finding them with my phone, so please point the way! My wife and I are wanting to finish out upgrading the KJ so that it has the factory tow package. It already has the hitch and 7-pin harness, but now we want to add the mechanical...

    To do it, or not to do it...?

    Planning to bed line my fenders today and considering replacing the intake tubing as well. But, is it worth spending the extra money just to get rid of some plastic and flex tubing? I know it's not going to make any difference in the performance, it's really just cosmetic. Just a wild idea, but...

    Detroit Truetrac

    Looking for a Truetrac for my KJ at a good price. The rear is a Chrysler 8.25 29 spline open diff. Might even settle for a powertrax no-slip if the price was right...

    4WD Conversion

    Still considering this route, but assuming I didn't go this route, my next option would be something extra in the rear end. Powertrax No-Slip or Detroit Tru-Trac, and why? Pros/Cons? Similarities/Differences?

    4WD Conversion

    What kind of cost would all the parts be (assuming they were bought used) to do the conversion?

    4WD Conversion

    Suppose one wanted to convert a 2WD 3.7 KJ into a 4WD KJ, what would it take? What parts would be necessary (and their cost)? What would the installation process be?

    Hypertech an Mods

    I'm sure this has been discussed elsewhere, but I didn't have time to go through the posts before work, so I'll ask my questions and see if you guys can answer them and/or provide links to past discussions that can. First question, does the hypertech for the KJ 3.7 work? By that I mean does...

    Trac-Loc "Trash-Lock" Question

    Sorry for the douche reply earlier, rough night. Does it require any special additives, servicing? Do tires last pretty much the same as before? How does it perform in snow, sand, mud, etc.? Would you recommend for someone who spends most of the time on the road?

    Trac-Loc "Trash-Lock" Question

    What is the general consensus on the powertrax no-slip? I've heard it functions like a locker but drives like a LSD. How are its road manners? Does it handle throttle through the corners well or will it just eat up the tires?

    Trac-Loc "Trash-Lock" Question

    Hey genius, read my posts. I'm looking at ADDING a LSD to my KJ, which currently has 91,000 miles. Meaning that if I added the Trac-Lok now the Trac-Lok would be worn out at 166,000-191,000 miles on the KJ.

    Trac-Loc "Trash-Lock" Question

    Hoosier, I've got 91,300 on the KJ now, so the LSD will be wearing out the same time the KJ will. Any other suggestions that fit a tigh budget?

    Trac-Loc "Trash-Lock" Question

    I understand that it's a LSD and not a locker, I was just curious if that was the only reason for the dislike or if there were function or integrity issues with it. I'm considering putting one in my 2WD KJ just for a little added peace of mind. Don't really want the poor road manners of a locker...

    Trac-Loc "Trash-Lock" Question

    Heard the factory LSD known as the Trac-Loc called the trash lock a lot around the forum but I never stopped to ask why. So, why does everyone call it the trash lock? What's so bad about it that makes it trash?

    Open Differential Confusion...?

    Yes, 2 different stories from two DIFFERENT situations. The first situation had identical results 2 times (I know, because I inspected the spins), the second situation did not produce the same results as the first situation, resulting in 2 different stories. Seeing as how the vehicle did not...
