    Pulled inectors.... Hard plastic lower o-ring?

    I'm sending a head for machining, and carefully pulled out the injectors. The o-rings stayed behind in the bores. Below the green o-ring was a smaller, harder plastic ring. I'm not seeing this part in the o-ring kits. Any idea where to get this ring? Or do i have to get whole new injectors?

    242J (Selec-Trac) swap for 6spd

    For those unfamiliar, this is about changing the Command-trac (part-time only) transfer case to the Selec-Trac which includes a '4wd full-time' mode. In a 6-speed KJ, the part-time transfer case is a 241J. My donor was an '03 Limited with the 45RFE I ended up using the tcase itself, the...

    Slip-yoke Eliminator? (SYE)

    Anyone have a recipe for a fixed flange or yoke on their KJ's 231 or 242? Just a basic hack-n-tap? All the kits I see are for the older/smaller 27spline outputs. I have some extra 3R and 1330/1350 double-cardan shaft stuff I want to put to use. I did see this flange... New Process...

    XJ wheels w/spacer... fit?

    Just a quick check to save me the trouble of a test-fit... if anybody knows. Will these 15x7s clear on a KJ with a 1.25" spacer? I have to take both sets of 16" wheels/tires (summers & winters) in at the same time for re-mounting on the opposite wheels. Would be nice to keep the Jeep...

    Ring/pinion pattern check

    First pattern check on used 3.73s. The somewhat opposite pattern drive vs. coast suggests I need more pinion shim. I have the original 0.026 pinion shim in there. Opinions? What are you guys doing to load the gears for a better pattern? I've seen suggestions about applying the brakes, but...

    Re-gearing: crush sleeve or solid spacer?

    Has anyone here eliminated their crush-sleeve when they re-geared? I picked up the Ratech 4114 solid spacer ('crush sleeve eliminator') for the 8.25". I'm not especially impressed with how loose it fits on the pinion shaft. I don't know if I want to use it. I'm trying to decide whether to...

    87 XJ axles - hpD30 & D44

    I found a '87 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer (L6, auto) that's going for cheap and/or parts. If I was going to harvest the axles and suspension for future Liberty mods, whats a decent price to pay? btw, whats a common XJ axle ratio with the D44? (can't find any tags)

    Ram 1500 wheels...

    I see all kinds of Ram 1500 wheels on CL and other local ads. They come in 16", 17", 20" and have deep backspacing, so I thought with a wheel spacer/adapter it might be a good choice. Anyone tried it?

    IFS diff swap idea....

    From the moment I saw JBA's steel diff replacement, I did some hard looking at some F250 twin-traction-beam scrap I have in the yard. It gave me an idea. What if I could recycle one of these chunks and build an ifs diff assembly like JBA does? The high pinion alone should correct the CV...

Secretly wanted something 'small' to play with, so this is perfect - I'll get to do the mods and borrow it from time to time ;) One of the first mods is...
