    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Pricing for new gears

    Had that thought but I bet the logistics probably rule it out. I'm in PA.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Pricing for new gears

    I've got 4. 10's and want to go to 3. 54... . LOL. I was told easiest way was to get a different rear axle assembly with the higher gearing and swap it, then swap the gears in the front axle.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Axle u-joints

    Ran Spicer non grease-able u joints in my rock crawler that was also street driven. 60 was built by Solid Axle Industries , 35 spline shafts, arb, drive flanges etc. I ran up to 37's in this jeep that saw amateur and professional rock crawling comps. I put probably 40K + miles on that jeep, both...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) # 8 fuel plate ?

    No I haven't towed with it yet. But the most I tow at this point is a 6x12 trailer with a Polaris Razor 800 on it. If I find EGT's get to high under load I will just slide the plate back toward the firewall some. I had ordered the # 8 plate from TST, when you get their kit it includes a boost...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) # 8 fuel plate ?

    So I found my truck to be sluggish on the bottom and and lacking of power on the top end. I decided to compare the #8 plate to a home-ground #10 I had. The result was I ground the #8 to a #100 plate, now I've got both low end power and top end. I moved the plate all the way forward toward the...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) # 8 fuel plate ?

    What will be the performance of this grind. Low end torque, more power on the top side of rpms, can someone give me an idea of how this profile works ?

    1997 12 valve, Stage 2 ATS trans, 4" exhaust, Pusher Intake, 4. 10's, 285/75/16's. Daily driver, most of the time empty. When i tow it will mostly be a 6x12 trailer with a Polaris Rzr 800 on it. Looking at upgrading the turbo, want to do a #6 plate, 40+ sticks, 3k gov. spring, and the turbo ...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Im confused...star wheel vrs smoke screw

    Ahmmm, yes. But I did a ATS Trans, fuel plate, 4" exhaust, etc, all at the same time. Just added the Pusher intake which woke it up from go to the top end and helped with slightly mpg. This is a former California truck so the intake was really restricted by the EGR area of the intake. Jury...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Im confused...star wheel vrs smoke screw

    Truck was tuned by a shop I had putting in a ATS Stage 2 trans, fuel plate was ground to a #10 profile and moved forward , I have a 4" exhaust. EGT never goes over 1050 degrees at this point. I'm trying to get the best mpg with usable power. The tuner said he did the above mods but didn't touch...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 1997 Intake manifold for hydroboost truck

    The stock intake necks down to about a one inch opening by where the egr attaches. Putting on the Pusher opens the opening to 3" right on thru. I had to buy one bolt because I had previously had the egr removed and had a block off plate in its place, I belive the bolt I bought was 8mm x 80mm. By...
