    Driveshaft u-joint replacement

    I just replaced the u-joints in front and rear drive shafts. The front was straight forward, I used Precicion u-joints, 235 at the front diff, 2 x 331a's at the cv joint. Besides being a pain to get the old joints out everything went back together well and no modifications were required. Now the...

    Automotive Diagnostic System

    I have been going through this issue with the AutoTap I use. Dodge switched the computer bus to a CAN bus so I can only read the emission codes, none of the computer manufacturer specific codes. Hope to have updated software soon, the new interface will connect and read the bus, just need the...

    Pinion Seal Change procedure?

    The statement is correct but... Jeepers have this issue all the time, the axles are smaller, Dana 30's thru Dana 60's but the crush sleeves are a pain. We have had good success by installing a new pinion seal and then torquing the pinion nut to 165 ft-lbs. The crush sleeve on a Dana 30...

    Will a bone stock motor produce more than 30 psi of boost?

    I have seen 32 psi on the new IssPro gage. The 0-60 gage is easy to read and works great.

    New Isspro gages and Windshield mount

    Thank you for the information and the offer to help. I was not sure about extending the gauge wiring. I am going to trim the windshield mount so it is flush with the headliner and I may move the amp boxes at that time. I thought I could probably not use the "gauge keepers" but I am a bit...

    New Isspro gages and Windshield mount

    I'll take some pictures and figure out how to post them. I also have been working with the MassDiesel cooler line. I used it last weekend towing my Jeep to an event and was not satisfied that the Isspro sender has adequate oil contact. When I took it apart the sender is only touching oil at the...

    Fording Depth

    I did a seach and the information is a bit light. Should I be concerned that the ECM is located on the side and at the bottom of the engine. The axle, transmission, and crankcase vents are easy to fix. The ECM is what I am concerned about. Can I ford 2 or 3 feet of water? Steve

    New Isspro gages and Windshield mount

    I chased down the lighting issue. There are two orange w/ brn strip wires at the light switch. I initailly thought it made no difference which one you use. I was wrong. One of the wires from pin 5 is also in the dome light circuit. The orange w/ brn stripe at pin two is the one to attach the...

    New Isspro gages and Windshield mount

    I ordered the new style Isspro gages and a windshield mount from Geno's. Overall I am impressed with the quality of the gages and Geno's provides great service. The install was a bit more than I bargained for. The gages are so deep that they do not fit in the wndshield mount without the...

    ? on using a 9 1/4 rear axle carrier in front axle.

    Torque steer is usually caused from the rear locker, since the inside tire on the rear is now the driving tire. Lockers are speed biasing and open diffs are torque biasing. I have no point to prove, only relaying my experience and others that run Jeeps and other vehicles both on road and off...

    ? on using a 9 1/4 rear axle carrier in front axle.

    This is not quite what we experience in the Jeeping world. If the Front axle is not engaged you will never notice the locker or limited slip in the front axle. There has to be torque or power applied to the pinion gear to get the limited slip or locker to engage. We have been running Detroits...

    Electric shift-on-fly transfer case

    Both t-cases "shift on the fly". The main difference is how the operator shifts them. Internally in the t-case the shift fork goes essentially through the same motion. I have had both and selected the manual for my truck because I got tired of messing with the electric disconnect on my Suburban...

    3'rd gen front axle diconect

    I am new to the forum but bought my truck to tow my Jeep(s). The new unit hubs that are used, allowing the front end to turn all the time, do not have a noticable HP drag. This design has been used for 10+ years on Jeeps and none of the kits to install locking hubs affect fuel economy. The...
