    XJ t-case question

    So, I'm trying to hunt down a strange noise in my friend's little sister's '95 XJ. It has a 3" lift and is rarely wheeled. I noticed a lot of ATF on the t-case and it is incredibly low. I'm not super familiar with XJ's so here are a few questions: On the rear slip yoke seal, is the rubber...

    I thought that you guys would be interested to know that this thread made the SUWA newsletter. My boss has a copy of their summer 2005 newsletter and I was thumbing through it and I read the following: "More than 100 business owners endorsed the letter that appeared in a full page ad in the...

    NP231 question

    Hey all, just a quick quesiton that I should know but can't remember. Does the chain in the NP231 t-case spin when in 2wd? It seems like it would have to to allow you to shift into 4-hi while still moving, but I can't remember from last time I had it apart. Also, what are some common...

    SUWA's Nov. 11th Newsletter

    I'm wondering if anyone has details on what proposals they are opposing in a few areas. They talk about upper Desolation Canyon (below sand wash). Is there any current proposal to allow motorized travel or drilling in this area. It seems unimaginable that the BLM would even entertain this...

    YJ hardtop modification

    hey all, now that I have my hardtop back on my YJ it is driving crazy. All of the sheet-metal screws along the windshield just rattle themselves out so that any time I hit a bump the whole thing shakes around. I'm tired putting the screws in every couple of days and have them randomly fall...

    illegal improvements made to routes in Snake Creek

    Update: we found out what happened. Some guy bought a section of land in the upper canyon and seems to be extremely confused as to where his land and authority end. He put the gate up and locked it even tough the gate was about 2 miles from his property and on public land. He says that the...

    illegal improvements made to routes in Snake Creek

    iceaxe, I think we are both talking about the same part of the canyon. The guy I was riding the trail with spoke to the director of the State Park and they had no part or knowledge of the barricades being destroyed, or the signs being put up. In fact he said that they were probably going to...

    illegal improvements made to routes in Snake Creek

    I went for a drive into Snake Creek Canyon near Midway on Sunday. In the upper end of the canyon someone had posted the public road with no trespassing signs and the old gate was dragged across the road. The road is public, and the land is public (Wasatch Mtn. State Park). This was not all...

    Cache County Road Debate

    birch creek I hiked several miles up Birch Creek canyon a few months ago and the forest service road was marked as being closed to motorized travel. The gate at the beginning of the private property was locked as was the gate into the forest service land. There were several big "no...
