    D30 and D35 Gear swap to 4:10's On 97 TJ

    I am definately not an expert, but you don't need to change the x case ratio in order to change axle ratio's. They work independant of each other, you will need to change both front and rear ratio's in order to still use four wheel drive. Lockers by themselves do not come with gears but I know...

    Furious and need to vent (rant about idiot local vendors)

    that's too bad, I have had them screw around on a quoted time frame before also, I had them install gears in my 84 chevy and I talked to the owner and he told me the rear end was in pretty good shape and that he had it apart, I was in the neighborhood anyway and thought I'd stop in and see, as I...

    12 Valve or 24 Valve

    In my personal opinion the dodge, ford and chevy diesels all run very well and any one of them will make a fine tow rig. On which one to choose it depends and whats strengths and weakness you are looking for and which combination works best for you. I pull with a 97 stroker on 36's and it runs...

    offroad legality

    Hello people I plan on taking my samurai to the sand dunes on easter weekend and am wondering if street licensing is sufficient for this off highway use, I know a flag will be required and I can arrange for that, just wondering what else I might need? Thanks.

    zuk exhaust

    i think ill go 2 inch that seems to be sufficient i was just wondering cuz the collector in like 2.5 and that seems way to big for a small displacement 4 cylinder. Any idea on what brand or type of muffler to use?

    Herculiner good or bad?

    Cheap and holds up ok but don't use it if you want it to stay deep black, it goes chaulky after a while but i just roll a new coat on every couple of years and it looks good that way. Make sure to put plenty on at least three coats not just two like the instructions say, the thicker the better!

    sami rough running when it rains hard

    well im kind of embarassed to report what the problem was. I am running a weber carb with a couple of adapter plates that hook it to the intake man, and the bolts that hold the first plate tight to the intake came loose, thus a giant vacumm leak and shitty running. It just happened to be a...
