    Report Field trip to Tom Woods

    "I half expected a dirty old garage or dark warehouse with Tom and maybe one other guys making a few drivelines a day." I recall the dumpy little auto shop that Tom started his driveline shop in, before he moved in, he polished it to a high sheen and packed it full of machines and parts...

    Report Field trip to Tom Woods

    I've had the luxury of spending more time than most in Tom's shop and it's always been that way, it's just how he's wired. He's a savvy business man, inventive engineer and a heck of a nice guy. He could teach seminars on customer service, too. I proud to call him my friend......[not sure that...

    New Guy From Draper Here

    Welcome. Being new to the off-road scene, it's good to start with a platform that allows for daily driving and weekend wheeling. The XJ (Cherokee) is a great platform for this. Relatively cheap to build and performs well offroad. Having owned a 94, an 89 and now a 2000 XJ, I'll suggest...

    Need TRE part #s!

    Left photo is what we need, only in TRE form, not a Draglink, like this Currie DL end. Slotted to allow movement but minimizes rolling. Center photo from my old XJ steering setup, made from DOM and solid stock, used some ES150 TRE's for an OTK setup that worked well. Similar to what Herzog...

    cool wall

    Yup, in Moab it's easy for someone to try a new route and have it get tracked up quickly by sheeple, which is why trails get closed. You did the right thing by staying on the designated trail..... and Thank You. For those who use this logic ......."well, there are tire tracks, so it must be...

    Dana 30 Caster Correction

    Kemp, I've rotated the knuckles on my XJ D30 to achieve the desired caster angle. A point of interest......the D30 inner knucle C's are not cast, so welding them to the tubes is not that complicated. Here's some links to my project...

    Need TRE part #s!

    Digger, take the ES2233L and rotate the Draglink TRE hole 90 degrees, so the TRE would be inserted from the top and bolted on the bottom, not front to back.......that's what Braden's searching for. As Carl mentioned there is a nylon/delrin type washer that you can install to prevent the DL...

    XJ rear suspension tech

    Good advise Bart, RE1463 3.5 " leaf and 1.5" shackle will work well. When I built my D44, I installed taller, longer spring perches so that my net lift would be 6".

    The Eyeballing Game

    3.80 parallelagram messes with me everytime, circles and right angles are a breeze........pretty consistant on the convergence too. Interesting how our perspectives on angles/shapes differ.

    Tie rod end spacers? This seems weird to me

    Lots of steering options for the modified XJ......... OTK T-style, HD Currie's Y-style, custom T or Y with Heims, WJ or Tera knuckles. I know the cool thing to do is just toss the stock steering in the trash and build new with DOM and heims........for those that want to retain TRE's, most...

    CO - Ouray, Silverton, Lake City, Telluride Experts - Part II

    Poughkeepsie is a must do, you should have clear trails by August. Yankee Boy is loaded with wildflowers, but as Greg said, a loop run. Red Mountain is fun to check out, Engineer has some great views with mining history too.
