    BIG Offroad 8" XJ leafs vs. custom Alcan leaf springs

    Yes the BO springs are built by Alcan. I had Alcans in the EB for a while, good springs. But for the price and flex I would go the way Herzog did if you must be that high. RE's are about 1/2 the price of BO's. The 3/4-1" blocks that MBryson and I run, don't effect wrap much and are...

    BIG Offroad 8" XJ leafs vs. custom Alcan leaf springs

    I would suggest the Rubicon express leafs with shackles and some body trimming. I looked into this a great deall a couple months ago. The 8" leafs have so much arch that they don't flex. I could fit 35's where I sit now...rubi leafs/shacles and a 1"block/shim. Your welcome to come take a look or...

    Need help diagnosing slow/no start. Wifes ZJ

    The fuel pump pressure valve could be leaking down, causing the relay to click until pressure comes back up. I know on XJ's the fuel pumps have valve that holds pressure in the line for the next start, this valvle often goes bad in an otherwise good pump. Causing it to have to turn over for a...

    coil overs

    The other advatage to Fox is a shorter overall length in the same stroke. Most people say fox is also the easiest to revalve yourself. I used them, haven't got to test them yet though.

    Any ideas for a flexy XJ lift?

    I would use either the RE or a custom long arm setup. I like the RE springs, I have not used their XJ long arm, but do run a custom long arm I built. (3 years ago or so) Works great. As for 35's kinda big for an XJ, I keep talking myself out of them. I am thinking 34 Truxxus. Marc B...

    Look what BlackSheep found today!!

    Bang it back up, put the floor jack under it and jack it back into position. Tack it GOOD, pull the arm out (no melty bushing), weld it up inside and out, then fab a plate that welds on as a skidplate for the bracket, but extend it up/wrap around the tube an inch or so past the bracket. Then do...

    If the trac bar is ok, check the ball joints, TRE, steering box to frame. Make sure it is toe'd in 1/8th". Check that wheel base is the same on each side.

    The pix of Project "Hero"

    (highjack) Mine? No pics yet, maybe this week end. I was hoping to go play, but didn't get the exhaust done, or a tow rig. It has been a WHILE. I had to fix/change the things that weren't what I wanted. I did not even touch it for almost a year!

    Alcan Springs

    Alcan makes All-pro's springs, I believe. I had some alcans in the Bronco, worked great, I was much happier with them than with my Nationals. Alcans flexxed well and did not sag. As for cost......$600 for Coilovers...NOT....Add the coils springs/hardware and link setup. $450 for leafs is a...

    Favorite RockCrawl ORG?

    I agree with B. Emphasis lately seems to be on insane climbs with a VERY high probability of carnage. I want to see some technical coarses that REQUIRE rockCRAWLING. It is starting to look like a Monster Truck exposition meets WWF.
