You ever see those signs that say, slower traffic keep right, minimum speed 45mph.... that's you and you're not alone... that's MOST CJ's and YJ's out there. These vehicles are not speed demons, curve hangers, they're slow crawlers and slow commuters...meant for cruising and crawling lite trails.

A new billet roller is leaps and bounds better than the flat tappets that came in these engines just by themselves with a variety of grinds, but of course you'd pair it with a slightly modified to balls out modified head to get the best results, OR a high compression build like a 258 with a...

The Newcomer build will be done soon, keep watching his YouTube channel, his 258 Series... he dyno'd a bone stock 258 that he found. My friend Brian, his 258 is next in the series, mine will be last but shortly behind his... the billet roller camshafts are what's taking so long...I'm not at...

Are you sure you put the flywheel bolts in correctly? its a common mistake.

These books are exactly what you need... you can find them in PDF format but nothing like actually having the books in your hands and at your ready. Select 87-88 in the drop down, its two giant factory manuals...

Get rid of the 4 squirrels and go with an I6 and your options broaden by A LOT!. However, its not cheap to do it right, you get what you pay for... these aren't SBC's.

You're absolutely right about the 2.5L, However, the 4.2 & 4.0L's can both take advantage of billet roller camshafts that'll have ya north of 300hp/tq , but I still say a regear is best.

I think Dirt Everyday or Muddy Beards may have done RCV's on a Dana 30, I can't remember... you'll just have to research it out as I wasn't interested in going that route. Yukon Gear...Chromoly shafts 30 spline, Grizzly locker, 456 or 488's, nodular iron cover, warranty.... the inner and outer...

Engine swap - What are you thinking? I6 258 or 242? , V8... LS , Ford...? Front axle - The D30 with all Yukon and Locker would be plenty, 456 or 488's Rear axle - Same upgrade Yukon, plus locker, I like the Mechanical Grizzly's Transfer case - SYE and upgrade kit from eBay... Lift - Anything...

Nice find man. YJ is the best IMO. What year model and engine did she come with or have in her? My engine is built by Newcomer Racing... waiting on the billet roller camshaft kit to come in, My friends 258 (276 CI) is being built now, the video will be up soon on NCR youtube channel as apart of...

Newcomer still has the engine, I signed on to wait for the roller camshafts and lifters he designed, he is taking pre-orders on his website and has told me the company making his cam and lifter kits say it'll be just another month until he gets his order, this is a little more than a year in the...

Great build thread and YJ story. I am about to be a grandfather in May, its a boy, I hope I live long enough to see him grow up and pass this YJ down. You've been all over your YJ, modded and returned to a more stock appearance. I appreciate your experience and time talking Jeep with me.

Suppose I'll add to the build threads here and create my own. If you're reading through my thread I hope you'll find something useful in it or get inspired to build your rig. I like to think my build is a little unique compared to other builds, you're going to see stuff that's been done and...

You can see the front kit on the hood of the Jeep, I've not opened it yet. I included my TNT truss, Wilwood master, adjustable proportion valve. i have their 10" braided brake lines too. Parts are stacked in front of the Jeep, under the Jeep, filled the inside of the Jeep and then stuck the...

Cool. No, There is no drilling or nothing for the front kit on a YJ...for the Big Brake kit I went with Wilwood. They have a BIG brake kit for the YJ front axle... You'll find it on Quadratec or other Jeep sites. I just ordered what I think is the rear BIG brake kit that converts the Dana 35 (I...
