    Will this spare tire set up destroy my tailgate/tub?

    As long as you have the snubbers setup properly it will last. It's the lack of snubbers that will destroy your tailgate, regardless of tire size (though the bigger the tire the faster it will be destroyed).

    4L60E transmission torque converter

    For a torque converter, since you're not looking for high performance and plan to use your Jeep mostly as a pavement cruiser and beach vehicle, a torque converter with a stall speed in the range of 1800-2400 RPM should suit you well. This range provides a good balance for everyday driving while...

    Exhaust pop noise

    This sort of noise can often be attributed to unburnt fuel igniting in the exhaust system, which is a scenario that can occur if the air-fuel mixture is too rich. A few things to consider: 1. OBD Code 17: This code indicates a problem with the speed sensor, which generally affects shift points...

    YJ start / run issue

    I know this sounds nuts, but I had a 1999 XJ a decade or so ago that the HVAC would not work. I tried everything you could think of and replaced every single part you could. Even then, nothing worked. After months of troubleshooting I finally decided to dig into the wiring harness. After weeks...

    YJ start / run issue

    Welcome to the forum! Since you’re getting multiple sensor codes and the TPS is showing inconsistent readings, it might be worth focusing on the wiring and connectors next. Here are a few steps you could consider: 1. **Check Ground Connections**: A poor ground can cause erratic sensor...

    Would you pay almost 40k for this YJ?

    What years will my 2.5 engine fit in?

    Please read what you just wrote. The question you're asking is unclear. Are you asking about an LS swap or are you asking about something to do with your 2.5 engine? Again, if you read it it's very, very confusing what you're asking.

    Big Block in 89 YJ

    @NovakConversions will likely have more details on this I'd bet.

    Big Block in 89 YJ

    Yeah, hard to beat free. I'm pretty certain it will fit, it's just going to be a very tight fit.

    Big Block in 89 YJ

    I suspect it will fit but you'll need hugger headers. If it was me I'd put a 350 in there with a Holley Sniper EFI setup.

    Holley Sniper EFI

    I used it on my small block 350 in my 69 Camaro and it worked great. This was a long time ago but what I do remember is that it was easy to setup and a really made a big difference in terms of drivability. The other great thing was that all the finickyness that comes with owning a carburetor was...

    90 2.5 trouble going highway speeds

    Welcome to the 4-cylinder. Mine was so scary I avoided taking it on the highway. After re-gearing it was a bit bitter, but still it struggled like hell to get past 60 mph.

    What's with the rubber duck thing?

    It's some stupid trend started by JK and JL owners. Started by a woman if I recall (because no man would ever start a trend like this :LOL:).
