    Suspension lift kit suggestions for a stock 93 YJ?

    If it were me, looking for what you want to achieve, I would at least checkout Metalcloak front and rear fenders. The claim by them is being able to fit 35’s on a un lifted YJ with their fender system. That would keep your stock suspension and a low center of gravity.

    What did you do in the garage / driveway today?

    I always have trouble welding overhead, so lifted the rear of the frame as much as I could. That was better but still set my shirt on fire and blistered my arm.

    What did you do in the garage / driveway today?

    My welder buddy is working out of town for the next several months so decided to weld the rear wheelbase extension bumper on myself. It’s not as pretty as I would like but then it never is. Shouldn’t fall off though.

    89 yj frame repair

    I had to replace the frame on my 89 it was so bad. But yesterday I spent the day welding on a rear bumper that is a Motobuilt YJ wheel base extension bumper. The rear shackles are relocated to the bumper and you use XJ springs and end up with the axle sitting back 6” farther than stock. So you...

    Carburator for Wrangler YJ 2.5 Liter. 4 cylinder

    Unless a previous owner has changed it, I believe what you have there is a throttle body injector unit.

    1991 4.0 manual running rough to wont start

    If it truly wasn’t over heating, why change the parts that you did? When it is running again install a mechanical water temp gauge, at least temporarily. The factory gauges are notorious for being problematic. That doesn’t mean that it can’t be made to work properly if it is faulty. But the...

    Lesson learned the hard way

    I hate the factory location of the fuel tank. It’s just begging to be destroyed on a rock.

    Tire PSI

    Jeez Macho that’s pretty scientific. I usually just added or subtracted air psi until it looked and felt right.

    Manifold Bolt Size

    8.8 is not the metric size it is the grade or class of hardness. As for the size, someone else will have to chime in on that.

    Soft Top Replacement

    I saw a top on a TJ the other day that had a hard plastic border about 3” wide that made a door frame for the full doors to fit into. No body was around so I don’t have any more info but it looked to work well.

    New axles

    Got the crates off the trailer and opened yesterday. It's amazing how much axle it takes to get a little Wrangler down the road. Overkill? Maybe. Probably

    New axles

    Received my new axles from ECGS yesterday. Worked all day the day before putting a new winch on my trailer because I had no idea how else to get them unloaded and on the trailer. Very glad I did that, don't think it would have been possible without it. Got the trailer in the garage and calling...

    1987 YJ changing the automatic transmission filter and fluid

    You also mix in old fluid from the torque converter unless you pull and drain that too. I have never heard of anyone going to that extreme.

    Better gearing for the 2.5?

    It should have 4.10s in it now. A cheaper and much easier approach would be to put on some taller tires. Changing the gears is going to be much more expensive, especially if you need to pay to have the work done. It is not a beginner project. Just my opinion.

    95 YJ Restoration

    Close inspection of frame and under body. These things are notorious for rust. That in my opinion is #1.
