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...

You're talking about the brass- gold piece in this image... I replaced those in my spindles...I cannot remember the name of that specific part, but yeah that's all the same for the ball-joints and those go in the lower spindle and fits 1984 to 2006 Jeep YJ, TJ Wrangler, Rubicon and Unlimited...

The balljoint taper/design on the C's/in the spindle is the exact same from 84-06 XJ, YJ, TJ share those. The unit bearing is different as I mentioned above, 87,88,89 are the same, 90-95 changed. The caliper, I'll take your word for it, but it doesn't apply to my situation or needs as I have an...

Spindle is different across certain years. 87,88,89 are the same, 90-95 are different. How so? The hub/unit bearing.

I'm located in Western NC and looking for a Dana 30 for my 1987 YJ. The gear set and carrier do NOT matter, what matters is that it is a 1987,88 or 89 YJ Dana 30.

I'll get better photos, I didn't get the worst of it. Its not as bad as some I've seen... but its pretty bad.

What are you calling an "intermediate shaft" to me, that's the lower part of the steering shaft. I've already replaced mine with a Borgenson shaft and I'm getting the PSC BIG Bore PS kit which replaces the steering box, power steering pump & reservoir. So that shouldn't matter. I've got a...

I'm still removing stuff but here's a photo of passenger side looking towards the rear of the tub. Hoping to have it completely stripped out by tomorrow except for the roll bar, they can grind those last couple of bolts out holding it in... 2 on each side, one set into the floor and the other...

Thank you again. I'll continue the hunt for an 87-88 YJ Dana 30 front axle housing. My mad science destroyed my original housing, DOH! 😖 I've seen a few on marketplace locally, but they're not the year I'm wanting... but I may have to settle for if something doesn't turn up. I'm trying to stay...

Did all the YJ's from 87-95 come with the same exact high pinion Dana 30 or are there differences in the axle housings from year to year. I'm not inquiring about the gear sets or carriers offered, just trying to make sure the Dana 30 housing is the same from 87-95, I'm sure it is, but I'm double...

Thanks guys, are you guys using factory radiators or aftermarket aluminum 3 row?

How many gallons of Coolant (50/50 mix) from completely dry engine block, radiator, heater core. My guess is 4 gallons +/-

If I was doing that myself I'd probably still go the same route. You can brace the tub by welding in some DOM tubing above the floor in key areas, ...its extra work but would hold the tubs shape perfectly while you install the new floor. The fully welded floor is a HUGE piece, perhaps you could...

I'll get some as it goes off to the body shop after the first of the year so you guys can see its current state. Like I said, the floor won't be here until the end of the month and I have the waterfall section already.

So instead of replacing sections of the floor I just opt'd for the entire thing. The driver side front is bad enough to Flintstone it and the bolts for the seats had to be cut off because they were rusted into the floor, as are the sport bar bolts at the waterfall section where it meets the...

Yes, I did, he asked for experience from people with both engines. Being he has a 4.2L it would be cheaper and less headache to upgrade and freshen up that engine. Most people don’t even know you can build the 4.2L and go straight to the 4.0 for the stroker. The 87-90 4.2L is the most supported...
