I wonder if I'd have to trim my the slip yoke on my rear DS when I do my swap. Yeah, I still haven't done that yet. I think I've had the case for almost a month now... Anyway, my rear arms are longer than stock, pushing my axle farther back with the lift than stock arms would. My rear sits at about 4.25" of lift with the axle pretty much in the stock location. I'll try it before I use the JY shaft I got. Badbird, I'll buy ya a case of beer if you fly out here and do the swap for me. You seem to know everything about it. Lol. I guess if you do it, you learn though. I know a hell of a lot more now than I did when I got my ZJ because of all the work I've done on it.
Thats kinda what I was thinking...that having adjustable arms in the rear might let me get away with not cutting anything. Well, I suppose I will find out if I ever get to actually acquiring said t-case.
Changed the oil today, and had the coolant and trans flushed. Tune up will have to wait till tomorrow though.
Also came up with a few cheap/free things to do soon :
Replace the AC condenser(have spare, needs to be installed)
Black out the gold "Grand Cherokee/Limited" letters and badge
Ordered pinion yoke for front diff, will be able to throw on the front drive shaft as soon as it gets here...hopefully the VC isnt quite toasted yet, we'll see.
Gonna grab some sea foam to run through...gonna smoke the neighbors out tomorrow afternoon, lol.(Speaking of which, besides the gas tank, where does anybody recommend using the sea foam, I know there are other systems or places in the vehicle it can benefit, just never used it before)
Gonna buy a hook for the winch cable here, probably today or tomorrow.
Oh, and I have a buddy thats gonna come over and square me away with getting the CB up an running. We have a camping trip planned towards the end of the month that I would like to get most of this done by: at least have working 4wd, the CB alive and kicking, and a hook for the winch in case I actually need it.
Think thats it for today.
Almost forgot...ordered a machette and a couple stickers from
