i finally got someone to shift gears for me while i look underneath to find my driveline clunk.

looks like my rear dshaft is loose...? it does about 1/4 turn when engaged and clunks
It is all the slop in the trans,t-case, and a little from the rear end. A lot of them do that. Take the rear drive shaft off and make sure the rear pinion flange isn't moving around at all. BTW, did you find any gears yet?

Is there a way to fix that? Also, trying to get my hands on a diagram for d35. So I can see what to look for.

Installed my lights finally! Turned out pretty good. :)
Looks good man, I turned my bracket inward to try and protect the lights from branches when I'm in the woods. Throw some paint on it and cut down that bolt and looking spiffy.

That light bar is sick!
Just looked up how much that lightbar costs....:eek:
I know Jeepers like to add all these extra lights to their rig, but I don't see the point.... they are totally worthless 99 percent of the time. You usually cannot drive on pavement with them on, and trying to night wheel with them doesn't do anything except blind everyone on the trails, so basically, the only time you can use them is for poser photos?

What is this amature hour!?!?! Thats possibly one of the dumbest things I've ever heard! Light is light! When I drive at night all the lights the better! I dont care if I have to turn them off for on coming trail traffic. Even camping, night snowboarding, shoot.... lighting up a stump so you can walk to it safly to drop a duce... I doesnt matter what you use them for. THEN the undeniable fact that they make peoples rides look bad ***... ok...im done. In short, that was a dumb comment

It's kinda mall crawling if you ask me. It's not like these guys desert race at night and need to see crazy far. It's just dick measuring IMO. :kiss: I still think they look cool as hell but pointless unless you NEED it.

(LOL)....... you just proved my point, 99 percent show, 1 percent function. A lot of States, there are laws about using those lights on pavement.

When there's a torrential downpour and the sky is black, I am very thankful for all 600w of lighting on my xj. It really cuts through well when the factory headlamp bulbs and cheap wiring would leave you in lack of adequate lighting.

But that still falls into the 1% area. Trust me I love light and they look bad ***. But at some point it becomes excessive.

Got my 8k winch and iceland bumper on finally ,everything hooked up including lights,just got some tweaking to do to get bumper a little higher so that it's right below headlight assembly but at least it's on
Let me know how that rough country winch works thinking about getting one.

I have never night raced in the desert so I have no experience with this, but I would think it would be one of the few legitimate uses for these lights.

i always tend to go wheelin at night.. so i got my roof lights... but i also NEED to see the whole road when im driving my eyes are bad at night...thats why my windshield is tinted so the on coming traffic's lights dont blind me

also why i have my HIDs so i dont have to use my highbeams 24/7
