  1. Engines & Drivetrain
    So i have a 97 TJ with manual trans. When I bought it, it had a 4 inch lift with 33s and the stock gear ratio, which is 3.07. Driving with the 3.07s makes it feel like I’m starting off in second gear all the time and barely any power in 5th. I have done some research on regearing and most people...
  2. YJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I was hearing some slapping coming from under the seats in my jeep and i believe it was the transfer case drive chain that had stretched out and was hitting the side of the transfer case when i accelerated after i have shifted gears. I took it to a mechanic and they said pretty much the same...

  6. Jeep CJ Forum
    Hello all, I do not have a jeep, but it is my dream vehicle and someday I would hope to get one. Right now, I am just doing my research in finding the best route to take. The Jeep I would prefer is a CJ-7 with fuel injection, as I have heard that carburetors are quite a bit of work, and I am not...
  7. XJ Cherokee Technical Forum
    I have a 96 Cherokee Sport, 5 speed 4 wheel drive 2 door with the 4.0 straight 6 with 205,000 miles, and lately its been acting like an injector was stuck open. When it warms up it would have a really rough idle and alot of black smoke was comming out of the tail pipe. but the fuel pressure was...
  8. Engines & Drivetrain
    I've found a few post of people who have attempted a manual tranny swap. I saw that one guy dropped in a 5 Speed NV3500 Dakota transmission. I was wonder if a 6 speed tranny from a Dodge Ram with the 4.7 V8 would fit in my WJ with the 4.7 V8 or should I stick with 5 speed from the Dakota...
  9. Jeep CJ Forum
    Well I figured since I am doing a pretty radical re-build to the CJ I would post it up on here, and let you guys see whats going on.

    Hi there, I am in the market for a new car in the next couple of month. We just moved from Florida to Colorado and since we will be spending some time in the mountains skiing and stuff, we though about an AWD car. I was looking at the Subaru Outback, but man this thing is a space ship. Way to...

  13. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I have an 02 TJ 4.0L 5 speed Sport. I have a 4" suspension lift, running 31" tires, and stock gear ratios (3.73). I was just wondering if I need to regear for the tires? If it matters at all, when these tires are gone, I would like some 33" tires in the same width (10.50). Currently, I get...

    Lately my tranny has been hard to get into gear so i assumed that the clutch is going out. I took it down to a car wash and when i drove it out of the car wash it shifted like a dream. I keep driving it and 2 days later it has stated acting up again. Could i have gotten mud or a rock or...

  18. Jeep MK Compass & Patriot Forum
    If you have a 4wd Patriot with the 5 speed what kinda gas mileage are you getting? I am not a fan of the CVT but like the Patriot other than that. I am not sure how much more money I want to put in my ZJ.

  20. Jeep MK Compass & Patriot Forum
    The 07 owners book says no flat towing a compass with a manual transmission, the 09 says you can flat tow a manual transmission. I talked to a couple of dealers, who did not know if there was a difference in the drive train between the 07 and 09. they said they can not contact Jeep engineering...
