Hi all, So I am rebuilding my 02 WJ 4.0. I bought new cam bearings, due to scoring them when pulling the cam. :frown2: My current understanding; The #1 bearing has a oil channel that appears to feed oil to the thrust plate. I learned older 4.0 had a thrust spring that pushed the cam back...

I've been battling a humming noise from the front end of my 98 5.2 ZJ for quite some time. I had an axle seal blow and the shop told me the humming noise I heard was probably due to low fluid in the differential. After a costly repair bill, I decided to do it myself. I finally got around to it...

Hi, I am new to the forums. I have been looking around for a few days and i can find plenty of threads on replacing the wheel bearings on a dana 30 with disk brakes, but i have a 73 cj5 with drums on it. Is there any difference in the way they come apart? If there is a thread that you all...

First off thank you everyone your help. I've only owned my jeep for a couple weeks and already I've used this forum many times. Thank you to all. So I purchased my 89 Wrangler 4.2 a couple of weeks ago. I test drove it for about 15 minutes and it had no abnormal noises, good oil pressure...

Hi everyone. After taking my jeep for some aggressive off roading, maintenance has been draining my bank account... So I will be replacing the starter and front bearings with a friend in the next month or so. The starter is caked with mud and makes a grinding noise sometimes at crank. The...

Stick shifters read this - throwout bearing issues??? This may blow your mind!!!!!!!! Howdy, Long time gleaner of advice from the forum. First time post! Just finished a clutch job on my 1998 TJ Sport 4.0 (just turned 170,000mi). Noticed lots of posts concerning transmission/clutch issues...

Hi all, my 5 speed has been giving me a little trouble lately. Every once in a while while driving the clutch pedal becomes stiff, it takes effort to get it down, and even when it is down it does not disengage. I can't shift gears when this happens and there is sometimes a whirring noise, not...

Hi all, been a long time since I've had a jeep to play with and I'm glad to be back. A little older, a little wiser (I hope), growing hair in strange places... (Waynes World 2 fans out there?) Okay, I'll get to it. Short story long, bought a 93 ZJ with a lot of problems (basically got ripped...

Hello, To start off, I have a 2000 Cherokee Sport with 4x4 part-time. I just replaced the U-joints, the driver side wheel bearing, and driver side ball joints. I'm having a very low rumble when I hit high 60-mid 70 mph range on the interstate. When I hit about 80 or so, it goes away. If...

Please need help this rattling has been bothering me for ages and Finally am able to afford to replace bearings, and get under there and find out it's not just the outer bearings its the inner ones too.

Hello, I am hoping to get some input from you guys on what to look for when troubleshooting wheel bearing issues. It all started with a slow dull howl at cruising speed and progressed to grinding in slow turns. While I did not get a chance to get the jeep up on a stand and do all wheel turn...

I was able to pull the thrust block out, without removing the differential. I installed the passenger side axle. My question is how tight should it be when you turn it by hand? i can turn it with one hand with some tension, but definitely not free spinning, is this correct?

I just had the D44 seals and bearings pressed on the axle's and now I've forgotten which axle the shorter and the longer go on which side? Thanks Mark

I have a question. I took my D44 axle's off a 2001 TJ to the shop to have new bearings and seals pressed on, I'm now befuddled as to which side (drivers or passanger) the shorter and the taller axel slip into. I just want to make sure I don't screw anything up. Thanks Mark
