    What are these called?

    Probably a silly question, but I can’t figure out exactly what these are called. They are the little retaining brackets that bolt on to the rear yoke that hold the u-joints in place. I searched rear yokes and they didn’t seem to be part of that assembly. And I searched the u-joints and they...

    Thank you everyone for the advice. Since the TJ is gonna stay relatively stock, I think I’ll go the OEM route. Thanks again all.

    SYE on stock TJ?

    Rear output shaft on tcase, and rear driveshaft need to be replaced on the TJ. Considering doing a SYE install since I have to open up the tcase. I don’t plan on lifting the Jeep or doing any other suspension mods. I don’t use the TJ for off-roading, so it’s stock for the most part. Looking at...

    2004 Transfer Case Replacement Help

    Bingo. A while back I started feeling some vibration while driving. I misdiagnosed it as a bad o2 sensor because I threw a CEL for a o2 sensor and misfire around the same time. I kid you not, the day after I change the o2 sensor, my rear driveshaft decides to liberate itself from the transfer...

    I do like the idea of not playing roulette with a used transfer case.

    Is it worth it to install a SYS kit? Honestly don’t offroad the TJ very often.

    2004 Transfer Case Replacement Help

    Sorry for the slow reply, busy day yesterday. So what started this was when the Jeep crapped out on the highway. Ended up shearing off the output shaft on the transfer case, completely losing the rear drive shaft, and busting the u-joint at the yoke. After research I decided to just get a...

    Transfer Case: Harmonic Balancer or Not?

    Picking up a new used transfer case to swap in…my current TC has a harmonic balancer on it. Does the new used one NEED one? I haven’t ordered it yet, but most of the transfer cases I have seen do not have the harmonic balancer. Is it necessary? Thanks.

    2004 TJ Rear Driveshaft Shaft Help

    Hey all. Could use a little help here. This morning, on the way to work, the rear propeller shaft decided it no longer wanted to associated with the rear differential and the transfer case. I heard a loud bang and lost my gears. I was able to coast to the shoulder and investigate. Turns out that...

    CB Install Help (Poor Reception?)

    AARL is a solid resource for related info. My buddy is a ham operator and he turned me on to the site. Great stuff there and I had actually started looking into getting licensed pre-pandemic. Sorta took a back burner since. First off, that is a damn fine looking rig you have there. As far as my...
