    97 TJ Speedo Healer Trouble

    Unfortunately I don't. Pretty stumped on this one. I'm at the end of a 9 month build, and a functioning speedo is the only think keeping me from getting it inspected. I find it hard to believe that two speed sensors could be faulty, but I guess it's possible.

    97 TJ Speedo Healer Trouble

    No, it does not work with the SpeedoHealer removed.

    97 TJ Speedo Healer Trouble

    Just installed JB Conversions super short SYE on a 1997 Wrangler 4.0L 5 speed and now the speedometer does not work. This SYE replaces the gear drive speedometer sensor with a tone ring and variable speed sensor (VSS). I have tightened and re-tightened yoke nut to 200+ foot pounds so I don’t...

    Savvy Lift and Suspension Cycling Question

    They have a 16.05" - 27.33" which would give me 6" up and 5.3" down, for 11.3" of total travel. Seems fairly ideal. Was surprised by the ride height, but I guess it is what it is and I should follow what the numbers dictate. If the springs settle it will only improve the bias.

    Savvy Lift and Suspension Cycling Question

    I'm in the home stretch of my winter build and need someone to sanity check me on shock lengths. I installed a 4" Savvy short arm lift with Currie track bars and steering, and Currie bump stop kit. The axles have had weight on them for two weeks now. I pulled the rear springs today and cycled...

    33.5 x 12.5 MT/R replacement

    I'm looking at those same tires and seeing $250 each, so you got a good deal. Where did you find them at that price?

    New guy with another (possibly dumb) gearing / axle question

    There's something to be said for over building, but a properly done dana 30 will hold up to pretty much anything you're going to throw at it on 35's. I could be mistaken, but I don't believe there's much difference in the 30 and front 44 housing strength wise, so if you put in good shafts you...

    New guy with another (possibly dumb) gearing / axle question

    I would figure roughly $4,500 in parts to get your current axles up to snuff (lockers, gears, front shafts, big brake kit). Then decide whether you want to build them yourself, or fork out another $2k to have the work done. I haven't priced out Currie axles recently, but I'd guess you're...

    Dana 30 e-locker question

    Yep, you've got it right. Pop the end of the slip ring out of the groove and it will spin out easily. Nothing to worry about in disassembly except a couple of alignment pins (if I remember correctly). I set my ring gear on the wood stove for a while and put the carrier in the freezer. It will...

    Gear Pattern Check

    Backed it off two thou and came up with this. Still no expert, but I think it looks pretty dang good!

    Gear Pattern Check

    Moved the pinion in 3 thou, how about this?

    Gear Pattern Check

    Thanks for going out of your way to comment! I think there's some room for improvement, but I'm happy to see it so close. It's been a fun learning process, will make some additional tweaks to see if it can be perfected a bit.

    Gear Pattern Check

    Move the pinion in 3 thou, or shift the carrier into the pinion? I'm getting a better understanding of how the changes interact, just want to make sure I'm understanding suggestions correctly.

    Gear Pattern Check

    That's why I asked 😂 Contact on the coast side has been high in all of my settings. Wasn't sure how important it was to try to balance, vs perfecting the drive side.
