    Looking for a transfer case rear output shaft oil slinger

    Rebuilt my transfer case and noticed it was without the oil slinger that slides onto the output shaft before the drive shaft yoke. Was hoping someone who has done a SYE conversion lately and hadn’t tossed the slinger yet might be willing to send it my way. I know it doesn’t need it but I would...

    6 pin planetary gear vs 3 pin on NP 231j

    Rebuilding my worn1997 231j TC and was wondering if I should spend the extra money on a used 6 pin planetary gear. Some have said it’s quieter and a little stronger others say no need. I’m a mild trail guy so I’m not too worried about breaking it, just thought it might last longer and be less...

    Front drive shaft vibes and solutions

    I have a 97 TJ with a DPG Ultimate Lift. It’s about 21/2 inches in height. Using stock control arms and no SYE. Also has been re-geared to 4.56. Since I have owned it, and before the lift, I have always had slight vibration that starts around 55 and increased as the Jeep accelerated. It was...

    New running boards / steps

    Thanks Nah Most of the time in the summer I either run a bikini top or use the AC. I got the top from Amazon Warehouse for a great deal. You do need AC in Texas though. .:)

    Questions on Modifying Wheel Center Hub

    Exploring the idea of adding Yukon Free Spin Hub Kit WA-007 (small 5x4.5) on my TJ. I like my OEM Ravine Wheels. To keep them with the kit added I would have to bore them out. How does boring out the center hub hole (spigot hole) on the OEM Alloy Ravine wheel affect it’s integrity? Will it...

    Will a 231 transfer case from a 2005 TJ fit in my 1997 TJ?

    I have 5 speed AX15. The 05 TJ has a NSG370. Plan was do a swap while I rebuild my original T/C. Once I get the 05 T/C home I can measure and do a spline count. Since the T/C is free its worth a shot.

    Will a 231 transfer case from a 2005 TJ fit in my 1997 TJ?

    Will a 231 T/C out of an 05 TJ direct swap into a 97 TJ? I know that the 05 has a harmonic balancer. Does this effect fitment? I believe internals are same but not sure on shaft length input and output wise. Thanks

    SYE questions

    Thanks May not have been clear. All components of the DPG lift including the MML and BL have been installed for 2+ years. Believe it or not I have never driven another TJ. I don’t have terrible shake or vibrations but it’s not smooth either. I can only compare it to a YJ and a CJ 5 I owned...

    97 TJ makes a loud whining noise that sounds like a laughing monkey

    My 97 did the same thing. When the noise started it did it when cold, but over six months progressively lasted longer until it was all the time. Sounded like a high pitched metalic chirp. Thought it was the AC compressor then the Idler Pulley. Finally took a 3/4 inch pvc pipe and used it as...
