Not sure who has all seen this yet, but very impressive numbers put up by Newcomer Racing. All done on a stock block and a blow thru carburetor. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write...

We have been working on a customer's TJ in the shop recently that was having some hard start issues when hot. We did all the typical recommended mods for dealing with under hood heat like the DEI heatshield and fuel rail wrap kit. We also wrapped the header and Y pipe with heat wrap as well as...

Hey Y'all, I'm looking for an old fuel pump module for a 2005 or 2006 TJ or LJ Wrangler. I don't need it to work at all. I do need it to have the level sensor. I would like it to be a Mopar part. I'm only going to be using it for measurements. If you have one that you replaced and are going...

Hey y'all, I installed a coolant filter setup a few months ago on the 2005 LJ. My plan was to run it for a few thousand miles, then cut it open and see what it caught or didn't catch. I ended up putting right at 3000 miles on the setup with the filter installed. Pretty shocking the amount of...

I took a trip to Houston this week for a training class. We stayed at a nice Marriott near the training site. I parked my '21 GMC 2500 HD about 50 yards from the entrance of the hotel, and went to bed. Next morning it was gone. Apparently this is all to frequent in the Houston area. The cop was...

I bought one to put on the used engine I'm dropping in the TJ. Seemed like a good deal at $30. I drove it 50 miles and it started squeaking. I thought it may have been the belt as I did get some drops of coolant on it when I was filling the radiator. I pulled the belt and started it, low and...

Hey y'all, this is a continuation of my other thread that had made for my turbo TJ. https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/turbo-4-liter.49996/ I bought this 2005 LJ a month or so ago and I am planning to build it much the same as I built the TJ. Many of the parts from the TJ will be moved over...

I have for sale a Turbocharged 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sport. It has a 4.0l engine and a 5 speed manual transmission. It has 223k miles on the odometer. It has a Precision Turbo PT5431E turbo and an air to water intercooler. It has been custom tuned and has made 250 horsepower at the tires. It also...

Hey folks. I thought I would continue the thread from the general section over here as it has become less of a tech question and more of a build. A quick recap up to this point. I picked up a broken 6R80 locally to do some fitment testing and start designing a pattern for an adapter from the...

I'm about to do an engine swap on the TJ to a 4.7l stroker and upgrading the turbocharger to a GT3582. The engine and turbo will be good for 5-600 hp give or take and the NV3550 that currently calls the trans tunnel home most likely will be overwhelmed along with the clutch. I have already...

Hey y'all, I thought I would share this high volume fuel pump setup I devised for my TJ. It uses a Walbro 450 pump and has an internal adjustable regulator. The Walbro 450 pumps are good for over 700 horsepower on pump gas and are also E85 compatible. The regulator is adjustable from 25psi...

Answer is yes. I have seen this question asked and answered before. Typically the answers I see range from very little to none. I had a hard time believing that there was no power to be had, so I did a little test today while I had the TJ on the chassis dyno. I tried to keep it as scientific...

We were having a discussion at the shop the other day about remote mount breather kits for the off-road stuff. I was looking online for a setup that would allow me to move my vents up to the firewall or another high spot in the system. Problem is I don't have a ton of space up in the engine...

Took the Jeep to lunch today. On the way back it lost power and the check engine light came on. I broke out the scanner and it had a code for a misfire on cylinder 3. I checked over the wiring and unplugged the number 3 injector. It had no change when unplugged. I put my noid light on the...

I think this is common knowledge for a lot of us, however there are still a few individuals installing these poly lift spacers. I purchased this Wrangler a few days ago, and after getting it on a lift and inspecting it I found several of the body mounts were missing or loose. After closer...

Kit available here: https://www.racingsolutions.com/products/legend-jeeps-turbo-kit-for-jeep-wrangler-tj-2000-2006.html Hello all, I have been kicking around the idea for a while of building an affordable bolt on turbo kit for our TJ community. I'm aware that there are some options in the...

I just installed a Cobra 19DXIV 40 CB with a 18' coax and a Firestik II 3' antenna. I have a tailight mount bracket and the stud is grounded on the bottom and has no continuity from the antenna to the frame. I am getting 2.25:1 SWR on channels 1 and 40. On channel 20 I am at 1.5:1. What is...

Who is up for an engine swap? 1004hp and 876ft/lb https://www.chevrolet.com/performance-parts/crate-engines/big-block/zz-632

Anyone else use these? I bought a few for a fluid change, and they are awesome. Makes filling the diff much easier.

I am in the process of upgrading my stock rear Dana 44 with gears, ARB air locker and chromoly axle shafts. I have the factory yoke with the straps that bolt on from the front. Is it okay to reuse the factory yoke, or should I replace it with the style that has u-bolt straps? Is there an...
