I just got some jb weld epoxy and tapped out the hole where it broke and inserted a male nipple the same size. Couldn’t find anything that would work other than that.

Does anyone know the size and length of the front shock bolt?

Hello, I’m regearing my Dana 30 to 4.88 and this is only the second time I’ve done gears. I think my pinion is a bit shallow and wanted input. Do you think a .003 shim behind the pinion should be good or would you go thicker. And also it looks to be hitting the heel a bit and should I decrease...

Im doing a complete rebuild on a tj and was starting in the gas tank today and both the vents on my 2002 tj gas tank nipples are broken. Does anyone know where to get replacements and how to remove the old ones. I have searched the web for videos and parts and only found 1 possible replacement...

I was working on my daughters Jeep and broke the inlet line on the fuel rail and the hose nipple on her power steering reservoir. She has a 2000 tj the 4 cylinder 2.5L and I have searched the net for both and have had no luck finding either. I found a power steering reservoir for the 4.0L but...

Ok so I checked all the vacuum lines and no leaks. I also switched out the TPS with a Napa part and still has a high idle. Cleaned all the connectors real good but no luck. I then unplugged all the connectors that are on the throttle body and started it up and had a low idle about 500rpm. When...

Need some help with this issue on my daughters Jeep. She had a CEL come on about a week ago and when I checked the codes had a p1294 code so I did some research and changed the IAC with a Napa part and pulled the throttle body and cleaned it well as well as the IAC port. I cleared the code and...

My coworker is willing to give me a set of tires for my daughters 2000 tj and I would like to know if they will fit or will they be too big. The tire size is 255/75 R17. The tj is bone stock and has the smaller 4cyl engine. Will this size be ok or will they rub. She only uses the jeep for her...

I am doing a complete restore of a 2002 tj sport and will be putting a 4” currie lift and 1.25 body lift. My plan was to do a 1” motor mount lift and replace the old worn oem motor mounts. Is it necessary to get the oem from rock auto or will the napa version be ok? What is the reasoning behind...

Yes that’s the kit I was looking at.

No I have the Currie upper and lower adjustable control arms with a 4” lift

Ok thanks how about any recommendations for the front bushings on the diff?

Ok thanks for the input! Another question, I was planning on getting the upper control arm bushings from savvy for the Dana 30 it’s a kit that you have to cut off one of the upper control arm bushing attachment and weld their Jonny joint specific bushing on. Is that worth it or should I just...

Tried looking up info on trusses and gussets but couldn’t find anything. I wanted to know thoughts on strengthening my front Dana 30. The way me and the wife off road is the trails in the alpine loop in CO and some mild rock crawling in Moab and NM. I have the front Dana 30 out and I’m going to...

Sorry I meant the pinion preload is at 20-22 in lbs the torque is probably in the low to mid 200 ft lbs range.

I recently installed a super 35 kit myself, and while reading instructions on a post in the diy section here on how to set up gears it stated to torque the nut down to 20-40 in lbs for a setup with new bearings. When I checked the gear manufacturer settings it is saying to torque the pinion nut...
