Trying to diagnose some engine sounds. I don't think I hear knocking sounds, but after placing mic under the car I can hear some other sounds, which you can hear in the attached audio clip. I plan to drop the pan soon, inspect the timing chain slop, inspect the bearings and take plastigauge...

Installing new ring & pinion. Trouble getting on the new inner pinion bearing. Pesky Dana 30 inner pinion bearing doesn't respond well to hot (bearing) & cold (pinion) treatment. No hydraulic press. Two options: Drive it on with pipe Pull it on with bearing separator (e.g...

I'm having a hard time deciding between an e-locker or air locker for my upcoming S35 install. I will be doing the install myself. Previously, I thought I was set on e-locker for the simplicity. But now I can't help feel that I would be missing on so much without an air compressor. Has anyone...

Throwing 4.88's into my Dana 35 (from 3.07). Made my inner pinion setup race. Extracted the factory pinion shim, annoyingly between the pinion head and bearing (0.042). Built a stack equal to the factory shim and threw it behind the inner pinion race. Thick factory carrier shims wouldn't fit...

I have access to either of these options for my upcoming Super 35 build and wanted to get your thoughts. From the research I've done, neither are ideal, but I'd like to choose the lesser of two evils. I primarily drive on concrete/asphalt, so I'm not so thrilled about the Grizzly auto locker...

I am trying to identify the source of a clunk that I hear only when accelerating in 1st from idle. I can avoid it if I accelerate very slowly but I can't for the life of me track it down. All new control arms that are tightened, new motor mounts, new transmission mount. I haven't yet checked...

New member here... Trying to figure out how to resolve some driveline vibes on my TJ. It came with a lift, which appears to be the 4in RC lift kit. Has the TC drop from the kit, appears to also have the lower control arm from the kit, and also has a body lift. No MML. When I get it up to highway...
