Looks like you sisters gonna be big pimpin with those rims.


Looks great.

 

looks great man

 

I had a 93 Yj as a trail rig 4cyl., 5spd, could go all day with a 1/4 tank.

 

So what rims are you running now?

 

yo how the offset on those procomps when they were on ur ranger? the look good or too far in the fenders?

 

when they were on my ranger the tires were flush with my flairs maybe 1/2" out. there 0 offset 5" backspacing 18x10. right now im back to running my 265 buckshots untill i make some bank for new wheels and tires.

-Also i just found out last night while i was back in the woods with it that the 4x4 isnt working. the T-case shifts into all gears and low works, but i dont get any wheel spin up front. there is a little vacume operated thing on the front axle. not sure how it works it has 2 vacume lines and 2 wires off it. any help would be great!!


how they sat on my ranger

 

Had the problem with my 4x4, some times it gets filled with water just unbolt it and check then seal it up. Check the vacume lines for cracks and such

 

I would take the vacuum system out. Get a long side shaft from a D30 with out the vacuum (direct swap in) and make a block off plate for the housing. That way your 4x4 will always work.

 

I remember there is a kit for like $200 to take the vacume system out and it locks the front diff by useing like a choke cable. I cant remember the company who made it

 

Its called posi-lok but your better off going to a solid shaft its stronger then the shift collor setup.

 

thanks guys ill look in to that. i hate vacume operated 4x4 systems.

 

Looks sweet, sucks I had to leave for school before it was done. Your dad still considering a winch for up front?

 

nahh not big enough... 6" with 35s and beadlocks lol

 

haha its only a 2.5L 4cyl. 33's are big enough and my sister still has to climb into it. lol

im think im going with 35s on my ranger.

 

Its been a while sence ive updated this.

installed a rugged ridge heavy duty cross over steering system and new steering shaft, tight steering now! also rebuilt the steering box. also some 2" lift shackles

 

sweet!

 

Nice, lookin at this makes me wana finish my 94 YJ. Mines gonna be 4in Rough Country, 32's, Sway bar disconnects and a 1" bl. Your on WranglerForum right?

 

that thing is spring under axle? AXLE FLIP IT!!!!!! free 3-4" lift just lengthen your driveshafts

 

Get it done! Haha and yes I'm on wranglerforum.




And I don't want to to spring over it wouldn't fit in the garage. Lol plus I'd need a sye and new driveshafts and brake lines. It does fine the way it is. Could use a locker.

 

Yeah I know, I have all winter SOA looks like its a PITA...

 

Your YJ is looking great.

I sure enjoy my 1989 YJ with 2" lift, 2.5L 5spd.
Very reliable and loads of fun.

 

i believe you can take that vacuum thing off the diff and just bolt it on backwards (with no hoses) and it will always hold it in, tho a 1 piece shaft is still better

 

i ended up doing the posi cable lock set up. worked great, and i loved that jeep but we sold it. not a practical vehical to drive from IL to GA when my sisters at school.
