    Car Lift - Asymmetric vs Symmetric

    With that big Ford you want the symmetric lift. I have a 10k and 12k rotary symmetric in my shop, both are fantastic lifts, just bought 3 more 9k asymmetric rotarys. Big Ford trucks are a pain in the ass to rack up properly because the rear part of the frame are much higher than the front. The...

    Sterling 10.5 spindle

    There are companies out there that replace spindles like that all the time. We had one done on a wheel lift at the last shop I worked at. They come out, chop your old one off and weld a new one on. Would be nice to know where they get the new spindles from. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Finally got it or some rocks this weekend, hit some trails at Morris Mt, dang little Chirocks took it all over stuff it shouldn't have been on. Went up mall crawl and a couple other things that I never intended this rig to be on. Threw some cheap sliders on it last week and beat them like crazy...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Took it out a couple weeks ago, with Hagan, yes he actually rode in a Jeep. Did good for the most part, had a power steering hose spring a leak, gas tank skid was rubbing on the rear trac bar mount and popping all day, think I have a fuel issue. 2 time it was in low going up hill and just had...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Got the rebuilt transmission and tcase back in today finally. Both had bad bearings in them among other stuff. Added a cooler I had laying around and abandoned the one in the radiator. Think I misplaced the trans dipstick tube bracket ::) other than that it's back together and runs good...

    Iron Duck Fab #8 my buggy build

    Re: Re: Iron Duck Fab #8 my buggy build So if the picture is backwards, the gas pedal would be on the left, as in have to use your left foot? I'm confused. I really dig this buggy, super cool chassis.

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    He is, almost worth building it just for that! laughing1 No ECM swap needed, I had to change out a plug for the speed sensor, and wired up a light for the tcase shifter bezel, no other wiring needed. It is stupid easy, go buy a $300 roll over and spend a weekend swapping parts. Zero fab...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Well staying stock didn't last long, being 27 miles from Rusty's offroad doesn't help. Added a set of front tow hooks, 3.5" lift, 31" Iroks off the blem page, lockright in the front and bought a used axle with an Aussie for the rear. Had a stalling issue that ended up being the ECM, and just...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Re: Re: Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser Good info, I'll check that out if I get to drive it tomorrow. I did manage to break the shift lock cable end, so I guess that counts for a modification.

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Troof! And I fully expect it will, at some point blow up. But these are so dang cheap and easy to work on, and they are easily available. Heck over 100k ago it blew a piston up, to the point all that was holding it together was the rings, honed the cylinder and threw a speed pro in it. Been...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Pulled the 2wd overdrive planetary housing off and practiced installing it on the donor tranny. Parking pawl is kinda a pita to get all lined up but it went on, so threw the 4wd one on and the tcase, linkage, tunnel cover, ect. Just to piss off the Jeep guys, and make sure it doesn't...

    Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser

    Re: Re: Re: Grand Cherokee 4wd conversion booze cruiser Worked on separating the overdrive housing from the donor tranny tonight. Going to just swap this out since it just unbolts and slides off. I know my trans is good so I'm not swapping the whole thing right now. The shifter bolts to a...
