Went to the jy today and seen a 91 xj 4x4 with the ax15 trans....
Was trying to get the front driveshaft for my Comanche but those driveshaft bolts at the case were a b****h to get loosened....
I got all but one out and it stripped....! Any ways to get it out?
Wiggle the shaft until it snaps.

Tried that but it's kinda of hard to do with not much wiggle room....
I'll try again tomorrow

Guy at the jy lent me a sawzal but I forgot that bolt has a rim under the head so I couldn't get my flathead and hammer enough to turn it after cutting the head

No luck!
I was literally breaking the u joint caps then the actual screw...kept trying for about an hour till I gave up...
This Friday hopefully I can bring the Comanche driveshaft to that shop to get it shortened to get it back on the road...

Question guys... do you think its worth "Modding" a 2x4? I don't plan on doing any crazy mudding or offroading other than maybe going hunting at JW Corbett. I mostly want a Light Bar up front and some other small things. Maybe a lift. But honestly, is it worth modding a 2x4? Or should I try to trade it for a 4x4 (which I doubt anyone would do)?

You can get around in Corbett in 2wd with a good set of tires and a mild lift.

Morning guys, morning Gary. I had a nice argument with a few idiot kids here. They told one member that the 4.0 is incapable of turning 40" tires in Fl mud, even with proper gearing. I posted a pic I had of yours throwing rooster tails off Krome. They argued and swear you have a V8 swap. Dumb kids only know HP and nothing about TQ. Lmfao.

Good afternoon fellas.


Some news, "El Chapo" is still at large.
We got a sweetheart of a deal with Iran. Now they won't be able to get nukes for at least a month or two, and oh yeah, I traded my XJ for a 96 Civic.


So I won't have a Jeep for at least the next few weeks.
But I did buy a clean 98 XJ 4x4, and I'll be picking it up the first or second week of August.
