Big sale promotion happening online for Advanced Auto Parts. I need to get new drums, hardware, and shoes for my 8.25 29 spline swap.

The last time I got drums there were two different sizes to choose from and i cant figure out what the difference is online.

Does anyone have the part numbers for these?

Depends on what it needs. You can pick up a whole new column at the PaP for 25 bucks.

Meh, I have one but I still hate it. Mines mounted to my roll cage. Right behind where the top is chopped.

My Dad's is mounted to the roof rack. Not the OEM roof rack.

Default Weathertech DigitalFit in pre-97 XJ?

I love weathertechs and have them in all my other cars.

Will weathertech digitalfit floor liners for 97-01 XJs work in my 96? Their website doesn't list anything for 96 or earlier, but I thought the floor shapes were the same?

Anybody done it before I drop $200?

There are a few threads on the topic. I recently got one and had it on my brush guard with 550 cord. Then I decided that u bolts on my basket would be a safer place.
