Is this a good gear kit? I have 31s and want more speed.

The general consensus is to not put money into a 35, especially if you want to run bigger than 31's.

Not that 4.88's are what you want anyway because you will be overgeared.

X2 on the D35. I'm waiting for mine to break...
Stock gears with LSD with 33s. Performs very well. Starting to think the guy upgraded the shafts when he put the LSD in.

Asd relay problem

Info: 97 4.0 ax15 stock down the floor mats.

The 8.25 hit the frame going over a bump and shorted out the 4 wires going to the fuel pump (crushed them) I replaced the wireing (crushed part) and it wouldn't start... So I checked every fuse in the jeep with continuity meter, there all good, wouldn't start so I checked the code and got Asd relay open circuit, bypassed the Asd so I can drive it and replaced the relay but no luck still no start, so what am I missing?

I did search Btw to no avail.

Highway driving can go from about 2000 RPM at 65 MPH to oh 3500-3800 or so...

Great for a trailer queen though.

Are you missing fuel, spark, or both?

Did it start with the relay bypassed?

Yeah the ASD relay powers the O2 sensors, coil, and injectors.

Are you able to see if there's power to the control pin of the relay when the engine is cranking? I suppose you could do it running with the other side jumped.

Ever refreshed your grounds?
