Yes! XJs and YJs are both high-pinion with reverse-cut gears.

 

I totally read that too fast. Thought he was asking about the axle itself

 

Even then, WMS to WMS is the same, you'd have to cut all the mounting **** off and weld on coil buckets, shocks, and sway bar mounts. Shafts are a direct swap with Renix CAD junk

 

Cool good to know. Thanks

 

'00/01 are LP

 

This...sadly. Wish they never stopped making the HP. They knew they were phasing the xj out

 

I'm lost
I replaced the thermostat and now it's reading correctly but now it's leaking. I replaced the gasket twice and I replaced the housing and it's still leaking around the bottom of the housing. Should I put double gaskets and put a ton of sealant on there?

 

No, both surfaces need to be properly clean. I prefer to put a light coat of rtv on both mating surfaces and then the gasket in the middle.

 

No just put a little rtv on the gasket and install

 

The one time I forget to include that... Clown is there! lol

 

Apply it, let it sit for a few minutes until it's tacky, and then assemble. Don't tighten everything up right after applying the RTV, or you'll just squeeze it all out.

I'm there all the other times, too, but I don't have to correct you when you're right lol

 

rtv? Sorry I'm not real good with gaskets

 

Sealant

 

I use rtv black for that, and the stealership gasket. Or whatever Napa sells.

 

I'll ask my question one more time to see if perhaps someone will have an idea. 98 xj, 4.0/ax15. Possibly glazed my clutch trying to crawl a tire, at first it just seemed like the clutch wasn't grabbing as well. Drove it for an hour with no problems, then all of a sudden I push in the clutch pedal and it goes to the floor, then I let off and it has pressure again. Its still shifting good and seems to be grabbing pretty close to normal, however the clutch pedal won't go to the floor. I have to force the pedal down to where it engages the clutch safety switch in order to start the Jeep. Going to bleed the slave cylinder tomorrow and take it from there. Only 3000 miles on a new clutch kit.
