I wouldn't mess with less than 25 if you want to do 65 MPH.
What is the point of this endeavour exactly? Figuring out how much you can air down and then drive home without reinflating?

Yep. Also trying to figure out what the lowest PSI I can drive daily, for the purpose of being able to check out random trails without making a big endeavor of it. I'm stuck with a 2WD XJ until I can convert to 4x4 (probably this Winter) so tire pressure is critical to my capability.

Yes I had my first 4 wheel alignment after the lift. It is at -.91 degrees. It pulls slightly while driving, more when accelerating. It was in spec before the lift. Sorry for the late reply, thank you in advance for any help.

Will speedometer from 1999 Grand Cherokee work in a 1993 Cherokee?
Have a 1993 Cherokee that speedo quit working. Replaced the speed sensor, not the problem. Head has to be bad. Have a '99 Grand Cherokee that I can take the unit out of, but I need to know if they are comparable or is it apples to oranges?
Thanks, WMac

Get an inflator already Will make a super quick job of airing up on stock tires. You don't want to be running around low pressure all the time. It's not worth the fuel or tire wear.

Sorry I'm not familiar with what commonly breaks on a '93's speedo system but I can tell you that a WJ's setup is extremely different.
Does the odometer still work?

Hey all, quick question about the D30 yoke. I've been having bad vibes at highway speeds so I'm trying to make sure I'm not missing something easy. I have a rebuilt driveshaft with all new ujoints so I know that isn't the problem.
Vibes go away when I take front ds out.
Anyways, is the yoke supposed to have this type of movement or play? I just don't want to end up spending other money trying to fix this problem when it could be something simple like a new yoke. Here's a video.

There's no in and out movement so I'm guessing the bearings are good

Having a problem with my '79 F150, but it's disc brakes like anything else:
Sometimes when I'm driving (coasting and/or under throttle), it pulls left. Sometimes after braking, the left side sticks hard. It's behaving just like my Camaro did when the soft line deteriorated, and that was fixed with a new rubber hose.
What has me perplexed is that when the left side sticks, and ONLY when the left side sticks, the truck pulls hard right when I brake.
I already bought new rotors, calipers, pads, and lines to put up front, but I'm wondering if this is two issues or if, more likely, there's a connection that I'm not seeing.
