i just dont know where to do the work...i cant do it in catonsville...nathan is a jerk, to say the least

 

roger that. Whatever - just lemme know.

How do i get ahold of you btw when I'm off work. I was gonna head right up. Did you get my PM?

 

yeah. ima move this to pm so we dont clog this thread with off topic stuff

 

I was talking to my brother-in-law about replacing the front u-joints and he said bring it by his buddies shop for a look and he'd "hook" me up. I figured no harm so I did. He said the passenger u-joint has a lot of play and it's bad, but the driver's side is fine. I find that odd because all the popping and clicking is coming from the driver's side. Does that sound right or is this guy clueless? Also he said he'd replace them $185 for one side, $350 to do both. Needless to say I didn't leave it with him.

 

ujoints are VERY easy to figure out if they're bad. Grab the shaft with one hand on each side of the joint and twist. There should be absolutely no rotational twisting movement in the joint - if there is it's bad.

 

what is a ujoint? lol

 

oh boy Josh...oh boy

The X shaped thing with the red seals - there's on on each front axle, 3 on the front driveshaft, and 2 on the rear driveshaft

 

ok then, lol. tty 2morrow around noon i hope

 

Hey guys, just need to know whether i should put lock-tite or anti-seize on my shock mounting bolts. I always get it confused.

 

I would put anti-seize in hopes thell come out in the future.. Around by me they seem to lock-tite themselves thanks to salt

 

antiseize

 

Thanks guys, that's what i was thinking.

 

Soooo......... Proportioning valves seem hard to come by around here. Upgrading brakes in my '91 to '95 master cylinder and booster. Any ideas? Can i use existing equipment being its bendix garbage? Any other makes/models/years i can choose from? Anyone got one layin around?

 

pretty sure you only have to switch the proportioning valve when you use the ZJ/WJ brake stuff since they have disk brakes in the back. If you're just putting in a 95+ booster you shouldn't need to worry about changing it.

 

Not positive if it's tech but I've got a northeast xj so lots and lots of stuck rusty stubborn bolts. What would be the best air tool to get? Wrench, drill, or ratchet. I've got alot of stuck bolts so I don't want something thats just gonna break. Thanks
