I have rustys fixed lowers. Haven't had a single problem since day one.

Just make sure you don't tighten the bolts until the jeep is on the ground at ride height.

 

My caster is at 9 degrees lol. Even on both sides too. Either going LA or adjustable with drop brackets next spring. These bushings suck and no grease zerk.

What uppers you running Rob?

 

anyone here want to talk about stroking your XJ?
I did mine and would like to help anyone considering it

 

that sounds like an amazing idea.! haha

 

How about some info on yours.

I've considered it. Just a budget stroker with the 4.2 crank and rods.

 

what is the power diffrence in strokers bs stock?

 

I believe the budget stroker will put you right around 300 wheel torque.

This is a great link

 

when mine finally dies Ill do 4.2 rods and crank and a cam. but so far it seems like it wont be dieing anytime soon. hell it still passes smog so good they test it twice to be sure lol

 

I did alot of online reading and there were a few options to which way for me to go. I bought a Haynes repair manual for specifacations. I finally decided to go with a Titan engine for my parts. There are a few threads on here and other forums that bad rap there stuff. I don't know why, but I rebuilt my own and didn't purchase a allready built engine. Titan was very helpful and allways answered all my tech questions. I was told that I would get between 40/50 HP. I wanted a stroker to pull my boat to the lake, and it really pulls. What a difference. But not like maybe what you would think. Titan is a good way to go, but build it yourself and let me help you if you're local. I also have a 258 crank and rods right now.

 

So my Jeep is not starting. Here are the symptoms.

- Left for work, started first crank as always.
- Stopped for gas and now it won't start
- Jeep has power
- Starter is not getting power, not even a click. The starte relay does not seem to click as well
- Tried swapping the starter relay, no luck
- Tried swapping starter fuse, no luck
- Tried a jump start, no luck

I have no idea whats going on, any ideas? I'm thinking maybe NSS. I did have to cross a psudo-river yesterday

 

If you jump power to your relay will it turn over?

 

Thats a step I will take later today.

 

I would try that or your NSS relay. If i recall correctly dont quote me on this but the AC relay is the same and you can swap them for trouble shooting. again double check this because last time i was researching this it was for a WJ

 

Yea the fuel pump and starter relay are the same.

after work i'm going to try:

Checking fuse 19 (starter fuse)
Bypass NSS

Hopefully this actually works.

 

Used to happen to me all the time. Replaced all the fuses, rebuilt the N.S.S. and bought new relays too. Stupid PDC box just needed to be rocked towards the passenger fender and it would start. Bad ground did me in.
