Can stock xjs do any trails out there? I mainly have just drove around miles on the dirt roads never found some trails for stockers. Where are they located?

Yeah he was able to do most of the trails out the. Out on 9999 an some others an he went on the pipeline too

Bryce226 06-22-2012 01:43 AM

Yea. My stock xj made it on all those trails. Were going at 7. The trails aren't all that hard

Bryce226 06-22-2012 02:14 AM

As long as you have 4wd and lots of faith in your jeep you can do the trails. Last time we went up a gnarly *** mountain where I got stuck about 12 times in the same stop, but I had faith and it pulled through. :D

Ohhh. Any way it could be done in 2wd? Lol the vacume disconnect on our 88 seems to be malfunctioning. Last trip we went to table mesa I'm pretty sure we weren't in 4x4. If my 90 didn't overheat every 10 miles I'd take it up there.

Easy fix. I "fixed" my vaccuum disco. With a nut and two washers in 15 min. Shes always"locked" now. No difference at all.

Do you have a write up or a quick guide on how to do it.

Az87xj 06-23-2012 01:24 PM

Dude you still alive how you been

Okay, I did this months ago, but due to special request, i went underneath the jeep and took it apart for pictures so i could put up my cure for disco fever.
Now, i did waste my money on a cable disconnect kit before... WASTE OF MONEY!!! that broke the first time i used it.
This solution is nearly free if you just have the stuff laying around.
Tools required are an 11mm wrench, snap ring pliers and a catch pan.
Consumable materials are rtv, a nut (i'm not sure on size, youll find one easily) and two washers the same size.

First off, you will no longer be needing the vacuum lines that go from your t-case 4WD sensor to the disco actuator. or the vacuum supply lines. Throw them out. You dont need the sesor wires to the diaphragm either.
Remove the four bolts that secure the disco actuator, have that catch pan ready for a small amount of gear oil. Once you remove the actuator, you will see the adjusting fork and the ring that "lock" the middle shaft and right axle shaft. What you ultimately want to happen is the adjusting ring to be on the left at all times, this will keep these shafts engaged always.

Okay, so now you have this actuator in your hand,huh? heres the fun part. remove the two snap rings that hold the shifting rod in, it was really hard to get picture of these, but once its in your hand, you'll see them.(i believe there is two, gimme a break, this part is off memory now) once you have the two snap rings out, the vacuum diaphragm and shifting rod are free to disassemble. go ahead and take that out. the shifting fork will come out of the housing now. you can now put a nut or some other spacer in, with washers on either side, around the shifting rod on the RIGHT side of the fork as you assemble the housing in reverse order.

Now you can put the assembly back together. Be sure to use rtv to seal the assembly to the axle housing.
I hope this small write up has helped you and i apologize ahead of time if it confuses you at all. Good Luck!
the pictures were added in the post below. this is my first attempt at a write up

DESERTXJ206 06-24-2012 12:52 PM

Thank you very much, I will be tackeling this next week. Also what weight oil do I use in the front axle and where do I find a gasket for the diff? Might as well throw clean lube in it.

Well, I was out in Sedona all weekend and I did the Broken Arrow trail. The whole trail is a peice of cake. I went up the devils staircase with my stock xj. My buddy did it with his Disovery with a 2 inch lift too. The guy at the 4x4 shop gave us a map of trails with difficult ratings 1-5. Broken arrow being a 3.5, but honestly, it was super easy. I'm not some sort of seasoned wheeler either, just a 17 year old kid who bought his jeep less then a month ago. Anybody know some tough trails close to north valley phoenix? Thanks :p

codyc 07-09-2012 10:56 PM

Just cuz you went on a trail rated 3.5 doesnt mean you even hit any of the obstacles. You can go on all the bypasses

LeRoy90laredo 07-10-2012 01:01 AM

^that was unnecessary.
enough said.

didnt mean for you to get the wrong impression of the azcherokee club. the guys on there are normally pretty good dudes. maybe you just caught someone on a bad day. if you have any questions send me a pm and i can get it answered. it took me forever to figure out how to post pics also. i still havent found out how to change my avatar.

come join the run to CK tomorrow am.
they got some good rain so it may make things more interesting and less dusty at the very least
