The only one I have built I did text book, but centered the tire, seems if it was a little towards the driver side it would help with a right rear blind spot.

That was biggest point. Opens up into traffic.

My spare mounts under the floor in the back, hence why it hangs so low.

How much does it raise it?

Kind of what I thought, but so do both doors on the drivers side, so I see that as something that can be worked around with common since.

Injectors.... cps... distributor... distributor cap and button... wrong plug wire locstions... burned fuel injector wires... All could be a culprit even even the ones you just changed...

The only thing I haven't replaced is the distributor itself. I've got a deal lined up to go purchase a new cherokee with an H.O in it that already has the roof chopped off. Planning to swap everything over. If that falls through I'll dig into this jeep more. But probably going to be starting over

just cause you just replaced it doesnt mean anything i said lol... ive had 3 CPS sensors be no good when i tested them from the parts store... anything can be tested with a volt meter and googling... your distributor also houses your cam position sensor which also determines your firing just like the CPS but on the top end... the coil could be weak also...

Yeah that's one of the ones we have at work. Wish it had a higher RPM range, we used to have one that spun at 2200 RPM lol.

Ended up with a Skil one. Higher RPM and a little cheaper.

the exact same happened to me with a 1/2 inch dewalt, but I was drilling my bumper. The housings must flex and cause the trigger to stick when they get in a bind.

I guess but that ****s dangerous!! First time it did it I was drilling my rear link mount holes larger and was sitting on the ground between the arms crossing everywhere... I let go but the drill just started spinning like crazy inches from my face... thought I was gonna die! Lol... then it pinned my hand and caught fire doing that! Lol

Nope... not looking good... Front passenger air shock bleeds out... that Y link ain't acting right either... hard to explain but the lower arm rotates on the heim a pretty good ways which makes the upper mount where it attaches to the lower pop back and forth as the lower arm twists on the heim... gotta figure that out to... just some kinks and bugs I gotta work out but workin now and wifes pissed I spend my off time outside and not with her and the baby so gotta slow down on it lol... I'll work on it tomorrow probly some... plus I gotta buy a bunch of crap for work I didn't know about... climbing boots... lineman tools... crap like that...
