94cherokeeman: any word on your coworker wanting my engine?
I think my speedometer is off by 3 mph at highway speeds and I only have 225s. How do you know if you need a short or long shaft speedo gear? I plan to get one from my 31s.

I have only spoken to and met Mike. He went over my XJ with me. He took the time to answer all my questions and I am a jerk when it comes to mechanical work being done right being I am a refrigeration technician by trade so small details matter. He came off as very knowledgeable and took the time to write notes down as we walked around and spoke about my jeep.
So far as price they were far from the most expensive. They were cheaper by as much as $400.00 on the labor. Some shops wanted to charge me 10% of the total cost of the parts because I bought my own parts. Appalachian does not charge this fee. I had already purchased all the parts. Their references checked better than several of the higher priced shops.
Once the work is completed and I get it out wheeling I will post how she does.

try driving with a GPS. I know when i first got the blue Jeep, it had 215s on it, and the speedometer said I was going faster than I actually was going.

That's why I said there would be something wrong if it were at idle. See, I didn't really think
Ah **** it.
