Doing the disk conversion easily one of the best mods I have done so far. Completely worth the money and effort!

 

Hi.
I have a Jeep Cherokee Briarwood -91 green metalic witch I plan to lift with Rustys 3" spring kit. Is ther any special with an Briarwood or does that kit fit to this car? Later I gone repait the car and put back the missing wodden texture dose any one know where I can find the texture? The car i in good shape and not many kilometers on the meeter.

p.s. I live in Sweden so excuse my poor english.

 

Only thing special with the Briarwoods was that they were loaded with all of the "comfort" features (leather seats, power everything, AC, etc...). Shouldn't have a problem with that lift.

There use to be a few places that you could order the new vinyl wood paneling stuff from, but I cannot find it anywhere now. Not sure where to look now.

 

woodgrain and white is cool

 

Looking Good! I'm looking at lift kits from rocky road, anyone heard of them? Coach.

 

Any local sign shop should be able to get a hold of your choice of wood grain vinyl.

 

Yes I thougt so to. I have a friend that has a company that put commercial on cars and I belive hi can help me.

 

Well, I figured the Jeep has been sitting there for a little too long now. Started taking apart the other 242 and ordered an RE HackNTap for it earlier this week. Time to get the ball rolling so I can go wheeling! Its been too long since my last trip.

What else needs to happen:
Put that other 242 in with HackNTap, along with a front driveshaft and whatnot
Longer front brake lines
Bump stops
Motor mounts
New crossmember

 

Discovered that the track bar needs some attention so I'll probably be ordering an Iron Rock Offroad Track Bar this paycheck so I can get that straightened out and not have to worry about issues when I drive it. HackNTap gets here tomorrow, so I'll also be tearing into the TCase some more this weekend.

 

 

 

nice build so far. did you get a new chain to put in it? im sure a 19 year old chain has probably stretched, i know mine is kinda loose.

you got the RE HnT kit? i was looking at ironrocks, that one seems pretty good, and a really good price. plus it comes with a driveshaft and i like the yoke and seal instead of the hunk of metal that is RE's hack and tap.

 

The TCase is from a '99. Chain seemed alright, so I was comfortable enough with not replacing it, especially after realizing how easy it is to tear into the case to work on it.

Yeah, got the RE1801 HackNTap. I didn't mind the flange, I'd need an adapter either way to run a front driveshaft in place of the rear. I got a free front driveshaft so I figured Id save the money and just put the effort into using it.

 

oh. that all makes sense now haha. why did you replace the old transfer case?

 

Don't think the old tcase is in the best of shape. Possibly has a stretched chain and it leaks like a ****.
