picked up my new laptop, its great. i7 hyperthreading quad-core with overclocking.

any pointers on the tcase? I have always heard go with 231, but now im hearing 242 isnt bad. IDK!

 

They are both good you can do more with the 231 doublers, hd chain out of a dodge, and more sye options

 

hmmm, I think I might run the 242 then, I dont have a lift, and will never go more than 2" so the SYE isnt an option. the jeep will also currently be street driven a lot and I think i like my AWD option it has. Any experience with the 4wd fulltime?

 

I hav never run it. But hear good things. I know a few ppl who wheel their 242's. they are a comparable case. which is nice too!

 

went wheeling with my buddy today. cant wait to get my done.

 

I have the 242 in my 99 Limited. I've off-roaded it and found the full time 4WD to be very capable on and off road. The fact I can run my T-case on dry pavement in All time 4WD is also pretty awsome. Dont have to worry about T-case bind.

 

this is friggen awesome. Really diggin it, i'll be checking in frequently!

 

well I was supposed to have my jeep done by this weekend but I have had stuff continually come up. after having to deal with school stuff all week my dad bought 2 jeeps and my buddy rolled his wrangler.

pics of my buddy's tj and my dads new zj. still have to get pics of dads new xj.

 

I have FINALLY got my parts jeep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took it for a test drive (yes like that) then pulled the whole interior and everything I am swapping to mine. the motor runs really strong even with 10 year old oil and spark plugs and gas.

 

those are going to be my street/summer wheels for now. they will stay polished until I need tires, then they will be powdered black to go with the jeep

 

Didnt get any pics due to the rain today, but I finished tidying up the wiring in the xj, and re-cleaned the engine bay. then finished pulling the entire interior from the parts jeep. I now have a fantastic black leather seats, over head console, full gauge cluster, wood trimmed dash, black center console and best of all a complete intact center console bracket.

the only thing left to pull is the overhead wiring harness.

 

Dude i have those wheels on my 97 powder coated chrome black with black lug nuts, and needless to say theyre a head turner. You wont be disappointed.

Got a 97+ 63mm throttle body i could buy?

 

Yep, just picked up another 97 core. PM me

 

Man, this is quite the interesting build. Hope all goes well and it'll run and kick as much *** as you're hoping.

 

got the leather cleaned up and some more interior stuff done. I have school all day and I was busy tonight so I couldnt tear into it...the goal is the xj to move under its own power before sunday
