I am interested to see how those joints do. I like the fact that they are easy to rebuild. Are they kind of a cross between a Johnny joint and solid rubber bushing?
And i Shall Call Her........
Gemini!
She was born 5/96, I purchased her 5/13, my wife was born 5/67. Since they are all under the sign of Gemini, it was obvious.
Here are her stats:
1996 Cherokee classic. 86k Miles, I6 HO, AW4, Np242, D30/C8.25.
First change was tinting the windows.
Then the idiot lights had to go, here is the OEM dash with the mileage and the new one from the JY, Sad side note, The yard i picked up my goodies from closed about a month ago, :realmad:

This also mandated the upgrading of the oil pressure and temp sensors.

I installed daystar front sway bar, and end link bushings. I also changed the front diff axle seals. The injectors were replaced with 703's but they leaked and i took them out and put the originals back in.
It started the dreaded "ticking" about 2 months after I got it. I pulled the valve cover, and checked for bad lifters. The rockers, lifters and rods all checked out, I had good oil pressure, but didn't like the noise. I pulled the distributor cap and found a wore out distributor, replaced it, the rotor, plugs and wires, and the tick was gone. she has been happy ever since.
I also coated the oil pan with Rustoleum bedliner, sorry no pics.
What do you guys think?? I'm not planning on turning her into an offroad beast, but would like about 3" of lift and at least some 31's.
