The ZJ's were comfy, but the couple I was around had some odd wiring issues.
The Supra had the A340 which was in the same family as the AW4 IIRC. I know a bunch of the parts go back and fourth and the guys who build the AW4's use A340 parts in them. One day I'm going to stuff a new VB in mine. At 185k miles, its getting weak. I know what i'm doing with my XJ when the 185k mile motor finally gives out in 20 years. Cherokees and Miatas go together, it's just natural. Proud owner of a 2000 Cherokee Sport 4x4 checking in. Best automotive purchase i've ever made. Solid 9/10 condition, EVERYTHING works exactly as it should, and it drives like a dream. These are truly great vehicles. |
my jeep's front drive shaft is gonna come off tomorrow...
see if there's a simple fix to my constant horrible noises up front |

Buying...

Get something preferably with D44 axles unless you want to keep it stock. D35s SUCK. If you plan on doing any offroading, D35s will snap easily. I'm talking, you drop the clutch and that is a snapped D35 axle. 33" tires are the limit of the D35 axles. 35" tires and you WILL have to baby it with no offroad (small snow here and there).
Oh nvm gz on the purchase. |

Which ones did you order? Post up how they turn out for you. I now have 4 down/rock lights and two of those big floods, I'm looking for some goo cheap led spots and I'll be set.
As far as axles go, the 29 spline 8.25 is a great axle and will hold 35's without an issue. I have a locked 29 spline unit in mine that was on 34's for a year and a SUPER heavy foot (to the tune of 2 D30's that same year). |

Oh hey. Jeep gurus:
The GF's 99 XJ has 68k miles on it. I'm hearing/feeling a thumping sound when going down slightly rough to rough roads. The thumping seems to occur when the motion of the up/down motion of the axles change direction relative to the body. No wheel bearing problems. I'm suspecting a bushing but there are so many I wouldn't know where to begin. Any thoughts? |

I had 2 jeeps. A Wrangler and a Grand Cherokee. I love them.
