That's never good even as a test if he goes too fast he can damage some parts

ok first off ignore my member status this is my 2nd account therefore not a noob

I have run into a few problems with my rig as of late
its a 99 sport with the re 3.5 super ride w/ full leaf packs
i purchased a rusty's adj trackbar which keeps destroying the frame end tre
i've been told its meant for more lift than i currently have
so do i find another track bar or.... look into more lift then more problems

I'm not against more lift just not sure how to go about it and keep cost down
I have looked into adding a 2in bb to what i already have then getting the lca drop brackets (ok since I don't really do rock crawling) or a long arm upgrade for better ride.

Problem #2 is more basic.. my rear brakes keep falling appart
the pin the self adjuster pivots on keep coming undone on the pass side set-up
i've rebuilt them twice and keep having the same problem
i only do one side at a time to have the other as refrence as i should i'm just stumped

any ideas guys
thanks for listening

Are you seating the pin all the way into the shoulder? If you are you might need to use some 2 part epoxy or JB weld on the back side grind the paint off around the hole first. It happend to me once either the pin or hole could be out of tollerance allowing it to vibrate out.

BotakBeng

Thx but what would you suggest?

northernnorm

I agree hard turn + hard surface +gas = damage
Find yourself some dirt and hit the gas hard enough to spin the tires a bit then get out and look at your marks if you've thrown some dirt front and back 4 is working and no need to go nuts with it a foot or two will give you the answer

I agree with all of u to....but common sense would tell u not to put it in 4 mashed the right pedal and drift a corner. I was just saying...its an easy and fast way..u could be moving like .2371 mph and be able to tell by how it turns...

BotakBeng

Thx ya.
I'll try that.

Im lifting my xj to clear 35s and was wondering what type of axle or gears i should run i have stock gears now with 31s with a dana 35.

XJmotard

I would say an 8.8 in the rear that has 4.10s...easy swap, and pretty much direct fit...the front...I would go with a d44....but there's gonna be tons of different opinions...

dukie564

I would SERIOUSLY consider some axle upgrades / swap with anything over 33s, especially on a d35 rear. I would recommend a ford 8.8 swap or at least a 29-spline c8.25 in the rear, and axle shaft/u-joint upgrades minimum in the front.

That being said, usually 4.54 gears are perfect for 35s

XJmotard

Agree very much...

I'm thinking about getting either a Spartan automatic locker or a lock right for my front d30 but since my xj is my DD I'm worried about how it would affect my street driving any suggestions or advice would help
