When I do my 4wd swap on my comanche I may have to drive in 4wd with only the front driveshaft while I get the rear shortened. I have an auto locker in the front axle. How bad will this be? It's also a manual. Will I be able to get away with just keeping the clutch in on turns?

I want to adjust my front pinion angle. Is there any reason why I can't just loosen the lca frame bolts and caster shoe, use a bottle jack to set the pinion, and tighten up the bolts and go? Seems pretty basic but just want to make sure.

Just bought a '98 classic, that makes three jeeps now, wife thinks I might have a problem. Anyway, I want to fog the truck and wanted some experienced advice. Should I seafoam before or after I change the oil? I'm thinking before unless it won't really have an effect on the condition of the oil. Figured the treatment would breakup the crap and the crap will wind up in the oil if it's not burned off.
cluster problems
Okay guy I recently bought a 99 Cherokee sport I love it but the guy said "oh it just needs a new cluster" (which it came with) I tore the dash apart after getting it home the next day put it in nothing... It came with a aftermarket radio too that won't work its hooked up correctly as I can tell what's my problem ? My warning lights come on and signals. My computers throwing a code for the cluster was well saying there isn't one ?

may not have any adjustment left. Generally youll need adjustable UCA to set it. Im in the same boat. According to go jeep i need to adjust my caster by 1.5* which will also raise my pinion too at the same time

edit; Using bottle jack underneath coil bucket, correct? Not the pumpkin or yoke itself?
Chocking rear tires and rotating front also works.
