  1. What part of upsate you, from I'm in the Corning Elmira area

     

    Unless you get a mileage and year that the timing belt was changed i would do it mine was changed at 160xxx aand then sat for a year and broke at 179xxx so i would do it

  2. So i lost alot of power when it comes to take off acceleration and it seams that i have more engine noise than normal not exhaust this noise is coming from infront of the fire wall and i have a bad o2 sensor downstream driver side my muffler is new and bigger than stock so do i have a cracked manifold or cloged cat? I also lost alot of mpg im mabey getting 10 -12 mpg right now

    Or is it juat the bad o2

  3. So if i was to go get a set of cams could i just stick them in and be done? Or do you have to change valve springs and all that stuff?

    And let me get this straight your taking the vg30 cams and sticking them in the bigger vg33? How does it make more power? Wouldent the vg30 have a smaller cam since its a smaller (in liters) motor? So wouldn't putting the smaller (as makes since to me) cam out of the vg30 in a vg33 make it a smaller stroke making it less powerfull?

  4. im looking to sfd my pathy 3" make my own spacers buy the adapters and panhard drop and brake lines from krfab would these coils work (http://www.rustysoffroad.com/jeep-suspension/jeep-coil-springs-spacers-accessories/jeep-wj-grand-cherokee-99-04-coils-springs-coil-spring-spacers/rustys-coils-wj-4-5-rear.html)

     

    have a 1.5"spacer in the front now so it should equal to level

  5. what are the mesurments like width of the tubing to make the spacer for the frame its self like i want it to be 3" so would i do a 3" by 3" square or a 3"x2" rectangle? like whats the width of the peice i need then what are the dimensions of the strut spacer cause i read that they have a angle to them i read a thread with the guy making his own but cant seem to find it

     

  6. I will tomarrow and i very rarely hit 70 i stay around 60 but as a quick walk threw the po upgraded from the stock 1" 1/2? pipe with a custom 2" y pipe from the cats down then i replaced from shortly the y with 2"1/4 into a thrush turbo muffler then put a 2"3/4 tail pipe on ( bought it from jy thought it was 2"1/2 i didn't measure so i just made it work,

     

    when i first put it on i wasent happy with the sound it wasnt loud enough but now that the interior of the muffler has broke down it has a good rumble at idle but dosent seem to resonate into the cabin much but i also have a sound system so i dont hear much of anything but that

  7. the way i plan on making it is useing metal that have all the holes in it (to mount the bumper to where it would clip to the old support and mount to the frame) then useing more of it just make a trapazoid? i tthink a rectangle with a top that is shorter than the bottom and the sides angle in from botom to top not actully have the support just a frame that has bracing to hold it stiff i have a bunch of the metal because my gpa used it for everthing and then use it also to mount my light

     

    well in my tear down i found im leaking major oil from my oil pan gasket so im thinking about doing a sfd since i have to drop it anyways to change that gasket i am thinking of doing a 3" i can fab the spacers for the subframe but am going to look at buying the 4" strut spacer from krfab so i can still have the level look i have how would i go to lifting the rear? and can i buy just the spacers from krfab?
