    4.6 L smallblock or 5.0

    I only ran it once so I dont remember the 1/8 but my 1/4 was in the low 14's keeping in mind that traction was impossible and i'm in UT at about 4500' above sea level, every time i've taken one of my vehicles down to Vegas I drop at least 1 sec. in the 1/4. It was an awesome truck I wish I...

    4.6 L smallblock or 5.0

    X2 on the 4.6 its a PITA to stuff in there. I did it on a 98 ranger, took me bout' a year and a half. I drove it for a year and sold it. I'm right in the middle of a 5.0 swap in my X and so far with all the swap parts from advanced adapters I haven't even broke a sweat yet! oh and here's some...

    Supercharged 4.0

    Yup, what I meant was that they aren't necessary on the STS kist because the turbo is in the back of the vehicle where the muffler was so the distance the boosted air travels cools the air like an intercooler

    Supercharged 4.0

    x2 on building the motor first. I've always been more of a turbo fan, you can build more boost with lower rpm's where a supercharger doesn't get to full boost until right before you shift. A good friend of mine started a custom turbo company, check it out: www.ststurbo.com I love it cuz you...

    D44 will it work?

    I'm not sure how and where you guys drive but with the exception of 1 new rubicon, all of the rigs in my group of buddies (XJ's, and TJ's all on 35's) still have the stock D30's. I live just over 4 hours from Moab so we are there quite often and while yes we have had one broken shaft i've never...

    D44 will it work?

    Yea but a D30 with chromo shafts, 4.56 gears and an ARB for 200 bucks is way better than anything you could do with the p.o.s. ttb for the same price.

    D44 will it work?

    Yes it COULD work but: you'd have to fab new front susp. (control arms or leafs, new steering etc.) the wheel bolt pattern is 5 on 5.5 not 5 on 4.5 like you have, it is wider than your rear 8.8 so you'd have to swap it with a 9" or similar. But anything is possible :) I am getting ready to swap...

    Transfer case elec. to manual shift swap

    Sup' everybody just joined the forum. Wonderin' if anyone knows if you can change a elec. shift BW1354 transfer case to a manual shift just by replacing the the shifter or if the whole t.c. must be swapped? (gettin' sick of crawlin' under there and hittin' the shift motor with a hammer!)
