all 4.0's the same?

JeepinCreeper — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 22:15:20 GMT

While doing some routine mantainenece on The Duck today I decided to remove the inspection cover to try and determine the source of the "banging" sound. Turns out my flexplate has a huge crack in it. On to my question, I hvae the 4.0 liter engine withe the AW4 trans. I was at the local parts yard the other day to grab a bumper and saw a 93 ZJ with the engine out and flexplate intact. Are all the 4.0 flexplates the same or are they year specific? I will be going back to the yard ASAP to try and find a replacement but was wondering if it has to be a 93 ZJ.

New Jeep from Kinston

hunting5466 — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 03:40:47 GMT

I recently bought a 2008 4 door rubi. Looking forward to making additional mods. I am also SilverJeep00's dad.

It has a m8000 winch with a jeep brand metal winch bumper. It also has a metal rear bumper with a swing out tire carrier. It has a 3.5 inch skyjacker suspension lift with nitro shocks. It has a herculined trunk space too.

Here are some quick pics. More and better ones to come soon.

Thought I would share since I haven't been on here in awhile. Went to meet a few x guys, none showed, ended up meeting with some random cool guys in jeeps. Had a blast and got some ok pics and one video, nothing to great since we moved pretty quickly through the trails.

skinnypedal95 — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 23:24:40 GMT

I have decided to sell my 37x14x15 super swamper iroks. Decent tread left and no holes. $250.00
I am going to put them on here first and if they dont sell after a couple of days I am putting them on Craigs List. Send me a PM if you are interested. :brows:

I'm about to go off on somebody like a spider monkey!

skinnypedal95 — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 02:04:21 GMT

So about 4 weeks ago i ordered my 4.88 ring and pinions from 4wp. the next week i received my front gear and rear install kit they said my rear gear was on back order. then i called and had them to send the front install kit so i could ay least get started on this project. one week later the brown santa dropped off the front install kit but still no rear gear. they said they would send me a $50 gift card for my troubles and they did. after one more week of waiting i cancelled the rear gear and reordered it from desert rat. they said it would be 6-7 days. guess what? it was supposed to be here today and it wasn't. it is being shipped directly from superior and will be here on the 2nd of september. i wish i could slap someone though the phone.:slapz:

Oh no, the jeep won't go!

buckshot500 — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 23:41:39 GMT

The Homewrecker needs a starter.

It engages the flywheel, turns it a little then disengages.

It's turning/ cranking just fine, but won't stay in the thrown-out position.

I guess it's the solenoid/Bendix drive gizmo.:headscratch:

Anyway, it looks like it's about $70.00 pretty much everywhere.

There's a good repair place, (they built my weldernator) but they are only open during the hours I work. They'd prolly charge the same anyway.:dunno:

The jeep will start, after several embarrassing tries.:awesomework:
