Northern's lower brand products are far superior to harbor freight's stuff.

What brand of jerry can is that?

Welcome to The Machine......... What diiiid ya dreeeeam? IT'S ALRIIIGHT THEY TOOOLD YOU WHAT TO DREEEEEEAM!!!!!!

🤣sawzall the C off. What a hack!

I am heading to Breton. I want the coords/location of that cliff camp stay you posted. It was before you got to Meat Cove.

Nice vice , i grew up in Meriden CT , its pronounced mary den . That vice will be that last one you'll need

I was looking for something exactly like this for mine, thanks! Love your products too 💪🏼 Do you think you’ll provide us more details about this build?

What size do you drill it out to

You can also just drill the XJ fitting to 3/16s on your stock pump and get that lighter steering and all while saving saving ton of money and hassle by doing this swap. Learned the hard way cause I did this swap and had a pump that didn’t quite work right. Would whine at acceleration and grind at lock. Save your money and time, just don’t do this swap

Thank you for the thorough video. Put my mind at ease about tackling my axle build.

Hey where was that spot that you camped at by the water ?

Do you plan on making a video for the standard non rivnut install?

looks good

Looking to this this exact thing with this exact tire carrier. Can you link to what you used? What keeps the steel cable in place on the carrier side so that it won't slide around.

Woah! Such a Quick Install!

Hey guy's im in nh would love to do a similar trip in may where are you from would to talk details if possible

Try the Trans Wisconsin Adventure Trail aka the TWAT 😂

had the same experience with the red rustoleum. Prepped the metal with acetone, 2 coats of primer and was tacky and semi wet even after about a day and a half of drying. It might have been the humidity. But I did end up hitting it with a clear top coat and that made it a lot harder and more durable.

Great vid! Would you guys ever wanna do build breakdowns for the XJs? I'm a fiend for getting new ideas for interior mods lol and you guys have some pretty interesting set ups I'd love to know more about.

Can’t wait to get out again with you folks, always a great time!

great job!

Is there a group to go on runs?

Looks like a fun time. Do you have details on the drawer and/or storage setups in the back of the XJs?

I’ve got an 88 Cherokee and am doing this swap now and have found out the pressure valve adapters are not the same diameter and tread and the XJ pressure hose adapter will not thread into and tighten down. I’m going to have to go to a hydraulic hose shop an$ have a hose made to fit.

I bought that same table and couldn’t figure out the hardware. The only thing i new how to use are the holding clamps.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i tried to figure out just like you did but didn’t get anywhere . Ived searched all over you tube and cant find a simple explanation what some of the hardware is for. And i went and bought another one.😂😂😂. Same instruction, got no where.

What locking hub kit did you use with the WJ knuckles?

I’m in this process right now and have watched this video several times. I have a HP Dana 30 as well and went with the Powertrax Grip Pro LSD. I toyed with the idea of going all out with the sleeves and truss but for now re-gear and LSD with new wheel hubs will do, can always come later now that the hard stuff (getting old hubs off!) is done and add that stuff. Great video, thanks for all the details. I’m at 4 tries on getting the right pattern.

Great Video!

You...have...no...idea how lucky you are! On my Parker, everything was a struggle but those jaw pins did not want to come out. I broke a Sterrett and it almost broke my will. You have a great piece and in wonderful shape. Enjoy it!

The LARES pump does not work for this swap anymore. The thread on the high-pressure fitting is too large for the fitting you take off the XJ pump.

I have a 49x that is getting restored looks like 1906 on the side.

Very informative video, love how your dog made himself right at home in front of the camera! LOL

Congratulations on a job very well done.. Hope it runs as good as it looks.

Thank You for all your hard work putting this great video together..

Excellent video, edit, and build!

What sort of issues were you having? I'm getting mixed information on doing this upgrade.

how are you liking the power trax no slip? thinking about one for my TJ

Looks awesome!

They are $200 now

I know it's a three year old video, but I have to point out some errors. The axle is suspended by parallel links. So as the suspension extends the pinion does not stay pointed at the transfer case. It drops vertically and keeps the same pinion angle relative to the frame. Vibration is caused by a disparity in the angle correction given by the U joints at each end of the driveshaft. 'Aiming' the pinion at the transfer case causes the problem. Lowering the transfer case will help with driveshaft deflection angles. The rotation caused by lift kits is due to engineering mistakes in the less expensive kits. It can be corrected with adjustable links. When the lift goes beyond 4" it is time to go to long arms. Not because of pinion angle, rather to keep the front axle from swinging back towards the middle of the vehicle.

I think it should definitely be noted that this won't work for ALL XJ's. Renix has a different bracket and mounts very slightly different. Bolts are different. Can't bolt on and didn't realize until I tried to put it on. Was mislead it would work.

Is this a hp Dana 30? Will work with low pinion?

Good and useful review. Regarding clamping the round tube between standoffs, I wouldn't do that as it would bend the tube down there, and make the ends go up.

Got to be a lot of work cut and weld the C ‘s yet you don’t have to worry about the drive shaft angles to transfer case. Set your camber only once. Buy longer saw all blades will help. Preheat both pcs with a good rosebud, torch set up get about 450 degrees, weld it and wrap up the weld area with a asbestos blanket it’s not the same kind of asbestos. Where you have to worry about any fibers getting into your lungs. Slow cool down is the best welding cast steel. If it’s cast iron use a high nickel compound welding wire or a stainless steel wire using argon gas. Other wise you can get weld rejection, cracks, holes within the weld.

Fyi if your power steering pump tenisons the engine belt you can't do any of this swap it will not fit in the brackets

👍👍👍

Wow, you could be a teacher with the way you explain things, even with the camera fails and missing footage this is super well done, I'm preparing to regear a tj dana 30 and will use your video as reference to keep me centered, Toyota gears are way easier to build and I have done a lot of them, I hope I can get through this without screwing it up

Should have pulled the ball joints and measured from the ball joint bores and you could have had reliable measurements.

Great video, building up courage to take on a regear for the first time and this really has helped.

Looks great! Can u tell me the cutting board latches please. Want the same set up for my carrier. Cheers from oz!
