    How 'bad' is it to use the transfer case for front-wheel-drive?

    Just to muddy the waters further, I think tc's that use a viscuous coupler (like a clutch) can be damaged in fwd only mode. My plain jane 231 with sye has been run that way several times with no issues.

    What size tire are you running?

    Thanks for playing guys. I suspected the majority would be in the 32-33 range. I am suprised at the number of 37 plus. In 1990 my Ford on 33s was the biggest thing in town :)

    Leaf Springs in rear of TJ

    I've seen 2. One was on Xj springs with about a 6" stretch to the stock wheelbase. It was a comp rig and did very well. Some TJs get kind of a slinky effect going, making the body lean way over. I think the leaves would help with that but there are probably better ways. By the time you...

    What size tire are you running?

    We've had several threads lately which have gotten into the topic of ideal tire size. I'm curious what people are using. What do you have on your offroad, overland, trail, or expedition vehicle? You metric guys please estimate in inches.

    Roll cages, your views

    I would add that cages aren't just for rockcrawlers, I've been in 2 rollovers offroad, neither were expected. It is very reassuring to be well belted and surrounded by tube when you are in a precarious spot. This isn't the vehicle type in question but this style internal is very livable. I...

    Hand Tools: The highest quality/value

    I have an SK 1/2" socket set that was my grandfathers, it's at least 50 years old and the quality matches the new craftsman stuff. I don't know how the new SK stuff is but, I think Craftsman has the best availibility and price. The quality is good enough for me.

    grease fitting plug/blank?

    This is a tom woods shaft that was machined for greater angle. It came with fittings in the caps, I rebuilt it with a fitting in the cross joint and promptly mashed it. If there's a chance I put it in wrong, then I propably did:) Thanks for the links guys, I am going to order the flush...
