the ZR5 typically had 235 75 r15 tires and less lift as well as bed rails, a roof rack, and most I've seen had special wheels. They do however sit at the same height and wheelbase as a regular 4 door s10. the ZR2 had 31 10.5 r15 tires and a factory lift as well as a larger rear, limited slip...

Round nose s10s were intoduced in 94 with square halogen headlights. The nose you have was introduced in 98 and carried to 04. The core support, headlights, grille, and hood latch should match from 98-04. They are the same on s10s blazers and zr2s. The fenders and hood should match from 94-04...

Going to do a short write up on the headlight switch on an XJ since when I went looking for a pinout, all I could find is oppinins not answers. This will cover a 96 for sure, however it was different from my 92 so I'm not sure what years it's compatible with. First thing is the problem. Driving...

ENGINE MODS!!!!! Finally got to start swapping over some of my engine mods the other night. Late model intake manifold, 4 port injectors (no, not mustang), wrapped the header down to the collector, replaced the PCV, and eliminated the mechanical fan. Made a world of difference, but still need a...

The ballast resistor cuts the voltage down to the fuel pump once the engine is running more or less to make it quieter. As for your issue, you have either a stuck injector (open) or potentially a bad ground to the pump which is limiting the response of the pump to the ignition. The ground in...

Hood spacers, homebrew cowl induction, a few interior changes, and a Cherry Bomb M80 with a homebrew 3 inch tailpipe. <<<<Unless you love the deep drone rattling your brain everywhere you go, just don't. The extra back pressure definately helped with some of the power issue since somewhere one...

I can vouch for the Jeep XJ. Parts are readily available and for a base they are near bulletproof.

Really thinking I need to get a camera or just go back to a smartphone.... Hit some trails yesterday for the maiden voyage, and really found out a lot about this rig. Time for some belly armor, axles and steering from my other rig, sway bar deletes, and more power... All of my off road toys have...

Updates!! Swapped in my old back window, and added some lights.

Be great to make contact.

Anyone near the middle of the NY/PA border? I see a bunch on the map, but seems like a bunch of inactive members...

NEW BUMPER!!! I tossed my old bumper on and decided it didn't fit this build. I proceeded to order a DIY kit and built that. The frame stiffener plates it came with are bolt on which seems senseless to me, so I cut the ends off to use as shims since the bumper was designed to have that extra...

PM'd you. Also in upstate NY. Depending on your location, I have spent hours driving and proofing trails that are on maps from the 70's and surprisingly, there are still some in existence. Given some are an overglorified dirt road, but some are serious trails.

Anyone in the area interested? Broome-Tioga Sports Center

My 96 XJ "Sally" , my wife's 98 TJ, and my old rig "Maxxine" (Left to right)

THE FIRST UPDATE Lucky for y'all you get to watch this one from the beginning! Due to living in the salt belt, everything is getting undercoating on, behind, under, everything... First mods are swapping the fenders, grille parts, and intake duct from Max. This one has 3.07 gears, so until I swap...

I had this build tacked on to my last build, however I feel like it was confusing... Got a new rig to build up, mostly with parts and pieces of my old one, which was made up of parts and pieces of other old ones.

Well in a recent turn of events, I bought another XJ that all of these parts are going on. Found a lot of rot during this build and it's honestly not feasible for me to continue it. So after all that, the new one will essentially be the seed of Maxxine. Sounds like a horror movie... Meet...
