    8.8 Rearend questions

    I'm thinking about using an 8.8 in my 98 Jeep Wrangler in place of the Dana 35. The Jeep folks point to the Explorer/Mountaineer setup from 97-99 as a good one. Does anyone know if ALL of those rearends have disc brakes? Also, do all of the 3.73 rearends have traction lok? thanks.

    Need a quick tranny overview

    Yes, I searched and found gobs of threads but none quite specific to the info that I'm looking for. What I need is a quick (if possible) overview of manual trannys that are compatible with a 5.0. A couple of my buddies are on the verge of buying an old Torino to fix up as a weekend rod. No...

    Extending the O2 harness on a 2004 GT

    I bought some MIL eliminators (the kind you splice in) for my new off road H and in the instructions it says not to mess with the 2 white wires. I understand that for the splice job of adding MILs but when I extend the harness, I obviously have to cut them. My guess is that I need to be very...

    13" Antenna

    I really don't need that king kong antenna on the front of my car that Detroit was so nice to supply. I have seen a 13" over at Mustang Tuning .com for $27 but wondered if it was as effective as the factory skyscraper. Also, is there a better place to buy this thing without paying a pile for...
