ARB Lockers/Gears in a Dana 30/35 Cherokee XJ
How can my sleeper Cherokee with a baby 3.5" lift and tiny 31" tires keep up with the "real" Jeeps? My Secret Weapons are my two ARB differential lockers, front and rear. With two lockers, I go where everyone else goes. I'm dragging and scraping to be sure, but I get there! |

Pieces & Parts Electrical Wiring up a Willys CJ-2A is no simple matter. I had two stock wiring harnesses and both were beyond recovery. The cloth insulation on the wires just doesn't last 50 years or more. I recently parted out a rolled '77 CJ-7, so I decided to use the wiring harness from the CJ-7 on the Willys. It worked pretty well and saved lots of time and money. |

Pieces & Parts Steering II When I swapped a 4.3L Chevy V6 in to replace the 3.8L Buick V6, I had to rework the intermediate shaft. The Chevy engine mounts are in the middle where as the Buick mounts are in the front of the engine. The only way I could clear the engine mount was with a three u-joint intermediate shaft from Borgeson. |

Pieces & Parts Brakes The stock brakes on a CJ-2A are frightening by modern day standards. They use a single cylinder master cylinder that has no redundancy and small drums all around. I wanted to have a dual cylinder master cylinder and disk brakes up front. I also wanted power brakes because I was planning on running an automatic transmission. |

Sierra Trek 2001
Meadow Lake, California- Once again, the California Association of 4Wheel Drive Clubs and the hundreds of volunteers and committee members put on one heck of an event. As in years past, people from all across the United States made the "trek" to Meadow Lake, California for the 35th Annual Sierra Trek. For those that have never attended Trek, this event is one of the largest events in California. It's three days of some of the best 4wheeling around. From mild and scenic tours through historic areas around Meadow Lake to the rugged and challenging short wheelbase (SWB) route over the Fordyce Creek trail. |
