motomaniac's 97GC build

[K2ZJ]

Check the parts store first, they have a few tanks in multiple sizes and configurations. Do a custom intake and you will have room right by the radiator.

I have some room between the York and inner fender wall that I will utilize for the overflow. But if that doesn't pan out I may look into a custom intake.

How did I miss this thread?

Nice ZJ you have going there, i'll have to keep up with it for idears!

Big thanks to everyone for comments on my jeep. It's a very fun project and it still has a long way to go.
Overland your xj was awesome I can't wait to see what you come up with for the zj.

This allowed me to push the rear axle back and dial in my pinion angle.

You running an SYE?

Any chance you have the upper/lower length's written down?

I have the old XJ's rear axle about ready to swap in mine, need to install the new axleshaft bearings/seals. Then get my SYE'd 242 in after an input swap. Then hopefully it's ready for the interstate.

I don't have the length written Down. No sye havent needed one. I have no odd vibs under hard accel decel or constant speed I cruse the interstate between 60-70 mph. I will be pulling the front axle out to put in the gears in the next week I will try to remember to get a measurement on the rear arms.
