Some metallic paints will mess with the swr reading. You are making sure to check the swr with all the doors closed. This will affect it also.

The PO got 145k out of the first BA-10/5.. I've gotten 125k out of this one and I'm still not having any sort of shifting issues with it. It really is about how they are/were cared for.

Congrats to your friend... First, Are they reliable.... No more or less than any other 20 plus year old vehicle equipped with 50 plus year old technology.... But they are WAYYYYY cooler than most of the others. Wagonmasters is the company in CA that refurbs them. They are extremely picky...

I had a pair of 76 DJ-5D's.... 232 with a TF auto tranny. Both were 2wd's. Most of them in the lower 48 states were 2wd. If you found an Alaskan model, it could be the much larger World Cab models. Those were based on a CJ-6 frame. One of the best thing about the DJ's... all those mirror...

Its going to remain a DD for now, so its either 2" and 30's or 3" and 31's. I don't want to deal with some of the reliablity issues with going larger.. Also its most likely going to stay on AT's. I really liked the BFG's and Bridgestones I had in the past... I like the full-time 4wd system...

Hello Jeep folks.... I followed Travis and a bunch of NAXJA folks here, and I really love some of the things I see here. Now that I am finishing the build of Midwest trail runner Jeep. I'm looking for someway to rescue my 94 ZJ from ending its life as a beat down DD. The expedition vehicle...

Will CA even allow something as evil as a diesel into a vehicle in their precious state of denial????
