You said you were currently at 5 degrees on your pinion angle, is there a maximum tolerable degree or is it all up to if you get vibrations?
@xj_overlander
@xj_overlander 5 ай бұрын
I’ve found you can get away with about 8° on the pinion, assuming you have a SYE. But it’s probably more of a case by case situation. Ideally for a SYE, 2° for leaf setups or 0° for coil setups is where ya want to be.

Well if you feel a steering wheel shimmy, maybe. But if you’re talking about the entire jeep vibrating, it’s more likely your driveshaft. Check the quality of your u joints, and also check your pinion angle, especially if you’re lifted and don’t have a SYE

Thanks for your insight. The Fan clutch in my Comanche actually works as the one you reviewed here. You can floor the pedal to the metal and the fan does rev instantly. The idle temperature cannot be controlled by the main fan at all. This metal fan only covers half of the radiator area. That's why is so important to ensure that the electric fan works properly. Since my jeep has a Jeep ZJ PCM, an temperature switch was installed on the lower coolant hose to activate the electric fan relay.

It’s kinda hit or miss with me. It’s a great jeep. But it’s also just got so much overlap with my XJ that I’d rather drive the jeep that drives nicer, has more power, and is more capable. That said, it’s unbeatable for a summer rig! I am looking to sell it though, have too much projects. It just crossed over 120k miles too.

Only reason I can imagine why that would happen is if your motor mounts were worn out, used the wrong clutch, or maybe a loose fan shroud? Not saying it’s not possible, but I’ve ran one for over 6 months without an issue. And can speak for others too

So the interesting thing about this is that I tried that after this video and I pulled leafs until it was remotely spring like. I’ve done this on my XJ too. Issue was that it would axle wrap like no one’s business, even with the 8.8 anti wrap perches. Putting leafs back in until it stopped with the bad axle wrap essentially put it back in a super stiff place. So not worthwhile in my case. At this point, I’m fine just throwing better leafs at it

@xj_overlander

So this issue with this is that I never took a video of this. It requires me buying new pedals. So its not really in the plans at the moment unless I come across some for cheap. It’s pretty simple though. I just cut the pedals at the bends and then slowly trimmed down the three pieces until they matched the profile of the XJ brake pedal. Then welded together. Swap the XJ brake pedal bracket in with the TJ clutch bracket and you’re set!

Right on! My brother said he believes it was a 2004 turbo edition. He noted that the turbo edition had different seats. Also noted that you just unbolt the PT cruiser seat rails and bolt on the YJ rails to the seat and it’s set. Rides a little tall though. My thighs are right up against the wheels and I’m not that big of a guy. I’d recommend shortening the seat by a couple inches if possible.

I did notice some. Jeep sounds like a dump truck but it was a little noticeable. But you'll be hard pressed to find a better fan setup. I've been in the sand driving really hard and never went over 200⁰ I think it's worth the experiment. I opt to swap the ZJ fan clutch in during hot summer months and put the XJ one back in for any other time. It's a good tradeoff
