Picked up a 90 YJ for a Winter Rig.. its amazing.
Lookin into makin her an off road Beaut, Any big suggestions? its a 4.2 6cyl. Carbed. with 35x245x15 BFG's ( I think ) a 2" Suspension Lift and 4" Body Lift, and Wheel Spacers.
Looking into an exhaust and intake. and Any other helpful hints.
FIRST thing is first... Get rid of that retarded and dangerous body lift and if you want to keep the 35's you're going to need to lift it properly, which means spending probably $2000 for all the right parts, plus anything that needs replaced in the process. (Grease, tools, brakes, fluids, etc.) Do your homework and pick a good complete lift kit and ditch the transfer case drop, because the right way to lift a Jeep is to get a slip yoke eliminator and a CV style driveshaft. Good luck!
And also since you have a 4.2, if you're looking to do some upgrades to bring the 4.2 up to date, look into the TeamRush and Nutter upgrades (google) and do them. And maybe a good carb like a Holley 2bbl. With some light modification & elbow grease you can use a couple choice 4.0L parts to either convert the 4.2 to EFI or retain the carb and get a major kick in the pants by using the 4.0 head on the 4.2. I would fix things before changing anything else. You may need to change gears!
hey man i own this jeep now i just traded my 1997 f250 for it from some guy out of connicute. IM possitve its this jeep because all the recripts i found in the glove box match up to you

How do you like that Posi- Lok? I'm really considering getting one. I had my vacuume blow out on me in the middle of a mud pit in my YJ. How do they work? Do you engage it then put your rig in 4x4 drive? Or the other way around? Did you install it yourself too? Just been curious.
WOW! That is one kick-ass Jeep, bro! I wish I didn't live in a desert so I could do somethin like this. Great car. I loved the shots of it comin up the river.
Ok i have a 2.5L and it has a 4 inch suspension lift, 2 inch shackle lift, and a 3 inch body lift air raid cold air intake, performance chip, and throttle body spacer, recently placed a hydrogen generator on it. So i was wondering how the tfx exhausts work with sound and performance. Thanks
The TFX was good, little more power, nothing to write home about though...you can hear it in this vid. My biggest problem was that I had stock axles/gearing...that was going to be my next thing but I sold it...tired of the carb...I am thinking of ordering a JK (2 dr) with the 3.73's(only a $50.00 option, no brainer over the 3.21 crap) and going 3" lift w/34x12.5x15 Swamper TRXUS...if I had another $10K to burn, I would get a Rubicon...
Very nice video, looks like a great place to off road!

@8DrugFreeBoy8 The Posi lok is a must! I had it installed with the lift, they have them for lifted and non lifted. Engage it, then put in in 4wd.

How do you like the 4.2? I have been looking at YJs but avoiding the 4.2s and 2.5s.
robertdihno 2 years ago
Mine had the 258 w/carb...go for 91 or newer with EFI if you must go for a YJ...if you don't want the YJ for the leaf springs, go for a TJ!

Thanks, here are the upgrades: 6 CYL, WEBER CARB, K&N AIR FILTER, TFX PERFORMANCE EXHAUST, POSI LOK, 4" SUSPENSION LIFT, 1.5" HD SHACKLES, 2" BODY LIFT, 35X12.5X15 SST DISCOVERER TIRES, CRAGAR 15X8 WHEELS AND DISCONNECTS.
