Re: Re: Advice please: '90 YJ Conversion
Bill,
That's a great video that I've seen a few times. I understand your point,
but to someone less understanding, that could come across 'insulting'. I
really dont give a rat's ***, but do you think comments like that could be
part of the reason for the trouble you've been getting?
The fact of the matter remains that properly geared, the 2.5L provides
adequate power off road while in low range.

Re: Re: Advice please: '90 YJ Conversion
Hi Carl,
That's why I corrected your post. You might actually mislead someone
into buying a four banger. They're great for hauling around a Volkswagen,
but put a transfer case in it and could get out of it's own way, let alone
go off-road.

Re: Re: Advice please: '90 YJ Conversion
Bill,
I suppose we have to agree to disagree here. I was very pleased with the
2.5L's performance in my 89 YJ, sprung over on 33's with 4.10 gearing.
Highway included, I was not dissapointed. Drive it like a Jeep, not a sports
car.
