@@tonypellegrino5598 I've been looking for years now, lol. I'm guessing being an industry insider has some perks. You got some awesome products. Wish you had a little sale on TJ items every now and then! I'm trying to save up for front fender kit.
Got one for $400 with disc brakes 🥲 had to change the wheel bearings and installed a nonslip locker, came with the same gear ratio as in front 3.73, it me took like 2 years to find.
A yj for 3k is only able to be found in certain zip codes, some will be rusted to crap, the seats alone are $1500 shipped. The budget of $10k for all of that is not realistic unless you have a shop, tools, experience with gear setups or patience, and live in Cali where you can pick up parts from the manufacturer on scratch and dent. Labor for a locker install is $750+ alone most places. I’m super jealous of the deals that can be had in SoCal
As the guy who is synonymous with cheap crawling I have to say cudos to GR and Tony for going off script and building a cheap Jeep. Great idea and I haven't even watched the whole video yet.
The NP 231 T-case used with the Dana 30 CAD did not have a "true neutral". When the passenger side axel is replaced with the one piece axel it will cause driveshaft wind up when flat towing with the T-case in neutral. the only time the front and rear driveshafts are dicsonnected from each other is in two high. This can be fixed by replacing the YJ selector cam in the T-case with one from a TJ. Do this and you'll have a "true neutral". I flat tow mine with the solid passenger side axel, and the TJ selector cam with the T-case in neutral, and the transmission in 5th gear.
Right on. Nice to see the mighty YJ gettin some love. Mine's a 95 with the 4.0L with 275000 kilometers on the odo. If that motor ever gives up the ghost I'm sticking another one right back in there.
Following this for sure. Tony, can you guys post up the build sheet and GenRight parts that are planned here? I am building a YJ is Sweden now, so really digging the ideas!
Tony, that YJ most likely came with the Peugeot BA10/5 transmission. It's an absolute terrible transmission. If that is in there, it needs to go because it would be even worse than leaving the Dana 35 rear axle in the Jeep. The trans internals will likely break and the internal slave cylinder will leak and ruin the clutch. Also it probably has the 21 spline output going into the transfer case instead of the 23 spline. Can't wait to see how the rest of the build goes. Thanks for the videos!
I have the Peugeot trans in my '89 and its holding up great. As long as you match your axles gear ratio to the tire size (don't half ass things and put huge tires on with stock gears) the trans won't be taking on extra, unnecessary stress
@@fxrsniper1That's probably not really stressing the trans but you can always hack and tap that mofo. It's not quite as strong but unless you're putting a stronger motor in you don't really "need" the larger output shaft
My brother just bought a 1995 YJ that is stock as a rock. I have big plans for his wallet and my elbow grease. We’re hooked on your channel. The subscribe button is smashed and the likes see no merci. Much love from Texas ✌️
Great video! Can’t wait to see how this turns out. I have a 1987 yj With a bunch of your guys parts on it. Gen right always carries a good product. After watching this video I went ahead and ordered an AGR gearbox and pump for my Jeep. And now this is becoming a great experience for me because it’s been over a month and they say they’re going to ship it, and give you a tracking number and I still don’t see it I see in the comments that you’ve been dealing with them since 1999 maybe you can give a shout out to them and get my stuff sent to me lol thanks Thanks
Hi Tony, building a CJ7 with my son who turns 16 in a month. Looking forward to this build which is in line with our budget. How about Seismic for the name? And are you planning on any castor correction? And if so, how?
Hi, glad to hear you are getting your son into a Jeep! Thanks for the name suggestion, but we have decided on the name Foreshock. Castor will be corrected with a small shim on each side.
What do you think about putting in a snorkel and breathers on the axles as well as upgrading the engine from a 4.0 to a 4.7 stroker. Is it worth it if your building an all purpose street and trails YJ 4x4. Also what size gear axle would you recommend for the front axle? UNDER DOG would be a good nickname for the YJ.
I had a jeep back 6 years ago, it was a built crawler, I had to sell it due to medical reason to survive. I just bought an 89 yj no motor, tranny or transfer case. First I'm dropping in a dodge 318, 42E and NP205 twin stick and up the jeep TJ axles. I looked at your online catalog, do you sell complete kits anymore?
Tony is working on frames made for different models. We currently have the YJ frame available now on our website.

How hard will it be for me to swap a 2.5 for a 250 inline 6 cylinder I think I'd like to change my ax 5 to a ax15 wonder how hard it's gonna be and what I have to buy?
Boy, I could kick myself. I paid way too much for a naturally aspirated 88 YJ Sahara trim. the interior is almost perfect, but the paint is pretty rough. Inline 6 .runs out great. I bought it to resell but, I like it and have driven it some but it's sat allot. I'm driving it now though. I paid too much for it I feel because they're rare where I live. My issue is that I doubt I can get out of it what I paid for it. I might have to take a hit. So, I'm considering building it instead of selling it but, I'd rather have the money back out of it. I'm driving a 91 YJ that I've built. I just need to get gears, lockers and axles for it and it will be 99% finished. This encourages me that I don't have "Just empty every pocket" to have a decent rig.
Why do you keep promoting AGR, they are terrible, have been told parts on the shelf, will ship today...Months later and BS, finally got my money back, I am not the first person to experience this.
How to spend every dime in your pocket on stuff you can either build yourself or find at similar companies for half the price, keep your high prices and political opinions out that way.
A Super35 is more than capable of running the Rubicon, URE with a 37x12.50 built with all Yukon upper end components & 4.88 gears coupled with welded axle tubes and a truss. Wilwood makes a big disc brake conversation kit for the D35 and a kit for the front 30 as well. I understand building this rear differential doesn’t fit in to your budget build but the internet myths of the 35 being super weak is complete bullshit from people who abused it in stock form trying to drag race over rocks and do burn outs with big mud tires & V8 The 44 isn’t that much stronger than a 35… you can break it just as easily. Plenty of people out here wheeling the D35 hard and still going.
Definition of a YJ.. GANGSTER, OUTLAW, BLACK SHEEP. , NOT A TRAILER QUEEN.. RAW. ETC... In my opinion you chose the YJ cause it's just GANGSTER! I'm doing a 92 with a 572 BB. That's how we do it in Texas..love the project that your doing though..

see my response above
Yeah, doing it cheap does involve some tools and know how. I was also collecting parts over the past couple years knowing someday I'd be doing this.
YJ's in California are least 7K, and that's for a 2.5 .
A fuel injected wrangler with a hard top and hard doors for $3K is a killer deal, even with the rust

Yj are the best
Good platform and under valued (good buy).

It would be a good idea the strokers have actually gotten better mileage and you get the extra power and torque
