Greetings to all,

This is my first post here so if there has been FAQ wrote on this subject let me know.

Now for the questions. What are some major problems for my Wrangler that I may encounter? I've had some pretty bad carb problems (4.2L 2B Carb) that never seem to go away which I'm told is a commom problem. Any problems with Transmission or Transfer Case? Other problems I should know about? Just replaced the shocks with some Rancho RS9000. Would like you guys to give me some ideas of how to improve engine preformance with the engine I have (if possible). Thanks for any ideas you may have!

check out www.cliffordperformance.com (http://www.cliffordperformance.com)

Do a search on this site for the motorcraft carb swap, lots of good info.

Other than that, what else do you want to do? Lift? Tires? Axles? These guys know everything, welcome and ask away!

if you go looking for a used/rebuilt carb be absolutly sure that there is no play in the throttle shafts. eventually they (the shaft holes)get worn bigger and the jeep will run like crap... been there a few times till i got it right.

H.A.R.M., Welcome http://forums.jeepsunlimited.com/ubb/smile.gif !

May I suggest throw the carb in the dumpster and inject it! You will love it in the long run.

Get ready for a major drain on your bank account. Once this Jeep thing gets rolling, there is no stopping it.

Good luck and Keep on Jeepin'.
