is there a vent on the gas tank? I'm sure there is but I have no clue where it would be.[/QUOTE

if said tank has only a single fuel line & no other fittings then it must have a vented cap
if it has two fuel lines AKA supply & return then in can use a vented cap but most prob has some kind of vac vent system.
to help in locating vent need the following .

?#1 what kinda gas tank

?#2 is it on a vehicle or some kind of equipment

?#3 what is the appx age of #1 or #2

Not sure the layout on the 81 Corey the 77 & 78 models have a vent system that flows through the charcoal canister. Also has a little plastic coil vent right above the gas tank filler on pass side. My 70 had a vented camp and no charcoal system. I'll look to see what else I can find.

Albert,

Here is a link to the website where I ordered my pressure switch. They have all kinds of off-road stuff but this link will take you to the air accessories page.

Check Valves, Blow Off Valve, Circuit Breakers, Pressure Switch, Portable Air Compressors, Air Compressor Accessories



The link to their homepage is:

4wd Parts, 4x4 Parts, 4x4 Off-road Accessories, Jeep Accessories, Jeep Wrangler Accessories, Jeep Stuff, Jeep Parts And Accessories, Jeep Truck Accessories

[raevenzero]

I have searched but have not had much success in locating a 5:28 ring and pinion re-gear for a 97 FZJ-80. Does anyone know who sells the best set out there? Thanks.

Go to 80 tech and to search, type regear, you'll get all kinda threads.

It would be a 5:29, don't go with the Sierra's I have.


Slee has Nitro but only go up to 4:88's
Slee - Drivetrain - Gears and Lockers

TPI sell the Precision
TPI4x4

Thanks Larry. Maybe that is why I couldn't find them. 5.28 doesn't compute.

Not sure on that one but as Albert puts it everything is Doable you would want to weld in some reinforcement metal on the inside of the rear quarters so when you bolted it up it wouldn't peel back the metal on the trails. I thought about doing the same with a factory 80 carrier but I need the bumper carrier for the extra stuff.

 

[raevenzero]

Yeah, I was thinking it should work with some fab work. I almost expected someone to come back with a reason why it was impossible.
