So i finished all my little fixes on the 92 sport. Now im having a few problems.

1. The Battery shows 12v when driving and only 10v when i kick the a/c on???

2. Oil pressure is at 20 when stopped then when i start going it raises to 40 then when i get to a steady speed over 40mph it goes back to about 30ish???

3. When i shut the jeep off there sounds like its ticking from the bottom part of the engine more on the drivers side???
 
Your not charging or not charging enough. Check with a voltmeter at the battery terminals--should read about 12.5 volts static, and 13~14.5 volts with the engine running.

Put a mechanical oil pressure gauge on it to determine actual pressures. If you have any high pressure leaks--at the OFA or sending unit--that will cause lower pressure readings. There are reported issues of low oil pressure readings with cheap oil filters--what brand are you currently running?

You will need to be more specific on the sound. Get a 3' piece of vinyl tubing, 1/2" or less I.D., stick one end in your ear and then move the other end around the engine compartment to "isolate" the sound. Internal combustion engines will "tick" when cooling down.
