    Relocating air conditioner

    I'm not sure if anybody has done this honestly. I have seen somebody relocated the ac compressor to where the alternator is to run a high mount alternator but that doesn't really help you unfortunately. The only thing I can think to do is find all the RHD brackets and see how they fit and just...

    Oh and make sure to use your 94 output speed sensor.

    Newer aw4 in older jeep

    I did this in my renix. I put a 2000 trans in it. It's not hard to make it work, the only real hard part is swapping the speed sensor gear in the trans. Basically you drop the pan and swap the wiring harness from the 94 into the 2001 trans (it's all plug and play but the connectors are different...

    Steering Play tightens up when warm

    Yeah its a generic parts reman, it has done this on a few different boxes, both xj and durango boxes and I have used these ones on other jeeps with success, doesn't really mean anything though. I used to work in parts and yeah a lot of the generic stuff sucks out of the box. The lares I have...

    Steering Play tightens up when warm

    It's an older 6-6.5" Rusty's long arm with 35" general grabber x2's. It has about somewhere around an 1/8 steering play when cold and slowly tightens up to where you would think it should be all the time. Just checked and the steering shaft turns immediately with the steering wheel, so whatever...

    Steering Play tightens up when warm

    I have an 87 XJ with the gm tilt steering column and have kind of strange issue. When its cold, it has a lot of play in it and is really annoying to drive but after driving it for a little bit, the steering tightens up and acts like a normal lifted vehicle gearbox steering. I have tried...

    AW4 Output Speed Sensor

    it has the dual plug tps for the auto on it and wired correctly. It shifts perfect at temp just not first thing in the morning or if its cold. Haven't messed with in a few days because I've been busy and haven't been driving it. Hopefully will get out there this week again and start messing with...

    AW4 Output Speed Sensor

    Ecomike, thats where things get interesting lol, its a 95 trans that I put in my 87 that was originally a manual with an ax15. TCM and all sensors are from renix era and I added the tcm and wiring out of a renix jeep from the junkyard. Crusier54 I know it is not external from the transmission...

    AW4 Output Speed Sensor

    The trans has all new fluid basically so while its still a little low I'm gonna add a good additive to it. I have a bad feeling about it but the trans was free so it's not the end of the world if it only last a few months lol. Ill see if I can get a reading with the tc in neutral with my meter...

    Renix A/C to newer style from 96

    I believe the ac hose themselves are not the same size as well as the drier and expansion valve if I remember correctly. Ive been curious about swapping everything from a newer set up in but finding the ac hoses can be tricky

    AW4 Output Speed Sensor

    Shifts manually just fine, fluid level I've been messing with for a bit. Just put the trans in so haven't gotten it prefect yet. This trans was in a buddy's jeep and did the same thing but we figured it was due to not having the input sensor since his is a 98. Tps is new, doesn't mean much but...

    AW4 Output Speed Sensor

    So the short story is my transmission is a 95 and it won't shift out of first gear without letting off after hitting 3k rpm until its warm. And if its really cold it won't shift out of first at all. My solenoids ohm at 11-12 cold across the board so I think those are ok. I've been trying to find...
