I didnt have any problems. Completely sealed, no leaks.

I was going to leave it on the jeep, but I had no way to get it welded without taking it off. Took it it to a local shop, guy spent 10 mins welding on it, dunked it in some cold water and I was off. I'm gonna get rid of the factory "crush" in the next couple weeks and replace it with a 2.25"...

So i decided to tackle the project again. 45 mins to tear it down including the cleaning of all surfaces, got the header welded up. 1 hour later no more leaking and a smooth idle. Finally no more issues

Well boys, at the middle of last week i made a print out of Cruisers common xj problems and fixes. I went through and cleaned every electric relay,ground, or sensor harness. I even used dielectric grease on all connections after cleaning. Checked all sensor grounds and engine grounds for...

1989 XJ limited 4.0 AW4 First off I've done a lot of research and I've probably invested countless hours trying to track down this problem. Upon start up idle goes to around 2000 rpm and immediately drops back down to around 1000 rpm. As the engine warms up for probably 30 seconds the idle goes...

I'll have to double check the wires but I remember setting it to 17%

Wiggling relays didn't effect anything

Throttle body cleaner in all every area of throttle body, even the area where the iac sits. Used a cloth to scrub and sprayed it. Looks new. I can unplug the iac and no change in idle. You may be onto something. I'll check the relays after work

1989 xj, 4.0,aw4, and 117k I've been chasing down this high idle and slight miss for the longest time it seems. It started out with a leaky injector o ring. I've since replaced all of them, no fix. Things I've replaced since. cleaned throttle bottle and iac. Fuel pump Plugs,wire,and...

Cool factor, and a lot of effort to change springs and leafs.

I'll start out with a brief description of my rig. 1989 limited sport I belive D30 front end D35 rear with 3.55 gears. 6.5 rusty's short arm kit. (I know, I know, long arms or DB's) Jks quick discos Hd rusty's adjustable track bar Fixed short arms that are 16 5/8 LOWER and 16 upper. 33x12.50 mt...

I changed out the upper and lower control arm bushings, and let me tell you I almost had a stroke. The first set of uppers I got so frustrated with that I had to just quit and drink beer. Luckily after a good 10/12 hours of almost calling a mechanic that had a better way to press the bushings i...

6.5" lift with a 3 inch drop pitman arm

I went outside and double checked it. There is a spot where you can see the bolt seats on the mount. If there was movement in the bold wouldn't there be some shiny/clean metal around the head of the bolt where it moved?

Do you guys think i need a stock pitman arm or just something shorter than the current 3 inch drop?
