    97+ fuel tank & pump/sending unit in a 96?

    Not entirely an XJ, but I'm not having much luck on the MJ side. Has anyone tried running a 97+ tank and pump in a 96? Theoretically it should work as the 96 and 97 are pretty close mechanically and emissions. I have (most of) a 1989 2WD MJ which me and my step son are going to build as his...

    MAKE AN OFFER!! Will entertain reasonable offers! Can also meet near Richmond IN for potential buyers I got a new car in December and the Jeep has sat for the last 3 months, only getting driven around the block to move it out of my way. Priorities have changed, and I've decided to get rid of...

    Options for tranny cooler replacement lines?

    So I had to replace the upper trans cooler line when I replaced the water pump this weekend, it kinked when I tried to remove it from the radiator, replaced with new Dorman lines. On the way to work yesterday(about half way/45 min from work/home), the quick connect right by the harmonic balancer...

    Project: "Pretty Woman"

    Because a few people have treat her like a dirty hooker, but she cleans up well. The guys I bought this off of were nimrods, I'm sure this truck was in rough shape when they bought it, but they definitely trashed this truck. It has apparently sat for close to 15 years(plates expired in...

    96 Sport no start, CPS?

    96 4.0, won't start(starter does nothing), I've got good power, can hear the fuel pump kick on when I put the key in run, nothing in neutral either. Starter, ignition switch, NSS have all been replaced within the last 3 years or so, but CPS is still stock to my knowledge. Check engine light...

    235/60R15 or 255/60R15? BFG Radial T/A or Cooper Cobra?

    I'm looking at tires for my 89 MJ. It will be lowered a little bit(proportionate to tire size). I'm going for more of a driver, more along the old SCCA trucks, something fun to take on drives on windy country roads. But I have no idea what size will look good on a 15x8 wheel, 3.75" backspace...

    Alternator upgrade 89 2.5L?

    Stock is a pathetic 74 amps, I'm not looking for much, it's an 89 MJ so it doesn't require much, just going to do a few upgrades in the cooling, and stereo and want to make sure there won't be any starvation issues. Are there any near direct swap/upgrades like the 5.9 alternator I swapped on my...

    The Stray

    Not sure how it happened, but somehow I ended up with my buddies Craigslist find. 89 Sport Truck, 2.5L, AX4 4 speed, 2wd, power steering, no AC, 348k, Jasper engine somewhere around 300k.

    89 2.5L erg to non-egr intake manifold swap?

    Is it doable? I know on the RENIX to HO it is a lot harder, but what about the 2.5L? It looks like the Dorman exhaust manifold and head are compatible across both, but the intake manifold is the biggest difference. How interchangeable are the throttle body's?

    Weird lighting problem after switching to LEDs

    I've recently switched all of my lighting over to LED(with the exception of headlights). I have the LED flasher relay so hyper flashing isn't the problem. My problem is when I hit my brakes(no lights on) the dash and front parking lights light up a little. With my parking/headlights on, the turn...

    P1493 after battery relocation, did run, now no fuel

    Ok so I relocated my battery to the back of the jeep, I saw the little "button" in the bottom of the battery box and had been under the impression this was a kill switch in case of a roll over and the battery fell out(guess I was wrong), so I wired them together and moved on. So the jeep got...

    Best place for emblems/front end hardware?

    Just picked up a new header panel from Classic 2 Current for my 96 Sport, and I didn't realize just how much extra hardware there is that they didn't include with it. I'm going to use the headlight adjuster buckets I have, just clean them up, But it's all the plastic clips that the grill screws...

    All metal radiator for 96 2.5L?

    Got a customer that had crap luck with the aluminum/plastic radiators, I'm trying to find him a all metal replacement for a decent price. It's not the standard short wide type that the 4.0L uses, the only thing I keep finding in google searches are the 4.0 radiators. Any leads?
