    Yaaaaay new CEL codes

    This damn thing loves to torment me. Got rid of my trans CEL codes but now I am pulling code p0118 on oriellys code puller and autozones is p0118 and p1898. I know the p0118 code is for the temp sensor. Unsure if it is for the one for the gauge or the one for the ecm. Do these jeeps...

    Transmission pan bolt stripped

    looks like someone cross threaded 3 bolts for my trans pan. Anyone know what size bolt is used in the pan? Was thinking maybe try a slightly longer bolt or if I am lucky use a long bolt and a nut on the other side but I can't remember now if that is possible on the aw4. It is in a 97 xj.

    My little red Duralast battery is crapping out on me and I'm wondering what the biggest battery (CCA wise) I can cram into my battery tray fairly easily is. It is a 97 XJ sport.

    I nave new re3.5" coil springs, longer fixed rough country lower control arms, and a re adjustable track bar (it is centered) all newly installed. My passenger side coil is rubbing pretty bad on the bumpstop mount. I have noticed the slots for adjustment in the frame side lower control arm...

    Transmission harness removal

    On the aw4 does anyone know how to actually disconnect the harness from transmission. The trans speed sensor was easy enough but there are other plugs that don't look like there is a way to disconnect. Just a rubber boot that pulls back and shows the stuff feeding into the trans.

    re3.5 coil spring stock track bar redril

    Just curious if anyone knows how far over I should redrill my track bar bracket to correct for the new re 3.5 coils I bought for my 97. I've read on other threads anywhere from 1/2"-1" and no one seems to remember for sure how far they moved it over. Also I can't seem to find a answer as to...

    1997 aw4 transmission harness intechange?

    Let's pretend my over harness thread doesn't exist right now. (I do still need that harness to to but it's not my issue). My question is if I go out to the upull yard and pull the harness for the transmission from a 96 will it work? Yards local to me have 96 and down xjs only. Turns out I've...

    Need a 1997 wiring harness p0720 P0700 codes

    Anyone know of a place to get one? Long story short the previous owner dropped the trans and tcase but didn't unhook all the senors and trashed the harness. It has been hacked together and pinched multiple times between the trans and fire wall while they did whatever they did. I'm 99% sure it...

    I know on larger lifts people will drill a new mount hole for the track bar but is it necessary for a budget boost using 2" coil spacers?

    RE 2.5" add a leaf...did i mess up?

    Got the add a leafs in the packs and back on my jeep. I did this in order to eliminate the lift block on the axle for the budget boost it is running. Rear end seems to sit higher and I have pretty much no shackle angle. They are straight up and down. I'm running factory shackles. I left the...

    1997 xj 242 to 231 driveshaft question.

    So I am fixing issues caused by the previous owner. One of the things they did was swap in a donor trans with a 231 case in place of the 242 after they blew it up. After some of the dumb things I've found on this jeep that they did I'm curious if they used the original driveshaft. Any of you...

    Cruise control shuts it self off.

    Started doing this last night. Driving down the highway at 60 cruise works fine then it suddenly shut off. Green light stays lit but it acts like I hit the brake to to kick it off. It did start working again after a few tries turning it off and back on but it has continued to randomly turn...

    Head scratcher I ran into last night.

    So I ran into something unusual while working on my xj last night and wish I had a camera going at the time cause of how odd it was, at least to me. I was doing the passenger side axle ujoint and noticed that part of my bump stop (the rubber part) had rotted through and was bouncing around in...

    fan hitting ac compressor

    So I changed the mechanical fan clutch (duralast part# 922625) on my 97 cherokee and after I reassembled it the fan was just barely hitting the clutch on the ac compressor with 1 blade. Figured maybe the fan was tweaked and I didn't know it so I swapped on another fan blade I just happened to...
