    2000 Cherokee XJ Misfire Mystery

    Did you check corrosion in the plug ends? Also, my son's 01 long coil pack 'bar' had little tiny cracks and was 'bleeding' spark through there. Just for kicks, check for spark bleeding in a dark garage or night. And check the asd relay. I had an issue where it started then before let go of the...

    Splined output shaft ax-15??

    Good morning. I pulled a rwd ax-15 from a cherokee (01?) that I want to use in a '01 Dakota with the 2.5. (I try and pull manual 5spds when I see them and get the driveshafts or yokes) But for some reason I can't find the yoke that I pulled with it. I have a few yokes that look like they're the...

    Looking for a vehicle with a wide D44 Rear Axle

    I have a couple of SJ wide-track axles that are out. One from a '74 J-10, one from a '81 Cherokee, and a set from a '79 Wagoneer, reg track. (But those are 2.72 gears lol) Would you like me to measure them? E

    Thinking of a whole front sub-frame swap '96xj

    Good morning guys n gals. Hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving. I've been gone for a long while, but still plugging away at my lowered '96 2dr. It was a 4cyl/5spd, 2wd that I'm building into a 5.2 magnum/NV3500/Dana 44. Background: This is a slow build, and on a tight budget. I found a local...

    XJ magnum centering motor Q's

    Hey Guys n Gals, Wasn't sure if this should go in the Modified section or here. But since it won't see mud or trails and just street, I'd post here. (btw.. Mine is a '96 2dr, 2wd that I've lowered and was driving but that dang CPS and ASD relay left me calling for a tow and burned 2 vacation...

    Swapping to bring a smile to my dads face

    Here's what I got for the mounts. They are more to the front of the block for the mid dump headers (below) http://www.ebay.com/itm/318-340-360-t-bucket-hot-rat-rod-motor-mounts-mopar-a-/230553419049?hash=item35ae0dfd29:m:mgQZ9kZNt61-DdgG0TgzGBg And here's the style of headers. Mid dump and...

    Swapping to bring a smile to my dads face

    Any updates? Don't loose heart man, keep it going.. I didn't like the offerings on motor mounts and found some EBay 'hot rod' motor mounts for about 80.00, that are nice and light compared to either of the HUGE late model ones. I'm cutting into the frame rails and welding in 3/16 on an angle...

    FSJ wag axles in a 01 xj work?

    Thank you for that. ..but I just can't seem to use anything ford. No offense, and don't want to start an argument, but it's just that growing up on our farm I had NOTHING BUT TROUBLE from the blue oval. Just one 4cyl tractor (9n?) that ran and ran without issues.. Wish I could have all that mtc...

    FSJ wag axles in a 01 xj work?

    THANKS tons guys.. BUT, someone somewhere gave him an enema and brain washed him.. He got it in his little mind that it's ALL FREE, just because the "Parts are just sitting out back" AAhhh, To be 18 again.. (..at least he respects who WON THE VOTE and respects the Constitution!!) He's a...

    Will postal xj axles swap to LHD axle bodies?

    Me again. Son's 01 cherokee's front axle is moaning from mileage and need another but all the yards are clean of them (front 4x4 axles) Found a guy local that has a postal xj and need to know if they will swap straight up? I thought I already posted this but can't find it..:mad: Maybe another...

    FSJ wag axles in a 01 xj work?

    Over the decades I've 'acquired' a wide array of parts and did a trade for some '79 (?) dana 44's. But they're in 2.93's (?):mad: And a set of W/T J-10 Dana 44's with 3.54's. Is there anyone that sells the weldable brackets that can convert either of these axles in a 01 XJ Cherokee? If I can...

    HVAC Question

    Is that door easy go get to? At almost 54 I'm not as limber as I used to be. I put another 4.0 in my son's '01 Cherokee sport, and then the outside temps dropped. Now the blower 'blows' but just cold air (guage shows 190-200) Is yours vacuum operated or are they electric? This goofy hanes...

    New Member - 98 with defrost only

    Sidewinder: THIS IS GREAT! Just what I need to work on son's 01. After engine swap there's no HEAT but blower works fine. I mean, mixture door actuator or ____ isn't working like It used to. (01 cherokee 4x4/auto) BUT, how 'easy' is it to get to while dash is IN? I'm kinda busted up @ 54 and...

    What to do while interior is completely stripped

    Don't forget to route a 6 or 8ga power source HOT down either side or down mid/and or rear with any RCA wiring to amps or subs, and 'duck tape' them down to prevent chafing. You can also add a main 'bus' distribution point for any LED wiring from there instead of having to draw ALL THE WAY from...

    Exhaust Manifold Gasket Direction?

    DON'T USE THOSE CRAPPY ONES!! Use this style: http://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=2649494&cc=1373666&jsn=10670 Theyre only about 5-6$ and METAL not that crappy fiber that will blow out as soon as you fire it up if there are any irregularities in surface matings. Quick example: Put...

    Cam plug depth needed please!

    OH, and Napa and Autozone doesn't sell just one plug. They want you to buy a whole box of 10.. Orielly's got them for .92 I think I'll pop the cam out of the other block and see if there's any wear on the ol plug in the block we pulled out. E

    Cam plug depth needed please!

    I don't think that's TOTALLY true.. It's the thrust bolt with the pin that keeps the cam in place. In relation to the cam plug and it's depth (and of course length of camshaft itself) It's all got to add up to a given dimension. It's kinda funky that the timing cover, gear set, cam and cam bolt...

    New stick lifter and piston ring cleaning method

    Growing up on a farm near Chicago we would run a quart or so of Diesel fuel in the motor oil to keep things clean and a little thin while trying to start a diesel in -50*. Since then, If I get a vehicle of questionable mtc history, I usually run a few gallons of diesel mixed with gas in the...
