I have had some of these issues as well. I tried the youtube re-solder and the slave switches went from no worky to intermittent. I just ordered another switch cluster for the driver door. As for the door locks not moving, I have been there too. I did at one point remove and completely...

This happened to me when I overloaded my roof rack and was pulling a decent grade with a head wind. Toasted the fluid pretty good. I have noticed that since I installed an external cooler (in series with the radiator cooler) and a temp gauge with the sending unit right at the outlet of the...

I will share my experience in this venture. About a year ago, my water pump started seeping and I had wanted to add a trans cooler eventually anyway. Much searching here on the forums and I gathered parts galore. New water pump (gates) t-stat, belt, hoses, ZJ fan clutch, flush cooling system...

I installed (sort of) the G2 cables from Amazon today. I say sort of because I only had time to adjust them at the linkage where they hit the lever cable. My jeep is a mess right now doing everything from tranny service and solenoids to radiator and timing chain so adjusting the p brake pads...

In my research I found reference to keeping the soft lines off of the donor because of the mounting system. I assumed this was for the caliper side but now that you mention it, that may have been in reference to the bracket on the inverted flair end. Mine came from a ZJ with ABS and had a...

Also, my parking brake cables are in the mail. Ordered the G2 ones from Amazon.

Didn't take any pics but the brake lines were easy enough to just bend by hand where I needed them to point. I cut the mounting tabs off of the stock ZJ soft lines to free up some room. The welds i was referring to are the ones that join the backing plate flange to the axle tube or bearing...

When faced with this choice and after some research I decided that the tail light mount was easier than getting a solid ground from my swing out. Make sure you take the paint or powder coat off of the mount around at least one of the bolt holes. I paid a lot more attention to antenna ground on...

I just did mine on Friday. I saw a parting ad on the CL for a same year Grand Cherokee as my XJ. I told the guy what I wanted, he insisted that I take the whole rear end not just the brake parts for $150. He let me have the prop valve too. I told him to pass my number to anyone looking for the...

That's what I'm looking for. I did the 4 hole injector swap about 30k miles ago and it did run cooler after that. We had our first little cool spell yesterday. I did 65 freeway miles this morning and the trans only got up to 135. The engine of course was nice and cool too. I will probably have...

Thanks for posting this link in the other radiator thread. I just did this this to mine and I have a few questions for you about temps if you would like to answer since our set ups and location seem to be so similar. I went with the AN 6 adapter from Summit out of the trans and added a...

Any idea how hard it would be to have an -AN 6 male adaptor soldered onto the trans cooler inlet on that Mishimoto? I recently replaced the entire cooling system on my 98 with a stock style radiator and added an external trans cooler, gauge, and spin on filter. In the process, I switched most of...

I did the RE 3.5" kit on my 98. I also run 31's. I could have and still want to do the SYE, but a t-case drop got rid of drive-line vibes. I got the add a leaf for the rear and they worked for a few years, but my springs were probably already shot so it was flexing too much too easy. The RE...

Mine is working ok on the grill (left side). I got the an 6 adapter and put a gauge at the tranny output, runs through a spin on filter adapter, then into the external cooler, then into the factory cooler (now it's actually a warmer) and back to the trans. It was my hope in doing all of this...
