    Adding Trailer Wiring to 1996 XJ

    When using a lighting converter be mindful of the requirements of your trailer. Several years ago I had a VERY small trailer that I converted to LED, and my existing converter wouldn't make the lights work anymore. I found out the voltage output from the converter was only about 10 volts...

    Stock Control Arm Shims

    I did mine and did not use a ratchet strap. I just loosened the nut on the large pivot bolt and the two smaller nuts behind the lower control arm mounting bracket. Then I tapped a screwdriver in to push the pivot bolt forward. You can take the nut completely off to see the slot in the control...

    1992 XJ AW4 doesn't want to shift

    It is currently 3.55. What should I be running? When I check the speedo it's pretty close to dead on (at least according to Google, if you can trust it). The 31's aren't that much bigger than the tires that were on it when I got it. Just not nearly as cracked and knotted!

    242 adjustment procedure

    May not be per the manual, but this is what I did: Shift the transmission into neutral - necessary to prevent binding when trying to go from 4 High to 4 Low. Shift the transfer case shifter into 4 Low Under the Jeep on the driver's side up in the "tunnel" loosen the two lock bolts on the two...

    1992 XJ AW4 doesn't want to shift

    Thanks for the reply, but... No codes - it was the first thing I checked. Drove it today (temperature is 41 degrees F), and the problem came back. No shift from 1st to 2nd, so I let it rev to 3,000 rpm, "blipped" the throttle so it dropped down to no lower than 2,000 rpm, got back on the...

    1992 XJ AW4 doesn't want to shift

    Update (maybe). I decided to start testing sensors. When I tried to apply vacuum to the manifold air pressure sensor from the manifold side it wouldn't hold vacuum. I found that my vacuum line from the manifold to the sensor was leaking. I replaced it and the MAPS holds vacuum fine and has...

    1992 XJ AW4 doesn't want to shift

    Thanks for the info, Tim_MN and Unclewolverine. To be honest, I can't remember which trans fluid I installed, since I did it last year, but I've got some left over at home so I'll double check and put the right stuff in it if I didn't the first time. I'm pretty sure I used what the Haynes...

    1992 XJ AW4 doesn't want to shift

    Hello all, and thanks for the help in advance. I've recently picked up a '92 XJ. 4.0, 4x4. It had been sitting for three years, and is quite the project - already spent more on it than I paid for it. When I first got it, it didn't want to shift, at all. Replaced trans filter, did a fluid...
