I just put a 1995 4.0 into my 93 Cherokee......I had the motor mounts aligned and the 4 engine mounting bolts on the trannie tightened....I cannot get the flywheel / converter bolt holes to align....Have spent hours on this...... Now I have the trannie mounts disconnected as well as the two...

I just swapped the engine in my 1993 Cherokee 4.0 and replaced the motor mounts as preventative maintenance. The drivers side mount is installed, aligned and bolted loosely. However, I cannot get the passenger side mount to line up no matter how hard I try. The hole appears to be 1/4-3/8 inch...

I live in Northern Cal and am 'thinking about' selling my 87 Comanche 4x4 5 speed 4.0, 7 foot box, 86K orig miles, w/cap, Dana 44 rear, mild death wobble...Minimal rust, good paint, garage kept until recently....Rarely used, this is why I am considering selling it... I am the second owner, my...

I am rebuilding a used Jeep 4.0 and was told the motor was a 1993....I purchased a replacement timing set which had a 'single' chain.....But when I ripped it apart, the motor had a double chain but I installed the 'single' chain kit in it.....However, I just ran the numbers off of the block and...

I am rebuilding a 93 4.0 and have removed the freeze plugs. I purchased some 2 inch plugs from NAPA and prior to installation coated them very lightly with permatex. However, it seems like I can merely push them into the block flush using my fingers without banging them in???? If I really try...

I am rebuilding a Jeep 4.0.....How do you pump the oil thru the engine before you start it.......It appears that the oil pump is hooked up to the distributor and the cam.......So if you spin the distributor, you are turning the oil pump AND the cam which is turning the engine over.....Therefore...

The procedure whereby you need to count '15 pins' to ensure the timing chain is installed properly. Is this applicable to 4.0's with a single or a double chain? My 1993 4.0 has a double chain and it seems impossible to have the timing correct using the '15 pin' alignment rule. The auto parts...

My 93 XJ runs on the hot side like everyone elses. I am going to put a 3 row radiator in it. However, I was also thinking about putting a 180 degree thermostat in it instead of a 195. Has anyone noticed any problems passing emissions and/or decreased gas mileage with the 180?

While doing a brake job on my 93 XJ (4.0 Auto 137K Miles), I rotated the front wheels with the BRAKE CALIPERS & PADS OFF and both wheels made a ta..ta..ta sound.....Could not tell if it was coming from the hub or the universals....Is this normal for a 4x4 or should the wheels spin perfectly...

When my Xj is cold, from a stop while in drive the trannie slips for a about a second or so. ie...I press on the gas the motor revs up then the truck suddenly kicks into drive and takes off....When the truck is warm this no longer occurs....Also, no other problems with the trannie.....fluid is...

I just drained the fluid out of my transfer case......Only 3/4 of a quart came out.....The 'peramex' sealant used to seal the case appears to have deteriated....Is it possible to just pull the axles and remove the covers and reseal them while leaving the case in the vehicle?.....Thanks much

My backup lights come on only when I wiggle the shift lever while in reverse. Do I need to clean the NSS or just merely adjust it? Thanks much

My 93 Cherokee does not have a 3rd stop light. What year did they begin to use them?

The upper door hinge on my XJ has separated from the body. I do not have a welder or a rivetor (required to install the Chrysler repair kit). Could I just drill two 1/4 holes thru the hinge plate, thru the A-pillar and put bolts thru the holes and use nuts & washers on the inside of the A-pillar...

Apparently, the stock Throttle Body on a 91-95 4.0 is 60mm. However, the opening on the intake is 62mm. Has anyone had their throttle body bored out to 62mm? Do you notice any increased power and/or change in fuel economy?

I just pulled the carpets on my 93 Cherokee and I have some pretty big holes in my floor boards that I was not aware of (until now) as well as lots of rust. I plan on keeping this truck for a while and will be moving out of state. Therefore, I am thinking that I should have the floor boards...

I just bought a 93 Cherokee 4.0 4x4 with an automatic for $825. I am rebuilding the motor since the existing one has a rod knock w/136K miles (It appears that the previous owner was hard on this vehicle). Are there any things which typically fail on the 4.0 automatics which I should replace...
