    '90 Cherry, 2 dr, 4.0/ AX-15. Jeep was doing great with 213,000 on the clock, then out of nowhere, will not run in the on position. In the on position, everything works... radio, heater, blinkers, reverse light... exept it will not stay running. She starts just fine, runs normally until the...

    Converting to single key

    Is it possible to easily convert my 90 to use a single key like the later years? I'll need new lock cores for the doors, but is there one for the hatch and is there a 'drop in" for the steering lock, or does the whole column need to be swapped?

    Gas mileage... w00t!

    Took my Jeep on a trip yesterday from Carthage, NY to Schenectady, NY and averaged 20.1 MPG! Things have been getting better and better on this rig. I started off with an almost outrageous 15 MPG, fixed the dragging brake and mileage went up to 17. Ran Seafoam through her, and in addition to...

    Jumped on the Seafoam bandwagon

    Yup, this stuff does work! Ran it through last night, and Jeep is so quiet at idle now, I can hear the injectors ticking with the hood closed. Added some to the oil, will change that in a week or so, gonna add a bottle to the gas when I fill up. The only thing really bad that happened, was I...

    AX-15 fluid

    How's the Pennzoil syncromesh fluid work in the AX-15? Bottle says that it is direct replacement for Mopar and all tranny's with brass syncros. That's the only oil that I could find at the local parts store that wasn't gl-5. I need to run this for a couple tankfuls, then it's time to put new...

    tranny update

    I finally got around to looking at the tranny (ax-15) in the XJ. It was popping and difficult to shift when driving, and would grind in neutral. I pulled the top off of the tranny and looked in, fluid was black, and had a little bit of milkiness to it. Fluid level was at about the center of...

    8 year old daughter behind the wheel...

    Helped me find the steering issues in the Cherry today. Had her turn the wheel back and forth, and discovered that the track-bar was bad on both ends. Got the new one in, and drives a LOT better. Now I need to get the Currie drag-ling and get it in there and my steering will be at 100%...

    Astronomy Buffs...

    For all those that are atronomy buffs, I just picked up a steal. Jenn and I were out at Sams Club, and I strayed off (like usual) and found the clearance isle. Well, there all alone and miserable looking was this little telescope. Looked over this former floor model, and all I saw wrong with it...

    Steering issue found?

    Weel, I think that I found the issue with my Cherry wanting to follow ruts and off-camber roads, also a little bump-steer. Finally had a fair day to go out and look at the steering, and the lower part of the drag link is bent in 2 different planes about 1 inch in each direction. (bent down and...

    Where to buy d30 axle shafts...

    I am thinking of going with the OX joints in my steering, but need one of the following axles... Superior, Yukon, Warn, or Genuine Gear. Been googling these for the Cherry, and still nothing unless I get a super kit that includes a locker as well... I'm not ready to shell out over 1k for that...

    hmmm... snow...

    Well, after having a really mild winter thus far, we have been almost blizzarding here the last couple days. Last night we got about 12 inches. Been trying to get the driveway cleared, but there are also high winds. We have snow anywhere from the flats at 12 inches, to 2-3 feet in the drifts...

    D-30 steering knuckle u-joint

    What is the procedure to replacing these? Are they replaceable, or does the whole shaft need to be swapped? Looking at the blow-out drawing, the u-joint is replaceable, but under the Jeep last night, it looked like the joint isn't replaceable. Is it just a pressed in piece that you have to...
