If you go to this page https://xjjeeps.com/ and scroll down to page 377 of the 97-99 service manual. It does show what looks like a screw stud mounting up into the nut strip, so I take back what I thought. Tom

All the nut strips I have seen, including mine for a '96, have 4 nuts welded to the strip. You may be able to use a nut splitter, or use a cutoff wheel and angle grinder. Tom

For heat, I like to use the MAPP gas torches with the trigger on, so when you release the trigger the flame goes out. Better than propane. Tom

Did you new stabilizer not come with new fasteners? I used heat and penetrating liquid on mine to get it loose. The one I removed and replaced it with both had hex heads. I agree with the anti-seize; be sure to use plenty. A side note, I do think it makes a difference in how the steering...

Sure sounds like what happened with my old carburetor Dodge. It had a dead spot in the choke. when warm - had to push the gas peddle to the floor, hold while starting Tom

I could not tell from your post, but do not try and grease a worn out bushings with elongated holes. Google foo is your friend. Grease-able bushings http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/ENS0/95163G/N1583.oap?ck=Search_N1583_ENS_1180358_740&mn=Energy+Suspension&mc=ENS&pt=N1583&ppt=C0106 Tom

I just changed mine. Took off castle nut and screwed it on backwards. 3-4 smacks with a large hammer broke mine loose. I would try a torch. Did you spray the thing down with PB blaster or 50-50 mix of ATF & acetone or something similar the day/week before? Tom

Make sure that any of the sensors you took out, went back into the correct place. Re-check to see if all of the sensors are plugged in. Did you number the fuel injector connectors before you removed them? Tom

You should also be testing your over pressure relief valve, the brass valve with the ring on it next to the power switch. Pull it out (weekly) and air should exhaust out the tank. This is a good way to bleed out the tank pressure before opening up the drain on the bottom of the tank. As...

I installed Bilsteins in my 96 a couple of months back. My ride was still wobbly (but better than the bad shocks). I ended up replacing the front springs with Moogs. Ride is much improved. Tom

Could be one of the other sensors/wires/connectors. When I changed my serpentine belt on my 96 last fall, I unplugged the sensor wire that was in the way of belt tension bolt. I forgot to re-connect the connector and my beast refused to start. Plugged it back in and it ran rough for a little...

I did this 14 -15 years ago on my '96 and use plus 30, 55/65 Hella bulbs from Susquehanna. Best money I have ever spent on my jeep. I built my own harness and I doubt I saved any money on the harness, but I was younger then. Tom

Plugged fuel filter? I would think the pressure would vary if that was the case. I remember back in high school, someone brought in a vehicle that would not run very well when the throttle was pressed, but would idle just fine. It turned out to be the fuel filter. Tom

How about investigating a solenoid operated hydraulic ram. You would be pushing an electrical switch and the hydraulics would do the rest. Actuation speed is adjusted with an in line needle valve. Just a thought.

I did the swap on my '96 15 years ago and have never had an issue. I think my cluster came out of a '94. Last year I had to change my oil pressure sending unit as the dealer part went toes up. I bought a replacement from the auto parts store and seems to work like the factory one did. Bulbs...

The FAQ page is your friend http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=101116 Yes, easy. You need to replace two sensors and the cluster. Tom

I don't know why I missed this, but the corners are glued together, so it did not start out as one piece. It is what I get for going off of memory. Tom

I need to clean behind my windshield trim on my '96. It has the black plastic trim that looks to be one piece. I can lift up the edge and look behind it, where I see some mud and corrosion. My google foo so far indicates that there are some kind of clips, but I can not tell if I can just...
