I parked this rig a few years ago, saying I was going to do something with it but i never do, so its time for it to go. The main reason i am posting it here is that i would like to trade it for a stock (or closer to stock) XJ that i can use for grocery gettin'. Specs: -1990 XJ limited body -...

This problem goes back a few threads, so I might be forgetting some information, but I will try to make this description as robust as possible. I wanted to start a new thread, presenting the information in a different manner, maybe that will bring up some new ideas. Vehicle: 1990 XJ...

follow up thread to this one: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=61445 I just got back from vacation and started to work on the jeep again. It was recomended in the last thread that i check the distributor re-indexing/spark path to try and fix my problem. I am satisfied with the...

Just finished putting an 88 engine into my 90. The swap has gone fairly smooth, only a few problems untill now. I was told that the engine was straight out of a front/side impact wrecked cherokee, and ran good when wrecked. It wouldnt run initially, but after replancing the mysteriously missing...

A running engine will sleep under the hood tonight for the first time in almost 10 months. This was a major step to getting ready for the crawl. Now the only other major expences left are a cooling system and new tires. Even though completion before crawl is still questionable, I am stoked to...

I got the block back from the machine shop on Friday, so i started to look over all of the parts, getting ready to start assembly and somthing caught me off guard. The crankshaft didn't have a key on it... Of all the stroker sites and threads i have read, i never remember anything about this. It...

I am replacing the cooling system in my 90 with an open system, and am trying to do it on a budget, so if anyone has good condition heater and radiator hoses and the heater control valve, let me know.

Selling a matched set of Sealed Power H802CP pistons, skirt coated .030 over, and plasma moly rings that go with them. I got these for the stroker i was building, but needed to go deeper in the block to get it cleaned up. accurate power had these listed for $165 + $86. The boxes were opened...

I picked up a D44 front that I'm going to putting under the XJ at the end of this season. Right now it is full width (67") and I was debating about narrowing it a few inches before I put brackets on it. What I end up doing is dependent on a few factors, but mostly what rear axle i can pair with...

So I get a call today from the machine shop. It seems that .030 wasn't enough to clean up the damage to the #1 cylinder like i had estimated, so now I'm buying new pistons. I had originally planned on using +.030 H802CP pistons, which i have already, but I'm having trouble finding them in the...

Is anyone currently residing in Clemson, SC that wouldn't mind knocking on a door for me? If gas wasn't an arm and a leg i would make the trip myself. After a deal gone sour, and now the ignoring of my e-mails, i need to remind someone that i haven't forgot that he owes me money, no mater how...

So as I am attempting to put on some new leaf springs on the jeep I ran into the all too common problem of the bolt breaking free inside the frame, so I cut out a slot and put a wrench on it, the only thing that succeeded in doing was rounding the nut off. Since then I have tried to: Lube it...

As i have been shopping round for a stroker cam, I have seen several grinds that are labeled for fuel injection, for non fuel injection, and non specific ones as well. What is the difference, if any, of a FI cam to a carb'ed engine cam? And a secondary question related to this- How severe is...

Its nice how they can leave you on the side of the road for 5 hours after you place the first call to AAA, but when i stop off at my friends apartment to watch the football game they have your junk impounded before half time because i don't live at the said complex. I don't see why they feel it...

...my next jeep. I guess you guys have brainwashed me well enough that i'm in the market for another cherokee. Im looking for somthing to drive stock for a while, so i want it to be fairly new, somthing in the 97-99 area, 4.0, 5 speed, and 4x4 in North Carolina I have spent the last 3 weeks...

when ever i try to access a members only area of the site, like the tech articles or the chat, i get some 401 error that says i need to retype my password, even though i never entered one in the first place. I tried clearing my cookies and all that good stuff, and i still get the error.

The problem with my engine wasnt caused only by the rockers, as refered to in my post- 4.0 rocker problem my oil pressure gauge was not working at the time the problem started, so i am not sure if this is the cause of the problem or a symtom of it, but i installed a new sending unit yesterday...
