hi guys, ok, it's the 91 xj 4l aw4: idle is always (cold or hot engine) at least at 1k, more often at 1.25k - 1.5k when starting up, it goes up to 1.75-2k then dropping to the said rpms. it's really annoying me - too loud, too much fuel / km, too much pull when on the brakes... i checked the...

hi guys, got a nasty knock out of my 91 @ 215.000 km. sound is less loud when in gear but doesn't completely go away. it got louder each day. it wasn't as precise as clockwork - it felt like it was fading out and in from time to time but you could hear it most of the time... it appeared to be...

hi guys, my 87 xj has a bigger drum brake on the rear axle then my 91 xj - how hard would it be to take the 87's and swap them to the 91? i believe the 87 is a d44 and the 91 probably a d35 (it's got abs as well) any ideas? thanks, michael

hi guys, my power steering (91 xj) has some hard spots - it is harder to turn the wheel when i come back from a left turn slightly before it centers... no binding though, the jeep is not modified in any way. will the 87 xj components fit? can have those parts for free...

i got a 90 xj with worn ball joints and u-joints on the front axle. and a donor 87 xj with the front in perfect shape. any way of getting the working parts from the old to the slightly less old jeep fairly painless? like, would i be able to switch the axles? would that be less trouble than...

87 4.0 xj 335.000 km, supposedly unaltered (as i got the car last year) engine runs smothly for the age and after changing the o2 sensor about 5 month ago i had a consumption of about 19-20mpg (12l/100km) now i have a sudden drop to >20l/100km or 11mpg car starts up fine, runs good in idle and...

hi guys! got a hidden hitch (2'') for my xj from the junkjard (50$) without any nuts and bolts. what size bolts should i use to mount the thing. and: how do i get the nuts to those bolts in place? i can see the mounting holes but it doesn't seem as if there is a thread behind each - or am i...

hi guys! (1987 XJ 4.0 auto) i try to install a remot starter (i actually only wanted the keyless entry but the thing was on sale). i have to tap into the wiring for the ignition switch and was hoping to avoid the try and error method. can anyone tell me what color what cable to the ignition...

hi guys! i have a 87 laredo and since a few days a problem i can't explain nor pinpoint: the speakers of my radio (jvc headunit) suddenly stopped putting out sound. from time to time it starts playing again for a few seconds and then it gets silent again. the radio itself works, tested it in...

hi guys! i seem to have a 3 speed automatic transmission in my cherokee laredo from 1987. i couldn't get any information about this strange thing as anybody says it should have a 4 speed. but a friend has a 90 wagoneer (same engine, non ho) which shifts differently and shows a different overall...
