I did search & there are many threads with conflicting info, so here is my question: Buddy has a 1996 4.0L auto with a 231, needs a transfer case. All we can find locally is an 89 4.0L peugot tranny 231. Info here points toward this NOT swapping, without swpping input shafts, and even then it...

We went wheeling on Saturday & my wife hydrolocked her 87 XJ. We pulled the plugs & shot the water out, then found the rotor was broken (fixed it with superglue, lol). We started it & let it run for about 5 minutes, ran fine, then it started losing oil pressure. Checked the oil & it was a...

On an 1986 Jeep Cherokee with a 2.8 & 904 Transmission, which transfer case does it have? There is a 2/4 switch on the console & the 2wd/4hi/neu/4low lever next to the console. I have a leak around the rear 1/2 & need to find what seals I need & how to change them if anyone can help me out here!

Last spring we went for a trip to the Badlands in IN, my father-in-law took his XJ into too deep of a water hole there & ever since the alternator has never charged the battery. Jeep never died in the hole, but we assume this was the culprit ( water over hood). This is a 1991 4.0L HO XJ with...

1986 Cherokee, 2.8L engine, 904 or 727 tranny I bought this Cherokee with a leak coming from the bellhousing. Pulled the trans & replaced the circular front seal, reinstalled the tranny & it leaked WORSE. I just pulled the tranny again last night & the seal looked just fine. Is the leak coming...

I recently bought an 88 wagoneer XJ & have almost finished with building it for my wife, whilst I was under it putting a new rear main seak in it, I noticed that the front D30 was a non-disconnect axle. Is it possible that this is the original axle - I thought that all D30s were disconnect up...

I now have an 86 2.8L XJ & an 85 2.5L XJ; both leak transmission fluid horribly & need new seal kits. How do I tell whether they have the 727 or 904 transmissions? (so I can order the parts before I pull the transmissions) thanks!

I just picked up an 87 XJ with an automatic transmission, has a leaky front transmission seal (I assume (fluid coming from bellhousing) parts store says there is two different 3-speed autos for that year? How do you easily tell them apart?

I was changing my water pump the other day & when I removed the overflow hose from my radiator the little plastic tube went with it. The tube felt brittle inside the hose as well, kinda like it dry-rotted? Anyways, my Jeep seemed to be cooling just fine before the waterpump went out, and I'm...

I have a 1993 XJ 4.0L. I have never had the temperature gauge working in the dash. The fan kicks on if I idle for a while (I assume that it was cooling sufficiently). Which sensor do I need to replace to get the temperature gauge to work? I have the full gauge dash, not idiot lights. If someone...

I blew the u-joint on my 1991 D30 Driver's Side Axleshaft, leading to the destruction of the ears on the stub shaft & axleshaft shortly thereafter. I have a spare 88 D30 sitting in my yard. Can I use the shaft from it for that side on my 91 or are they not interchangeable? (I know the pass side...

I have a LOT of XJ parts in my garage, some have GOT to go, cause it's hard to even fit a Jeep in nowadays, lol. Jeep Cherokee Parts for Sale: 91 AW4(?) 2wd tranny - $75 (with torque converter), pulled 1 month ago for 4wd conversion. 93 AW4(?) 2wd tranny - $50 (with torque converter), pulled...

I recently got a 93 XJ & swapped another 93 4.0L motor into it (was easier than tearing down the motor in my opinion). I have it running now, but the temperature guage in the dash isn't reading anything? I broke the old rear temperature sensor off in the block & put a new one from Autozone in...

1986 Jeep Cherokee XJ Turbo Diesel 4x4 179,484 miles, new timing belt $1000 OBO It currently runs (off a crappy electric fuel pump), but either the mechanical fuel pump needs replaced or there is a crack in one of the "soft" fuel lines allowing air in. It has some interior missing pieces...

A buddy of mine put a homebrew 5" lift on his XJ. He wanted longer LCAs, & I had a home-fabbed set from parts unknown laying in my garage. He threw them in & they seemed to work, but we're not sure if they're the right length or not as we have no idea what the original creator was building them...

Ok, I have a new XJ I'm building for a 5" lift. I am using S10 rear packs. What all options do I have coil-wise for the front end if I was junkyard shopping? The ones I know of: ZJ V8 Coils = ~1" of lift 79 Ford Coils = ~3" of lift ???? What others & what lift do they give?

Ok, this question is on a 1993 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L. I was told this XJ was running down the road & died, never to start again. You turn the key & "nothing". I hear the fuel pump prime & some relays click & that's it. I jumped the positive terminal to the starter & it turned right over, still...

I have a 1986 Cherokee XJ that's got a 2.1L Turbo Diesel motor. I was told it would have great gearing in the axles, but noone is sure on what it'd have. Does anyone have information on what was put in these US diesel XJs? Also, does anyone have any usefull links for turbo diesel XJs? This...

Last weekend I went wheeling & took my front doors off like usual. When I went to reconnect the door harness in the kick panel I plugged one of the plugs into the wrong plug somehow (give me a break - it was 5am & pouring rain!). It immediately made a sizzling noise & I popped it back off after...
