    New brake shoes, tight spot in drum

    I've been working on my D35 -> 8.25 swap whenever time permits, and have been doing little things to the 8.25 before I put it in. Fixed a broken shock stud, replaced mangled pinion seal, etc. I'm putting new brakes on it as a last step before a once-over paint job. This thing sat outside for...

    D35 to 8.25 question

    Hi all, I wasn’t sure if this should be in modified or OEM so please move if I’m wrong! I’m picking up an 8.25 out of a 2000 XJ tomorrow to replace the D35 in my 91 since my goal is to run 35s eventually and not worry so much. I’ve done a lot of google and YouTube searching, but I can’t seem...

    Sitting a long time. Maintenance/Upgrades?

    I'm not sure if this belongs in OEM or modified, but I figure it's more appopriate here. My 91 XJ was my daily for quite a while until I bought my truck, and now the XJ has been sitting in my driveway for probably about a year. Tried to start it, my NeverStart was dead. Went big and replaced...

    Tracing coolant leak

    So the other morning it was about 9 degrees, so I let my 91 warm up in the driveway for about 15-20 minutes. I come out to leave and there are two sizeable puddles of coolant underneath, one under the passenger and one under the driver side, with steady drips still coming down. I shut it down...

    Sudden soft brake pedal

    The other day leaving for work I noticed my brake pedal is significantly softer than it should be, not grabbing until near the floor. This thing has been a brake nightmare, beginning with replacing the bendix abs with a 96 booster/master setup. Rotors and pads are ~2 months old, shoes and...

    Overcharging issue, several OBDI codes

    I apologize in advance for the long story. I started my 91 the other night, and saw the CEL for the first time since I’ve owned it. Did the key cycle and came back with the following codes that I pulled from fixjeep: 12*: Battery or computer recently disconnected within the last 50 start...

    Hitch advice

    My 91 didn’t come with a tow package, so I’ve been looking at picking up a hitch so I can pull a small utility trailer when I need to move random stuff that’s too big for the cab, no plans for hauling a boat/camper or anything too heavy. I found this on Amazon with a $15 off coupon, which seems...

    Another heater core thread

    Hi all. My 91 Laredo was starting to smell a bit like coolant inside the last winter I drove it (4 years ago). After getting her running in the summer and driving it this winter, the coolant smell intensified. I first bypassed the HCV after going through three of them in a matter of two weeks...

    Blower fan harness/resistor issue

    Hi all, Recently, my blower fan in my 91 Laredo stopped working. I could feel the heat coming from my defroster vents when moving, but then it would stop as soon as I came to a stop. I also noticed the slider to the AC positions doesn’t engage anything, neither the AC condenser nor the electric...

    Upper heater hose diameter

    Hi all, After having issues with my radiator cap, I wanted to do a flush of my cooling system since the Jeep sat for close to 4 years and who knows what's inside. I had originally spliced in one of those Prestone flush and fill tee fittings into my upper heater hose originally, and while...

    Spraying coolant from rad cap

    Sorry in advance for the long post, I hate cooling systems. So after finally getting my brake issues addressed, I finally got my '91 through inspection after sitting for a little over 3 years. I've been driving it every day for about 4 days with no issues, but I have noticed that the temp gauge...

    No front brakes!

    My rig is a 91/4.0/4wd that originally had the nightmare Bendix ABS, but it's been swapped for a 96 MC/booster. Everything was great until I got off work one night and the pedal went to the floor. Limped it home where it sat for nearly 4 years since I relocated for work. Never saw any leaks...

    Bendix swap questions..again.

    First post, and I'm sure this topic has been beaten to death, but here we go! So I picked up a '91 Laredo for a good price, but it's got the crap Bendix 9 ABS system, and to no one's surprise, it's shot. The pump motor runs constantly, and I have virtually no brakes, just a rock hard, vibrating...
