    Junkyard Lift - Safely Removing S10 Leaf Springs

    That's an awesome idea! Thank you. Did you do the U-Bolts first, then the two frame mount bolts?

    Junkyard Lift - Safely Removing S10 Leaf Springs

    I have a question about safely removing S10 leaf springs at the junkyard, which I've never done before. I'm hoping to do a junkyard lift on my '91 XJ. I received my Rusty's 3" HD coils for the front yesterday. And I was hoping to start the bastard pack today. My son and I found 6 possible...

    '91 Jeep XJ Not Starting ... Short Cranks When Turning the Key

    Turned out to be the ignition switch on the top of the steering column. I replaced it tonight and so far the Jeep starts every time. Thanks again for all the comments.

    '91 Jeep XJ Not Starting ... Short Cranks When Turning the Key

    Great info. Thank you! So, I replaced the starter and cleaned and tightened every connection in the starter circuit, put it all back together and the problem persists. Even though the starter tested good, I replaced it anyway because whoever previously replaced it stripped the threads on...

    '91 Jeep XJ Not Starting ... Short Cranks When Turning the Key

    I just now got back from having the starter tested. It tested good. I'm about to clean the starter connections and reinstall it. Then I'll check all the ignition circuit connections that I can ... focusing on the ground connections. If the problem persists, I'll have the new battery tested...

    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, but I'll check all the grounds and connections as suggested to be safe.

    '91 Jeep XJ Not Starting ... Short Cranks When Turning the Key

    Yes. I put a breaker bar on the crank shaft. Thankfully the motor turns freely.

    '91 Jeep XJ Not Starting ... Short Cranks When Turning the Key

    Thanks for the responses! The battery's ground cable is new. I also replaced the positive and negative terminals on both battery cables. The positive cable could be severely corroded under the insulation. I didn't think of that one. I will check the positive battery lead, the starter...

    '91 Jeep XJ Not Starting ... Short Cranks When Turning the Key

    Hi All, This morning I started my '91 XJ then shut it off. Now it won't start. I turn the key forward and the motor does one (1) short crank. I turn the key off, and again one (1) short crank, but it sound like a reverse crank. Here's a short video of what's happening...

    Fin Sensor Cycling Clutch Switch

    Does anyone know where I can get a Fin Sensor Cycling Clutch Switch? I tried to pull two from XJs at a local salvage yard, but they both broke. The wire gets pulled from the copper tube when the tube snaps off the sensor casing. This is the Fin Sensor Cycling Clutch Switch in the heater box...

    What are these 2 wires?

    Thanks for the replies! I did finally figure it out. There are no fog lights mounted. But there was a single, small spot light mounted on the driver side roof rack that I ripped off when I got the Jeep home. The tan and black wire came up out of the cowl and ran across the windshield to the...

    What are these 2 wires?

    Awesome. I didn't think of that. Thank you! I can't find where they connect to. They may not have been connected to anything. For now I will isolate each spade terminal with some heat-shrink tubing to prevent any shorts. Thanks again!

    What are these 2 wires?

    Hi All, Can anyone tell me what these two wires are and where they go? I am reinstalling my dash. Apparently I did not label these two wires, though they are attached to the fog light switch connector which I did label. I'm working on a 1991 XJ (Laredo) Thank you! Chris

    Are 4WD vs 2WD Jeep XJ Transmission Different?

    Hi, I wonder if someone would explain to me the differences between Jeep XJ 4WD and 2WD transmissions? I ask because I have a 2WD XJ. I got it for $400. It runs strong. It has low mileage. I've done bunch of work to it, including making the doors removable. The body is in great shape. I was...
