  1. Injector. There's only one in an 87 2.5.
  2. Wouldn't it be more "special" if it wasn't the Flintstone eddition?
  3. Well as long as the front matches you should be good to go. :thumbsup:
  4. I wouldn't worry about the clutch. Upgrading the clutch is something you really only need to worry about when you're running high horsepower. If you're concerned about tire size, axle gearing is more what you should be worried about. If you're running 31s and a 2.5, you're going to want AT LEAST 4.10s, but lower would be much better. Truck is originally a 4 speed right? Chances are you have 3.55.
  5. Yup, had that happen in my 4.0, all last summer the thing blew very hot through the defroster. Finally Pat told me what to check and the vacuum ball had a nice big crack in it. Replaced it and now heater works fine except it's too friggin hot.
  6. Just make sure you compress the slave completely when you bleed.
  7. You will need to swap over the engine bay and dash harness, you will have to use the XJs gauge cluster. For the most part, it will be like pulling it out of one XJ and putting it into another. Engine bay/front suspension/dash between XJ and MJ is the same, unless the MJ was an automatic and has a column shifter. ALL XJ/MJ crossmembers are the same. The XJ tank will work if you put it in the bed. I have done that exact mod and works fine. However, the MJ sender will not work properly. It will send fuel and the motor should run, but the Renix and Chrystler level senders are different, and using a Renix sender on a Chrystler system will make your fuel gauge read incorrectly. If you plan on keeping the MJ tank, you'll need to get ahold of a very rare 91 or 92 MJ sender. Does the MJ have driveshafts? If it was originally a 4.0 auto 4x4 then the rear shaft will work. Otherwise you'll need to have it lengthened/shortened.
  8. :roll: Flatlanders. Hey now, WI isn't anything like Colorado, but it ain't flat. Illinois is flat. The Dakotas are flat.
  9. O2 sensor definitly wouldn't hurt. I'd also check fot exhaust leaks and chances are your Cat is done for. How does it run? Does it dog a lot, o do any backfiring?
  10. No *&^#ing way I would do that.
  11. I run no antivirus whatsoever and haven't had any problems. Nowadays, running nothing keeps you off the virus radar. As for your Norton... get rid of it. They used to be one of the best, now they're more trouble than they're worth. My mom had a 3 month trial, and once that was up it stopped letting her computer get on the internet unless she paid to re-subscribe(claimed a virus was doing it). I removed Norton, and all of a sudden it was fine.
  12. 2.5 starters can be a PITA
  13. You mean the 86 in an 88? Electronics are different.
  14. No auto store will carry a gauge cluster. You'll need to either get one online (I'm sure someone here has one) or get one from a boneyard.
  15. XJ - Regular Cherokee ZJ - 1993-1998 Grand Cherokee WJ - 1999 - 2004 Grand Cherokee WK - 2005+ Grand YJ - 1987-1995 Wrangler TJ - 1997 - 2004 Wrangler JK - 2005+ Wrangler I'm not entirely sure on the TJ/JK changeover year though
  16. Not quite. The 86 cluster will not work properly in an 88. You will need a late 87-90 cluster.
  17. Hmm... That white one looks an awful lot like Pat's...
  18. tach isnt ecu controlled?
  19. I'm a human being!!!
  20. Yup, that's why they need to know outer or inner... IIRC the outers are standard right-hand thread, inner is left-hand thread.
  21. Been talkin more to the guy and seems he was fed bad info, tryin to help him through it now. Isn't the 304/360/401 essentially the same motor with a different bore and respectively better heads? I remember seeing somewhere that the 304/340/360 even used the same crank.
  22. The Peugeot tranny was expensive, and only used to fulfill 'French Content' requirements put in place by the French government over Renault. Once Chrysler took over, they no longer had to meet those requirements, and worked to phase out the French parts. Yes, but if it was a good transmission, don't you think they would have kept it? :rotf: I guess my point is that the AX-5 isn't a bad trans.
  23. People still use IE? :nuts: :nuts: :nuts:
