Jeepstrokers.com forum is a great resource, enough information to make your head spin. Sgt beat me to it on the crank info. :D

Neat! Free too! http://furycomics.com/viewer/9/Jeep_Com ... /?i=1&m=S9

Thanks for trying!

I don't run a lift, I need a stock style front shaft. Has to be from a 4cyl, manual transmission setup. All the other drivetrain combos are way too long, 30-40 inches. Anything longer than 26" collapsed, isn't going to fit. While I'm not a cheapskate, I don't want to pay the $200 that a couple local junkyards wanted. If you have one that works, that would be great. I suppose you'd need to check what shipping costs first though. Let me know, thanks! :thumbsup:

Looking for a front CV shaft to finish my 4wd conversion. Transfer case is the NP231 and collapsed length needs to be a little over 25 inches longs (center of cap to cap). :wrench:

Also check the wiring on the coil pickup sensor. The little rubber proective booty thing in mine had shrunk from age, allow the two connectors to fit loosely. If I poked or wiggled the connectors the jeep wouldn't start or would stumble. It would also stumble on the bad patch of road by my house which was riddled with potholes. I'd hit a nasty one causing the wiring to move/bounce. Replaced the boot with an old one out of a spare sensor I had and it fits nice and tight now. Secured the wiring better as well.

I had a weird starting issue which all I needed to do was check the codes, as pointed out by fellow members. Disconnect your battery and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Reconnect, attempt to start. Peform procedure listed below viewtopic.php?f=9&t=29857 Thew code 54, distributor sync sensor. Replaced it and all is well. Did you already check fuel pressure?

Personally, I'd pass. You can build your own budget stroker for around the same cost. Selling a stroker after only 50k seems a bit suspect. Great resource is http://www.jeepstrokers.com/forum/, I'm always lurking about there. :D

I don't know about petroleum jelly, but I always use a very small amount of clean motor to lubricate the o-rings before I install them.

:rotfl2: I thought it was a real commerical at first. Are we the only three on here with a warped sense of humor? :D

I've always used RAM clutches in all my Jeeps, OEM line. Never had a single problem and they are decently priced too. http://www.ramclutches.com/

Looks like my pressure is dropping 5psi every minute. Books says 20psi after about 30 minutes is normal but I'm almost there. So it looks like a new fuel pump is in order then.

It bounces wildly at 35, hard to tell what the exact reading is. I'll try a pressure leakdown test too.

Put a new fuel filter in less than 500 miles ago. 35psi at idle, 40psi with vaccuum disconnected which is in spec according to my manual. Anyways this morning the weather warmed up, jeep started fine. Drove it for about 30 miles with no problem. Got home, shut it down. Came back out 30 minutes later and it wouldn't start again. After about 7-8 tries it started fine. This is driving me nuts. Almost everything in the engine compartment new except for: coil (slightly out of spec, book says 1.2-1.4ohms, reads 1.5ohms) coil pickup inside distributor IAC coolant temp sensor manifold air temp sensor All those items are about $40 ea at the local parts store, trying to avoid just throwing more money into an unknown problem.

I thought moisture as well but cap is dry as a bone. I just tried to fire it up and it spit & sputtered, I had to rev it to 3k for a few seconds then it idles fine. Still pretty cold this morning though, sun hasn't come out yet.
