Yes, I have them. Which cluster (year, application, low/mid/high line) do you need??

Adjustable MJ Load Sensing Valve
HOrnbrod replied to HOrnbrod's topic in MJ Tech: DIY Projects and Write-Ups
They can be tested by installing a "tee" fitting w. a hydraulic gauge on the input and output sides of the valve to see if the valve increases or reduces pressure as it should when moving the arm. Used to do this back in my old Cal Lab days for aircraft hydraulic systems. :cheers: -
Measure the diameter of the hole (1" I think it is), and pick up a rubber body plug the same size at Autismzone or similar. :cheers:

A lot of the government (state and federal) XJs also had bench seats. :cheers: -
Eliminator Sticker Measurement?

PM member jeepdoggydog. He recently purchased a NOS right side 91-92 Eliminator decal set on Ebay and was going to have some made using it and the mirror image. -
Donor Vehicles for Center Console
HOrnbrod replied to 1987Comanche's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
AFAIK ZJs never had a front bench seat. XJs did, and of course MJs. Hard to find a decent one, but they show up occasionally on Ebay. I think this is your only option, unless there's an aftermarket one out there. :dunno: -

The horn relay is up under the drivers side dash; it should be white if original. :cheers:

Errr, forget what I posted above kro. I read the title as SOA, not SUA spring perch angle. :dunce: And yes, do what Pete says. :cheers:
-
There is no factory spec - the pinion angle depends on amount of lift, LWB/SWB, etc. and varies by rig. Johnnyc is correct if you want to do it right.

0331 Heads (From the Stroker Forum) Just to clear up some confusion there are some widely held beliefs about the HO heads that aren't true, but are considered "common knowledge" just because they've been repeated so often. Try as I might, I can't get people to stop furthering the myths. The 7120 (91 to 95) head and the 0630 (96 to 99/2000) are basically identical Same flow, ports are identical in size and shape, a temp gauge sensor bung that is deleted in some years of 0630 (or plugged with a hex head bolt in some cases) The biggest difference is that the 0630 has a redesigned valve cover mating surface, and a steel stamped OEM valve cover that is far and away the best sealing (least leaky) cover in the engines entire history. The mating surface shape is slightly changed so this and the excellent rubber o-ring style gasket is incompatible with the aluminum covers (unless you grind off the inside lip of the aluminum cover). The 0331 head despite what many people think, is actually higher performance than any other head in the AMC I6 line. It was dedesigned by a guy named Rick Mudge who is notable for being the head porter who ported the worlds fastest NHRA AMC I6 powered dragster (Gary Hill 8 second quarters with a 4.0 based 500-ish horse power build). Rick redesigned the exhaust ports, the header (dual output iron) and the intake (99 equal runner) for improved torque and hp in the engines operating range. This necessitated smaller more efficient exhaust ports to improve scavenging... The bigger exhaust ports actually HURT power, unless you can get your engine to rev to 6500-7000 RPM's the old ports are WAY too big. The 0331's intake ports are higher and slightly bigger cross section and flow significantly better than all other past heads, the exhausts coupled with the iron "header" which has much longer primaries than past OEM headers (average 6.5" on old HO headers to the iron manifolds 10" average length) coupled with the equal runner intake manifold with much longer runners (11.5 inch vs 8.5-9") is all far more efficient for power in the off idle to 4800 RPM range. Especially for low and mid torque. The first run (99 to early 2001) of the last head casting (0331) cracked around 100k miles between the intake and exhaust rocker mounting boss' on the 3rd cylinder. That head was revised in 2001 and the revised heads can be identified by the letters "TUPY" cast in the same area where the cracks used to happen. From then up to 2006 the 0331 head is good stuff (so far anyway). This can all be confirmed (don't take my word for it) by reading the sticky thread on head porting, and the 0331 head thread (also sticky) on Jeepstrokers.com in the Stroker performance area... Two people (Myself and and a guy named Adam on the forum side who works in a Race shop with a flow bench) have flow tested the 0331 head verses the earlier ones and found the intakes to flow significantly better, while the exhausts "flow" only a little lower CFM even though they were reduced in size by almost HALF. The reduction in size was done by raising the port floor, eliminating the "lazy" spot found in past flow bench supported porting work (done by John Young AKA NOSIGMA and contained in that sticky thread) The exhausts flow at higher velocity due to eliminating this lazy area. So contrary to popular believe, the bigger ones are the ones that are worse performing. Anyway old rumors die hard but hopfully we can squash these.

wiper delay switch
HOrnbrod replied to 89comanchesleeper's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
They are usually several on Ebay. Search for "Cherokee delay wiper module" or "Jeep intermittent wiper module", etc etc. -
wiper delay switch
HOrnbrod replied to 89comanchesleeper's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
His very first post said he has the delay on the MFS. If that's true, it might have been bypassed by someone already. No, I think all that means is he has a wiper stalk w. delay plugged into the MFS. -
Hey Rob - it's cool. Let's not forget we're talking to SIR Sam. :rotfl2:

wiper delay switch
HOrnbrod replied to 89comanchesleeper's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
This is true, but not for the intermittent wipers. The MFS w. delay assembly is a different animal; has one more wire than the MFS w/o delay. If I recall, it's 8 wires vs. 7. The main dash harness itself at the bottom of the column it plugs into indeed does have the extra wire; but the MFS and it's harness does not. Mine was a base model too w/o delay, and when I installed the intermittent wiper function, I had to also change out the switch. And it was a major PITA and requires going down deep into the column. And to make matters worse, the MFS assembly for the tilt and non-tilt columns are different also. :nuts: -
wiper delay switch
HOrnbrod replied to 89comanchesleeper's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Not quite true. If you didn't have intermittent wipers from the factory, you'll also need to change the multifunction switch that the stalk plugs into. It has an extra wire for wiper delay function to the module. And of course you'll need the delay stalk too. -

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it. The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up." Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.
