hmmm..... that's an interesting thought.

no pull-your-parts on the area?

I would sooooooo own that truck. :D old meets modern meets going really really fast. :D

Do you know how to properly set up gears?

water can come in through anywhere. it's almost magical. be sure to find and seal the leak before you put the carpet back. the baby powder trick works great. :thumbsup:

my phone has both a camera and a calculator, but I digress. If it is not in the CFC program, ask about what it would take to buy the old girl. :thumbsup:

as of last I was there, the trans and t-case and front shaft were still there. rear shaft might be somewhere in the bed, there's a lot of junk in the bed. doors were still there and bed was still intact. steering column was also in the bed. feel free to ask about rescuing the ol girl. the phone number has proved to be worthless. :fs1:

Essentially all he'd be doing is replacing the old v6 block and heads with a matching (but better) set of new v6 block and heads. Tach should work fine. :thumbsup:

bad head gasket?

for a truck that hasn't left that parking lot in 2 years, it's both good and a good deal. :D

heck yeah, start yourself a thread in the projects forum! :thumbsup:

nope. i did keep it for garage decor though. In its stead is a full bore race "muffler". :D one that doesn't really fit he original pipe. :shake: gotta by an adapter for that one of these days. It was free so how could I not use it?

:bowdown: where abouts do you guys have your basic training?

and you'll need an electric fuel pump, since the 3.4 doesn't have the place for the mechanical. Doesn't have to be very powerful if you're keeping the carb. and speaking of carb, I highly recommend upgrading the stock carb. :thumbsup: Some may disagree, but I own a 2.8 and that stock carb could choke the life out of a lawnmower. :fs1:

any AX-15 out of any Jeep can be made to work. :thumbsup: 89.5 right up to 99. I've got a 99 TJ trans in my 88 MJ. you can try car-part.com for a junkyard search in your state.

photos? please tell me you took some photos. :D

and weigh more than god's green earth. :ack: still sweet though.

The search engine is pretty basic (it's freeware afterall) and for the life of me I can't seem to completely turn off the "common word" thing. :dunno: It's one of the reason I always suggest just asking your question. That's what we're hear for. :cheers: P.S. good reading here: http://jeep.off-road.com/jeep/article/a ... ?id=277008 http://www.lunghd.com/Tech_Articles/Pro ... ect_XJ.htm

nothing like a good backfire in the morning. :D

I love my whip. The first time I fired it up I was talking to truckers waiting in line to cross the Ambassador bridge (to canada) 10-15 miles away. :D And that's with my mini CB. can't wait to see if the bigger unit is even better. Prior to that I had a handheld that sometimes didn't communicate with the truck directly in front of me. :fs1:

IAC is right next to the TPS. Did you pull the CPS? sometimes it can get gunked up with rust attracted to the magnet.

sweet. even has a place for a little basket up front. :D

AAL = add a leaf

I believe so. my photo is of a stock MJ unit.
