I hope you guys aren't too attached to your stock gas tank. :D

should be under the dash just to the right of the drivers legs. I think. Why?

wow. glad i grab that bezel off the CFC MJ. :D

150k is nothing for a Jeep inline. I would check into the other aspects of the engine; sensors, timing chain, etc. There's likely nothing wrong with your block. :thumbsup:

stroker or stockish displacement? some of those desert racing Jeeps have some baaaaaad 4.somethings :D

2.5L/4spd generally has 3.55 gears 2.5L/5spd generally has 4.10 gears

depends. some brands it matters, others it doesn't. Depends on how it attaches to the truck.

check what out?

3 piece

might be a vacuum leak. did you bump anything? double check.

what's wrong with the engine?

He might finish his first JB. :D

Too bad there isn't an MJ on the initial list. :( http://wpchryslermuseum.org/assets/atta ... _14_09.pdf

tailgate was in ok shape (went with the bed). bumper was bent (a common factory option). front end was in good shape. mostly just clearcoat issues. I didn't get back today but hope to go out again tomorrow (lookin' for stuff that I can resell).

Pat is still under "probation". Last I heard, he still has one outstanding debt.

In Michigan. Would have been in the top 5% of all MJs in michigan. :fs1:

I seem to remember someone mentioning that the early HOs were unique. Some where in this article should be the measurements for the renix pilot bushings: http://www.jeeptech.com/convtrans/ax15swap.html

have you tried the pilot bushing from a mid 70s Cj with the 304/stick?

I don't have an image of the truck because I took the camera with me without checking to see if there was a battery in it. :dunno: Didn't realize i had to do that since there are 2 batteries, one to use and one to charge, but anyways... use your imagination to picture a black 89 Eliminator, 98% rust free that had clearly been treated well during its lifetime (up til that last day of course). I hope their new car is a complete lemon (my thoughts are edited to maintain a family friendly atmosphere). :fs1: I tried to buy the truck as a whole, but failing that I managed to score these goodies. all of them in excellent shape. And I grudgingly helped a guy remove the bed and one of the doors. seats were already gone.

What?! how can you be the hardest drinking member? I've never seen a photo of you with a Bud Light Lime. :no: :D

it's an 8.25. the photo hides the give-away items, but they are there. the relatively flat upper edge of the cover, the rolled lip around the edge of the cover, and the flat spot on the lower edge of the housing (the lip is disguised by some dirt). the original post's photo: An 8.25: A dana 35:

Are you looking to replace the bolts? the nuts? or the size of the wrench that would remove them?
