Morocco. And it's a star (the pin is upside down). :yes:

I sold plenty of them at 200-350 depending on condition and completeness. Especially the 4.10 one.

Good work! :thumbsup: although, you'll need a lot more than just an engine to make a 4.0L work in your truck.

Yeah, that stock Jeep carb could choke the life out of a lawnmower. :(

No I didn't. I hit the IMG tag twice, proceeded to delete the wrong extras and then didn't check my post like I usually do. :shake: Been kinda in a hurry wrapping up loose ends today and apparently my brain went on vacation early. :D

Technically, according to the title it is a Jeep Bleesing. :teehee:

Have you confirmed that by looking at the compressor? It might do it without your knowledge. The AC switch might just be for when you want to turn the AC on.

Um, a lot. :D I've long forgotten what it was at last count. Under a thousand for sure. I'm pretty sure I'd remember exceeding that amount.

oh, well 215s aren't that bad. I was thinking you had 235s for some reason. Still, 4.10s will help your engine out. Jeep eventually did away with the 3.55s behind the 2.5L.

The A/C system drys the air, and drier air defrosts the glass faster. :thumbsup:

I think the bigger tires + 3.55 gears are hurting your mpgs. I'd bet they go up with a more appropriate gear ratio. :cheers:

...has now been found. :banana: Going through some random boxes of old stuff yesterday and I found my missing pin. These flag pins were purchased at disney world many many years ago and the joint Moroccan/USA pin has been missing for almost as long. They were some of the first pins I'd ever acquired (it's what I buy as souvenirs when I travel) and not even eBay had been able to help locate an original replacement. I'm so elated. :clapping: The Mickey pin in the middle isn't as old, but went with the theme when I put them all in my book.

Guess I should left yesterday. :hmm:

Then you likely have 3.55 gears and should be hunting for a 2.5/5-speed XJ so you can get the 4.10 geared axles. :thumbsup:

Is yours the 4speed auto or 4speed manual?

I only feel like one. :bowdown: I probably need to visit a bit more often than once a year before anyone at america's largest single-site employer will notice lil' ol' me walking around. :D But if I move to GA, I'll only be 7 hours away, not the usual 19. :brows:

Truly awesome tires! I have a set on the van and they are one of the greatest street tires ever. Too bad the sizes are all car sizes. :shake: I wanted a set for the Libby but no dice.

Yup, some great info there. But sometimes you have to be careful with the comments. Tirerack is where I first learned that different sizes of the same tire are not necessarily made equal. There were a lot of negative posts about the tires I got for the Libby. Some research showed that the boo-hoos were from people who had the 17" version (based on the vehicle they said they had), not the 16" version. I've since seen them next to each other and the tread is similar, but not the same. Bigger gaps in the 17s. Same with people who had the car sizes of the ST tire the Libby first came with. Bad road manners, no traction, crappy lifespan, etc. Our version (225/75) worked great in all weather conditions and lasted 60k+ miles. :cheers:

4wd has a tendency to transform crappy tires into awesome tires. My guess is she's not shifting. (but remind her to shift back out when it's dry) The long trails are a decent tire.

Yeah, I'm hopin' that'll hang on for a bit longer. It's only supposed to be in the 50s in GA next week. :ack: Will do. Ain't that the truth. But at least I know how to spell 'whether'. :D Also, I just learned that I can scroll down the post page, click on the "quote" buttons in the previous posts, and that post pops into my text box as a quote. Learn something new everyday.

I'll be in Georgia for some of next week and then Florida the week after (Disney World!). I should have internet the entire time, but I likely won't be on quite as often. That is all.

If you've got a BA mount that's in decent shape, make sure you pass that on to a Jeeper in need. :thumbsup:

I'm sooooo glad I live in a state where there aren't vehicular inspections. :clapping:

And maybe some specs on the XJ behind it. :clapping:

I've heard the 2.8L blocks have more issues than just pathetic power output when stock. Something about the tiny oil passages. If it were my truck, I'd look into the 3.4L swap. Same block dimensions but with a much better internal design. :thumbsup: edit: I found the page ---> http://jeep.off-road.com/jeep/article/a ... ?id=277008
