  1. 2" pucks for the front, longer shackles for the rear. :thumbsup: where do the tires rub?
  2. and clean the iac ports :thumbsup:
  3. try spraying a flammable liquid (such as a throttle body cleaner) around carefully. especially get the seam where the intake manifold meets the head. when the liquid gets sucked into a leak, the idle sped will change. you can also do it with an unlit propane torch. :thumbsup:
  4. be mindful of blocking the radiator. I've read about people having cooling issues with the big winch in the way.

  6. and just think how much time you'll be saving by never needing to type out antidisestablishmentarianism when talking about the antidisestablishment. :yes:
  7. how are you checking? propane? starter fluid? or just visual?
  8. cleaned the throttle body and IAC yet? which technique are you using to find leaks? checked for leaks at the vacuum reservoir? in the 4wd lines?
  9. no pics of your new digs? and when are you getting that next comanche? :D
  10. :waving: the city won't let me park them in the empty parking lot, won't let me park them in the street, but I went to court and won and can at least park them in my driveway as long as I want. :D
  11. don't let them forget the little t-case shift linkage bracket that bolts to the underside of the body.
  12. what happens with other forums?
  13. from a cop XJ I bet.
  14. when are we opening that museum. :D
  15. Hey Virginia! :waving: sorry i don't have an answer for ya. it's been years since I've had a door apart. :(
  16. usually (but not always) a bad CPS causes random no-starts or instant-stalls (like you turned the engine off). I would start by cleaning out the throttle body with a toothbrush and some 02-safe throttle body cleaner. it's essentially free, so why not. after that, try spraying that TB cleaner around while the engine is running and look for vacuum leaks, especially around the intake manifold where it bolts to the head. if a leak sucks it in, the idle speed will quickly change. also free. after that I would investigate the TPS. if it's faulty, the computer won't be matching the air coming in with the appropriate amount of fuel. somewhere here is a how-to for checking the TPS with a multimeter, but I usually just throw on a different one from the junkyard and see if anything changes. :D could also be a clogged up cat I guess. or a very weak spark.
  17. very nice!
  18. and they are all very expensive and require a gear setup procedure to install. :( plenty of people use the cheaper "lunchbox lockers" like the aussie in their daily drivers. just takes a bit of change in your driving style.

  20. fixed it. :thumbsup: sorta.
  21. what do you want to do with the MJ? what's the end goal?

    ditto. Jeep Junkie you say? hmm... not yet familiar with that one. :D
