very nice. :D

96 got some changes to the floorpans (same as 97+ rather than 95 and earlier), but either way, you'll need to massage an XJ pan to fit into an MJ. :thumbsup: it's been done.

all AX-15s are 23 spline output, same as your 92 auto. :thumbsup: stick vs manual is all about your personal preference. Either one will work fine.

WJ arms are the same length as MJ arms and should work up to 3" of lift. to run them you just need to trim the steel bushings a bit and I trimmed the bracket on the axle a bit too to get maximum flex. they provide much better on-road handling while still working very good offroad. The biggest benefit is that the bend provides for tire clearance while turning. :thumbsup:

:cheers:

silver lining. :D

I guess it could be a sensor, but that would be odd that a sensor fail like that. when have you last cleaned the throttle body and IAC?

sure that all you touched were the lines?

yup. too bad I fly out tomorrow morning to go back to Michigan. :doh:

x2 :D

both my 88s have the c101 connector.

what's wrong with the current engine?

when the tires are pointed straight ahead, are they centered front-to-back in the wheel well?

probably an add-a-leaf in there. do all the leafs have the same shape ends? pictures would help.

I would do: -31" recapped mud terrains (or used MTs) -stock jeep rims (not necessarily the ones on my jeep, but Jeep rims none the less) -1.5 or 2" pucks up front -extended chevy shackle in the rear. -WJ lower control arms

any diesel fuel get in that tank? :rotfl2:

your shocks will work fine on 2" of lift.

been a while but I seem to remember there is more spline available than our pitman arms need.

the shackles we speak of drop a chevy truck 2" (they have a different suspension geometry than us). they are the same width and a bit longer than MJ shackles and so provide a small amount of lift. :thumbsup:

have you cleaned the throttle body out? specifically the IAC?

if it suddenly goes missing, I might know why... :D

how many of the vacuum lines have you replaced so far? is it 4wd? do those vacuum lines still exist?

far as I can tell, you're blazing a new path. :thumbsup:

the engine uses practically nothing to idle. it is not advised that you shut off your engine on downhills or at any time while on a road. you lose your power brakes and steering and in the event of an emergency situation, you will be at a severe disadvantage. the best mileage from the older jeeps comes from maintenance and good sensors and driving like my grandma.
