  1. Just got home from work. Have not checked the vin yet. Remember the trans was rebuilt. Could something have been out in wrong or backwards? PO said he didn't know if it was "normal" before he got it but after the trans was rebuilt.
  2. Interesting about the tach. I'm not sure what the model is...
  3. It definitely acts like it shifts into a 4th gear. I was questioning myself too after a few hours of researching the trans, transfer case this thing has. This is really starting to bug me. This is the reason I got it for a steal BTW! The PO was fed up..
  4. This did get a little more techy then I originally thought. Thanks for moving. I can't figure out how to change the title of this thread. I did it once on the old CC program but never on this. Maybe 86 RPM issue or something like that would be more fitting.
  5. If my thought process is working correctly with how the linkage works, that lever all the way back would be 2hi..
  6. Played with this a little more this am. It most definitely shifts into fourth gear. Taking off really slow it shifts into 4th at about 35-40 mph. MPH is correct, I checked with GPS. I played with the 4 wheel drive a little. WTF? Looks like a vacuum motor that I presume runs off the selec-trac switch on the console. I could not the the linkage to move at all to move it presumably into 4lo. The lever on the t case itself is all the way back as in spun clock wise to the rear of the truck. The case itself is leaking so ill have to pull it apart to seal it up away. I've been inside a 231 a few times so I'm not too scared of this one. Already have. Seems you like wiring! I don't have the patience. But I know a guy.. :shake: Guy in my jeep club is a mopar guy. He's got a few buggies with magnum power.
  7. Already have. Seems you like wiring! I don't have the patience. But I know a guy.. Jim, you can feel the engine just cranking like a mother. I thought of that too, but I don't thnk it would be possible to hit 65-70mph. I'm going to play with it tomorrow to see if I can learn more.
  8. What the heck could be wrong that it turns super high rpms? The trans has been rebuilt recently and the t case has been apart 3 times I guess. PO thinks it has something to do with the t case. He also says 4lo doesn't work but I haven't tried it yet. Lookin at SBChysler swaps.. But it does run nice right now.
  9. Pretty much "stole" it.
  10. Ya never know!
  11. Who's got a craptastic V6 auto 4x4 and what rpm does it run at 55 and 65? Yes this truck only has 72k on it. But that isn't extremely uncommon for a v6 I guess!
  12. 86, v6/auto/np207 Leaving its home Arriving at its new home Took it to town. Something is wrong here... 3700 rpms at 65 with stock tires.. At the DMV Truck is wet in the following pictures but it really is that shiny! Been repainted. POs pics
  13. You have knocked this out of the park! Awesome!
  14. My new 86 that I got for a steal.
  15. Not a good place on a vehicle to use cheap parts. Get some MOOGs.
  16. This is what I'm getting next year. I use wood now which works great but as others have said, mess, more work etc. I replaced my fuel oil boiler in my house this fall with a propane boiler and plan to run a line from the tank to the garage. So one tank for house and garage on keep fill. Talked to the company that installed my new boiler and for a 75k btw Hot Dawg it's around $1500 installed. I have a 32X32 with 12' ceilings. Plan to keep it at 40 degrees all the time and turn up to 60 when I'm working.
  17. Thank you. I'm really enjoying running around with this whether its wheeling or just cruising back roads. Can go pretty much anywhere a SxS can go.
  18. Went out for a ride yesterday. Burned up a full tank of gas cruising and even shot a few grouse! Checking out a new boat landing on a very remote lake. Home at 10pm from the trip. Might go again tomorrow!
  19. Doesn't even say how many miles..
  20. Check out the UA BDS dizzle KJ build.
  21. Is it possible to use a newer bell housing on a older AX15 to get rid of the internal slave? I have a older one I would like to use. If its possible, I suppose it will be impossible to find.
  22. Getting to be that time of the year...
  23. It took a beating too! Notice the white spot in the middle of it! That's rock. Also pushed a dead tree over. Haha
