  1. True! I broke a single fog light and that was it. I was going about 10mph also..

    chain saws...

    Stihl are great saws but a little pricey for someone who won't use it that much. Husky is made in Switzerland and are just as good as a stihl.

    Pete don't buy a Husquarvna from lowes!! The quality of their Husky products are a "homeowner" brand and are not as reliable. I would recommend going to a Husky power equipment dealer and get a quality Husky saw from them. Also remember you can hagle on the price at most power equipment dealers! :thumbsup: I purchased a Husky 355? I believe last year for $265. It has an 18" bar and plenty of power to upgrade to a 20".
  4. The horrible Chrysler trans blew and someone smart installed the AW4 into the 94 ZJ.. Also 93 was the only year to have a factory installed AW4.
  5. That crash was a neck breaker literally! I got in a fender bender in my MJ and nothing happened to my truck but a Honda civic was totaled.
  6. Thanks I will mess with it Monday and let you know.
  7. I still get soo upset when I see a great looking MJ like that in a JY. I would love to have that truck and put it back together! Good find though..
  8. Thanks! That helps a lot. I did do a compression check and it held a steady 122psi. I also adjusted the valve lash to I think 0.05 which was only a hair looser than what they were already set at. The guy I bought it from(original owner off a PA farm) just installed a new starter. So he may have messed up the timing when he installed it. Maybe he took the flywheel off and put it back on wrong. :dunno: Very possible
  9. It is a single cylinder 4 stroke motor. I was thinking the timing must be off after messing with it for awhile today. Looks like I will need to invest in a repair manual so I can time it properly. :fs1: The spark is great and all the grounds are good, it also has a new batt and starter.
  10. Hey at least that person stripped all the good parts before sending it to the crusher.
  11. Ok guys I got an 86 Bayou 300 to play around with. I cleaned the carb but all it does it backfire through the carb. I mean this thing literally blows a flame from the intake boot. What would cause this?
  12. Lift the rear up and take the sending unit out when the engine is not running and cold. Then pour your coolant into the bottle and wait for it to come out of the temp hole in the head. If it doesn't come out then you need to drill a hole in the T-STAT. When you do this procedure you can guarantee there is no air in the system unless you have a cracked bottle or bad cap. Also you may have the wrong water pump on there.
  13. I take my drums off every other oil change and get the brake dust out and re-adjust the shoes. O and my rear prop valve is disabled for better braking power.

    Rage!!!!!

    Why wouldn't you just buy some shoes from autozone or advance autoparts?
  15. Hey Dad! rogfg67 is my father!
  16. Just go to the junk yard and grab a full guage cluster from a cherokee with a cable driven speedo. You also need the temp sending unit located on the top of the motor next to the valve cover on the drivers side, and the oil sending unit located next to the oil filter. :thumbsup:
  17. Ok thanks guys
  18. I was just wondering if the 2wd and 4wd pads are the same in the front? I bought a Jeep tonight that used to be 4wd and now its 2wd so I can't really look up the parts because I don't know where the front axle tube came from. O and before you guys scratch your head and wonder why someone would go from 2wd to 4wd... I bought a 94 XJ country from an auction in FL in MINT condition, but some dealer decided to replace the blown trans and engine with a NEW 4.0 and 2wd trans and axle! I plan on stripping my 92XJ to use the 4wd componants.
  19. Try calling RC, they should sell you just the aal.
  20. Just swap the block of which ever motor you want into any vehicle and retain all the sensors, intake, exhaust, and wire harness from the old motor.
  21. I would say in CT you prolly need a plate on the CJ. I would just throw your XJ plates on it and go to be safe..
  22. I need to do the same thing. Will I loose any diff fluid when I pull the DS shaft?
  23. X2 replace the wheel cylinder. If it weren't the wheel cylinder then you would get air on both sides.
  24. I towed my XJ with a Dodge Caravan and had no problems. I used a dolly with no brakes, and just made sure I gave myself enough room to stop. :thumbsup: Caravan= 3800lbs XJ=3300lbs Dolly= 500lbs
  25. It sounds more like a tick and not a knock. I haven't done a compression check on it, but I have a good guage so I will try that, what should I be looking for? I'm guessing obviously a difference between cylinders but also whether it holds the PSI?
