If you have an HO, sometimes you can fit a 51085, which is even bigger, its a V10 filter

We carry Mopar filters... but from what that article said, theyre just Purolators with a Mopar logo slapped on

Well Fiat owns Ferrari... maybe theyll come out with a Jeep supercar... erm Superjeep :yes:

Well any filter is better than no filter, I think neglect is a large contributor to these issues, and religious maintenance can help, but if were just talking filters, the fram works but its junk

I invite you to cut one down, and compare the internals to a wix... Youll never buy a fram again, they are just cheap crap

You misunderstood me, the old microguard filters were purolators, and they were decent, the new microguards are now manufactured by fram

:drool: :bowdown:

I dunno how many of you fellow CCrs shop at OReillys, but if youre used to buying our house microguard filters, STOP... They are no longer Purolators, they are now Fram... Great cost cutting measures :fs1:

With the 3.07s, my MJ doesnt start pulling in fifth until around 85... Done worse I guess, got the ole Dak up over the speedo too, and it goes to 125, found out later I had a shot pitman arm

Ive got my MJ up over 100... 3.07s and 31s FTW!

This was mine awhile ago. Has changed a little since then

First of all I want to apologize for the length of this post, I am seemingly unable to shorten my stories Today my buddy decided to buy an 88 Toyota Landcruiser (after my repeated attempts to convince him to buy an XJ) Of course, I'm his mechanic buddy so I came along for the ride. Body and interior are clean, the truck doesnt start though so I start to diagnose. Owner happens to be another friend of mine, and he believes the reason it won't fire was a bad starter. But after we got a charge on the battery I turned the key and it cranked fine, but no fire... so starter was fine. Found a bad ignition fuse :???: but I replaced it and it fired up, and ran like crap. After pulling a plug and discovering that they were HORRIBLY fouled (the worst ive ever seen, mix of oil, ash, and rust), I replaced them all and the thing fired and ran like a top. Drove the thing back to my buddies apartment, and thats where the fun begins. So on the interior I started to discover things that didnt work, no functioning gauges (except speedo), no radio, no interior lights, no door locks and a couple exposed wires hanging out of the dash. On the outside we had more electrical woes, no brake/tail/marker lights, no high beams, one headlight was very dim. First order of business was to check/replace the other fuses... Found three bad ones(not counting ignition), now I have working guages, but nothing else, one circut has a short and immediately pops fuses. IMy largest concern at this point was to get all exterior lights functioning, so the FJ could be drivable. The brake light bulbs looked good, but I replaced them anyways. When I went to do them, I pulled out the whole assembly and found the first issue... There were about ten of those little blue connectors that splice a single wire into another wire... and about five different cut and exposed wires just laying behind it, hooked up to a trailer logic module. Following further, I found more blue connectors and exposed wires on the other side, and the trailer harness next to the hitch was duct taped to the hitch... Great. So I fixed all the wiring (removed all trailer harness) but still get no power. So I venture back into the interior, double check fuses, all good. Then start tearing apart the dash hoping to find the source for the random exposed wires... Effing wires were everywhere, bundles of wiring all zip tied into place, random fuseholders, home stereo cables, etc. This all leads me to my discovery, at some point the previous owner, had installed (poorly) an aftermarket radio. And amp... And when he sold it he hacked all of it out and stuck the factory radio in to fill the gap. Do to the excessive length of this post I'm not going to even begin on what happened in the engine compartment. (It was horrible) Pretty much the end of this story is that I am now exhausted, at home. And have yet to get those lights to work. Oh yeah and the alternator isnt charging (Surprise!). He only paid $500 for the truck, so I guess it isnt bad, I'm just the guy stuck rewiring everything.

Forgot to mention that neither my MJ or by brothers TJ have cats, has an awesome rumble on the low end... And sounds like a TVR on the high, I can't get enough of it :thumbsup:

:agree: Dunno about most stores, but at my oreillys if you ask for a cotter pin, theyll usually give it to you... Or charge 15 cents or whatever

Well... I like pepsi, Although I like Dr.Pepper even more

:agree: Do you mean the E-fan, If its shorted out then there is the slightest chance that it could cause it... But I'm doubtful

Any plans?

I kinda figured... I ordered a universan round Mr.Gasket shifter boot that should let me use a hose clamp to seal around the shifter, ill let you guys know how it turns out since its a common problem

Yes

Our catalog here at work says 4.0 quarts including the filter

:clapping:

I think i may do that since I can't for the life of me figure out why mine refuses to work

Yeah, I'm looking for the inner one that seals out the cockpit.... I'm a little to cheap for $30-50 though... Ill just have to make something work I guess
