Brand new clutch when I did the external slave swap. New clutch pad, pressure plate, bearing the whole 9 yards. Been in for 3000-ish miles and hadn't vibrated like this until last week.

It seems to be coming from the engine compartment but it's difficult to say for sure. I replaced the harmonic balancer just to be safe initially (mine was getting up there in age and the rubber was in bad shape). So front u-joints could very well be it but I will say it's been very difficult to pinpoint where it's coming from. I've been chasing a bad wheel bearing-esque noise for the past 1000 miles on this thing and having a camper shell makes everything seem to resonate and it's difficult to track down where the noise is coming from. Holy............

Crawled under the truck yesterday and looked around/felt around/pried on stuff with a big ol' screwdriver. Rear end seems to have some slop in it, I'm able to get a good 10-15 deg of rotation on the driveshaft while tranny is in neutral and rear wheels are chocked. Front was actually a little worse. What confuses me is that the vibration completely goes away at any speed if I let off the gas or press in the clutch. U-joints themselves were all replaced about 3000 miles ago (tranny swap to external slave) and don't seem to have any play in them from what I could see. As far as trouble shooting, I'm thinking pull the front driveshaft and test drive. If it's still there, put the front back in and pull the rear. Test again. If it's a driveshaft u-joint that should reveal it. If it's something else, I'll go from there. Thoughts?

Those are fairly new (replaced 3-ish years ago...only 2-4,000 miles on them since). I will check tightness though.

Since the MJ has started pulling daily duty, a lot of issues have begun to rear their ugly heads. The most concerning at this point is a heavy vibration I'm getting under load. Like if you lug the motor. Cruising in any gear at any speed, I'm getting heavy heavy vibrations while accelerating but if I let off the gas and coast it immediately goes away. I have a few ideas but wanted to hear what y'all had to say before I dug into it. With a 1.5 hr commute each way, I don't have a lot of time to diagnose so I'm looking to nip this in the bud ASAP the first time. Thanks! '92. AX-15, 4.0L, 4x4

Help needed to find A/C Hose
Tex06 replied to Richard 91's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Found one. Jeep air sells it for the 2.5L. I can get the p/n tomorrow. This is what I bought for my '92 with the 4.0L. Fits from the condensor to the drier. -
91' MJ - Temp gauge bouncing around
Tex06 replied to CaptainPatchy's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I pulled one from a JY. Finding OEM was difficult for me at the time (a couple years back), I think I only saw 1 or 2 on eBay. -
Sweet. Another H.O. like mine! Welcome to the club, do you have any prior jeep experience?
-
While I love taking pictures and building cars, I hate uploading and trying to make sense of it. I.E. I may not do a build thread but I would totally do a picture vomit post. Just a bunch of pics with no explanation.

'76 Buick Skylark S/R from my Sig line. Currently have the car broken down in a million pieces, putting a Speedtech Performance Streetfighter front end under it which is requiring major frame modifications.

Installed a new cruise control clip. My first ever 3D printed part I've purchased and couldn't be happier! Also found out the mice enjoyed my MOPAR spark plug wires while I was gone.... gonna get a set of AC Delco ones to replace.

Any idea on the extended/collapsed length of these Cruiser? I stumbled into a set of AEV dualsport Bilstein 5100s for dirt cheap and I'm thinking they just might work when I lift my truck.

This sounds EXACTLY like the problem I had. If you can't get it to replicate, attach the leads like I suggested, tape the multimeter to the hood and go for a drive. It shouldn't dip below 5VDC ever...if it does when it's bucking, I'd look real hard at that solder joint and the wiring coming from the ECU to the IAC and TPS.

Hey, HEY NOW!!!! I've been busy guys....and mostly separated from my MJ for the past almost 2 years. Focusing on my other project since I'm on assignment in Georgia (Pete, I'm in Snellville every weekend until August, fyi). This is my response to HC's message if I ever fixed my problem: I absolutely did. I had a bad solder joint in the wiring harness. The CPU sends a 5VDC signal to both the TPS and the IAC from the same wire which splits right above the valve cover in the main harness loom. You can test this pretty easily with a decent multimeter and a piercing probe (link below). Figure out which wire is +5VDC from your computer to each of those sensors (I had +5V DC on each one as long as it was unplugged). Key on should be able to find this. Next, hook the piercing probe to the wire (should still get +5VDC). Hook the connector back up to the sensor and start the engine. Check voltage (rev the motor a bit too just to see if there's any change). Do the same for the other sensor. If the voltage drops below maybe 4.96VDC on either one you likely have a problem. Mine dropped to 1.77VDC with the engine running but if I unplugged one of the sensors it jumped back up to 5VDC. You should also check the voltage coming from the ECU to make sure that it is +5VDC.....I want to say it's pin 26 but that's going strictly off memory and it's been a few years since I had any issues with this. I'd offer a wiring diagram to help but my books are all with my Jeep in Louisiana and I'm in Georgia on a project at the moment. Seriously, once I saw the voltage drop it took me 15 minutes to trace out where the two wires came together, unwrap, resolder, and tidy everything back up. I had thrown probably $700 in sensors, fuel injectors, etc in it at that point. Talk about a dumb, easy fix. Hope this helps, if you have more questions, hit me up. My MJ is separated from me at the moment but I'll tell ya what I can from memory! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R8XJWKX/ref=sspa_dk_detail_1?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B07R8XJWKX&pd_rd_w=9T9KT&pf_rd_p=48d372c1-f7e1-4b8b-9d02-4bd86f5158c5&pd_rd_wg=JMSa3&pf_rd_r=TMCHKQMPDWJCZYVG70KJ&pd_rd_r=e6166fb5-859d-4621-91ba-9ae9c33a2823&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzMU1NRldTUEw2TllWJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNjc1ODE1UVk2NEtBNVVXRDU4JmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAwNDc5NDMxMkhMSFI4S1c1VjEyJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfZGV0YWlsJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Possible. I have an H.O. and only have one bottle in my bumper.

Basically exactly where you found it. The cruise control won't operate without it properly.

Windsheild and passenger side window.

😳 that's it? Jeez, for that price I can't believe I've been putting it off. -

Tex06 replied to Rob1989's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Curious what it runs ya for the windshield. I need a new one but have been putting it off for a while. -
Driver, other than your speedo being backwards I like that setup. Do you have a little more info on it?

Don't have much experience with the cold but in the heat down here I always check rubber (tires, hoses, and belts), fluids (my 4.0 only leaks a tiny bit of oil), and that's really about it. I carry a mechanic's toolset on me as well as a spare tire and a jack (both original items are missing). If it's a daily driver, you probably know best what, if any, issues you have. Get 'em fixed now if you have 'em (weak brakes, worn clutch, engine knocks/ticks, worn bearings, steering slop, and other big ticket items we tend to put off). My $.02

I went to update my signature and I'm not able to save it without deleting my fuelly.com badge which shows my fuel consumption. It was there until I tried to change it. Is there anyway to get the tag back? Here's the image I had before:

I've got a '92 LWB that I'll volunteer. I can probably install one weekend this month. -
