Oem Replacement parts
Tex06 replied to a bum with money's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Yep. BWD might get ya home in a pinch....then again it might not, lol. I've found that NAPA electronics aren't too terrible, but a lot of my spares come from the local pull-a-part. They usually charge $3-10 per whatever and I'll either bench test it or just swap it in and see if it works. If not, take it right back and they'll credit ya (which I can use on another one!). -
Sounds like you need to start scrounging the junkyards for a same or similar year XJ. Pull as much as you can from it, HVAC box (if it's cracked you can fiberglass it. I just did mine), A/C controls, wiring harness, compressor bracket, and all the pictures you can take before and while you pull this stuff off. I've got an '89 XJ 2-door that I'm trying to get rid of, problem is it's in another state (Georgia). I'll try and find any pics I may have of it.

Well that was a very cool read. Didn't know Bendix had done an electronic fuel injection system that far back. The Corvette Rochester systems were totally mechanical and a real PITA to work on. Thanks Cruiser!

The folks at jeepair.com are pretty helpful with kits and such. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Replacement AC hose... Which hose?!
Tex06 replied to Skorpyo's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I may have one that I bought that would work. P/N: 56278 made by four seasons. If ya want to give it a shot I can take measurements for ya. Bought it and won't need it (still in the wrapper). -
I've got the BFGs on my Chevy K30 and have 0 complaints about them.

Apparently the '92 uses a Low Pressure Switch and and '96 uses a High Pressure switch........ Shouldn't matter, switch is closed when pressure is within spec, open when it's not. The '96 is 4x the price though....sigh.

Well....ran into a snag or two. Turns out the factory hoses don't have valves on them....and neither does the compressor. So what I'm thinking is I'm going to buy the hoses for a '96 Cherokee (saw one in the junkyard, came with 134a factory and has the charging ports on the hoses). The hookup locations for the evap are the same, condenser looks pretty damn close if not exactly the same, and I'll probably have to get a new accumulator with a low-pressure switch and mount it in the '96 factory location (no idea where it mounted on the '92......it wasn't in my truck when I got it). I'll have to cut the LPS connector off my harness and solder in a '96 style connector. Anybody see issues with this?

Ever find a replacement? -
I've got camo and gator seats that the PO reupholstered. Freaking awesome....I'll snag ya a pic tonight. Most upholstery shops should be able to cut you some foam and either double up on it or replace it.

I just removed my smog equipment on my '92. From what I understand the charcoal canister connects the fuel tank to the air filter housing. I don't believe it would hold pressure anyways. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Learned the hard way V6 to I6 engine swap
Tex06 replied to sdougwilliams's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Not even with a supercharged 4.0? :D Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk -
If you can, backprobe the connector. I had a loose solder joint that threw the TPS and MAP voltage out of whack but only when both were connected. Individual connector probing and the 5V read fine, connect both and it dropped to ~3.2V. I got 12,13, and 24 together everytime. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Random MJ Pre-Build and Lift Questions
Tex06 replied to kryptronic's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
4"lift up front, jks shackles in the rear. 31x10.5 r15 tires and American racing rims (unsure of backspacing, can measure later though). Pic of front control arm drop bracket and rear JKS shackle. What I have now that rubs is P255/75R17 Goodyear wranglers on stock 17" wrangler rims with the 1.25" spacer/adapter. And it definitely rubs. -
You need to find out what they're measuring. There's not enough info for a good troubleshooting session yet. Do they give you a printout in your state? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

I would think lacquer thinner would work. Has the system been open to the environment? Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Well, found out why the A/C was likely disconnected. Hole in the evap casing.... Which means I'll be pulling my carpet son because I bet this thing dumped water all over the floorboards. A little fiberglass, a little paint and it should be good to go. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Random MJ Pre-Build and Lift Questions
Tex06 replied to kryptronic's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Lot of questions here. I can tell you you'll need more than 4" to clear 32" tires, I'm running stock rims from a 2012 or 2013 Wrangler with roughly 32" diameter tires (whatever came on them and 1.25" spacers) and I scrub in sharp turns. Had 31" before with no issues though. 1992 Pioneer, 4" lift although it may have a little sag to it at this point (ride is good though, used drop brackets for the control arms). Can get you the tire and wheel specs if you like from before, they're in my shed. I also had questions about cooling, my gauge reads 210 normally and climbs as well. I've never heard the aux fan kick on either, although I did test it once to make sure the fan itself was operable (it is). Does anyone know how to test and see if the computer is switching it on at the right time? I've seen temps in the 230+ range while sitting in traffic....I'm halfway through installing A/C and I don't really want to compound an overheating problem in the summertime. -
Other questions: I'm assuming the PAG oil capacity is the same as the original mineral oil. Can anyone confirm? This is what I found do far: COMANCHE 1990-1992 All Engines R12 38.00 Mineral 4.50oz 1989 All Engines R12 32.00 Mineral 6.00oz Also, I managed to break the t'stat. MOPAR number is 55035503... anyone seen a replacement of these? I did a quick search and came up empty so far. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Here's the parts needed for the A/C. It looks like the hoses I have are for the 4 cylinder MJ. I'll have to figure out if it'll fit or not. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk
