  1. I'd do a braided replacement. FWIW, the factory used the wrong brake fluid on the assembly line and it ate up the inside of the hoses. This caused debris from that to get into the master and slave cylinders and ruin them. We were told to replace master, slave, and hose all together and use Castrol GT LMA fluid as the cylinders were British.
  2. Added 29, 30, and 32. Fuel pump ground upgrade, adding Sentinel headlamps, and converting to SAE threaded oil filters. www.cruiser54.com
  3. The same tired old litany again. And again. And again. :shake: You need to come up with some fresh material. Litany: A tedious recital or repetitivly boring series of meaningless gibberish. The truth lives on. I'm spreading the word.
  4. You're describing exactly what I've done twice now. HO motor into a Renix. Computer could give 2 $#!&s what the engine is. Did I ever post this for you? HO myth buster Renix in 90 made 182 HP. HO in 91 made 190 HP. That's 8 HP difference. HO only made more HP than Renix at higher RPMs and not a bit more torque. HO had 58 mm throttle body versus a 52 mm throttle body on a Renix and also had a better design header. See where I'm going with this? The whole 8HP was not mostly from the head, but from the bigger TB and better exhaust manifold. Put a 60mm TB from www.strokedjeep.com on your present head, eliminate the "crush" in your headpipe with proper re-routing, and go for it. HO stands for Highly Overrated. __________________
  5. I did the tale of the tape 2 weekends ago.
  6. Take it from a guy who parts out Jeeps. Get a donor......
  7. Been off roading since 1967. Why in the hell do you wanna try to control 3 pedals with only 2 feet? The AW4 is the best auto trans ever.
  8. Why do you want a 5 speed? Did you ever see the "before" pics of my 87 when I got it?
  9. I put ZJ seats in a 94 xJ, which are about a bolt-in 97 and later. Better know how to weld and have steel to use.
  10. That's comforting.....
  11. Never imagined you even kept a photo of anything Renix..............
  12. Where are you wiggling the harness? Ever reviewed my Tip 3 and 18? And BTW, this is progress, ain't it?
  13. Keep the Renix. Want more power?
  14. ^^ 4 posts up. Read much? I read. Not much on photos though.......
  15. Turn signal switch in the column. Unplug the switch at the base of the column and clean the contacts and plug it back in. It's that long skinny flat one. You replaced both flashers?
  16. Shouldn't be smoking. What fuse did you check? #2? Radio/cig liter? Check the fusebox for power there.
  17. There's a bracket on the auto throttle body that you need.
  18. I've mixed and matched parts from 87 to 95. Actually made one engine out of 3 different ones for my son in law's XJ. Me, I'd address the wiring that's there. Carry on.
  19. The 7.5 amp fuse in the fuse box only affects the Power/Comfort switch and the reverse lights.
  20. Waste of time and effort IMHO. Get a bored throttle body for a Renix that's bigger than a stock HO throttle body. Match port the intake manifold and intake ports on the head to the Renix intake gasket.
