Nope. But she does need to be travel worthy and I'm planning on that once the ZJ gear box gets rebuilt.

Lol. I did not ask him about shipping, but since I'm gonna be up there, ill be able to pick it up. I'm hoping I will have a way for it to come down here but if not ill just throw it in the XJ until it comes down here.

Yup! Its the factory one I've been searching for(Still want one for the XJ). @rylee144 informed me about this truck and I contacted the owner and he said to throw him a price so I did and now I have a brush guard waiting for me when I get up there. It needs rust repair but I can manage that.

Well this ruins the surprise but I got the brush guard from the owner.

Actually, I just recently learned that CC can host short MP4 files in PMs. Havent tried it with an actual post yet.

I found a piece of mine under the vents in front of the center console.

Actually yes! I will be up there June 11-20th. So I will actually be able to do things and get y’all pics.

I know the owners manual calls for power steering fluid for power steering but I’m curious as to what some of you may be running in yours. The T-bird says to use ATF for its power steering but I’m curious if anyone runs ATF in their MJ.

Holy moly does my truck ride better now. Wish my past self put the shackle in right. I got the XJ bushing in on the drivers side shackle. Now to do the ZJ gear box as mine is just tired and done with steering. Hopefully I’ll get that back from being rebuilt and I’ll do that swap and should be good to go and should cure the last of the vibrations.

13mm ratchet wrench.

Cruise control stalk wire. That wire runs up from the bottom of the column up to the turn signal stalk.

5012968AA or AB is the Mopar numbers I use. There is an older number of 3300 but the first two are what Chrysler superseded the number to and are readily available still. Hopefully they will help cross-reference. But the Renix 4.0 and 2.5's used the same oil filter so yes they say vertical but you can use it. A good note to remember is us 2.5's float in a sea of 4.0's.

Uh yall may just want to avoid this MJ. @CoastChief went there as did someone else and when he got there, that MJ was molested with hardly anything MJ specific left other than the cab, rear flares and bed. There is a reason why it is there. It has minor bed damage from something but someone totaled it and took the money and ran.

That's actually what goes there is 4x6 speakers so yes. As long as you have the wiring, throw em in.

I just went and looked. It does not. It describes the injector "pulse" which is determined by the ECU for how long it should spray before the ECU breaks contacts and does another pulse. Refers to the MS-1700 for testing and apparently that machine did a lot and I mean a lot.

This got me thinking. Prior to my ownership my grandfather asked me how I liked his "replacement J-hooks" for the gas tank straps. I will have to snap a pic of his genius work but All it is is a long threaded rod, threaded into where the hook would sit. Anyways this makes me think that I could have the nuts tightened just high enough that the tank could be slightly tilted enough and with that sag only exaggerates it further. This has me really thinking, good stuff gogmorgo!

Another 2.5L TBI book for the collection.

So that's not a true Chief as it doesn't bare the JH class.

To add on to the list of axles the Honda passport and Isuzu rodeo from the 90’s have disc D44’s

Wow mustve been a day where I missed your comment, its an extra step in the process but its worth a shot.

Ive done that too with some success. I still have to catch it at the right moment though. I have another theory but I don't think it will solve the problem. Anyways I do have this topic posted somewhere if we do want to continue this without hijacking this thread.

You too huh? I went through every piece attached and replaced some pieces to the tank and came up empty handed. Mostly what I came up with is watch the pump and know the volume that goes in your tank and listen for the nozzle to start sounding like it is filling up a cup or bottle to the top.

That probably wasn't cheap for them to do, but that is rather neat piece of history right there.

Update 5/21. Been a bit Upgraded temp sensor with Mopar one due to my stupid self cleaning the needle to find out it is reading wrong. Thought it was the temp sensor but no it was me when I wiped a speck of the needle to the gauge. Oh well got a Mopar with better piece of mind Rebuilt clutch master, I still think theres an air leak somewhere and I think the threaded fittings need Teflon tape. Side note the fluid is holding and still the red color from the grease and not pitch black. Also learned that my self from four years ago was pretty damn stupid to Jeeps and maintenance in general. Decided to finally tackle the shackles(incidental rhyme) and come to find out I mounted one of them backwards. Went and looked at Gjeeps restoration progress to see how his were mounted and sure enough the drivers side is back wards after FOUR years! Probably the cause of my semi rough ride for the drivers side. Anyways, I got a set of XJ shackles and harvested the bushings from them. After a few hours with a ball joint press and shaving the bushing metal I finally pressed ONE in and decided to call it a day once I got every thing back together. And yes I made sure to mount the passenger side right with the metal face of the shackle facing out back. Now to do the drivers side tomorrow and fix the orientation.

That’s funny. This one is still one of my favorites of Jeep memes
