I’m kinda sold on gettin one of these. $20k for a base bare bones modular truck that looks like an MJ. Slate is also headed by a former Chrysler exec which makes sense for the styling cues of an 80’s truck and the MJ.

Lol. Perhaps.

I still think 84 and 85 are the most under appreciated years of the XJ

Power wire could be messed up. Verifying will require the ECU to be unplugged and verify continuity to the TPS from the ECU input and ECU output. Now I’ll admit, backprobing that damn plug sucks.

Yeah that switch was discontinued back in 2021.

Be very very careful if you can take it apart. There are 3 fingers on each contact rail, it is very very easy to screw them up.

Is it the original TPS? I found out you can take them apart and clean the internal contacts. Aftermarket, it varies. Also A and B should get you the voltage from the position of the throttle opening, B and C should get you ECU voltage. A and B should be 4.6-4.7V at WOT.

You sure? That pot can be adjusted pretty far.

Lol hybrids work. I’d love to have a 229, 207 and a 231 as spares to see what I can mix and match.

Lol! I would love some pics of this since ive got the 207 in my XJ. I didnt think you could remove the speed gear unless you removed the tail shaft of the 207.

JBWeld is pretty good too.

That logo insert is better anyways haha. Im just biased.

Yeahhhh thats a special hell we have to endure. Wait, did you actually get the electric speed sensor on the 207?

I found the magazine on eBay. There’s a couple. https://www.ebay.com/itm/404923501340?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=7gCIrKjYTsi&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=n7myxbO3SYC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.com/itm/256878650342?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=M2p114lmQOe&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=n7myxbO3SYC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

No. I probably will this evening.

I need this now. Haha.

The 87-96 clusters have a pot on the tach that can be adjusted and more than likely read a V8

Oh yeah!! Duh, course how often is anyone taking that spacer out of their Jeep? Most of us probably dont even know we have one there till we replace the steering gear.

4wd light actually. Mounts by the blower motor on the pass side. I am curious as to what that plastic thing is.

I do not remember what we were replacing on my dads F150 Harley truck but it was something that was a nightmare to replace and put us in little bit of a pickle. I literally have done a good job to not remember that haha.

I have never ever seen either of those two be involved with the reverse lamps. I know power goes to the switch, to the trans fuse and out to the lamps. As to what connectors, I am not sure but that can’t be right with what you have.

I know the dryer and o-rings need to be replaced for the 134 conversion. Condenser I have heard you can use the old one but should convert. You can keep the existing valves on the compressor, you just need to get the 134 adapters.

4.0 or 2.5?

Could’ve. This is the original TPS to my MJ. Which makes sense why I at one point would have power, then lose it and so on. I broke one of the fingers putting it back together. Really tricky with that spring. But I’m gonna test the voltage aspect at least and see if the cleaning worked.

Not sure if anyone was curious what goes on inside of these but I think I found out why these fail Or well be intermittent when working and sending voltage. I do not know what is on the inside but I can speculate this is why these fail or become working intermittently.
