Chunk, A 1984 XJ
eaglescout526 replied to eaglescout526's topic in Member Projects: Other Cool Stuff
Lol!! Sadly this is true. But if this wasn’t NOS decal, I’d fiddle with it more. That and the limited part of the decal is not friendly to moving. -
The Alabama Turbo Diesel

If I still worked at a mopar dealer I would’ve helped you out as much as I could’ve. I remember there being a couple valve covers still around for the thing as NOS. -

The more I look and see it, the harsher I can be on my self for the job I did. But to do this by myself in an hour, sun beating down, heat rising and taking my time with the patience to keep it straight while fighting such of a reminder to do so, I think I can come away proud of what I did and how good it still looks. Thus giving birth to the "84 Limited Concept" idea(Thanks Carter!). No, the name isnt changing of the project but I like the sound of that title. Heres putting on the pin-striping for the first time solo It goes to show you are your own worst critic but the job I did is growing on me. -

Gambler wheel differences
eaglescout526 replied to coheed's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Lol. I am doing the same for one of my Jeep wheels that got trashed. Rather than recycle it, I’ll just use it to keep my hose tidy. Now if I had to guess, I would guess one style is the early like what would be found on YJs/XJs and MJs while the other could be a TJ styling and needed that center hole to be bigger for the different axle shaft ends. Just a guess. I don’t really have the access to give definitive answers anymore. -

Front air shocks are in. Pretty easy actually. I think the only thing I hated was how the instructions said to tie the lines to the brakes and then have them go to the front bumper where the fill nozzle is which kinda has the hoses back tracking but it keeps the lines out of any crush points. If I raise the shocks too high, Chunk will look like the front end of the DeLorean in Back to the Future Part III haha. -
I remember the MJ in this movie. Hilarious movie too.

Wiper Delay Module Compatibility
eaglescout526 replied to TeKdo's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Believe it or not, the rear wiper circuit is completely separate from the front wiper unlike todays vehicles. So any wiper delay module will do. And you can’t just stuff the module in and have wiper delay. You’ll need the switch from the column too. -
Really? I could’ve swore I’ve seen them as the same part number too. Guess I’ll be looking at my 86 parts book to double check.

Comanche rear Mudflap template
eaglescout526 replied to JoeM88's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Why? You’re not looking for exact size and shape of the MJ flap are ya? You might be searching for a while to find a set for the MJ. I recall someone on here actually used XJ rears on the MJ and had no complaints. I’ll find it later this evening for ya. -
Isn’t vacuum typically read as hg? And not as psi.
-
If this is fuel pressure. 15psi is where it should be. I’ll look in my TBI book but I know the regulator should have it at 15 at idle.

2.5L 4 Speed Clutch Kit
eaglescout526 replied to JimManche17's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Not many options out there for the 2.5L. Course there’s only two transmissions that were ever available with the 2.5L. Both are the same transmission. Just one is a 4 speed and the other is a 5. I believe luk may be the only manufacture. -
1986 2.5L ~ NO START
eaglescout526 replied to White_Comanche's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
If I had to say it’s about 5 Hp less at take off but the system cycles off during hard acceleration to compensate. Otherwise you really don’t know you have the AC on. -
If it’s for the 2.5L, I bought one and had no issues. I haven’t heard of anyone having this many issues with a radiator fitting. 2.5L radiator remained largely unchanged until the 2.5L was discontinued.

Fixing damage in Steering column.
eaglescout526 replied to 97for86's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
First ouch that sucks. Second, nice brushed dash bezel Third. Looks like they screwed up the gear that the lock and rod work on. Hard to tell. Might have to yank a column if you arent comfortable diving in and fixing it. -
