ford 9" rear brake system
comanche12 replied to comanche12's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
did u weld the caliper bracket or bolt on? also did u grind the axle flare to allow rotor fit on? I'm gonna try this one method and seem really easy for me http://fordfuelinjection.com/bronco/bra ... -disk.html -

Sounds great! But I tend leave engine running while park like check the deep water puddle, winch, mce car out, etc. Even I tend put parking brake on while I'm park my Subaru even it's automatic anyway Pete- where did u find those specific tube for fitting in lug stud to sit rotor up good? Edit: it's pretty silly to turn engine off everytime I park and put in gear -
ford 9" rear brake system
comanche12 replied to comanche12's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
sorry for bring this thread back alive from graveyard I'm finally able to buy rear brake parts for my big bearing 9" rear 5x5.5 pattern with 31spline (I gotta pull axle out and recount plus check the pattern too for make sure ) also I'm planning to go to junkyard 30mins south from me to pull explorer rear disc brakes out this week but now I have idea. :idea: What if i just find a bracket for caliper that able bolt on my axle or weld it up. then find caliper that have parking brake mechanism inside the caliper like I did some research- old Cadillac eldorando have like those kind of caliper. So the question is as do any one of you know which cheap brackets that can bolt on my rear axle and which rotor that can fit on too? btw my current rims are 15" so I don't know if they can fit over this disc conversion? -

iiroc from alldata with info about 4.0l spec- quoted from all data: Minimum 250 ohms per inch (3,000 ohms per foot) Maximum 1,000 ohms per inch (12,000 ohms per foot) one of my wire that i measures is about 300 ohms and the wire is about 6 inches edit: i just read it again. its said per inch :doh: so its should be about 1200 ohm for 6 inches wire? -

i just tested the sparkplug wire, they r within the spec so i pull the cylinder 3 sparkplug where its most easy to reach... haha so i looked at it, its look in good shape and look like new but havent measure the gap. i lost my measure for the gap :doh: but here reason i post this is because i just notice that this sparkplug is Bosch platinum plus... don't those brand sparkplug tend have problem with ignition as i remember? -

I just started my mj up. let it ran until warm up. After about 180*F, checked the MAP vacuum hose again- everything is fine, so I rev it up. engine is still choking on about 2-3k its like it have misfire, run lean, mistiming on ignition, etc. :( its like ecu won't let me rev up while floor it. only able be smooth while gentle rev engine up. maybe check fuel pressure? rent pressure gauge from autozone? check the ignition(advance/retard) time? :hmm: -
damn i miss! oh well blame on my subaru begin addict drifting in snow storm last night lol

sweet! i love that movie animation cars... can't wait to see cars 2! thanks to let me know! :thumbsup:

well I actually just checked TPS, MAP and IAC. TPS read 4.88v from wire(lt blu) that applied 5v and .3v from the inputput wire to ecu(yel/grn) so i adjusted the tps to make the input wire read from .3v to .8v and test it by maunal open the throttle body blade to make sure it read fine. its read up to 4.88v perfect After TPS, I checked the MAP vacuum hoses and its was noticeable loose on the TB port so I push the vacuum back into the TB proper. Afterward, I decided to removed the Idle Air Control or whatever its called, its pretty cover with build up of carbon, cleaned it out with the carb cleaner and plugged IAC back on the TPS piece of cake. I havent started my engine to test the issue again since its get late so tomorrow ill do it. -
Yesterday, its been snowstorm so I was began dying to test my comanche's 4x4 so I decided to do it! 4x4 works great! Well but during last night after test drive, i left it outside so i can paint the hitch for my friend's impreza in the garage. So, I'm gonna put my MJ back in garage. I let the engine warming up. After little warm up, I rev up engine gently and its rev up smooth but after good warming up, I did rev up again to compare the little colder temp and operation temp- engine won't rev up to about 4500, its choked(sputtering) on like 2-3k then upshift light blink but its in neutral then finally rev to 4500 then choke again :???: the choke issue did occur same thing when I was drove my mj around. :hmm: Check the tps and map? I'm don't have good knowledge with MAP compare to MAF though. -87 4.0l with ba 10/5-
