You should be #2................ ......................... ...........For all the questions you ask :teehee:

I have no idea right now......bought it a few years ago, and can't remember :nuts: Maybe Campbell-Hausfeld?? Yea, like I said, for small pocket cuts......it's the best for a nice clean cut. And if you can find a use for them tinny half moons......more power to ya :brows:

Like any other tool......an air nibbler has it's pro's and con's. I like it for small cuts, and curves, easy to cut in any direction, that's why it's a little harder to keep a straight cut with the nibbler. great for small pocket cuts, where you can drill a hole, and start from there. It's a little slower cutting than a share, but a lot cleaner cut than a zip wheel. I don't think I paid over $50 for mine, but for the few times that I needed it, and used it........worth it on my end ;) Plus, I bought one that will cut 16 ga cause that's mostly what I'm cutting. I don't think I've ever bogged it down while cutting. You do get a lot of little half moons flying all over the place thought :roll:

Yea......there really pricey, but - http://www.teamcherokee.com/Weatherstrip/index.html Or find some good ones in a junk yard?????

I didn't mean to come off in a bad way......about the info.....and yea I know, we all forget things :roll: What your dealing with is a 20 year old truck......and engine, and what happens to rubber after 20 years?????? Yea, it dry rots, crumbles apart, and looses it's volume over that amount of time. What you need to do, and I've done this, and other have too, is take some time, and $$$, go thru all the info here, and other places and just start at one point and replace all the 20 year old seals and gaskets. It will take a couple of days to do this, but the end results are, no more oil leaks, and better running and service to you :D IE: the rear main seal, oil pan gasket, all at one time. Input and output seals in the tranny, transfercase.........

OK........Thanks for taking the time to check this out aemsee :D Guest I'll just keep looking around and stumble over some more around here :roll:

Yes, if oil is leaking down on to the CPS, that could cause a problem......giving the ECU a bad reading. The CPS use a magnetic field to tell the ECU when the piston is at TDC. Oil coating the sensor could have an effect on the magnet core of the sensor. If the PO did replace the CPS, it still could be a brand new "bad" CPS, others here have had problems with brand new out of the box CPS's, the only way to make sure is to do the ohm's test on it, as described in that link I posted for you. You mentioned that you did some work on the fuel system already.......see, it helps to know that up front.......to give you ideas what to check.

Your auto transmission would be a AW4. The fact that your starting and running now, kind of points to the connector for the CPS......If I had time this morning......I would look up the latest tread on that, but I don't. Follow up on that tech info Here , But you should also go thru the fuel pressure check.

Very common problem- The cable in the window regulator rust out and strips inside the gear. For a quick fix, pull up on the window while turning the hand crank, that will get your window shut. You don't need to take anything apart for that. Long term fix, the window regulator needs to be replaced. TeamCherokee do carry the window regulators, for about $100+ and the only place that carry them. Find a donor in the junk yard, and a 4 door Cherokee will work, only from the front doors and pull the regulator out and switch it with your bad one, or find someone on here whom has some window regulators. There's a write up on changing the regulator around here some where.

Man......I lost some voting today, I hit 700 last night, 750 this morning.....and you guys ran this up over a 1000 today.......catching up now :D I think my minute up.......be right back......

Is that a left coast thing......the "junk" title??? Here in NY, I buy a junker, get a "bill of sale" and the title signed by the owner (name on the title) and just file it, scrap the truck and done. DMV don't know nothing. Plus, we don't sniff test anything older that '96 :D :agree:

Yea......I thought of that too, but he said he had spark. Could be the dreaded connector fouling up intermediately???? Back to Here 3/4 down the page.

My first MJ 6 years ago was a 2.5, BA10, 2wd, I pulled about 20 mpg with it, and a dog going up a hill :roll: The past 2 years I've been running a 4.0, BA10, 4wd and pulling 20 mpg on it, and it climes a hill like nothing. :D Of course, this is all street/highway driving. The mpg is good for what I drive, and what I can do with the truck, sure beats my E350 cube van that gets 9 mpg on it, but that's a work truck, and I make $$$ with it, and the mpg's don't bother me for that reason. You want to get 40 mpg's, get a little car for 2 people and one bag of groceries, and your set ;)

I would guest the inward brackets would be for the Dakota. The FEY is listed for either a MJ or Dakota. DODGE 1987 - 2004 DAKOTA JEEP 1987 - 1992 COMANCHE The Tube bumper also list this as a match- ISUZU 1988 - 1995 PICKUP With some fab work, a Dakota bumper could be used as a replacement :dunno:

First off.......what's the spec's of your truck.....like year, engine (4.0 I hope) and then we'll hit you on some things to check.......like fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, ballast resistor.......so on ;) Here's a little trouble shooting guide for the Renix fuel system. Unhooking the battery for the Renix system don't do any thing, the Renix system stores no codes, and each start is a fresh start for the ECM. Ah.....who's the beneficiary on your life insurance???? Never mind.......we don't want to know :roll: Only thing worst than having a rear wheel come off, is having dully 16" wheels come off a cube van, the good news was the inter wheel stayed with the truck, and kind of held the axle off the ground, saving the drum, the bad.........I had to walk a 1/4 mile down the road and get the outer wheel from someones front lawn :roll: Them sucker really get rolling don't they????? and when they hit the a ditch, really bounce high too :D Oh......and don't ask me how I know.......But, a good torque wrench is handy :roll:

Must be where your buying them from :hmm: RAYBESTOS Part # BH38352 {Professional Grade} Front; Right More Info $9.86 RAYBESTOS Part # BH38501 {Professional Grade} Front; Left More Info $9.86 That's from Rockauto.com, for a 4wd

ssssshh......... :thwak: You know I don't keep count.......just bring them in and pile them up :D

LOL......I just pulled a rust bucket from down that way......But alway looking for a rust free candidate :D Yea, if you get back that way and get some info......might be interested......even thought it's a 2.5 :roll: Plus post up the info here, couple of other's are looking in this area too. Thanks aemsee :thumbsup:

Shouldn't this be in the DIY section :hmm: Alway like a 'first hand experience' project write up.......or left thumb in your case ;)

:needpics:

Steph is 10 a-head now :D And it works ;) We can really stuff the ballot box on this one. Click on the "Most Popular", bottom right, and the rest of the contents show up.

And there is a difference in the frame mounts for the tube style bumper from the OEM step bumper, and after market step bumpers (FEY). Yea, all kinds.......Here's a sample. Even thought that's listed for a Cherokee, remember, most all engine parts from '87 thru '90 are the same, and body parts from the 'B' pillar forward are the same for the Comanche, from '84 thru '96 . The doors are the same from a 4 door XJ, and the seats are a little different. And........Welcome :waving:

Now Steph is only 23 behind Erin........she gaining :D What does she need a make over for????? Oh......never mind.....I didn't ask that :eek: Good luck JT :brows:

For $55 it a great up grade, plus being the '89 it would be a 21 spline count, and would bolt right up to your MJ. I had an 242, 21 spline offered to me around here, for $250, so I would say it's a good find :D

Chico........Is that in case your steering column "fires" up again :teehee:
