Thanks, I'll try that. I don't know what properly aligned is, I was just poking around, got any tips? The shifter is original as far as I know and it was bolted in both times I drove it.

Just swapped my engine and finished assembling everything (RENIX 4.0, BA10/5, NP231). Took it for a spin and it drove great through the gears, then I backed it into the garage but couldn't get it out of reverse. This morning I removed the shifter, poked inside the trans and moved some rods, then replaced the shifter and was able to get it into 1st through 5th but not reverse. Decided to drive it and again 1st through 5th were good and I was able to get it in reverse no problem. So I backed it into the garage and again it's stuck in reverse, removed the shifter but can't move anything and now it appears to be stuck in neutral when I replaced the shifter. I know not to spend money on the BA10/5 but I'd like to get it working until it's replaced with an AX15. Anyone have any suggestions? All help is much appreciated.

Here's the '88 Electrical manual http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12734&hilit=electrical+manual the cargo light switch wiring is to the left of the steering column. The OEM switch looks like this (one on the right)

Interesting option. How about a Grant 377 or 246 or 719 for wood or 1131 in gray leather?

Joe, with your wood dash panel and gray interior it would look good but if you can find one in gray instead of black it would look great. I have several black stock wheels if you want an interim one.

According to the '86-87 & the '87-90 parts catalog, the MJ equalizer is the same part number 52001154.

Reminds me of when I installed this license plate frame on a buddy's car, his wife drove it for a week before he noticed it. I think it's still hanging in his garage 11 years later.

Hey peanut gallery, don't you have some brake pads to install? :rotf:

Maybe Spencer at http://www.jeepsticker.com/ can help. It looks like the stripes have been removed. '91-92 Pioneers had stripes with that Pioneer text on the rear panel just above the stripes, hard to see in the picture below.

Two factory fog switch options for the MJ, one with cargo light:

Roll bar with a spay-in bed liner.

If you need another tach, I have one you can have for shipping plus PayPal fees. However, I've never used it so I can't verify that it works.

Yes, those holes are where fog lights and probably the push bar attach. The caps just push out, but I have seen some chrome ones that have a nut holding them on. The newer year (??) bumpers only have one hole on each side. I personally like the lights in the outer holes.

Here's the RENIX manual that explains your engine. RENIX was from '87 to '90. http://www.pirate4x4.com/tech/billavista/PDFs/Jeep_Renix_Fuel_Injection_manual.pdf

The easiest is to pull the front wiring harness (contains the relay) and switch from an XJ. The 10 pin connector is by the airbox. It's plug-n-play.

What!! He promised me the same blond. Guess you're stuck with sloppy seconds Sam-man. :yes: I don't know if I should laugh or hurl.

All MJs/XJs came with amber side lights, clear are always aftermarket. There was someone looking for black interior parts in the classifieds wanted section, try to help them out if possible.

Thanks guys, now I can finally finish my engine installation.

The ports are visible (hard to see in the pic) the blue "cap" does not cover them.

An '88, talked to the guy, he was looking for a complete AC set up. Told him about CC, hope he checks in. Image Not Found

If you tell them you're from ComancheClub.com the lights are half price. Just contact them first.

I bought a set of injectors from precisionautoinjectors.com and they have blue plastic tips. Are they protective caps that require removal or do I just install as is? I've tried contacting them but they don't reply.

I wish whoever worked on my truck before I got it knew about this, they must have used a 6 or 12 point and rounded the hell out of the upper bell housing bolts.

Looks great. Are you thinking of spraying it with clear since aluminum oxidizes quite rapidly?

What about those of us who are not on FB? Post some so we can see them here.
