You can't fit a tubing adapter with a 45* or a 90* hose end? I use straight hose ends. How much bigger is the 04 PS pump? I am all so doing a 99 intake but don't have a pump yet. I was thinking of going with a PSC power steering pump W/ AN fittings. http://www.pscmotorsports.com/-PK1652-95-06-4.0-Jeep-high-volume-pump-kit.html

& if you are interested in getting rid of these plastic disconnects on your AW4's oil cooler lines :headpop: :fs1: I did this on my 90 Cherokee. :wrench: the silver -6 hose ends are steel to bring down the price a little. HOW MUSH IS YOUR PEACE OF MIND WORTH !! :thumbsup:

Do you have a laundry list with part numbers and sizes to do this mod? Have never worked Earl's fittings/tubing.

i was responsibly driving my manche & I GOT T-BONED!! :doh: insurance call it a total loss. the impact broke the front axle & bent the shock on the passenger side. the body damage, fender, door & some damage to the rocker panel. :wrench: I went to the junk yard and got a new/used 2 WD front axle, door & fender. This accelerated my dissension to go long arm. So i bought a Rock Krawler 3 link,http://www.rockkrawler.com/index.php?r_intro=no Deaver 5.5'' Jeep Speed Race Coils http://www.deaverspring.com/products/coils.html front shocks 12" Bilstein 5100 http://www.bilsteinus.com/products/off-road/5100-series-shocks.html front shock mount are JKS bar pin eliminators.http://store.jksmfg.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=BARPINELIM&Store_Code=JKS01&Category_Code=Shock :cheers:

If you cut off the lower control arm mounts (from the frame side) , like i did there is no going back . :doh: Go to the junk yard, take a drill, center punch and drill out all the spot welds on the lower control mounts, they will separate from the frame. Take measurements off you 97 to place the brackets on the frame rails of you MJ. Then, weld all spot holes. For the rear you are correct, the leaf width is different between MJ & XJ. You will need to weld on new spring perches. Unless someone else know of someone who makes after market frame side lower control arm brackets on a short arm kit ??

ya you can swap out that oil filter neck with a 91 neck from the junkyard. 1991 4.0 high output oil filter neck has 3/4x16 marked on the fire wall this is the on you are looking for. i have seen to styles you want the one that the oil filter threads on from the top. :wrench: you will need a 5/8 ratcheting wrench & some gloves. and find new Orings for the 91 oil neck. 5.0 mustang oil filter uses +1 quart & allows you to go 5000 miles between oil changes friends don't let friends use fram!!!

i run JCR 1 TON steering. JCR w/ Moog tie rods on top. stock on bottom . Maybe this can help you figure out what you have on your truck? the link i posted was for stock steering. part # moog-DS1045S has a left & a right tie rod ends. the Moog tie rod ends are part # moog-ES2222L left side. part # moog-ES2223R right side connects tie rod to drag link.

Adapting the 4.0 h/o fuel rail to A/N fittings with Earl's #1 OEM tubing adapters cut off flange & debar end of tubing Earl's OEM tubing adapter slide the socket over the tube push on the olive assemble by hand pushing in tighten with wrenches old plastic & metal line on the left :wall: uses plastic quick disconnects :fs1: new stainless line on the right :banana: good up to 200 PSI!

33s & 5'' of lift is to much for stock steering & stock track bar! you got some work to do! :wrench:

this link should help you out! Moog makes very good tie rods! http://www.moog-suspension-parts.com/products.asp?cat=3157 :cheers:

when i swap in my D44 with the TNT u bolt eliminators it will be about 4'' of rear lift. so i plan to take the Rubicon express add a leaf out. and considering my options to go long arm :hmm:

my dana 44 internals 4;56 gear i got from http://www.nationaldrivetrain.com/ a Aussie locker http://www.aussielocker.com/ and Alloy USA rear axle shafts http://www.alloyusa.com/jeep-rear-axles.html :cheers:

picked up a Dana 44 @ the junk yard then i ordered a TNT customs truss & U bolt eliminators http://www.tntcustoms.com/MJ.aspx :thumbsup:

I the grill master!!! my Girl

no the first one i bought for my Comanche was in good shape. the second one i bought for my Cherokee was not in such good shape :fs1: not the fins those were perfect but the filler neck was dented making it difficult to put on the cap with a good seal. I straightened it carefully with pliers. This same thing happened to a friend but he was not so carefully and he cracked the aluminum. :mad: He throw in his parts shed. I pulled it out to get a pic and this was the condition :headpop:

started having cooling problems. so i went with a all aluminum 2 row radiator from Genesis Auto parts. http://www.genesisautoparts.com/ And i had a small crack on my thermos stat housing . i pick up a over board thermos stat housing & thermos stat from Hesco Inc. http://www.hescosc.com/ when i was in there i put in a Flowkooler water pump. http://www.flowkooler.com/

Next electrical upgrade was my red top Optima. http://www.optimabatteries.com/ Then MSD Blaster Ignition Coil. http://www.msdignition.com/ After that, a Summit Tune-Up kit. Which included; cap, roter, and silicon spark plug wires. http://www.summitracing.com/ And a MSD 6 Offfroad Ignition Control Module. http://www.msdignition.com/ Radio Shack sells this accessory box, which is perfect for all my fuses and relay's.

There's a lot of different AN fitting manufactures. This is Earl's #1 AN-6 stainless hose with Teflon inner liner, and speed seal hose ends. This hose lasts fore ever, and is air craft tested. This is the -6 stainless hose. Now we have -6 speed seal hose end Push the Red part of the hose end (called the socket), on to the stainless hose. Then you push the Olive over the Teflon liner. Put a light film of WD-40 on the male tip. I assembled mine with a small amount of Anti-Seize on threads. Lightly debur any hairs, be very carefull not to damage any of the Teflon liner. Place the blue part of the hose end (called the B-NUT) in a bench vise. If your vise does not have smooth jaws, install some. Then push the hose firmly on, and give it a little jiggle. Tighten hose assembly. :chillin: :cheers:

I think its a 140amp, its off a 1999 Dodge Durango 5.9L, might be 136amp

Alternator Relocation. I relocated my alternator up top, for water proofing, and the larger amp alternator. The higher amp Alternator helps power my HID head light conversion, driving lights, and rear dust light. To put the alternator in this location, I had to make mounting brackets, and shorten my belt size. New size is by measurement 770 K-6.

When I welded my U-Bolt Elimanators, I was running a AX15 2wd transmission. There for, even though I run spring over, I still had the set the perches at the stock location. Later on I swapped to a 4wd AX15 trans, and a NP242 transfer case, with a Rubicon Express slip yoke elimanator. When running a CV drive shaft, you need to adjust your pinion angle. :chillin:

my stock steering wheel was in bad condition so i replaced it with a Grant http://www.grantproducts.com/products/browse/steering-wheels/ and swapped the dummy lights for switch gauges
