  1. So who won?
  2. You know, I always hated the look of that bumper until ya bought it Taz. Now I'm jealous. Looks good. Leave the lites there. And stick four more on the roll bar. The only thing is I guess the point of the bumper is to protect the front and I can see those getting ripped off in that position on a tree limb. So keep em there to park in the garage and flip em upside when you take her out.
  3. Not hard. Takes 30 minutes to remove the rail and put it back on. Just make sure you have extra o-rings in case the ones they send you are faulty and make sure you have them for the connections to the lines too. I didn't have em the first time I changed em out and caused a huge mess at the back line.
  4. Is it possible to replace those bushings without taking the whole assembly out?
  5. More power. yes quicker start. yes smoother running engine. yes gas mileage increase. no
  6. :wall: :wall: :wall: Airtex Part#E7901S will not work in a Jeep Comanche fuel tank because of the in-pan tank. The unit is a mirror image of the correct comanche unit. IE. Everything is backwards.

  8. Did any Comanche ever come with one from the factory? Only reason I ask is because a seller on Ebay is trying to sell the cherokee fuel pump/sending unit from Airtex as a Comanche one, and I keep trying to tell him it won't work. This discussion has gone back and forth 4 or 5 emails now with him replying it will work. In his latest email he decided to tell me that it will fit all 87-90 Comanches with a 242 transfer case. Anyway, I'm done trying to tell him but I'd like to know about the 242 just for my benefit. thanks again :cheers:
  9. The sensor itself is the one on the firewall. A long tube runs from it to the bottom of the throttle body and it plugs into the wiring harness close to the last fuel injector if you have a I6.

  12. Adam, what makes them differnt that they don't fit? Looking at measurements on Ebay it looked like they were the same height and width, or close to it. The only differnce I could see was the lengths were differnt and the position of the hole for the fuel pump.
  13. Alcan, and MotionOffroad.com sells some.
  14. Yeah I'm sorry wild. I forgot that post. Thanks again :cheers:
  15. Wildman, are you yourself resoldering the lines? If so let me know. I have three sending units now. The one on my truck needs the leak at the lines fixed. If your doing it, I'll pay you when I take mine out and put one of the good ones in.
  16. Don't feel stupid. I told you to check because I've done it plenty of times. Good luck with the CTS :cheers:
  17. exactly, however the cable doesn't always slide right into the speedo gear in the transfer case
  18. Yup, that's it.
  19. This might sound stupid, but did you remember to plug everything back in? If you did, try putting the old IAC back on. if the problem goes away it's faulty.
  20. Ladies and gentlemen. This man definitely wins the cleanest MJ of the month award. Congrats and welcome :cheers:
  21. You can not buy the MJ sending unit from any JEEP dealer in the USA. You can like brig says google junkyards that can use a database to locate a used one. You can buy an XJ one but will have to modify a bit to fit your tank. That one from Autozone will not work in your tank without modification. A lot of people on this board have bought it and need to bend/reweld certain parts to get it not to hit the in-tank pan. I have not done it personally but if you run a search in the TECH section a lot of posts have come up on the subject. If you do decide to buy that sender you can get it on Ebay for cheaper. To answer your question, No one stocks that part new. It does not excist.
  22. Personally Dubya, I still think it's the battery or the alternator. If you can't or don't feel like running the tests, go to Wal-mart. Buy a cheap battery and put it in. If the truck works and dies later you know it's the alternator. If it doesn't even start with the new battery you can always just take it back to Wal-Mart and get your money back and then start looking for crazy electrical problems. I agree w/ Eagles first post that you might as well get the obvious crap outta the way before you start stressing yourself out with the other crap.
  23. What's wrong with your sending unit? You can no longer buy a new one for an 88 comanche.
  24. Replacing the dash harness is easy. All you need to do is take apart the whole dash :D The good news is you don't need any special tools. Just a screwdriver and a couple sockets. Yu'll need a marker, tape, and baggies so you can mark and remember where everything goes after you pull the old one out. TAKE LOTS OF GOOD PICTURES AS YOU PULL THE OLD ONE OUT. I didn't and it took me about 100 hours to replace the dash and engine harness because I had no idea where anything went. Seriously though, if I had to do it again I could probably do it in three to four hours. And that's with absolutely no mechanical experience or patience.
  25. Two small bolts hold the bracket in place at the transfer case. Pull these and the whole piece pulls off. If you still can't get the cable into the gear you have to unscrew the large nut and fanaggle from there. I'll take pics tonight if you need em. I just did it again yesterday when I changed my speedo gear to the correct tooth count. The work under the truck took me less than 10 minutes. It's not hard as long as your patient and have good tools.
