Yes, it was sprayed on. I did not do it.

I got mine rhinolined. The shop took it down to the lower crease. I think it looks good.

Clogged Cat? I had one crumbling inside. The pieces blocked the flow of exhaust. When the truck stopped, the pieces fell out of the way and it would run fine...until the pieces shifted. My 2¢.

I purchased from Z&M http://stores.zmjeeps.com/ I did not do the body work, but the shop that did the work did not say anything bad. I also purchased a bed side panel from them. They're in OH, USA. I don't know the shipping cost to the Great White North.

1. I believe the cable is universal. However, there may be a diff with the HO vs. Renix. That's 91+ Jeeps. 2. The external slaves started in 94. So you should look for 94+ AX15/bells. 3. AFAIK the AX15 was alway 23 while the BA10 was 21. 4. Don't know. Sorry.

Ok, I finally did it. That was too easy. Two questions: Why didn't I do this sooner? Why did AMC make it this way?

The 3rd and 4th digits don't match the '89 VIN sequence. Based on the VIN you listed, you have a 1990 base model, 2wd, with a 2.5 4 cyl. It must have been an early production unit. The 10th digit, "K", is a 1989 production year. The 6th position, "2," is the base model. A "3" would indicate Pioneer. Source: www.vehicleidentificationnumber.com

My BA10 has never left me stranded.,,,the internal slave, however. After 27 yrs, 270,000 mile and the 5th slave cylinder, I have an AX15 ready and waiting.

Whatever I have in kegs in my 'fridge. I brew my own beer. As for hunting, sorry to say, I've never done that. I could pull the trigger, but I don't know what to do next.

Does the NFL have a "mercy" rule? When will they put us out of our misery?

I believe you would need to get the short cable that goes from the cluster to the speed scensor. Or just order a cable with out cruise. Rock Auto listed a few.

Just a silly question regarding the blower: had you taken out your radio recently? If so, check it to make sure you did not push the power supply connector off. You may have slid it back a little so is was still contacting at first but the shaking of the truck knocked it off. Voice of experiance :oops:

One word: Maryland

CT has liberal gun laws now? Only at school :laughin:

Mine has the handle. For the seat to tilt, you would have to have the seats slid forward in order to tilt back. Otherwise, the head rest hits the glass. I guess you could tilt it forward, but you would be sitting nearly verticle. IMO, not comfortable on a long drive.

I found out today I need to do a CAD fix. My question is: CAD cover: separate gasket or RTV?

Thanks for that info. My mechanic will test the temp going to and out of the cat. He will use a infra-red temp gauge. He said the cat will heat up the exhaust fumes. The readings should be hotter on the back end. If it is not, then the cat is blocked. (Or is he just blowing smoke?)

Yeah, I know, but it is my DD. The historic tags restrict the use of the truck. I know people who have ignored it and drive them regularly. I also know people who have been stopped and told to re-register the tags. I just got an 84 CJ7 that I will register historic. BTW - Have I seen you driving around here?

I've purchased from here before: http://www.faxonautoliterature.com/Service-Manuals/Jeep/Comanche They have original manuals and reprints.

No problem. After the long thread re: 86 park brake recall, I started experiencing the issues. I figured I wasn't the first. I was curious if someone had made the switch to a hand brake.

Nope, all stock '87.

I did not know that. Thanks.

I am sure this has been covered previously, but I could not find it. First, my parking brake pedal is finally giving out. When I push down, the pedal lifts up a few teeth. Once it popped up completely when I closed the door. I DO NOT trust it to hold the truck. I ALWAYS leave it in gear when I get out. Has anyone made the conversion to the hand brake in the console? Besides the handle, is there any other parts to get from a donor? How is it fastened to the trans tunnel? Are the holes/bolts prefab in already? What cable length is needed? The long bed and short bed are too long. The XJ cable may be too short.

Find out the salvage price. Compare that with the cost of buying all the parts to do a 2wd to 4wd conversion. You may find it to be less to buy back the XJ. You need to do the math.
