Take a trailer and get the 87. From the XJs, what are the years of each? If they're 86-90, then start grabbing common parts to the MJ. If 91+, the engine parts swap would match if you have 91-92 MJ. If there is a 2 dr XJ grab the front seats. These tilt forward. Other may (will) add more.

Not really speaking to me. Not a fan of the black cases. Different color options? -
Not CC related. There are no relays for the CC system.

New Injectors issues. (Maybe?)
87MJTIM replied to Skylynx's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Is the fuel rail bent? -
Selling some? How much?

If you have already done so, go to Cruiser54.com and perform the Mostly Renix Tips. Since you most likely unplugged and unhooked all the sensors and hoses, just go back through all the procedures again (and again) to verify you put everything back correctly. If everything is installed correctly, then start testing sensors. Another good website for the Renix sensors is Lunghd.com.

87MJTIM replied to Skylynx's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Is the old o-ring still inside the port? Pull the fuel rail/injectors and shine a light inside a see if there is anything in the way. -
Ok. How about the radio/LED clock display relay C354? The location and wire colors appear to match. p. 59 of the 88 electrical manual.

#3 the blue box is the seat belt/key/light buzzer. #4 the blue box is the horn relay. #5 is the transmission control unit (TCU) #7 is the heater vent

AMC style seatbelts not catching
87MJTIM replied to Warren99's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
There is a weighted pendulum that activates the locking mechanism. Tugging on the belt doesn't always cause the pendulum to move enough to trigger the lock. You could try parking on a downhill and tugging or driving slowly and step on the brakes. -
My lower left WT never grew in. My jaw was broken in an accident when I was 5. The other 3 grew in without any problems. My dentist didn’t like the fact that the upper left had nothing opposing it. He said it would just keep growing downward. He yanked it out. Now I’m unbalanced. (Not the first time I’ve been told that.)

I have returned to get my MJ restored - for a 2nd time. The first shop was highly recommended. However, it was a collision shop. It didn't do restorations. I could write a lengthy description of my experience, but not now. Less than one year after it was "finished" it had to go back to fix rust that wasn't properly addressed. A few years later, the bondo they used around the rear wheel well was cracking. I started my search for a restoration repair shop that would do it properly. I think (and hope) I found it. I dropped it off in early December and the owner started work right away. I will upload pictures of what he finds and the repairs he does. These are the first round: the gas tank skid plate, the floor pans (something the other shop was supposed to have addressed), and other misc. pictures.

Those brakes look pretty familiar... where have seen those before? -

Proportioning valves: abs v non-abs
87MJTIM replied to 87MJTIM's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
The LSV was deleted years ago. I picked up two prop valves at the JY yesterday. One from an XJ with rear drums. The other was from a ZJ with disc ABS - only one line for front brakes. I watch a YouTube video on converting this to handle non-ABS. I will run one new line to the rear eliminating both old lines. -
Moving forward with a booster upgrade and swapping to an XJ prop valve. The one I got with the booster only has 4 ports: 2 in and 2 out. The port in the back is plugged. Normally, the valve should have 5 ports: 2 in, 1 for RF, 1 for LF, and 1 for the rear. Since the abs controls each wheel it stands to reason it only needs 2 inputs: 1 front, 1 rear. Am I correct? Do I have the wrong valve? EDIT: I may have found my answer. https://www.jeepforum.com/threads/proportioning-valve.787040/

I reached out to Walker in Oct for the LB tailpipe. I was told that supplies were back ordered. New stock would not be available until Nov - Dec. I went to a local muffler shop to replace mine. I would suspect that SB exhausts are similar.

Adding low washer fluid warning to an MJ
87MJTIM replied to Anthi4078's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I do not believe the MJ was wired for the lower washer sensor. The idiot light space may be present (Jeep was using the same parts for MJ & XJ). But the wiring from the bottle to the dash is MIA.
