  1. The bushing you want is for a ‘74 CJ5 w/ a 304. This will have the correct inner and outer diameters to fit the larger input tip of the AX15. Search Rockauto for the part.
  2. Have you performed a compression test? leak down test? These would help ID what's wrong before you start an amputation.
  3. I have a Renix head that is collecting dust (and possibly rust). It is fully disassembled. I needs to be rebuilt. The PO told me it was magnifluxed with not cracks. But it is here in MD (just a stones through off I-70).
  4. An 89 XJ would have the Renix engine controls, unless a PO swapped in a HO engine from a 91-95 XJ. The Renix is a pre-obd system. (See Nickintime REM scan tool.) You didn’t say what the 86 has in it: 2.5 or 2.8. To swap to a 4.0, you want all the engine wiring and the ECU (under the dash, above right foot). As 89 said, the 86s weren’t designed to fit the longer 4.0s. The firewall will need to be pounded with a hammer to fit in the 4.0. See the DIY section for info on doing the swap.

    College Vehicle

    We bought it new in December 04. It is the last new vehicle we’ve bought. It has the 5 speed manual transmission. Honda stopped offering a manual in the CRV after 06.

    College Vehicle

    I am trying to remember my college daze. You would want something "economical" for commuting back and forth, especially 11 hours. You may also consider transporting your "stuff" back and forth. Even if you purchase a house, you have to furnish it in the beginning and take is back (or Goodwill) when you leave. While there, you may want to drive your friends around, also. With some of these in mind, you may want to look at the Honda CRV or Toyota Rav4. These offer fuel economy, storage space, and seating capacity. I have an '05 CRV with 376k on the clock. I personally would not recommend the MJ at college. Reliability and drunk college friend are issues to consider. The MJ as a 2nd vehicle, but...how many college students have two vehicles. My 2¢
  7. I am assuming you are getting all the 4x4 parts from the 96. Just to start a partial list: The crossmember from the 96. Your old BA10 x-member doesn't fit. The tcase shift linkage from the old. You should keep your original flywheel. The pilot bushing is for a 74 CJ5 w/ a 304. Search RockAuto for the part number.
  8. I am having the same issue - hard to shift into 1st at stop lights. I have a second AX15 in my shed waiting to swap over. Are you have the same issue with the changes? Do you have internal or external slaves? What clutch kit did you install?
  9. The yellow box is the cruise control "brains". The black box is the intermittent wiper control box. The fuse is part of the cruise control wiring. Cruise wires S/B blue w/trace. Not sure what the pink wires are for.
  10. Yes, one family counts! Looks nice. It has an original rear bumper. Put your info in your signature: Yr, engine, transmission, any modifications done to it.
  11. To be fair, the packaging claims to be "weather resistant," not pick resistant.
  12. Just remember, I have a parts 93 XJ that has the wood grain door uppers. The bezel is a little faded.
  13. That’s at a JY near me in MD.

    YouTube video

    Yes. There are three episodes about the build and driving it. They compare it with a modern JK. An epilogue is when they sell it.
  15. The CPS keeps count of the engine position/rotation to tell the ECU where the crankshaft is when to open the injectors and fire the spark plugs. If the ECU doesn’t know where the engine is, it will not fire
  16. In the engine bay, to the right of the blower, is an outlet with a 90* tube. Remove the tube and clear any obstructions
  17. CPS overheating? That could cause the stalling.
  18. The website doesn't mention having the VIN for the parts. The website says "shooting video or photos while on LKQ property is strictly prohibited." I guess there are exceptions to the rules. That yard may be doing this for inventory control - to see which vehicles are getting parts pulled. If a certain vehicle is not getting parts pulled, they can get it off the lot and get another there that can turn "lead into gold."
  19. I don’t remember the years (99-01)?, but you want to avoid 0331 stamped on the head. They were corrected with TUPY stamped on the head.
  20. The knuckles and brake calipers will be different than the 86. When you purchase front brakes, be sure to order part for the year of the axle.
  21. Fuel pressure should be 31 with vacuum and 39 w/o vacuum. If your pressure drops when vacuum is removed, check the fuel pressure regulator or just replace it. Also, look at the pump. If the pump isn't putting out enough pressure, it could be too lean to run properly, especially at higher RPM. Like Ohm said, check the fuel trims. The will give you a lot of info.
