Do you mean, what controls shifting in to 4H and 4L? That would be the shifter in the cab. Look under the truck to make sure the linkage is hooked up properly and not binding against anything. If it is still won't shift, then the problem is internal.

The vacuum hose controls the front axle central disconnect. It shouldn't control shifting the tcase.

This thread was dead for 15 years!!!

You want to be measuring DCV on the 20 scale. Car electronics run on DC not AC.

There are/were two shades of tan. The top, like mine, is honey. I don’t know what years the honey was offered. I think it was only 87/88(?).

Someone on CC several years ago showed his 87 with COMANCHE on the fender. I posted the fender must have been swapped with an 86 because of the all caps. He insisted it was an original 87 and original fender, also. I don't know if he had one of the early ones (or if he is still on CC). AMC may have been using up overstock parts before switching to the new Comanche.

The Ford Model T had a three axle truck that could have tracks fit to the wheels on the two rear axles. https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.modeltfordsnowmobile.com%2Flcmainbriefhistory.htm&psig=AOvVaw0--0ZIN4zFWMwg2pyOvWC5&ust=1609716672821000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCNCKh4a0_u0CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD

Trying another one. 12.2% ABV

We had a few dogs that were terrified of thunderstorms and fireworks. I have pictures of one of our dogs sitting in a bath tub, also. Several of them destroyed things in our house and/or camper when thunderstorms roll through and no one was home to comfort the dog. Our current dog is not as fazed by storms or fireworks.

Tomorrow - hair of the dog.

And beer kegs!!

Pick up a 4 pack last year. I have one each new year’s. This is #2. comparing how the flavor changes from year to year

Ok. That eliminates stuck open injectors

Plus tax

If you have an injector stuck open that may account for a rich condition. Try unplugging each injector, one at a time, and see how the engine responds. As each one is unplugged the engine should start to run rough. If it doesn't change much, that injector may be the problem.

I had a similar issue: it would get dim and hard to see, especially in daylight. Often it would just go blank. When it did become visible again it still kept good time. What fixed it? A dash board ground wire upgrade. See cruiser54.com Tip #18.

Welcome aboard, from one 87 to another. Two things you need to do to help identify and fix issues are: 1. Cruiser's Renix Tips at www.cruiser54.com 2. Nickintimedesign Renix Engine Monitor (REM). You will find it at www.nickintimedesign.com There are some manuals on servicing these Jeep in the DIY section. I would recommend the 87 and/or the 88 wiring diagram manuals and the Renix Fuel Injections Manual.

No. The BA10 has a unique bolt pattern. Most Jeep owner take off a BA10; few ever put one back on. The problem you have is the bolt pattern of the engine, not the trans. The rear of a 2.5 engine doesn't match a 4.0. So, any trans designed to bolt to a 4.0 won't fit the 2.5. The AX5/4 were not designed to bolt to a 4.0. There is your problem! Dakota designed a bell housing to fit an AX15 to their 2.5. Jeep never made that type of bellhousing. That's why everyone is saying to search for Dakota 2.5.

Thanks

I first wondered how anyone could drive that. Then I realized it's a British vehicle. No one drives it; it spends most of the time in a garage.

There are two Fastenals near me. They are a last resort for purchasing nuts/bolts/etc. Why? I needed some bolts for a project. The store did not have them in stock/not regular stock parts. The price total was approx. $15, then they charged me $25 in shipping!!!! It came from their warehouse, on their truck, as part of a regular delivery to their store! They did not deliver to my house. I had to pickup at the store. NO! If it isn't in stock there, I order through Amazon Prime. Free Shipping.

I agree with Ohm - underhood lamp. It should not have anything to do with starting or running. If I were you, I would not go back to him (or he may try to sell you muffler ball bearings).

I like to get away from others and distractions (TV). Not that I don't love my wife; I just like to have a quiet room that I can sit and read. Additionally, in winter months and rainy days I get stir crazy inside the same four walls. A bigger house allows me to get a new perspective in the same house. But that's just me, others may feel different.

A baker's dozen.

This website has some nice history for the MJs. http://comanchemj.1hwy.com/index.html The production numbers referenced above match the total on the website (could be the same source).
