Missed that part. “Sorry ‘bout that, Chief.” 86

Get the Tcase from the XJ, also. Your current Tcase will not mate to the AX15. Get the trans crossmember. Get the trans mounting bracket. Get the bellbousing for the AX15 and the bearing release fork. Get the Tcase shift linkage. (The linkage for the AX is slightly different than the BA10. Although, modifying the current is doable.) Since you are (maybe) swapping to an external slave cyl trans, it is a good time to change clutch kits. I discovered when I swapped mine that the pressure plates changed when the AX15 switched from internal to external slave cyl. The old PP did fit and worked, it just did not feel correct. You will need to change the hydraulic system, also. Or at least the slave cyl. Be aware that the input shaft tips on the AX15 changed from ~1/2" to ~3/4" size (don't remember which years). You will need to change the pilot bushing. One that worked for me and is referenced often on CC is the pilot bushing for a '75 CJ5 w/ a 304 engine. I am very happy with my AX15 swap. Good luck.

Did yours originally have the tow mirrors? The reason I ask is that there is an internal door brace to support the mirrors. Without the brace, the wind against the mirror would bend/collapse the door skins.

Luk makes a good clutch kit BTW this is a 12 year old thread

CJs, especially the CJ8. I would like own a 2 or 3A some day.

No fish currently. She had a Dam(n)-sel fish for YEARS. It was a vicious little cus. It attacked all the other fish in the tank. Wife wouldn’t get any more fish until the damsel became “fish food “. The thing finally died a few months ago. She’s been busy doing other things to get more fish.

My wife has a 75 gal salt water tank. So, I guess I have one.

WOW! That MJ was sold from Henry Gay Jeep in Laurel, MD. That was just up the street from where I lived (a few miles). I was in Beltsville, MD. I have the original sticker for mine. Came with the off road package but no mention of rear track lock. EDIT: the dealership is Henry G-a-y. Not: ghey. spell checker keeps "correcting" it.

Here is the Renix fuel injection manual. It's a great reference source for our Renix Jeeps.

I guess you are taking the readings from the square terminal, not the flat terminal. Have you adjusted the TPS? The 4.62 is high. The BC output should be .83 of the AB output. A high idle like you describe could be vacuum related. Have you checked the vac line from the MAP to the throttle body? I have recently had trouble with the TB not closing all the way when I release the pedal. It only rev's about 1000-1200, thou. Look to see if the TB is stuck initially.

What Fiat says: you need the brackets to mount. A second set of hands would help, also.

New mounted

Fay-Weston bumpers are about as close as you can get. Old v. New

to OP: Best to get a full parts XJ.

I've pulled the dust shield also. It involves removing the fly wheel.

You should have thanked him. He saved you.

Your best bet is to search junk yards or a parts XJ for all the addition parts needed. Look for a 94+ XJ with 4wd. It will have the external slave bellhousing. You should get the Tcase also. The tcase with you BA10 will not mate up to the AX15. Also get the cross member, transmission mounting bracket, Tcase shifter linkage. The AX15 from a 98+ XJ will have a lager input shaft tip, so you will need to change the pilot bearing/bushing. If the AX15 comes with (or you convert to) an external slave cylinder, you should swap the clutch disk/pressure plate. (The pressure plate is the same for a BA10 and an AX15 with internal slave cylinders. The PP changed when the AX15 switched to external.)

If the rear fender flares are in good shape, someone on CC was looking some. Can you access the fuel tanks? Grab the fuel pump/sending units. Cab side vents. interior trim, especially the rear panel. B pillar lights. Parking brake pedal. Cab - bed light. rain gutter trim pieces Rear taillights

If it fits you, get it. Ride it for a while to get in to shape, then buy another bike that is more suited for technical trail riding. I have 5 bikes: 3 road, 2 mountain.

I am Roady with Campy components, so I may not be the best for MTB advice. That one looks like a 2019 model. It would have retailed for $800. 45% off a 1 y.o. bike is not too bad. Is the picture the bike for sale? The saddle bag and bottle cage are added goodies making the price even more reasonable.

Felt is a good name brand. I don't know about that model. Contemporary bike geometry is measured differently than previously. MTBs are measured differently than road bikes. The disk brakes are nice. What are the components? Probably Shimano, but what group set? The bike pictured looks like it is set up for gravel roads and light trails.

The on-coming vehicle in the opposite lane is a Jeep. It looks like it may be an XJ.

Para-sailing?
