  1. The '88 Elec FSM has it as connector c354. I haven't looked for mine,
  2. http://york.craigslist.org/pts/5474011190.html $300 is not enough for me to take. He'd have to pay me more! :yes:
  3. Thanks. My MJ will be 29 yrs. old in May. Only one owner! Still my daily driver
  4. No pics, but here is the www: http://vintagevibes.net/jeep_cj.htm
  5. I like period specific, too...most of the time. I don't have cassettes any more and CDs take up too much space. I can plug in my phone and play more music than I can carry on CD. Additionally, the radio is bluetooth; phone calls come through the speakers - ultra hands free. For my CJ, I got a retro radio that is fully electronic. Vintage vibes.
  6. I use them as drink coasters, now.
  7. But it will raise $$$. Just another tax. In Connecticut it was a loser. By statute, the fee for a test is $20 -- half to the testing station and half to the state. If you fail, the first retest is free. For an OBD-2 vehicle, the test is quick -- run the mirror underneath to verify that the cat is still there, plug in the scanner to the OBD-2 port, fire it up and read the numbers. For any pre-OBD-2 vehicle they have to physically do a pressure test on the fuel cap, they have to put the vehicle on a chassis dyno and actually run the vehicle through a prescribed series of operational parameters. And then do it again -- for free -- if the first test failed. I'm sure the shops doing the testing were losing money hand over fist, and even the knuckleheads in Hartford finally realized that all they were doing was causing testing stations to leave the program. MD is almost the same, sans the dyno. We have tail pipe sniff test. Just run the engine at 2500 RPM for 1 minute. If you fail, next test is free! Cost us $14 every second year. I could put "historic" tags on it (20+ years) and not have to have the testing done. However, there are restrictions on amount of driving you can do with the vehicle (not a DD). The historic tags cost more every two years than regular tags. Not much of a savings.

  9. No one has mentioned the front axle. Is that part of the package? If not, I think $850 is steep for just a trans and tcase. If you get the whole ZJ, sans engine, then maybe. You can part out whats left to recoup your money.
  10. You will need the 4wd trans. The 2wd trans will not work.
  11. Spare tire loose? If it is loose, you may not hear when accelerating. The engine noise will drown out other sounds. When you let off the gas, the engine goes quiet(er), the truck slows down and the tire flops around. If you don't have the spare tire then "Nevermind."
  12. I used just the bushing.
  13. The bumper brackets are in between the frame and hitch brackets. I recall trying to flip the bumper brackets to opposite side, but there were still large sections of the "L" that needed to be trimmed, I just cut the whole "L" off. Carpenters rule: measure twice, cut once. My rule: just cut, don't measure.
  14. Sounds like a keeper. Congrats! She will grow up fast. My 15 YO daughter seems like only yesterday she was little. I mean little - 4 lbs 4 oz.
  15. Same thing happened to me. I left my truck at my office over night. Came back the next morning to find a note under the wiper. It asked me to call a number if I was ever going to sell it. (I have never called the number.)
  16. The 87 is pre-OBD1. There is a write up in the DIY section on putting a HO (91+) into a Renix (87 - 90).
  17. Got a notification late last night. Thank Alexia.
  18. Thx. I thought I may have done something (by doing nothing).
  19. Something happened about a week ago. I stopped getting notifications when others reply to topics. I don't know if I did something or there was an updated here. What do I need to do?
  20. Stuck at work...until April 18 (tax day in the US)
  21. Which parts are you looking for? Body parts are probably best to search JY. I have found RockAuto to have many parts at good prices.
  22. Do my eyes deceive me, or do you have passenger side tcase? Perhaps a D300.
  23. Not filled it up properly. Put in wrong grade oil.
