$2 says he does it his way instead. Just like every other time he has been told not to do some thing because his 4x4 people are experts.

That's what I was getting at, lol. It got lost in translation. I wonder how many of those other 19 were XJs?

Johnny, remember that XJs rolled down the same line as MJs and the VINS followed sequence. How many XJs were between those 2 trucks?

Nice truck! I want a maroon interior for my truck. :fs2:

Beautiful long box! I love me a long bed MJ. Welcome to Comanche Club. I want dibs on the roll bar if you ever want to sell it.

Welcome back brother!

Diesel just hit $4.22 here in the desert.

That axle will be a LP30 with CV joints. It is a piece of junk.

Jim sold it!

The rusty cylinders are from a blown head gasket.

I am not sure if the 327 is lighter than the 318. I do know you are going to catch hell trying to get the oil pan to clear the steering and axle. The ZJ coils should lift a stock MJ about an 1" to 1 1/2" or so. You might pick up 3/4" to 1" in the front with the ZJ coils. I doubt you would notice the difference.

Been there. Check out the Onyx link in my sig. Look at the Betty link to see a FI V8 swap in process. There are at least ten 97+ conversions that I know of. Even one in Mexico.

I saw the track bar in the pic but not the bracket. :cheers: Looks like you got it under control.

I have a manual steering box if you need it.

You are going to want a double shear TB for the go fast stuff.

The 2.8 sender is in the tank. It is just a straight pipe with the filter on the end. The mechanical pump on the block did the rest. I have a set of ZJ V8 coils laying here if you need them for your truck fairly cheap.

If your 2.5 is injected you can't use the stock in tank pump. It will have way too much pressure and blow the carb seals. The 327 should have a mechanical pump on the block. You can do away with the in tank pump all together. You can either find a pump assy from a carbed 2.8 or just put a piece of tubing in place of the in tank pump.

$4.00 for diesel and $3.60 for unleaded.

special edition "herokee," rare as they come! Not only was it a HEROKEE it was an SRT too. Some beer was involved with the name change. It was an awesome rig and it was my HERO.

It looks like it crashed into JC Whitney and they let him keep whatever stuck. Sometimes, less is more.

My first LUVV, 87 Shelby Charger, 2.2 Turbo II, 22 PSI, 75 horse shot, 11.46 1/4 mile! I bought it in 97 with 59K on it. The odometer currently shows 71171. 04 WJ, 2" BB, 17" Commander wheels (my first and last new car) The SC behind the WJ at the Tim Wellborn museum in Alabama. The WJ has pulled that car across the country 3 times now. My wonderful wife has been the pilot of the Jeep each time. Next year will be the fourth and last time she does it. 07 2500 5.9 CTD

Nah it might be...it was made in april of 92..last year..last month of production how can i tell? My buddy Russ has one that is much later than yours...

I got a good bit of the mock up stuff done today. It got dark before I could snap any pics. I will try to get some in a few days. I got the Y-pipe installed, 231 is bolted to the 46RH, cross member and trans mount installed, and lastly I got the air cleaner modified and looks stock. Luckily I did not have to hack a hole in the floor. I have about 3/4" of clearance between the transfer and the floor. Little by little she is slowly coming together. I still have a long way to go. But, hopefully I will be driving it this summer.

Done!
