  1. I took am in the category of overloading my mj on alloy wheels without issue.
  2. It will slow the process but our climate is not steel friendly. Coatings exist but nothing is fool proof other than garage kept except for the nicest summer days.
  3. After pulling the relay and testing jumping the terminals does nothing. I even confirmed to make sure I had power at d1-5. Edit: tested with both sets of plugs neither of which made any difference
  4. Did you try your setup before the drop brackets? I didn't have any trouble obtaining correct geometry without them on mine. The core adjustables have a drop built into them.
  5. The aluminum will disapate the heat faster and won't melt. I have seen EXPERIENCED torch users melt steel fasteners out of aluminum housings without damage to the aluminum.
  6. My mj was a daily driver, even after the lift. It is stiffer than my old factory suspension but definitely not too harsh to drive. I was pleased with it. It rides like a truck not a Cadillac is about the best I can explain it.
  7. I chose to run core 4x4 adjustable arms with my 4.5 up front. They weren't terribly priced and allowed me to obtain correct geometry.
  8. Key on or off for the test? After ac clutch relay removal jumper the same posts?
  9. I should have just messaged you to begin with. Lol. Any clue as to what the other set of plugs would be?
  10. So even though my ac has no charge and doesn't do ac things, the fan should still operate when the dash selector indicates a need for air? I know the fan itself is good and works when jumped with power.
  11. Well I don't know if I hooked up the correct set but the rem unit is reading water temp. I am assuming (yes I know what that means) I got the right ones. Any way to test the fan other than wait for it to get warm?
  12. Back history first. 88XJ auto engine harness swap. Never had any cooling issues since I bought it. I have never seen the electric fan come on. This started with an O2 sensor change to replace a non responsive factory unit. After r&r of the exhaust manifold to repair a buggered up thread for the O2 sensor, I come across this tucked away in the corner. Which set is the fan and coolant temp sensor and what are the others? One set comes from the large loom the other from the small. Also any ideas on what the red wire wired to the red with black trace in the small harness would be about?
  13. I had the same issue with my race installer from Amazon. I have previously installed races with a drift and hammer. Precision fit between the race and driver are not necessary. The important part is not damaging the bearing contact surface and be sure it's seated. Try flipping the cup piece on the driver and see if the back side is a closer match the the race size.
  14. From my limited understanding of plumbing, there's probably not much at all going on. 😂
  15. I ran a YJ shifter for several years while searching for an xj/mj shifter. Someone on here (forgive my poor memory) showed me the short throw shifter formerly made by hurst. Wish I would have done it years ago. https://core-shifters.com/products/core-hurst-shifter-1989-1999-jeep-cherokee-comanche-6-cyl-w-ax15-5-speed
  16. Bite the bullet and get a short throw shifter. You can thank me later.
  17. What light is that? Any closer pics?
  18. It needs extended links to compensate for the lift. The sway bar should sit level iirc. This is one of these commonly overlooked things when installing a lift it seems.
  19. Just give it and extras few layers of that beautiful paint.
  20. Sorry I should update this. I have aquirred one and repaired my mistake. Thanks to all.
  21. In my life I have learned there are 2 things I don't like to sell, jeep parts and guns. You will regret the sale later in life.
  22. I broke a fitting on my vacuum canister. I am in need of a replacement. Who has one?
