WiscoXJ Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Here are some photos finally of what all is done so far. Need to bleed the brakes and install the shocks then test drive time. Brake lights aren't working but thatll be easy enough to figure out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebvance Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 are your motor mounts broke? The reason I ask Is because It looks like the engine is tweaked at a angle. Mine was like that to because my motor driver side mount was broke and the engine settled back and to the right some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once its running and driving how I want it I'm going to get the brown dog ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rustybottoms88 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 You might think about just driving it during the day until you get headlights. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiscoXJ Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Took the truck for a few little spins today. But going from park to drive it dies, same if your on an incline in drive it will die. If u keep the rpms a little higher and go to drive it won't die. Idle air valve? Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buxmj Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Maybe a vacuum leak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiscoXJ Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Seems a little harsh for a vac leak. Plus I just plumbed everything. I'll double check tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustybottoms88 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 How is the idle when in park? Does it idle in gear after it is coaxed into the initial gear engagement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiscoXJ Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 ya it did. Ended up neing the idle air valve. after that was fixed I took it down the road and I was getting a loud grinding. ended up being the tcase. I don't know how the tcase goes bad by taking it out of one truck and putting it in other but I got a new one for free so whatever. trying to find time now to put it back in and test everything out. then I need to find out why my low beams don't work as well as my hi blower setting. then I need to get my a/c working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiscoXJ Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Typical night with the mj.. Attempt a step forward. Take ten backwards. New tcase was 23 spline like I needed but had a lip inside the input that wouldn't let it slid in all the way which led to me learning how to swap inputs on the fly. Oh so fun.

WiscoXJ Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 in the original tcase everything looked like hell. I couldn't hardly get the synchros to match up by hand. in the other one everything looked almost new. the magnet had barely any debris on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
