Parts are parts question

Wow this things a long ways from home.Is Pumpkin short for red ? lol .Am I reading that right? Was it a 4 cylinder turbo Diesel ? Or the 3.6 V6 ?

[JEEP_cannible]

Someone has done a ton of changes to this truck.This explains a lot.My interior is gray,but it has a blue bench seat.The console was cut down too.What looked like the original paint is the same red as my XJ hard to tell with the funky Camo over it now.Different motor in it too.Its starting to sound more like Frankin truck someone saved from a salvage yard.

Neither of those engine codes are correct. The codes have been recycled for modern engines. The 1.4 turbo is a Fiat engine found in many Fiats and some Dodge Darts and Jeep renegades. The 3.6 V6 is in a lot of other cars and vans.

Ok so in could have been built with the 4.0? I saw that 175 mm in there again too.I'm sure the rear is a 35 probably with a newer,or older cover.Its the first one I've seen with the rubber plug that has to be changed its got a bad leak at the rear.So not cool.L knew it was the ELIMINATOR model I found some of the old decal under some paint.

Wagon I have a question. Can I get you any info off the door plate(different door) on my truck.That would tell us anything about that truck? If it could help anyone on here?Or maybe locate the truck if its here in Oklahoma someone may want it or parts?

175mm is what my MJs both listed as rear axle as well. I'd say it's pretty safe to assume it indicates a d35, whatever it's for now. 

It would be interesting to compare the option codes on original build sheets to what pulls up from a dealer search. How many of the option codes from the build sheet are on the vin tag under the hood?

[JEEP_cannible]

I did find something under the hood.Emisions family KAM4.0 T5 LND2 Disp 4.0.I'm guessing here,but that means it came with a 4.0 5 speed.

There isnt any info on your door that the VIN wouldnt give you through the mfg like what I gave you. 

[Pete M]

the 5spd manual was only at the very, very beginning of the ZJ run

[JEEP_cannible]

This is my MJ Pete.Wagon the door on my MJ is from another truck

VIN decode from the FSM: 1JFT66L7KL574339

 

The VIN should have 17 characters. Yours only has 16. I can't make it match up with anything.

It will tell him the correct engine type, transmission, trim level, and whether it's 2WD or 4WD.

 

[Edit} Sorry -- the VIN will tell us that. The door tag will give the paint codes. There should be another tag under the hood that also has the paint codes.

Hey Pete M have you installed one of those head light harnesses? How hard was it.I think the connector is some were on the drivers side? I just got mine in the mail today.Haven't had time to install it yet.Looked like a good upgrade.

[gogmorgo]

The relay harness doesn't have a specific connector. It goes between the factory headlight harness and the headlights. You unplug both the headlight bulbs, plug them into the relay harness, then plug the relay harness into one of the factory headlight sockets. The result is that the factory headlight wiring remains unchanged and completely functional, but now the power that would've turned on the headlights triggers the relays which turns on the headlights.

[JEEP_cannible]

gogmorgo you mean I'll have three working headlights.Or I can just cut the extra one out of the picture.That sounds easy enough thanks for the insight.

[gogmorgo]

I would just leave the "third" headlight socket unplugged. Sure you could clip it off but the plug is insulated and it's less likely to introduce corrosion to somewhere important than a wire that was cut off and taped up or something.
