Engine bay reference pics?

[jeepmjga]

Hey all, new to the forums, and am about to start diving into the MJ but was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to snap a few reference pics for me?  I really just need a few good overhead pictures of the engine compartment on an 89 4.0L.  I have a few stray wires and things I'm not sure about.  Also if anyone has any pics of an open cooling conversion that would be great.  I searched but couldn't really find just a good overhead picture.  Thanks for any help!

Awesome thanks!  That is one clean engine!

Clean is right. Impressive and great reference pics for me as well. Nice

You find some hidden dealer still selling new Comanches somewhere? That is clean!

What are the red and white wires coming out from the firewall where the two coolant lines go into the heater core? The two wires are almost under the coolant container and just to the left of the heater core coolant lines.

The red is the power wire for the hood light. The white is the vacuum line for the heater valve

That engine bay is immaculate

Think we could make this a sticky? Very helpful for reference.

Very nice.  I have never seen a cold air intake like that on a Renix before. Would be interested to know about it. I have a 89 4.0 too.

 

Thanks

Thank you.

 

Interesting, I followed your link and it shows only fitting 1991-2001. Obviously it works from your pics. Never thought anyone made a kit for older MJ's

if we can get a collection of all the engine bays we can start a new thread in the DIY section

I've made myself an engine bay reference directory by pulling photos of engine bays from cherokees and comanche's off bringatrailer.

Reason being? The photos are essentially in the public domain and usually show the engine bay very clean. I sorted them by year. If you want me to send them your way I can no prob bob.

no need to send to me, start a new thread and post 'em up.  

[Salvagedcircuit]

Ok. Thanks.

Getting ready to pull the trigger on this. Can anyone that has used this on a Renix elaborate on the fitment ?  Looks nice but we all know everything is not totally bolt in.

 

Just want to feel more comfortable ordering something that is not listed for a 1989 MJ application.

 

Thanks

you should probably start a new thread so more eyeballs will see the title.
