86 Full Cluster Questions


Recommended Posts

I scored a full cluster from an 86 Cherokee 2.8V6 this weekend at the junk yard. I had the oportunity to pull the sensors too since the truck was virtually unmolested, but I'd rather get new ones.

 

Anyone know the exact part numbers for the oil pressure sensor and water temp sensor for the 2.8V^ with full cluster?

 

I saw the writeups, but those were for 4.0s and 2.5s, I didn't know if the sensors were the same or not.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

PS - I also got some factory Marshal fog lights, dash switch, underhood light, and clock - all for $80! Score! jamminz.gif

Just tell the parts store that you need the temp sending unit for the 86 2.8 GAUGE, and the Oil pressure sending unit for the GAUGE. They should be able to look it up for you. I know the sensors for the 2.5 and 4.0 are the same, the senders on my red 91 MJ 2.5 are from an 88 XJ 4.0

I've got the oil pressure sensor, but I'm having trouble finding exactly which coolant temp sensor/sender I need for the 2.8.

 

Anyone have a part number of link? I looked at rockauto, partstrain, autozone, and advance. They all have multiples listed with no clear description. I don't want to order the wrong one. Thanks!

Thanks for the help on those numbers, I'll see what i can come up with.

 

I did my swap today, and I think it's way easier than those instructions. He has you rolling the odometer, but it's very simple to remove to screws on the back of each cluster and just swap the speedos. Then the mileage is correct, and you don't have to worry about different cables. I got the cluster form on 86 cherokee, and it still had a different cable than my 86 MJ. Weird. It's all good though, my new guages work great! I just need to dig up that coolant temp sender.
