88 comanche project (continued)

[88swampedmj]

got the 5.13s in the 8.8... still waiting on the flattop knuckle then ill do that and the front gears all in one swap.......then the driveshaft up front... and wiring...

[panama red]

so you got the rear driveshaft on without having to cut it?

[88swampedmj]

i won't have to cut it, but that spicer adapter thing you got me is kinda tricky the ujoint caps have to be pressed in i guess? ... i finished the wiring...stayed up all night doin it...did all that to find out the fuel rail is broken... off to the yard tommorow..

[panama red]

that sucks. you have to take the caps off then install the ujoint, put the caps in through the holes. You can use a socket and a clamp to "press them in"

[88swampedmj]

ill give it a shot.. i just woke up lol.. iam not messin with it today but tommorow i will

[Tank4L]

I've got an extra fuel rail... got a bunch of extra parts let me know if you need anything I'll see if I've got it...

[88swampedmj]

i got another fuel rail only to realize i need new seals on the fuel injectors..well one needs it... ill prolly go to the junkyard anyways i have to get a few of the vaccum hoses for the fuel pressure regulator and map sensor and stuff...

 

all the big stuff is done now its a bunch of little annoying things

[JeepcoMJ]

a set of injector o-rings is about $6 from any parts store. that's for all of them, top and bottom.

 

I highly advise new on that.

[88swampedmj]

yea i got some from autozone, i just need all the other hoses now for the vaccum stuff

[88swampedmj]

its been awhile since ive posted, the truck is just sitting behind my house still not running.. the motor never wanted to start after i put it in.. and i still havent gotten the flat top knuckle machined.. but iam wantin to get it all done again so hopefully i can get the knuckle machined and my sisters husband has a 4.0 with the head still on that iam gonna put in it..
