60's cj5 that i did envolved: grinding out the weld from the perches then using a chisel cracking what was left of the weld set up axles lvl on stands then reseting the pinion angle and tack welding the perches back on. drilled out the riverts for the top shock mounts and removed them. set...

you got me....the moment i increased the ride hight with out taking in to account the change to the center of gravity on a narrow width axle the angle required to cause a fatal roll over event increased possibly causing death or serious injury. well while im here lets admit to a few others...

i got the winch ive always wanted for my 69 cj toy its a 8000lb pto winch that looks either nos or real real clean...now if only i could find the transfer case rear pto with in my poor person budget..lol

soa can be done dirt cheap on a trail rig or a mud buggy thats never never going to see tarmac again. i flipped the axles on a old cj for a grand cost of $10 but the cj is never going to be driven more than 20 mph. i wouldnt even consider soa on a daily driver unless it was a factory kit with...

if you want to play for a learning exsperiance then i would drop the oil again and remove the big end bearings make sure you mark the caps and install them on the same cylinder and the same way round. if the bearings have defects like rougness or pits then the fun is over as the crank will need...

had this problem on a 95 yj not long ago. after following the prints i found the ac clutch, netural light, 4wheel drive engaged switch were all supplyed by this circuit (fuse 9 g5). i found the wires going to the switch for netural were damadged ....a little 33 super tape and the fuse hasnt blow...

at a guess i would say the first relay is the acc which would supply power to all the gauge sensors- oil, temp, etc.......the second relay is most proberly controled by a thermal switch as theres no need for a choke on a hot engine. any chance what you think is the oil pressure switch is a...

what are you planning to do with the jeep. road/rock/mud or bigger tires? if you know what you want to do with the jeep then the guys-girls on here can tell you the best set up for your jeep. p.s i hate to ask but $200 is a little high for one axle gear set and a little low for a set of two...

if the brakes were clean when installed and have a few miles to bed in then it sounds like contaminated brake fluid proberly got pushed backwards into the pipes when the piston was pushed in to allow for the new pads. (if you undid the bleed screw to get the piston back in then the brakes will...

yep looks like the trans is the easiest now i know that the shift lever comes out with out removing the top of the transmission. i know on mine i never could get the pin out of the transfer case to remove the levers, on one end is a grease zerk and the other end was secured with a square head...

coil might be going bad and getting hot if theres no spark

i have a friends cj5 1967 with a f134 and t90/t18 that needs the clutch replaced and he wants me to help. the question is what is the fastest easiest way to replace the clutch. would pulling the motor forwards for access be easier than removing the shifters and trying to move the trans backwards?

i replaced the starter with a ebay recon i think its from a izuzi trooper. its a lot more modern and it engages with out the clunk worked great until i found a problem using this type while mudding. the drain hole is on the top...hmmm....i will take it to pieces this weekend and see if it can be...

something odd about this. (i was using info in this post to help with a diffent problem i was having great links guys) quote: It's full of fluid and isn't leaking but the clutch simply will not engage and the pedal just flops ok engage proberly is disingage......if the master/slave had...

replaced the master and the clutch it is a lot lighter now and shifts easy. the mossys were getting bad so i didnt get a chance to pull the old master to pieces but im sure that the seals are bad due to the amount of rubber pieces in the oil. something strange i noticed is the rubber cap that...

painless is for a jeep-chevy-ford and any other brand name parts you can find. the wiring gives you the basic wiring required to make a motor run and the lights to work. they are a good brand but painless ...lol if your sons jeep is standard then scrap yard harness is the way to go im sure...

im repairing my friends jeep and the last problem i have to fix is the clutch. the clutch has at some point been converted from a internal slave to a external. the external doesnt seem to have a bleed screw but im pretty sure i have it completly bleed out. now the problem - replaced fluid and...

im changing mine to a efan as the bolt on didnt make a good boat prop. the water was deeper than it looked but im sure i would have made the other side had it not of been for the fan robbing me of the few horses my poor old 4 banger had to start with...

try a timing light to see if you have a spark and if its anywhere near the correct time. (you said you had replaced the distrubitor) if you have no spark and the light doesnt work then for fun you could check that the dizzy center pin hasnt fell out and that the factory remebered to install a...

possible ignition coil getting hot causing the coil to short. works when coil cools down-air flow sensor needle recieving a bad signal (drop of water on needle) might happen after getting in water-plugged cat causing back pressure or o2 sensor wiring broken-efi harness melted on muffler causing...
