    about timing adjustments?

    1051426 I completed your upgrade about a month ago and did NOT touch the timing (mainly because at the time I didn't have a timing light). To this date I haven't had any problems and am getting 16 MPG. Let me know if I should advance or retard my timing. [addsig]

    NOn Jeep Tech Question?

    Leaky 231 x-fer case

    1053933 :-) It does help, thanks. I guess to avoid having to purchase the bushing removal tool, i could just purchase the rear extension housing that comes with the bushing already included. That way I won't have to worry about removing the old one. One other thing, is it a messy job? Will I...

    TFI Install - Another Long-Winded install story

    1053935 :-D :-D I completed the same upgrade on my 4.2 and also noticed that it was much smoother overall. However, I did NOT adjust the timing for the same reasons you identified (mainly I didn't have a timing light). Anyway, it runs great so I would hate to go against the "if it ain't broke...

    JEEP HELP

    1054298 :-) I also have the 89 with the 4.2. In addition to all the previous good replys, I HIGHLY recommend the ignition upgrade located on the site in the "How To" Section. Basically it adds a more powerful coil, larger distributed cap and regapped plugs. I completed the upgrade in an hour...

    scrambler making a come back in mid 2004...........

    1054588 The BRUTE is bad a$$. :-) I would live to get one but the funds won't allow it. Heck, I can't find enough spare coin for a real lift and some meats, gears, lockers, etc.. I can hardly get enough to conduct the required repairs/upgrades let alone get something from my "dream sheet". Ah...

    Popping the ???

    1071185 :-D DEFINATELY buy the ring on your own. As the years have passed I can't count how many times I've heard "and he picked it out on his own, I was so impressed". That alone is worth more that gold. Since it sounds like she already knows that you are going to look - do just that -...

    wiring a soundbar

    1071221 This may tak a bit longer, however you will then be sure. Remove the speaker grill, take out the screws and look at how the wires connect to the speaker. The one with the smaller connection is the negative. Good luck. :lol: [addsig]

    Mr. Heat Miser

    1069902 :-( Thanks for the replys. I guess I was hoping for that amazing, perfect fix. I took the carpet out because when it would get wet, it would stay wet underneath which finally equaled a rusted floor board. Oh well, back to the drawing board. :-) [addsig]
