I have an 88 YJ and when I was taking the rollcage out to paint the tub and cage, I noticed that the nut welded into the hole in the windshield that the front bar of the roll cage bar bolts to has rusted and ripped through the metal leaving a large hold. The bolt was never attached. LOL...

I really need some pros and cons from the Jeepers about some of the things the PO did on my 1988 YJ. It has an I6 (258) Jasper motor with an AX-15 transmission. It is presently fitted with a Weber 34DGEC but I am replacing that with an MC2150 soon. The carb. has an electric choke presently. I...

1988 Wrangler YJ with 4.2 258 engine. Recently nuttered in process of removing all the wires and the computer. This sensor is in the intake manifold toward the front of the vehicle. Is it a Manifold Absolute Temperature (MAT) sensor? Second, when I removed it a flow of anti-freeze came out of...

I have finished the nutter bypass on my 88 YJ. Unplugged and remove the ECU afterwards, started the Jeep. Never ran better than it does now, amazing. I went ahead and removed the damn computer altogether and traced and removed all wires that were connected to it. I still have to splice...

Have a 1988 YJ, gonna replace blown brake lines with stainless. The steel brake lines that are in there seem wrong. Specifically, the brake line that goes from the proportioning valve to the passenger side front disk brake. It is running out the front of the jeep in front of the grill from...

The Brake Pressure Differential Switch Connector I have is damaged. I would like to buy a new one to solder on the end of the wire so I can plug it into the proportioning valve. Anyone know where I can get one?

I have a 1988 Wrangler YJ with a re-manufactured Jaspar 4.2L. I have this 3-barrel connector thing attached to one of my valve cover studs. Can you tell me what it is? And do I need to keep it if nuttering or converting to HEI?

Bought this 88 Wrnagler YJ last year and I have a few questions on electrical connectors. The Jeep is a 4.2L with an AX-15 manual transmission. The carburetor is a Weber 34DGEC soon to be replaced with a MC2150. The engine is a Jaspar 258 re-manufactured. Please tell me what the following...

1988 Jeep Wrangler YJ Laredo, 4.2L, manual transmission I am switching out my brake booster with a new one. I am disconnecting the booster push rod to brake pedal connection under the dash. I am using a Haynes manual and they make a statement about how the assembly should be connected that is...

Fellow Jeepers. I have a 1988 Wrangler YJ. I am about to (today) replace the fuel and brake lines. On the stock Jeep there are a series of plastic and rubber mounting clamps and clips that are used to secure these lines. Most of my clamps and clips are broken and I do not know where to get...

I have a 1988 Wrangler Laredo with the 4.2L and an AX-15 manual transmission. It has the original distributor, factory air conditioning (I KNOW, I did not order it), etc. It also has a Weber 34 DGEC carburator, the Carter is GONE. I would like to remove the damned ECM and make this Jeep what it...

It has become obvious that people will use an inline fuel filter between the gas tank and the the fuel pump and also between the fuel pump and the carburetor. Would it be prudent/sensible to include the same configuration with a mechanical fuel pump? If yes, where? At the moment I have...

I have bought a multi-owner 1988 Jeep Wrangler YJ with a 4.2L. A previous owner placed a Mr. Gasket electric fuel pump in the ENGINE BAY (huge NO NO via the manufacture, all over the instructions not to, PO did it anyway, DUMB). I would like to get all the messy PO aftermarket garbage out of...
