My check engine light came on Friday morning for the first time ever. I guess I should be thankful, as it now has 174K on the odometer. LOL! Anyway, Autozone pulled the code, which was PO141, indicating the downstream O2 sensor. All of my underhood fuses are good, and a quick trace of the wires...

Woke up this morning to find that my '96 XJ will not idle at all. My wife woke me up to tell me that it wouldn't start, so I got up to check it out. Up until this morning, it has always started on the first crank. Today, it cranked a few times, then started right up. It revs up just fine, but...

I have a new in box Old Man Emu Steering Stabilizer that I bought for my XJ, but never got around to installing it. I still have the receipt where I purchased it from Quadratec for $86.98 shipped. For 84-06 Jeep Cherokee XJ, Grand Cherokee ZJ, Wrangler YJ, Wrangler TJ & Unlimited. Part number...

Upon removing my front brake calipers, I noticed that the driver's side guide rails that the brake pads slide on are worn on the inside of both the top and bottom rails (the area where the inner pad rides.) Can I get some sort of abutment clips to correct this, or is building the worn area up...

Is there any difference between the Hella 500FF and Hella 700FF lights other than size, or does the 700FF offer a higher output? Why doesn't the Hella website list candlepower ratings like KC does? I've been looking at various models of Hella and KC lights online the last week or so. I'm...

I took my '96 XJ to a very reputable differential shop to have 4.56 gears installed. Upon picking it up, I immediately noticed a strange knocking/thumping noise emitting from the front end area as soon as I pulled from their parking lot and took off down the road. The sound was definitely...

I am at my wit's end. I am attempting to change the axle u-joint on a Dana 30 in my '96, and it's a nightmare. Heck, pulling the hub was child's play, and I had the axle out in well under a half hour. But this u-joint is something else. It is a factory original one with 160,000 miles on it. I...

I have the following rear disc brake components for sale from a '94-98 Jeep Grand Cherokee: Left caliper mount (part # 4796343) Right caliper mount (part # 4796342) Left backing plate (part # 4762129) Right backing plate (part # 4762128) Left parking brake lever (part # 4762130) Right parking...

I plan to convert my XJ to rear disc brakes. My plan is to use Jeep Liberty hardware instead of Grand Cherokee, since they came from the factory with 8.25" axles. From what I've seen, the ZJ brake hoses have mounting brackets, while the KJ hoses do not. Could I use the ZJ hoses with KJ calipers?

My wife is looking for a 1996 or newer XJ in stock condition. We already have a lifted '96, so one lifted XJ in the family is plenty. :laugh: She really only has a few criteria: 1. Must have an auto transmission. 2. Must have a 4.0L engine. 3. No body damage other than small dings. She...

I'm scrounging up parts for a ZJ rear disc brake swap for my XJ. I got a great deal on all the parts to do it, but the backing plates (dust shields) have seen better days and are quite rusty. The local salvage yards don't have any -- probably you guys nabbing every rear disc set-up that hits the...

I have a '96 XJ with an 8.25 axle in it that I am planning to swap ZJ disc brakes onto. Does anyone have an old DRUM brake backing plate lying around that they can measure the center hole in? Instead of fumbling around trying to grind the ZJ backing plate holes larger by hand to fit my axle (I...

I took my '96 XJ to a highly reputable shop to have 4.56 gears installed in both axles. This shop has been in business for probably 30 years, and ALL they do is gears -- nothing else. They were highly recommended when I first heard of them a little over 20 years ago. Anyway, I made the...

Jeep Part # 52067631 I have for sale a 31-tooth speedometer from Mopar (#52067631). It is a short shaft gear for 1993-2001 XJ's, and corrects the speedometer for the following combinations: 3:55 gears with 32" tires 3:73 gears with 33" tires Quadratech sells it for $74.99 + shipping...

I have a '96 with 4.0L. I'm wanting to order a new catalytic convertor and muffler, but am unsure as to the stock exhaust diameter. My XJ is about 50 miles from here getting lower gears installed, so I can't crawl under it and measure. From my searching here, I THINK that it is 2.25" from the...

I'm planning to replace my broken factory fog lights with aftermarket lights. What is the highest wattage I can install and still use my existing factory switch, wiring, relays, etc.? I don't want to melt any wires.

I currently have a Rubicon Express 3.5" super-flex lift kit installed on my '96 XJ, and am considering upgrading it to 4.5" specs. From my reasearch it appears that the following parts are the only differences between the two kits: RE1141 -- swaybar disconnects RE1310 -- 4.5" coil springs...

Does anyone in southern Indiana have a spare 29-spline Chrysler 8.25" axle assembly? I'm looking to upgrade my current 27 spline to 29 spline, and plan to regear to 4.56. All I really need are the pair of axles and carrier with spider gears, but will consider the entire axle assembly if cheap...

The BarneyMobile when I purchased it in November 2003 (6 years ago): How it looked in February 2007 after I joined NAXJA: 1996 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4.0L H.O. engine AW4 automatic transmission AMC (Dana) 30 non-disconnect front differential (3.55:1) Chrysler 8.25" 27-spline rear...

I'm getting ready to regear my D30 and 27-spline 8.25" from 3.55 to 4.56. It is a daily driver with 32's that sees highway use as well as snow/ice. Selectable lockers are a little more than I'd like to invest in a 14-year old vehicle that has yet to encounter serious wheeling and only leaves the...
