1990 jeep Cherokee XJ First with the good Starting from the ground up Sites on 35x12.50x15 super swamper tires with match full size spare and rim. Front is a Dana 44 with 488 gears. Rear is a ford nine inch with a Detroit locker and 488’s. Also six states just re-did the bearings and seals...

Right now my xj is running the 16” Moab Rubicon wrangler rims on 31” tires with no rubbing. I am thinking of moving up to 33” tires. what width of wheel spacers would I need to make sure I am not going to rub the frame in the front when I steer? Also I will be installing an 8.8 explorer axle...

Yup I bought mine from Autozone.

Now that you mention it the 96 had the idiot dash where I have replaced the 93 with gages.

I just put a 195 thermostat in. everything I have been reading on the other web sites says I should try to keep it as close to that as possible.

I hope somebody can answer my questions. A little back ground as to what I have done to this point. I took a 93 Cherokee I6 automatic that didn’t have a motor or transmission and dropped a 96’s drive train into it to use as my daily. I did swap out the 96’s oil pressure sending unit and the temp...

I am trying to finish up my 93 cherokees transmision and motor swap. I dropped a 96's motor and trans with 120,000miles into it. I changed the oil preassure sensor and the temp sensor at the back of the block top driver side. In doing so the gage in the dash slowly starts to peg out saying it is...

has anyone put a Airtex Electric Fuel Pump in there xj? I am trying to put in mine and I am having trouble making it fit. I dropped the tank. Removed the old one. put the new one in and is almost like the stems coming out the top of the pump is to long. I thought I might have gotten the wrong...

242 transfer case (SOLD)

parting out a 96xj. A lot of it I am moveing over to my xj project. But Off the top of my head here is a list of things that I am not going to use. I am looking to get ride of this stuff ASAP. Otherwise to the yard it goes. If you need something call or message me I might have it. of course best...

where can I pick one of these up at? I have looked at lowes autozone and sears.

Another question that has popped up. I have a borla exhaust on the motor. I have tried to put the knock sensor back in the location that the original motor had it (driver side back of the block just above the oil pan.) The exhaust manifold is slightly covering it making it impossible to put the...

I am wrapping up this motor swap and making sure all of the sensors etc are in place. The motor is out of a 93xj OBDI. The 90xj renix has the 4.0 I6 coolant temp sensor on the driver side on the block. What tool and size do I need to get the plug out to put the renix sensor back in?

I did some web searching and found that the 88.5-91 AX15 tranny has a smaller end on the input shaft that goes into the pilot bearing than the 92-04 AX15s do. The bearing that went over the tranny but had too much slop in the crank needs a bushing along with the bearing. From what I read the...

Anybody have any ideas on this pilot bearing question. I bought what AutoZone said is a 4.0l 95 jeep Cherokee pilot bearing. The bearing diameter goes on the output shaft to the transmission ok but has way too much diameter slop for the crank on the motor. I went to Checker and it’s just the...
