Could be the tps going bad. You can check them but you really need to use an analog meter so you can see the sweep. Should be able to check the solenoids by checking resistance at the aw4 harness in the engine bay. You'd need to find the pin out in the fsm to see which wires are for the...

Solenoids are about 50/50 for kicking codes in my experience. But I've learned never to be surprised when it comes to Jeeps and electrical issues not following rules. I just know with mine, it throws 0700 0758 and 1898 every time my one solenoid sticks. It used to be about half the time and got...

Okay well that solves that, last thing, could the zj d30 in 97 have 760 shafts or is that internet bulls**t and they're all the cvs? I'm less than thrilled about finding the tiny ujoints up front. Especially since i now have two 760x spicer joints collecting dust Sent from my SM-G900P using...

Thought some zjs use cv, some use u joints. It's a dana 30 front from a zj. But I could be mistaken, which is why I'm here asking the jeep gurus. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

Quick question, turns out my 97xj is a true Frankenstein. Using 260 shafts in the front 30. There just so happens to be a lp30 out of a 97zj next door i can grab for chicken feed....do they have the 760 shafts and will they fit length wise. I figure pitch and spline should be the same correct...

Okay quick question transmission gurus, 98 aw4 into a 97. Just gotta swap tail cone, rotor, oss......correct? Orrrr better off getting rid of the 98 aw4. I don't NEED the 98, but it was 30$ with 70k on it and was told it was a 97, then i saw the ISS. But for the price I couldn't pass it up...

I didn't :( I'm gonna see what the old one looks like and clean it up. If it's really bad then I'm gonna be in a bit of a spot. But i don't expect it to be. And figure using it again won't be an issue since some guys put in used plates and even go as far as re-using bolts. Sent from my...

It was for a 97,but i already grabbed a Mopar oem replacement. Btw for anyone that stumbles across this, the spacer ring? Flexplate washer? Idk what the actual name is, has been discontinued by chrysler. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

Haha, well, the more i thought about it the more i figured it'd be safer to just go mopar so i picked one up earlier today. Annnd after seeing that picture, i am soooo glad i didn't even try. I don't plan on pulling that trans more than once. Thanks for reassuring me that i didn't just throw the...

Flexplate has been knocking at me and it's time to give in and tear into it. Was just curious if the atp plates are any good. I normally try to go middle of the road price/performance on parts buttt with plates i figure two things, 1)it's just stamped metal with no electronics to be skimped on...

Yeah everything kicks and clicks with the defrost and ac. And she runs fine, short of the crack in the flexplate knocking at me. That makes sense and isnt as concerning. I'm not an a/c guy anyhow. I just got nervous seeing a wire with that low of gauge not hooked to anything. Thanks guys i...

Okay, so after wandering through the fsm, the bumper connector is likely ambient temp sensor for an overhead display. Still can't figure the other two. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

So I've been going over, through, and around a bargain bin 97xj I picked up. Being my first jeep I'm learning on the go and after banging out a bunch of other things that needed attention i finally got around to rebuilding the alternator. In doing so, i found a couple wires with no homes. 1 is...

New xj guy here but old on the mechanical know how, figured I'd chime in....light discolor of oil and a little grossness on the oil cap can come from moisture build up from the sitting. Buttt usually is a crack and non-tupy 331 heads are a gamble to begin with. Some last some crack. Pull the...
