Clearly you are an accomplished enthusiast, thank you for the diagrams. That is a shame that your Ariel doesnt work, I am unable to help you with that sorry. What I will say is that over 20 years ago that was the problem with my XJ tho it was a case of the original owner trying to force it...

Thank you Rob. I know of Quadratec and will remember it when the time comes. Kindest Regards. G.

Hello, taking a different track. It might be worth having a pro security system fitted. My 94 has a kit called the Toad. It is an immobiliser and alarm. comes with two central locking key fobs and two keys for the immobiliser touchpad on the lower dash. It has other features which I rarely use...

Hello and thanks for helping. On that chart table I found the cog needed. But the links on that page do not work. Just says page 404. My old friend in Oregon is not a car person, so I can only recommend him to search in a particular direction. or parts supplier local to him. Likely Eugene. I...

Hello Markus, As Mr Dragonslayer states about the ebay accordion manifolds, I concur with his assessment that they are bombproof. The flanges are in mild steel but they are thick, the main body is in 316 stainless or later production in 904 stainless, I was in contact with one of the...

Hello again Rob, thank you for that valuable info. I will look into it. For now I still have standard wheels and tyres. But when I upsize the tyres to 30`s I will carefully scrutinize the measured actual roadspeed. I anticipate that the differences may not be too great, between speedo and true...

Hello Rob, here is a guy who shows you a number of different ways to test and or bypass the switch in question. He has over 20 yrs experience and has over 700 XJ`s in his USA breakers yard. He is brilliant and has the most wonderful accent. From what I understand the switches are very expensive...

My apologies for being a bit slow on this matter. I should really open the hood and take a look. I searched ebay uk for `cherokee 94 viscous coupling` there are loads of new ones. Do you think they are all LHD versions...

Hey mate, everything alright your end. So its not the viscous coupling that goes bad its the bearing behind it itself. That is outrageous $600. its odd that there is not an aftermarket bearing to replace it, as usually they are recognized sizes. If mine goes wrong then its gonna have to be the 3...

Hi Wolvey, Hope your week has started well. That T Bone sounds just awful, did the heft of the XJ save your life, I hope so.. So sorry to hear the car was in that too. Another one lost to fate. It must of been a sound car to reach that mileage. Well the 3 fans are very attractive and I would...

Just a shot in the dark, but a friend had similar issues. It is what we call the PNR switch. Park, Neutral, Reverse. It is below the shift lever on the outside of the car and can be dismantled for cleaning. Even after cleaning my mates one it didnt work properly and had to be replaced. It is a...

I looked on the net for the 3 fan and there are tons of them on ebay uk. They are extraordinarily cheap some include an alu radiator too. Not much more than £100. What manufacturer did you go with, as you being a pro driver, you surely picked a good one. Did it come with a belt, I would love to...

Thanks for replying, the 3 fans sounds very trick, I would like to see it, I know google is my friend. lol The short belt might be a problem, getting replacements for example. Unless it is designed for a current model of any comparable make of car, its unlikely to find them here. The standard...

I have hood vents on my 94. 4.0l here in the UK. They were from a later model Jeep Cherokee called the Orvis. They came with drip trays though I do not have those fitted, just the vents only. Being OEM Jeep parts you may find some in The USA, as new old stock. Just a thought and they are...

Hello Buddy, thanks for your advice. Do you mean having 3 cooling fans. I have the standard viscous coupling fan and I swapped the Aux fan for the multiblade fan from the later Grand Cherokee. I will also remove the AC condenser from in front of the radiator to increase air flow. You are correct...
