Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Gah, I REALLY just want to leave work right about now.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

- 10.5" diameter, 10 spline, 1.063" diameter clutch disc
- 10.5" diameter pressure plate
- Stock 4.0 flywheel
- 81-82 CJ-7 2.5L slave cylinder
- Stock AX-15 master cylinder
- Throwout bearing not sure about yet, I think 81-82 CJ-7

So I think tomorrow I'm going to go to my parts guy and order everything I need for the NP435 (he's great at cross referencing parts based on dimensions/part numbers) and also I'm going to order up the gaskets (all Fel-Pro, had great luck with them) I need for Travis's old 4.0:

Valve Cover (Cork/Rubber = $6, Rubber/metal insert = $40...I think I'm going to stick with cork, just have to retorque the bolts every couple months)
Oil Pan
Rear Main
Timing Cover/Front Main
Oil Filter O-rings (dealer I guess? Anyone know where to get these online?)
Intake/Exhaust

I think I'm just going to go with a stock style replacement manifold as they're cheap. I have an APN on my XJ and didn't notice a difference at all. Also, not going to bother with the 99+ intake swap. Didn't notice much gain with that either.

Thoughts?

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Oh and I also need to redo the wiring for a couple wires in the engine bay to make them 1 or 2 AWG.

Probably going to go with 1 AWG.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Thoughts - rubber/metal valve cover gasket :twak: :spin1:
RockAuto has the OFA O-rings, not sure the set they have fits though, I'll tell you when I get my shipment. Set cost me under 6 bucks, not sure exactly.

Other than that... is it leaking anything around the distributor? I'm leaking so much oil that I just bought all the common ones and I'm going to replace gaskets till the problem goes away. RockAuto has the distributor gasket for less than 2 bucks too.

EDIT: my fel-pro rubber/metal valve cover gasket cost me 33 on rockauto.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Yeah, i really need to upgrade my alternator wiring since I threw a 118A alt in there.

all sounds good, if you get a stock stle manifold make sure its one of the ones witth the flex tube on the #1&6 pipes to prevent cracking in the future

PM me the PN for the o-rings when you get it, I'll probably snag those and maybe the distributor gasket. His 4.0 was pissing oil out of every orifice so I wouldn't be surprised if it needs it.

As for the valve cover gasket, IDK, I've never had a problem using the cork gaskets up there. I've done a couple of them and they never end up leaking. I guess it probably IS easier to get the rubber/metal one.

I'm also going to make a list of all the wiring I need to order from DelCity on Saturday too. I believe there's about 6 wires I can upgrade...

+ to Starter
+ to PDC
+ to ALT
- to block
- block to firewall
- to body

Ken, which lugs would you run?

I'm probably going to order a couple loom clamps as well since the factory used ziptie push pin type deals and those are all broken/trashed.

I'd use the green or the purple ones. The die cast ones look nice but I don't like cast materials when I can avoid them due to brittleness.

Be forewarned, for some of the lugs you may need to drill out the hole if you aren't careful when selecting. Measure the head bolt stud that the firewall-to-head cable goes under before buying the lug that will go on that one.

The OFA gasket set I got was Dorman 82560, but like I said I don't know for sure if it's got the right stuff yet. Might be different for a later year 4.0 OFA (mine is the vertical mount), in general I have really good luck with RockAuto's parts catalog and Dorman in general.

X2, I want my rockauto order, according to fedex it'll be here tomorrow though :yelclap:

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Thanks for the info Ken.

One other thing, do you know of anywhere that has a terminal with two 6mm holes? My PDC from Carmelos XJ has that setup. Spaced about .750" apart.

What are you doing with the 99+ swap stuff in your XJ??

I'll take it if you wouldn't be against parting with it! :thumbup:

 

[MoparManiac]

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

NP dude, I can't complain about the price of the engine :thumbup:

I might hang on to the 99+ stuff. Looooooong term plan includes a stroker.

Nope :dunno: You could probably make one custom, or simply get a strip of copper of the right thickness and bore two holes in it to bridge the two together then use a single-hole terminal. Let me know if you want to do that, I have assorted copper stock in ~4" square pieces ranging from .031" to around 3/32" iirc.

 

[MoparManiac]

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Probably not a bad idea, could just get the right 1 AWG terminal, cut the stud end off, solder on the new piece of copper square and be good to go?

 

[kastein]

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Yeah, though I wouldn't want to solder it... I'd braze it at the very least. An end to end solder/braze won't have the same strength that simply layering a longer strip on and then soldering/brazing the two together face to face would. I'd worry about vibration/flexing breaking the joint over time without a significant overlap.

 

[MoparManiac]

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Very true.

I'll see if I can save the terminal as a whole and reuse it then.

 

[kastein]

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

good luck with that... unless they chryslered it up that is :roflmao: Then it should come off the wire very easily.

The part numbers in that thread are for a 90. For a 91, you want the following MOPAR parts... have not looked for a seller yet.
1x 5300 9243 (front elbow) - if you want to upgrade to the 92/93 design, 5303 0054 instead.
1x 5300 9241 (rear elbow, with orifice)
1x 5300 6239 (front hose)
1x 5300 6229 (rear hose)

HELL YES!!! YOU ARE GOING TO KICK EVERYONE'S ASS!!!

ross, awesome deal.

Now those are some badass tires

Can I hug them?! They're almost my height, and on wheels I bet they weigh as much as me.

Sweet dude!
Good choice on the TEN Factory shafts.
300M double splined shafts for the 14b though? That is HUGE bucks.

Not mine!

Oh hey look, I posted that on April 1st.......
































I felt like having some fun, I knew i could fool you guys late in the day...........!..!.


I WISH I bought these, its a smokin deal and I would in a heart beat. If theyre still available in a few months, I might scoop them up.

No, on mine...

This is what it looks like right now. I was thinking about hacking the upper grill guard part off and reusing it on a bumper that I build.

Wow... you really went to town on that thing!
Oh well, I guess I'll end up just building one. It'll be the last thing I do though.

GheyRB

Welding extras? What are those? No need to deal with that with TIG...

thats right, you wouldnt know what those are cause i bought all new stuff with two sets of new spares and a buttload of filler rods .!.:d.!.
