Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
welcome to the club.
I'm about to go use an angle grinder and a drill press to build some prototypes using... jeep parts.
Everyone else at the company makes fun of me for using jeep parts, but where the hell else can I get a bearing assembly with that kind of side load capability 5 minutes after walking through the door, for under a hundred bucks? They couldn't answer that one very well.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Jeep is done except for hydraulics, front driveshaft, and CPS.
I forgot the clutch slave/hose at home so I couldn't do the hydraulics tonight, I'm getting new front driveshaft bolts since mine are almost stripped, and Jeep apparently changed the CPS connector sometime between 93 and 99 and I failed to notice while the trans was out so I get to replace it while it's in the Jeep now. Damnit.
Whatever. Eating a bomb steak and cheese calzone and drinking beer while cleaning and packing gun stuff and swapping a stock on the mosin before working from home tomorrow and heading to VT tomorrow night. I can't complain too much.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Does your 93 have the round style CPS connector, the oval one with the round pins, or the oval one with the flat pins? I know they changed it sometime between 91 and 96, and also may have changed it sometime between 95 and 97.
Why not just put the original CPS back in? Unless you managed to damage it putting the trans in or removing it, it is perfectly fine... not a wear item, they break at random.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Ummm, I'm pretty sure mine is the oval with round pins but I'll have to take a 2nd look. I didn't really look at it much other than "WTF IT DOESN'T FIT ARHGHAHHSDASD"
And I will be putting the original CPS in, I just didn't do it tonight since the bolts didn't want to break free easy so I soaked it with PB and I'll change it on Monday when I'm back from VT. I planned on swapping in my original CPS from the start because it's pretty new (I replaced it last year)... I just forgot to swap it onto the new bellhousing before installing the trans :doh:
Mosin stock swapped. That was pretty easy.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
You probably saved yourself some annoyance by forgetting to put it on the bellhousing before installing the trans. That's a damn good way to shred it bashing it against the flywheel while trying to get the transmission into place.
It's really pretty easy to get in after the fact, I've done two now and never took more than ten minutes, unless you count the time it took me to pour a few gallons of water over the bellhousing so I could swap the CPS without getting second degree burns... torque converters that have been melting down for ~100 miles tend to heat the bellhousing up quite well.
I guess the round CPS connector was only a 91-92 thing. It was a pretty stupid design, so I don't blame them for changing it, I just wish they'd gone right to the flat-pin oval case style they used for the OBD2 years instead of going to a round pin oval case first.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
it's half OBD2. They changed random things, but not everything. And then they changed some of it again in 97 just for shits and giggles, and a few more things in 98.
Damn chrysler and their wiring :wierd:

What are the chances of the 60 regearing as quick and easy as the 14b did? Why do I get the feeling its gunna be a bitch and fight me the whole time? I would love to get it all geared Saturday and then assemble the rest of the axle Sunday.
