i think he meant not sticking. i just replaced my calipers though because they were stixking after heavy braking or once they got hot. 30 bucks for the pair of calipers after returning cores isworth peace of mind.

Don't take this with offense, but if you ask this question you need to do alot more research. There are many different combinations of stroker motors available. Anywhere from a mild 4.2 to a wild and out 5.0 I6. Do some heavy research ad stroking your motor is a big investment of time/money.

Recently pulled dash for Heuer core in my 88 XJ. I keep trying to recharge the AC with actual gauges and I'm having issues. My compressor won't engage. Was there something behind the dash I may have disconneted?
I'm not new to AC so you don't dumb down the answers.
I pulled vaccum twice and it held fine but the moment I add refrigerant both gauges go to about 70 psi with half a single can of refrigerant and it won't kick on to suck the rest up. The compressor worked fine until I pulled everything apart. Had been filled and recharged multiple times with no issue.

Someone posted on facebook that a manual rear's driveshaft is 2"s longer than aw4 driveshafts. Is this true? Thinking it would be a nice swap being at 4"s, no vibes but why not.

Indeed. They're an inch longer or so and run at nearly identical angles.
Careful what you read on that site. There is an enormous amount of bad info (that isn't trolling)

Check and make sure you are getting voltage to and through the LP switch on the accumulator. I'd also check and make sure you got the harness securely plugged back into the back of the HVAC controls in the dash. Is your Electric fan kicking on? Got the blower on high?
I'm going to check the harness and see if I can get voltage from the lap connector right now and see what I get

If the efan isnt kicking on I would check wiring. IIRC it's in the same wiring as the compressor. Your LP switch is before that also.

But what about the slip yoke? I'm thinking about swapping one for the slip yoke, I'm sure mine is pulled out a little from the lift.
