Help! The dealer only had the two larger o rings for my ofa on my 87. I finally found one that fits from ace hardware but am leary of using it because I don't know the temp rating or anything on it...should I use it or not? Need jeep put back together asap

Two things: will a 97+ tank work in my 89, with my current fuel pump? And with a t-case drop, do I need to extend any linkages?

Not worth the time and money. Go to 4.56 gearing or not at all

I've been looking at some syes for the 90 xj and from most of the photos I don't see them having a port for the vacuum switch for the front axle. Will the sye have a port for this switch or not? Thanks
