I think I read in either the Haynes guide or Eric's XJ book that overtightening something in the steering box will do that. Will look it up once I find the books and report back

I got Eric's book sitting here under the laptop. Totally forgot I had the thing.

Any brand with a lifetime warranty like craftsman or kobalt, I am sure there are lots of others I have good experience with kobalt absolutely no questions asked replacement at lowes but I don't know it they make flex head racheting wrenches.

Found 7 piece gearwrench sae & metric sets on sale for $45 ea. Made in china w/ lifetime warranty. But the craftsman ones were $69 made in taiwan. Lose lose. So i went cheap. Besides, the ratcheting mechanism felt much better on the gearwrench ones.

Yea it's hard to buy American made tools when you can get foreign ones with a lifetime waranty for half the price or less I would love to only buy American tools but it's simply not justifyable

Need to know how to adjust my new renix tps asap please. Cant search on phone

Edit: borrowed a computer. I forgot to turn the idle adjustment screw back to original before i adjusted the tps so it idles at 1100 but other than that she runs like a top now that its on and the tb cleaned

i swapped my grinding tcase with one from an ax15 manual. I have an auto AW4, is there a difference in the speedo gear? if there is can i just swap the one from my old tcase?

if so, can i swap it out without dropping the tcase again? really would prefer not to...

When I swapped my 99 tc to a 94 I spliced in the plug from the donor tc for the speedo sensor to work.

So it's the wiring not the speedo gear? Sweet, that'll be easy to change

I was wondering if anyones ever looked into ordering the entire right hand drive set up from Australia or something?

Well 94 to 99 the wiring did change a bit. For a tcase swap between Jeeps with AX15 and AW4 of otherwise the same specs you will need to change the speedo gear out as they came with different axle ratios (3.07 on manual models, 3.55 for auto, on 1999s, anyway).

AFAIK all NP231s use the same speedo gear, and I think you can yank the sensor without having to drop it. Just swap with the one from your old tcase.

I am really interested in the injector upgrade, i only get about 15.5 mpg right now and know it will go down once the wheels are on, so..

i have a 2000 and i havent seen anyone with a 99+ 4.0 doing the swap, or i havent found it yet. is it a valid mod for my motor?

I have a 1988 Jeep Comanche 4.0L, 4WD, Auto Trans, 232 T-case, 35 front and rear axles. I did front end work to her yesterday and in the process pulled the front axles out. anyway, the problem is the 4 wheel drive is not engaging. It has been working good in the past and i recently changed the fluid in the t-case and diffs. I have no dash light. the lever slides into all gears with no problems. getting into 4-lo still acts as always, sometimes having to roll the truck to get it to slide into gear so im guessing the transfer case isnt the problem. i can put it in 4 hi and spin my rear tires all day long (theres snow on the ground). its like my front axles just arent engaging...??? any help would be great. Ive been reading on the vacuum assist in those things. not too sure whats going on there yet. would pulling the axles out cause some sort of problem with the vacuum system? Thanks
