There's a vacuum storage reservoir on the back side of the front bumper. The hoses run from it to the firewall. One line goes through the firewall to the heater control. It's black. The pink line going through the firewall goes to the heater control valve if it's still on there. I have diagrams for both the CAD axle system and the vacuum system but I can't post them from my iPad.

Pulled my transmission for a swap. I'm going to start scrubbing pretty much everything under the jeep, including the new transmission. I've got a t case clocking jig coming in this week that I'd like to use before the transmission goes back in. Then I'll be looking into belly skids, I want to stay low.

Moving the vacuum reservoir up under the coolant bottle.
And, eliminating the troublesome CAD system.

Got my new M.O.R.E. shackles installed on the YJ and replaced the leaf spring that's twice been inverted. Thanks to my89xj for helping out.

I'm in the process of replacing/repainting the interior. (1990 XJ Laredo) I've done the entire headliner, replaced radio, painted the upper trim with bumper paint, and have repainted the roof a desert tan (Krylon camo: khaki). Its turned out rather well. Going to work on the hood next then the other panels.

.roadraje;2798705]Plan on installing the same in my daughters '99, got any tips or things I should know before I do. I watched a tutorial and it seems straightforward, did you use a spring compressor? I looked at the Rustys set-up as well but I'm open to opinions.
