front axle vacuum lines
I am having a issue with my 4wd not working I looked under my jeep this morning in the snow and the vac lines werent attached. I was wondering if anyone has pictures of how these are supposed to hook up?

Thats no problem I think its fixed now I would not suggest putting screw driver bits in vacuum lines to plug them..

when I bought my 90, it was missing the adapter piece (vac lines to axle .. hoses just hanging)
I went to a junkyard & looked at 1, used rubber hoses as links, 4x4 worked fine after
I sold mine .. so cant tell you what color hose goes where .. JY closeby ?
hopefully someone on here will go look at theirs for you .. its very easy to hook up.
i bought a JY adapter, but it didnt fit too good, bulk rubber hose did the trick .. it worked better after i gently sprayed cleaner into vac lines & diaphargm ports, they were plugged a bit from dirt .. that dirt wouldnt allow 4x4 to kick in at 10k elevation .. good luck, its easy

The adapter was there the people i got it from plugged the vac lines once i unplugged them and re attached them to the vac unit it worked. Now i just have to figure out all the other little stuff.

Trans switch the speedometer?
I had a small ma and pa shop take the CAD system out of my YJ when I had it. I think they put XJ shafts in there. Never worried about that again. I had it pop off before. Got stuck in sand because of it. Worth looking into.
