Ok so layin under the heep, ATM. The linkage is defiantly off, I went I push it foward into 2wd and it just slipped right on in there, but with the lever 4part time is as far as it'll go.

 

Is it ok to wheel the xj with the doors off ??

 

I do, and so do a few guys I wheel with. I don't wheel with doors on anymore cause I like being able to see.

 

An upgrade:

But will it mess up the body cuz I wanna be able to put the doors back on later ??

 

OK so now I am second guessing myself. I installed a new timing chain and sprockets on my son's 89 Cherokee. Had the arrows on the sprockets pointing at each other all is good there ! My question is was the #1 piston supposed to be at TDC before the install of the timing chain and sprockets ?? The more I read about this procedure the more I second guess myself.

 

The unibody will flex regardless. Some people say it's much worse without doors, and others don't have a problem. I haven't had a problem.





Lines up just fine.

 

Another thing while I got your help, Would you say these are sagging? I havent seem new springs to compare to.

 

Yep, but it's normal. I've seen much worse.

By the way, you should go here and fill out your info in the last section:

Lol, I was just hadnt got around to it. would a add-a-leaf 2" kit bring it back to stock+ 2" of lift? I wanna do a 2" budget boost. but If I am going to need new leafs I might as well do 3" kit and get it all...

 

My part time light has not worked since I bought my xj but you can sure as hell tell when its in 4wheel or not.... Yea 60mph on dry roads not good. I just never decided to change out or fix the sensor on the trans for the part time light. So just because light doesn't go on doesn't mean its not in 4wheel but youd had to of pulled the lever up to 4hi at some point..

 

My lights work, and yeah I had had it in 4pt,4ft,and 4lo to make sure it worked and when I was playing with it. But I didnt know it didnt disengage.

 

I have a 1991 Cherokee Limited with the fancy interior including the overhead console with temp/compass. When I bought the truck years ago, I knew then the outside temp gauge sensor did not work (mounted behind the front license plate) as the gauge always read 5degrees Celsius. The compass worked fine though. Recently the overhead display went blank altogether. Very recently it has started flashing on and off usually lighting all segments of the LED. Anybody got an idea where I should start????

 

Is there any cons to running a 1 ton crossover steering upgrade with a front locker?

 

I have a 4.5" lift and I'm starting to hear and feel some popping in my steering, I was thinking of replacing my stock pitman arm, any suggestions on what to replace it with to elimate this issue?
