Here is a good one for you guys.........89 cherokee. It seems while I'm trying to put this thing back together the mice in the neighborhood needed to build a new house and did so in my heater box !! I had it running today trying to figure out the electric fan when it began to smoke out the cowl under the wind shield wipers. Not a burning wire smell but a dried weed smell. I had to stick the garden hose in the cowl to get it to quit smoking ! Anyway my question is if I take the blower motor fan out can I clean out the mouse house or do I need to pull half the dash apart !! I had the heater going full blast when this all happened.........do you think the heater core would get hot enough to burn a nest or are they eating wires !!!!!!!!!!!

 

oh yea when i bought a new starter i had it installed in 10 mins
i had gotten one from a girl at work that came off her husbands xj
didnt pay attention to the threading my burnt one had a helicoil in it and this one didnt so after 2 hours i took it out and tried to see why it wouldnt go (blonde moment) it pulled right back out no threads but since i had already converted the connector to the pre 98 o ring i just bought a new starter for 60$ gave them the burnt one and now i have the one i got from that girl as a back up just need to get a helicoil for it

 

See this is were i am confused cause i just went through most of my grounds last week when i had a turning signal fault , this was before this problem occurred. i am checking over grounds again just to be sure .

Im sure its not a good thing but the last few times. Ive tried cranking it over i have had smoke cone out of the intake ??

 

you find it funny because you don't know much about oil, or the 4.0...obviously.

 

Has anyone had a bad shift solenoid? Getting a P0700 trans control malfunc and P0753 shift solenoid A circuit electrical. Maybe my solenoid is stuck? Feels like I have no second. Replaced my tranny filter on monday.. yesterday and this morning drove fine.. got gas.. now these codes. Any ideas would be great. 98 xj Sport 4.0 4x4

 

Alright it quit raining.... Still not 100% positive what rear axle I have. In the pictures iv pulled off line the Dana 35 and Chrysler 8.25 aren't always the same or they're too similar to tell.... Here's a picture of mine

Hey guys, quick question on a spur of the moment decision... my t-case blew up, so before putting the new one in, i figured why not add an SYE.. so my question is... does anybody have experience with the Alloy USA SYE? If so, would you recommend it.. and you use a stock xj shaft right? I remember hearing someone say they used a zj shaft for some reason.. which would work better and be beefier? Last question.. would it be better to try to save up the money for the Adam's Driveshaft and Offroad SYE kit with their driveshaft or would I be just as well off to get the Alloy USA one and just get one of their driveshafts later on? Thanks for the help, and sorry for the big block of text!

 

First, wait for someone to confirm this cause I don't have personal experience with SYEs:
My understanding is that they're all pretty much the same within the standard price range. A front auto XJ shaft is used in the rear. I think the ZJ shaft is 2" longer for higher lifts. I'm not positive of this information, though.

 

Thanks.. Yeah it has a 10 year warranty for $200 so it can't be too bad. I have always heard the front shaft from xj.. but what would be classified as a higher lift for the zj shaft? I'm sitting around 4.5-5"

 

Use the zj shaft I believe and the main part of tyre sye is the shaft. Does it compare to, lets say RR etc. have you tried googling reviews
