I'm installing a new headlight swticht on my 96. Removed the knee blocker, pulled down the switch enough to see the wire harness connector. I pulled pretty hard and tried to see if there clamps, but no success.
How am I supposed to achieve this?
In the picture it's the part right in the middle pointed by the arrow facing down

NewKindOfClown's concern is that while we do that with out 6-7L oil capacity Jeeps all day long the procedure might be different for an engine with half of the oil capacity. One should really be asking Toyota questions on a Toyota forum... their engines are newer than 1964
Dash lights run through a dimmer located in the big headlight switch. Probably a poor connection.
Alrighty. Time to crawl underneath and find what's loose. Might take quite a bit of shaking with your hands.

I'll ask a quick one... anyone know the thread counts for a dana 35 u-bolt? I just need to know what nut to get to bolt onto the existing threads.

Factory U bolts? Why don't you just buy a new set? Those things are supposed to be reused 0-1 times

my 2001 jeep sport Cherokee has and idling problem. everything is stock on the car and it only happens when to engine is warmed up to the normal 210 on the gauge then it starts to choke out, jump and almost stall when I don't rev the engine what could it be? its really aggravating.
it runs fine once I start driving it around.

Yeah they are the factory U-bolts for my 91 with the 35. I know they shouldn't be reused and I won't when I get new leaf springs one day. I havent taken them off... I just need to know what thread they are so I can get a nut to go on top of the existing nut. I have a bracket for my softline (disc) that I drilled to fit over the remaining ubolt thread. I need to bolt it down, which just needs a nut.
