I have 2 MJs and an xJ that we drive.

And, more than a couple part-outs going on at any given time......

 

I definitely need an MJ

 

Yeah, I really wish I had one right now. It would make my 96 XJ part-out go a little smoother with the trips to the dump and the scrap yard.

 

How do I find out what type of rear axle I have?
I have an 88' Cherokee Limited, with factory tow package.

 

Here in NY, I need special permission to have even one vehicle being parted out.
lol

 

pictures would help.

 

My green one is #16 Comanche for me.

 

You have no idea how jealous I am right now

 

Let me rub it in.

13 Comanches as demos every 7500 miles or so......

 

See there? There are perks to working for "the devil that is Chrysler Corp"

 

So I used a borescope to inspect the number one cylinder on my 4.0.

-the quench chamber/ head gasket area. (I don't know if that's the proper term for it) it's looking crusty yellow. Is that normal?

-the gap around the piston and the cylinder wall is not the same. There's a spot on the piston that got bigger gap than the rest of the piston and that gap have yellow stuff on it.

-the dish on the piston look gray and brown with a spot that look like when you get a sun burn and your skin start peeling off. There's also a line on it. Not sure if that's normal or it's a crack.

-one of the valves look very yellow/white while the other valve look very brown.

-I don't see any visible scoring marks on the wall but I did notice very very faint black line, not sure if that's a scoring mark or just a carbon smear.

 

Yeah I know pics suck

 

I was there when it was AMC.

That was fun. Chryco bought Jeep in 87 but didn't really get their **** hooks into things until 91 or so. It wasn't all bad.

 

Hobo Freight camera?

 

yep
