So my alternator is going Capooey and i was just curious if it is worth upgrading to a higher amperage alternator or if i should just replace it with a factory 90 amp one?

 

You could do a Zj alt swap.

Is it a direct swap? I need a new alt but want more amps than the stock 90 I'd check out the link but my tele wont let me, I have a 95 4.0ho

 

Some grinding involved

 

What you gotta grind? Sry just tryim to figure it out asap so I can get the Jeep back goin

 

this is the number you need to look for

 

im having some trouble with the throw in my clutch. has anyone ran into this problem and have any good recomendations other than just adjust the pin?

 

is it not catching till right at the top? You may have a clutch plate that's on it's last legs

 

Thanks bud appreciate it!

 

the clutch is brand new it has less then 200 miles on it we cant seem to get it to completely engage and disengage so we move the pedal forward and it solved the problem until yesterday when the slave cylinder blew out. im looking for a solution at the pedal because the clutch pressure plate fly wheel master cylinder and slave cylinder are all new

 

My 1997 jeep cherokee had an engine swap before i purchased it, If i am correct seeing the 6 injectors on the top would make it the H.O. strait 6 Right??

 

So while I was out of town for work, my wife and son bought a '93 XJ. Luckily they only paid $500 for it. But it's a complete POS! The only salvageable things about it are the motor and trans. I found a '86 with a bad motor that I can pick up cheap. It currently has a 4 cyl & 4 spd manual trans. Can I drop the 4.0 L and auto trans from the '93 into this '86? I can turn a wrench, but after doing some checking I've found that in 1986 Cherokees came with the 4 cyl or a V-6.

 

I wouldn't buy the '86. That's gonna be a headache. You can find a decent XJ for <$1k from a private seller. Hunt Craigslist and look out for local sales. The closer they are in year and options, the easier it will be.

 

If the motor came from a 91+ XJ, it's a HO.

 

Its a tight fit n have to do alottttt of work, like alotttt of work, I just got rid of my 86 due to a blown tranny n picked up my xj for 625$ on cl, some rust but a good deal none the less, get a good shell n pass up anything pre 87 if you want a 4.0
