Gidday Low Profile,
I've decided to fabricate a bracket myself thanks...I live in a small city called New Plymouth , in the province of Taranaki, in New Zealand. So I think we're a little way from each other unless your Jeep has the unique advantage of being amphibious! ha ha !
Cheers

question: My 1996 jeep Cherokee is having an issue with overheating. the kicker it only happens at idle, usually after 2 mins or so, red light, traffic or just sitting in driveway, otherwise doesn't over heat. im thinking water pump or thermo, any ideas ? jeep had 130,000 original miles and i believe thermo has been re placed before, cant remember about water pump. thanks in advance.

This is what I get when I tested my jeep with the carMD. It's still problematic. My jeep will start right off at times other times it takes three hours to start. I still can't figure it out. I get spark so that's not the problem and I have zero fuel problems as well. It will turn over all day long, but it will only start when it wants to. I just changed the ignition coil and it did not help.

Oil pressure question - started my 94 xj up oil pressure was just over 40 usualy just above 20 at idle.
When applying throttle oil pressure stays the same just above 40 where it normally is when applying throttle
Anyone have any ideas
