Welp, the new ZJ has putted around for a few days without a hiccup. GF says the pulsation has subsided so I'll check that out later today. The headliner is toast so we might hit the JY today and look for a good one and look for tow hooks as well. In advance of the headliner being out we might run backup camera & power wires for a overhead console mounted video monitor. A forum member has these ZJ hooks for sale that look slightly tweaked. Think they can be straightened out on 20 ton press and maybe a little massaging with anvil & sledge hammer?

Are you there right now? Is there a white 97 XJ in pretty much perfect shape? I want it's trailer hitch but I couldn't get it off last time due to a lack of breaker bar.

Faulty new cps...maybe?

What's the cost down there? West Palm has a bunch of Cherokees and their axles are pretty cheap $109 with a $20 core charge. You might find a 8.25" 29 spline up there instead of the 35 at the same cost.

While it's running good wiggle, pull, twist the connectors and see if it dies. If it does die, it's the connection not the sensor. Plugging and unplugging does not reset the sensor, which has falsely been published regarding this issue.

Depends on whose running the parts prices up front pretty much determines the cost for any part wether to raise the part or not

Looks like I'll be doing some road trips I just hope it's worth it though...a while ago I went to upull and didn't see not one jeep...
Super slim pickings there....
I know the dana 35 is not the ideal axle but it's easier to find a 4.10 one than a 8.25

WPB had three white Laredos identical to GF's ZJ. Bunches of XJ's too. When we go next I'll let you know what they got
