if you put ho fuel pump in a non ho the gauge does that and i imagine the same if you put a non ho tank in a ho rig the guage read the ohms different.

Are you referring to the high output 4.0 litre? If so, it is a ho. I will check the connections and I don't think it would be a bad idea to put the old pump from my previous tank in. Seemed to work pretty good.

Thanks for the help!

No air blowing in truck. Replacing thermostat and blower motor.

New manifold is here, will hopefully install this weekend. Next up is a JCR front winch bumper...

Manifold is in. The old one was haggard, the infamous crack spread all the way around the one tube - no wonder my engine bay was so loud. Very pleased to have a quiet front end for once!

I think I may need to upgrade my trackbar to the double shear from IRO. From what I've read, this may help with the increase in steering play after putting the lift on, not to mention bump steer. I will likely order this week and post once installed.

So for now, we just got about 2 feet of snow in one night, so I'm going to go out and play

Since I'm developing an addiction to playing with me Jeep, a roof rack will be installed shortly. Just need to modify one I scored for a good price to fit.

So, big lift = bigger stands. I went all out.

New brakes pads. Went for some Wagner ThermoQuiets. Seem to work well so far.

Switched out the bumpstops with longer ones from Daystar. And installed some heavier duty coil clips. Sometimes the weekend work is just about the little things...

Also, I don't care what anyone says - coil compressors scare the living hell out of me...

That's all for now - I know it's pretty boring, but there are some great things on the way

Looks as though you coulda got the rotors resurfaced before slapping in the new pads.

I highly recommend the jcr bumper, I couldn't have asked for better fitment

Also, pretty sure I saw that manifold on kijiji as well lol. Almost wanted to buy it, but i decided i wanted a tire carrier more

You raise a good point, I went and bought new rotors it was quicker lol.

JCR bumper will be happening very very soon

I actually saw the same one on Kijiji in Saskatchewan haha, but I scored this one from Alberta just past Llyodminster

Installed a IRO double shear trackbar this weekend, have to say it looks awesome and has certainly improved the handling. Have posted a question here https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f67/ax...ackbar-159476/if you guys wouldn't mind helping me out that would be greatly appreciated.
