Doing complete rear brake rebuild, front ball joints, tune up and a quicky on the tranny(converter swap, fluid-filter change and r/r solenoids).
On the brakes aint no thing...
BUT...
I got my solenoids from amazon(good reviews) and they just got numbers on the boxes. the solenoids all look exactly the same. Are they the same and just react different with the electrical going to them? Or???
On the converter swap is there any secrets to making it go smooth with no probs?
Also on the ball joints: not exact ones i ordered from what i see. Omix-ada is the brand i went with, but on the boxes it says for 87-06 wrangler for upper(part # 18037.02) and 99-04 WJ for the lowers(part # 18038.04). First time doing ball joints! Does anyone know if my 87 cherokee uses the same as mentioned??? Do i need to just pull old ones and see if same??? Send back before starting???
Appreciate any help....
