Tried to install tranny mount

Can’t get my cross member back on. The four bolts under the new mount aren’t going back in the holes on the cross member.

I know I ordered the right part.

Comanche got an oil change, and a diff fluid change. Thinking the fuel pump is about to go out. Can hear it running 3 car lengths away or more, and it almost died when I tried to start from a stop today, and yesterday it was lurching trying to go up to the mountains. Need to put a gauge back on it and see if it's still putting out the right pressures.

Had my girlfriend drive my Cherokee back to school so I could have both here and work on one and drive the other.

In the bottom shot yes. Came on upper end XJ's and Jeep Liberty's. I just bought some myself. See Post #87239 on the previous page.

Got some j-hook wiper arms from the junkyard this morning and put them on. Blue felpro valve cover gasket, oil change, plugs, wires, cap and rotor. Oil filter adapter o-rings, and a new oil pressure sensor.

I have the fluids for the diffs and the transfer case. But I still need to get trans fluid and a coolant temp sensor. I also got a center console cover I need to repair and install. Prob do all that on tues.
