Got it dirt cheap because the Jeep could not move forward or backwards. Dropped the pan and changed the filter and fluid. Was able to move forward, but seems to be stuck in 4WD. It seems the 4wd is trying to disengage but wont. Reverse does not work. I am looking for another tranny but am not sure if there is a simpler fix (less expensive too)!

the whole cab was shaking so i thought that i was overheating but i popped my hood and the entire engine an everything else is shaking violently, than it died. i turned it over and it started just fine but once the rpms went back to normal it started shaking again so i opened the throttle up under the hood and that didnt do anything either and it stalled again so my 1st thought was my timing chain went out. so we towed it to my house and i checked for TDC with the 1st sparkplug removed and the rotor exposed and the timing was perfect. i talked to a few mechanics about it and they said to check my fuel filter and my coil. i checked the coil and it was emmiting an orange spark through through plug cuz i grounded it on the engine. so i got all new plugs and i checked the coil again at night and the whole firewall where it was located lit up with bright blue sparks so i got a whole new coil and this morning its still not firing up.

this is my only way to work and i have to have it fixed by tomorrow night.

any help is GREATLY appreciated... ]]> Cherokee, Commander, Wagoneer and Liberty superspud87 http://www.jeepz.com/forum/cherokee-commander-wagoneer-liberty/27735-87-wagon-problems-again.html http://www.jeepz.com/forum/cherokee-commander-wagoneer-liberty/27735-87-wagon-problems-again.html http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/jeepz/~3/lrLXf4_--pE/27734-door-light-sensor-problem.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:41:21 GMT I've been having a problem with my dome light sensor on a 2005 TJ... in warm weather the door sensors work w/o problem, but as soon as it cools down they never register that my doors are closed & keep the dome light on while i'm driving... has anyone else had this problem or has heard of this happening?

I even have a fancy idea for making the front half of it removable to that I have the open space above me when I'm running without the hardtop on.

I was going to start laying it out and buying metal this weekend and went looking for ideas and I was shocked to find a distinct lack of roof racks! Whats the deal? Am I missing something?

I don't like the idea of loading up the rear end, seems like I lose visibility in a big way. I really just want to get my spare up on the roof, get the cooler and a couple of bags for camping up there so my rear seat doesn't get filled. Is there a reason why this is a bad plan?

If you have a rack, can I see it? :)

I bought mine with it all removed and now need to reinstall it. I'll be taking the opportunity to replace the heater core while I'm at it. I have the under dash portion of the heating system and plan on upgrading the heater motor in the process of this install.

My Jeep has a SBC 350 swapped in, so I have no idea where any of the hoses are supposed to go. Does anybody have a motor shot they could post? If possible, can you label the hoses via edit before you post? This would be extremely helpful. Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to inventory all the parts required now, to see what I have to buy. The winter is quickly upon me here in Wyoming and the wind blows here continuously.

Thanks. ]]> CJ YJ TJ and JK AFGopher http://www.jeepz.com/forum/cj-yj-tj-jk/27732-heater-install.html http://www.jeepz.com/forum/cj-yj-tj-jk/27732-heater-install.html http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/jeepz/~3/vIRVkVtjw08/27731-flomaster-new-offroad-40-a.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 16:43:50 GMT I was just curious if anyone is running this muffler, its alittle more costly but looks like its built tough and will last?? im just curious if it...

It has a few markings:

on the front:
a number 1 with a circle around it and Made in Spain

on the passenger side:
???A3 (not sure what the ? letters are)
M3442

On the rear:
number 27 in a circle

On top:
both of the butterfly valves say 11 (or =) on them

On the bottom:
a date code wheel (02)
11078
both of the butterfly valves say 78o (degrees)

And if I painted it blue:



Or orange:



Or blood red:



Which one do you guys like best? My favorite color is blue so it's an obvious choice for me.
