'88 Grand Wagon frame rusted by Mark Corbelli
Sad story... My beloved '88 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, my trusted friend for the last 18 years, apparently has a terminal case of frame rust that won't pass inspection. In the past, my mechanic has fixed this by welding in patches but he now says that the frame has to be replaced, it's so bad it...

'88 Grand Wagoneer Tranny (727) Purge? How to? by ULB
My Dad has an 88 grand wagoneer with an auto 727 tranny. He just discovered the previous owner put in ATF4 in the darn thing instead of the Dexron. How does one purge the fluid out (easily)? He can of course drop the pan, but that will probably only exchange 1/4 of the fluid. Is there a way to...

'88 Jeep Comanchee - Replacing tie rod vs connector rod by Clint
Something in my steering is allowing more play than it should when turning the wheel, and this morning, when turning into a parking lot, I noticed a small "clunk" as I turned the wheel hard left to hard right. I suspect it's either the tie rod or the connecting rod that needs to be replaced;...

'88 Wagoneer rear suspension by mike92105
My XJ Wagoneer Limited hsa leaf suspension in the rear, the leafs are pretty flat, is this normal? The reason I was wondering is that when I tow my boat, tongue weight around 150-200 lbs, the wheel fenders are less than an inch from the tire. What can I do to beef up the suspension in the...

'88 Wrangler needs new 4.2L engine... by Josh[_2_]
I need to replace the 4.2L engine in my '88 wrangler and I was wondering if I could drop in an older 4.2L engine. I found a '78 4.2L, but I don't think they're interchangable. Does anyone have personal experience with this, or any advice? Thanks, Josh

'88 YJ sputtering question by rjmax
I have a '88 YJ with the 4.2 liter inline 6. The engine does have quite a few miles on it but seems to do alright. The question I have is why would it hesitate and sputter at low rpm's when I load the engine? For example, when starting out from a stop? The Carter BBD I rebuilt not long ago and...

'89 4.0L VERY high idle problem by scmadhatter
I have recently acquired an 89 Jeep Cherokee with an inline 6 cyl which is fuel injected. It quite suddenly developed a dangerous problem with the idle speed. At idle it sits at anywhere between 2300 to 3300 rpm so you almost have to have 2 feet on the brakes at a stop sign. When I pull...

'89 Cherokee Throttle Linkage by DACMAN
I have an '89 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer that I am bringing back to life. The throttle was sticking and remaining open any time I would start it and give it any gas. Initially, I tried to fix the problem by spraying WD40 on mechanical moving parts that would affect the throttle. When I purchased this...

'89 Jeep Wrangler won't start by [email protected]
Hi, I recently came into posession of an '89 Jeep Wrangler, 2.5L, 4 cyl. It sat untouched for almost 8 years and now it won't start. I've changed the battery, plugs, distributor cap and cables, air and oil filters and the ignition coil. When I try to start the vehicle it cranks nicely but I...

'89 YJ - Source for OEM leaf springs by Joe C
One of my rear leaf springs cracked and I'm looking for replacement. Standard ones should be easy to find, No? I'm in the Long Island, NY region. Local spring shop wanted $500 for the pair installed. Ughhh!!! Thanks, Joe

'89 YJ 4.2 fuel pump leaking oil? by Joe C
I've had fuel pumps on other cars go on me, but this is the first time I saw one leak oil. Not around the gasket either! Usually they fail when they just can't get the fuel up to the carb. I guess after 17 years I can't complain. Joe

'89 YJ engine by Carlo
I think the time to make a decision has come. My son's YJ has a rather loud ticking noise coming from the top end. Without even attempting any diagnostics, I am figuring burned valve, bad lifter, flat cam lobe, or something similar. I was thinking about R/R the head (if the problem turns out to be...

'89 yj tranny mount by Joe C[_3_]
While topping off my transfer case on my '89 YJ I noticed side to side movement of the case. I suspect the tranny mount is shot. Should there be any movement of the transfer case at all ? How much of a job would it be to replace this mount ? I checked the front motor mounts and they look...

'90 Grand Wagoneer - Oil Pressure Sensor Location? by KCG
1990 Grand Wagoneer: The Oil Pressure Indicator on the dash gauges has been stuck at the top (80) for quite awhile now. (Consistently reads 80 whether stone cold or warmed up - - and the needle never moves). I suspect it's due to a faulty (failed or disconnected) oil pressure sensor - - but I...

'91 Wrangler, Fuel odor while driving by [email protected]
Hey all, I have a '91 Wrangler I-6 4.0 and I've been smelling fuel vapors as of late. After I'm driving I inspect the undercarriage to see if I can find the source, but I'm unable to. The odor is strongest in the rear driver's side wheel well, and there seems to be a liquid leak in that vicinity,...

'91' XJ: Coolant smell on startup by FragSinatra
I get a distinct odor of coolant whenever I startup my '91' XJ. I haven't noticed any leaking coolant anywhere (there are no puddles of coolant). It looks like there may be leakage from the thermostat area because there are some deposits there. Whatever it is, it's a slow leak, I just hope it's...

'91' XJ: disconnecting fan relay a good idea? by Doug
I've got problems w/the anti-theft BS in my Cherokeet. It's throwing false alarms. It's funny how it only goes off at 3:00 a.m. So far I haven't caught anyone breaking into the vehicle (which is parked in the street). My neighbors won't put up with it much longer so I'm going to yank the...

'91' XJ: fluctuating idle when at stop, in gear by Doug
The idle in my '91' XJ has been fluctuating by 500 RPM when I'm stopped in gear (auto trans). If I put the truck in neutral the idle fluctuation disappears. The auto-trans shifts fine and I recently (within the last year) refilled the auto trans fluid 4 times (to get out as much of the old fluid as...

'91' XJ: power seat pedestals, same right & left? by Doug
Does anyone know if power seat (incl. all motors, mounts, electricals) pedestals for XJ's are, in general, the same regardless of whether it's on the left or right side (i.e. passenger or driver side)? -- there is no .sig
