Wishing you the best of luck ! Most of all , a better future and benefits for you and family .

A 1973 jeep cj5 . It's currently a project / restoration still awaiting a start date due to funds and time . Hoping for both of those to fall in place soon .

Yes sir , sure has . With these new scattered work hours and unpredictable overtime , I sure could use a secretary to keep up ! Wrenching weather is finally here , now it's time to make $ !

Thank you Dana for choosing jeepz.com for your research feedback ! Welcome and grazie ! I agree that simplicity is key . We like jeeps to be simple and down to earth , user friendly and easy to repair , if at all possible in today's word of technology . What we would like most is to keep the...

The front Dana 30 axle dosen't have the " C " clip at each axle end inside the differential case side gears like the rear axle does. So , no problem there . As long as the axles were pulled out , which I presume , the only thing that makes it tough to pull out the differential case from the...

Sure glad you posted a picture of the front hub assembly of your jeep . the axle in this jeep , from the Range Rover , is completely different from a Dana 30 open knuckle axle . You could not order parts for a traditional jeep Cherokee XJ as we are accustomed to here in the United States . If...

I'm no mechanic either but I believe you guys are on the right track . Although it should not be ruled out , a fuel restriction is less likely than a bad electric fuel pump . It could not hurt to change the fuel filter . But since the filter on this model is integral with the fuel pump which...

Welcome to jeepz.com. have you checked for a blown fuse ? Also , you may have a bad blower motor resistor or bad blower fan switch . A motor , switch or resistor will pull more amps than the fuse is rated for and cause fuse to blow . It's likely the fuse is on the same circuit as a relay that...

Welcome to jeepz.com you mentioned that the neutral safety switch has been changed and that you have to move the shift lever to get it to crank . You'll have to check the adjustment again , it's out and will have to be reset. Give that a try before thinking about swapping out a starter solenoid...

Although I don't truly know the going rate for a shop or dealer to perform the repaair(s) you need , I still think that estimate you've received is somewhere between high and outrageous. i do my own work and that is why because of the inflated costs . I'm sure you know why a shop or dealer...

Also , as Djs jeep posted , the cam sensor will have to be checked as well . Youll want to know if it's receiving 12 volt reference and if a signal feedback is present . Both , the cam and crank sensors have to have 5 volt reference , signal feedback and ground . Without it , the PCM won't...

Be sure there isn't any kind of anti-theft deterrent system ( factory or aftermarket ) of any kind that could be the cause of ignition system cut-off. Usually those systems also prevent crank as well so this may not be the case . Verify that all fuses are good and look for voltage across...

From your description of the fault , it does sound like the starter has an internal short . An amperage draw test would have to be performed but that is a little involved if you don't have proper equipment to perform the test . Not much is needed but I think it's better to confirm that the...

I know the feeling . I'm 10pm - 6am now with 7pm start times straight through to 6am twice a week and anything else that might come my way . Got to save up $$ for the jeep projects .

I'm not that far advanced in automotive electrical but it does sound to me that if in fact the electrons are flowing in reverse , a diode is missing or not working . A diode is used to allow the flow of electrons in one direction only , so it seems SuperJ and RestorationRides are correct . The...
