    1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0 Transmission Slipping.

    Saved a 94 4.0 Grand Cherokee from the crusher, it really only has one major problem. The transmission is leaking very badly at the t-case, which I believe is where all the problems started with it being run dry (previous owner). It slips and hunts for a gear, also it will rev past 2500 rpm...

    Ignition system upgrade?

    I was thinks of doing some upgrades to my factory ignition system on my 1998 4.0 TJ as was wonder what you guys have done and what works and what doesn’t. I was thinking of getting an Accel coil (part no. 140021 ) and the nicer 8.8mm plug wires when I do my next tune up in a few days.

    Break Caliper Swap

    I believe I read some where that the front calipers on a Grand Cherokees will fit on a TJ. The reason I'm interested in this is because the Grands Cherokees have a dual piston caliper (if I'm not mistaken) and the TJs only have a single piston. Is there really any benefit to this sort of swap if...

    Fuel injector upgrade?

    I heard that the 4.0 TJ responds well to a fuel injector upgrade, is this true? What is involved in this upgrade (part number, lbs / hr, spray pattern, engine mods, fuel pressure, emissions & etc...) if this a valid modification? Any light shed on this question would be greatly appreciated...

I can also feel a vibration /grinding through the steering wheel at about 60 mph, it becomes very apparent when I turn the wheel to the left when changing lanes, I'm pretty sure its my front driver side hub / unit...

    Junk yard alternator upgrade?

    So after driving my 98 4.0 TJ with the factory alternator for over 175,000 miles my accessories are starting to act a little funny. And my guage on the dash dips up and down with my engine rpm.
