84000 not to be a smart ass but have you tried a jeep dealership? even if they dont have instuctions spend some time sitting in a 2000 model while their still around. My information indicates that nothing has changed in the soft tops in the last few years. If you have the parts that you need...

119000 WOULDN'T IT JUST BE EASIER TO PUT A CAT ON IT? ALL THE HASSLE YOUR GONNA GO THROUGH TO PROVE WHERE IT WAS MADE. IN THE END THE ONLY ONE YOUR ACTUALLY HURTING IS YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTOR WAS PUT THERE TO TRY AND "CLEAN" THE EXHAUST OF NOx. BY EITHER BYPASSING...

120000 TREAD LIGHTLY HAS A WHOLE NEW MEANING.

126000 CHECK CJ-8.COM for the home page of a guy named ROKhugrJefe. You may have to read thru some of the old messages (discusion forums) to find his link to his home page. His Jeep is set up that way and he says it works great. guy has like 35 years of experience

248000 With 32s you're probably going to be on the verge of wanting to re-gear, but you'll probably be okay since the 4 bangers generally have lower gears in the diffs... a friend of mine put on 33s and 5th gear is now totally useless, with 32s it shouldnt be too bad though.

263000 That's one reason I never put them in, I couldn't find any clear directions. I bought the springs, pulled the distributor, but couldn't find where to put them. If you do manage to get this working, send me some photos please! Terry

267000 I havent had this with my jeep, but have experienced it with other vehicles, you may want to check your clutch pedal return stop (bolt/screw at top of pedal similar, to steering stops)

279000 they did, thanks Terry /jens

296000 Just did the nutter bypass myself today on my 89 4.2l six. Worked great! I routed my vacuum line to the passenger side of the carb about half way up.

308000 Hey Guys, Think about it! Inside the rubber bushings are steel sleeves. If they are put together correctly you will not be able to smash the rubber bushings. So tighten them up! They are half inch bolts and you sure do not want one comming loose. Mine are tightened to 60 foot...

311000 The Nutter bypass is for taking the computer out of the wiring "loop" of the ignition module. The link to the site for info is http://www.off-road.com/jeep/jnutter1.htm I'm not real sure on the model years it works for but I've read guys comments from working on pre-fuel injection...

320000 Where can I find a set of AAL's? I've been having a hard time finding a place that will sell me just them, not a set with shocks and other crap like that. Is there any other necessary hardware the goes with the AAL's? Thanks-Matt

331000 I have a 98' Wrangler with a 4in suspension with 33" tires. 4.0/auto trans. I get on the average 13mpg. I added a Jacobs pro street ignition system , k&n filter, and a street performance helix plate. check your gears, unless you ordered the 3.73, you probbly have a 3.08, which is the...

419000 make sure you get a good transmission - be a bit scared of t-4 or t-5, both light duty transmissions. see if the person you are buying from has service records, w/ good service the 258 has been known to run 200k miles. cj's take a lot of money and eat gas, but shi*, its a Jeep!!!!

438000 From my experience, backfire is either timing, too lean or in some weird instances a bad intake valve, as in not seating properly. I'd suggest a go over. Check your hoses for air leaks which can lean out your mixture. Recheck your timing. Compression test may help with the valve...
