    4WD in reverse on incline

    Nagging question. This past winter I was in deep snow on friends driveway that has a steep decline. I was backing up the driveway in 4 Low, but was not engaging the front wheels for some reason. I turned around and went up the driveway forward and the front wheels were engaging fine when moving...

    258 block w/ 86 head

    Call a machine shop and ask a pro! They have spec books that will tell you how much you can bore out holes before having a problem.

    sputtering under acceleration

    Check your fuel pump. The manual pump on the 258 is cheap. $30 something at Kragen. I had the same issue with my 88 YJ with the 258. I replaced the fuel pump and it solved my problem.

    Need some pricing input for e-bay sale...

    Do a search for the parts that you have to see what everyone is getting. I like the Buy It Now feature, because I hate the bidding process. If you ask a reasonable price you can move these in a day rather than wait a week. Start the bid at $1 and add a Buy It Now feature. For shipping, look for...

    Bucking Bronco in 1st

    If the engine idles with no surge on the RPMs, then I would look towards a slipping clutch. Is this a manual or hydraulic clutch? If hydraulic, check the fluid first. If manual, you have a problem with the pressure plate most likely. That means a clutch job.

    YJ Power Fading Away

    Change the cap, rotor and wires first. Change the plugs and look for fouling of the old plugs. Use the platinum Autolites that have either two or four anodes for max power. As far as the gas, see if you smell gas as you are reving the engine. Your are probably running too rich on your fuel...

    Inspired by Sparky

    The most the belt would do is damage the belt. I would not consider that to be any relation to the problem. Have you rebuilt and adjusted carbs before? My guess is that your mixture is not quite right. Do you smell gas from the tailpipe?

    Rear

    If you want strong, see a local welding shop and they can build you a good strong bumper out of U beam steel. Guaranteed not to bend not matter what is pulling you out. My rear bumper is a welding shop custom. Extremely strong. Just a thought.

    Speaker help!!

    I changed mine when I bought my 88. I put Sony speaker in from Walmart. Get the red ones. I forget the model name, but they are very good speakers. I placed matching rear 6x9s in custom speaker boxes that fit in front of the wheel well. I like these better than the sound bar, and the wiring can...

    Can't reverse my '89 Wrangler

    I solved my problem. The stick was not engaging all the way into reverse. When I pulled the boot off the shifter, there was a wiring harness and a hose that was in the way. Also I noticed when I put the boot back on, I had to redrill the holes to mount it to allow for proper clearance to the...

    Gear Ratios

    I am running a 4.2L w/ 5spd trans. I have not adjusted the speedometer. I was in 4th gear when I took the tach reading. Even if the speedometer is off slightly, I was nearing 4000RPM while going 60. That still does not sound right. I think I will take the advise of Bouty Hunter and pull the diff...

    Road Armor Matrix Bumper

    Looks like a Hummer wannabe. Go traditional. It will save you a few bucks for sure! It'll probably be stronger to. Remember, the proverb of the deer that was proud of his antlers, but hated his skinny legs? Its the performance that matters.

    Carb Swap Question

    Have you heard of a HOLLEY #8007 390 CFM 4-BBL. CARBURETOR conversion kit? It comes with the intake manifold and a 4bbl carb that is supposed to replace the Carter BBD. I have been thinking about making the leap, but am hesitant. Know anyone who has made the conversion from 2bbl to 4bbl? What...

    Clicking exhaust valve

    Pull the head and take to a machine shop. Replacing/reseating valves is about as boring as it gets and you will never get it quite right if you haven't done it before. Best of all the machine shop will look at all of your valve at the same time and recommend which ones to replace. Shouldnt be...

    CJ7 starting problem. Electrical it would seem.

    There should be a starter relay that closes when you turn the key and the gauges come alive. When you turn the key to the starter position, the closed relay allows voltage to be delivered along the blue wire to close another set of points in the solenoid. This connects the hot side (12V from...

    Gear Ratios

    I was looking at the gear ratio forum to find out what gearing I should have in my 88 YJ. According to the chart there, I can figure out the gear ration by tire size and RPM at 65 MPH. I tested that out this evening. I am turning 33" tires at 4000 RPM to get 65MPH. That places me off the chart...

    Can't reverse my '89 Wrangler

    I'm having the same problem with the reverse. I have the Puegeot 5-Speed transmission. I have been looking around the internet for solutions. I have found alot of places indicating that this is a common problem with that transmission, but no solutions. My 88 YJ has a lift kit installed years...
