I really do appreciate it.. Im trying to get it in the garage.. I cant keep my kids cars out of there long enough.. hopefully very very soon.. I ordered a new set of 2.5 springs yesterday to replace my old wore out flat ones and have a new set of 31/1050/ mud tires setting in the corner itching...

Thanks for the reply... I was told it was from an XJ.. I assumed you read the earlier post where we figured out it was from a Dodge. The noise is constant... 4x4 2x4 slow fast turning... don't matter.. I have no idea if its chain noise..but it just sounds like a dry bearing..thats why im here...

You think you could walk me thru the rebuild? Im pretty mechanically inclined... Ive just never tackled this. I tore apart the 231d just to take a look.. theyre pretty straight forward in there design.. I just don't know what has to be changed to make it work. thanks in advance! if its easier u...

thanks for the rely.. ive never rebuilt one but Im sure I could..

Have a quick question for the experienced jeepers here.. I have an 88 YJ automatic with a NP 231 t case that's starting to make some noise. I found a tcase from a friend of a friend he "said" came out of a XJ.. I went today and bought it for 50 bucks. The tag was all covered in grim and dirt I...

And I forgot to update that I got the 4x4 light fixed too.. I had the blue vac line hooked to vacuum and it wasn't supposed to be. Apparently its just a vent or vacuum release of some kind so I stuck a check valve in the end of it and zip tied it up out of the way. Every thing works fine now.

Yeah that's where the timing marks are at.. but my mark on the balancer is almost 180 off from that on the passenger side towards the bottom.. is it possible someone had the dizzy out and put it back in backwards you all think? Could I not pull the dizzy and rotate the engine 180 and drop it...

I turned it enough that it stalled out and quit. then set it back like it was.

Hopefully someone will chime in and give me some advice.. I don't know unless the damper is bad and "slipped" I just don't know. On another note.. I fixed the idle problem.. bad intake gasket. Thanks for yalls help! The Jeep Rides Again!

It does run good as long as I am running down the highway.. but misses badly at idle. I should be more clear about the timing.. I put my finger over the #1 cylinder and felt for the compression stroke and then pulled the dist cap and made sure the rotor was pointing at the #1 post.. and it was...

I have a question for ya if you or anyone sees this.. Im not a master mechanic but Ive drove and worked on junk all my life. So Im no stranger to the wrench... but Ive never encountered this problem before. when I checked the timing today I brought #1 up on compression and checked my rotor...

Thanks for your input man! I did check today if the nutter had been done... it has not. Dist wires are still intact and running right into the firewall where theyre supposed too. Ill have some time thru thanksgiving here to play with it..if I can stay out of the woods deer hunting =) I may have...

thanks for the reply. I went ahead and traded for it..just another toy for the garage.. Its a mess under the hood..vacuum lines are all jacked up.. someone has swapped the carb with the stepper motor for the same carb without one.. almost looks to me like its had a recent engine...

Hi all... I had a quick question for the experienced Jeepers here. I have a guy wanting to trade me a 1988 Jeep wrangler with the 4.2 and its an automatic. I have had a couple jeeps in my younger years..nothing newer than a CJ... Hes wanting to trade me for my 1993 Toyota with the V6. Both...
