For a 4.0 6 cyl I went with the local auto supply. The all come from LKQ in the metroplex, usually same or next day. You might try that if you’re in a hurry. I’m not sure about the availability of a 2.4 though or the $$. Good luck.

From my experience, it turns out that when you change the suspension geometry, unpleasant things happen. I got rid of the 4” spring lift and replaced with almost stock, put on new 31” tires, and bingo! Now it drives well even at 70. That is, when I’m brave enough to go that fast.

I’m not sure if this will help, but I occasionally have the same issue with our ‘95, but only when the speedometer goes “wonky”. Not sure if your ‘92 has electric or mechanical speedo. If electric you might look at the wiring at the tranny. A little wiggle of the wiring on ours usually fixes the...

85 mph in Dallas is what they run on residential streets!

I occasionally have the same issue on a ‘95 4.0. My problem is with the speedometer and related wiring at the transmission. I’m just too busy to crawl under to fix it. My speedometer goes crazy every now and then. When depressing the clutch while coming to a stop, the engine stalls or almost...

I put my trac bars, both front and rear, in my “Pile of Things I don’t think I need” and haven’t had any issues either on or off road for 2 years now. My $.02.

Jeez man! Learn to use proper punctuation!

I understand that. Here’s a picture of the switch. There is a nut, bracket, net configuration that allows for adjustment.

It’s been a while, but I don’t remember seeing a spring on the pedal. But I’m getting old and forget some times. If it was a switch problem, lifting the pedal wouldn’t turn the brake lights off. I agree with what you said about the mechanic. He probably installed a slightly different master...

I had a similar issue on my 95 4.0/AX15. It turned out to be a loose nut on the brake light switch. The switch mounts through a bracket with a hole in it and adjusts there. The switch closes when you push the brake peddle down and opens when depressed by the brake pedal arm. Since this happened...

I ordered and installed a set of 1 1/2 inch lift near OEM springs. I found that the pins in the rear spring packs barely made it through the door stop size shims that the PO installed. The rear end had been slipping back and forth on the springs. That explains the popping and bumping around we...

Here in Texas also. My converter was replaced with a piece of pipe by the previous owner. It smells different when running. Kinda like my old K5 Blazer did!

It’s running LT tires now on aluminum rims with Jeep logos on the center cap. I have a set of 31X10.5-15 tires on steel wheels that were on it when we got it. Those tires are old and won’t be used. But I liked the 31’s. They’re about an inch taller than what’s on there now and drive well except...

Not too big. We don’t need a crawler. Probably a $3-$4K budget. Doing the work myself with the assistance of a certified mechanic at his shop. Or should I say, I’ll be assisting him. We barter all the mechanic work, so free shop time and help.

We took the 1995 YJ, 6 cyl. 5 spd, out this weekend for the first time on the trails of Barnwell Mountain and managed to break the left rear spring at the rear shackle. After looking at the broken spring my wife said “We need to make it bigger and badder!”. What can I say to that other than the...
