    Harmonic balancer is not lining up with other bullies after timing chain replacement

    Have you checked the bore opening that goes over the end of the crank? Is it bored as deep as the old one or is there a burr or other imperfection inside?

    If you have the 4 cyl, according to Novak transmission, the ax5 is the only one of the two that will fit because of the bell housings.

    Pilot bearing

    Honestly I think the puller done a pretty good job, it was the inner stainless bearing sleeve that caused all the problem. The puller would tighten up on the lip and then that sleeve would let it slide over it. Once the inner sleeve finally came out the main part pulled just fine. I will never...

    Pilot bearing

    The crank on my 258 had a pilot bearing that had the needle bearings in it. The PO had told me that he couldn’t keep pilot bearings in this thing so went to this one and it didn’t last either. I have a brand new AX15 so this was coming out. I’m in the process of rebuilding the engine anyway...

    95 YJ 2.5 5-speed running rough

    With it running, spray some water with a squirt bottle on the exhaust manifold right next to each cylinder. The dead one should boil off the water much slower than the others.

    Driving 50 mph

    It has Jeep’s battery saving option. Great for the battery, not much for keeping time.

    Driving 50 mph

    Use an Alan wrench in the center of adjustment screw and break the outer nut loose then tighten the inner Alan screw like flyer58 said. But first have someone turn the wheel back and forth while you lay underneath to verify that there is slop in the box.

    Got scammed and need help to rebuild 89 Wrangler YJ base model

    If going the small block Chevy route, I would go with the gm factory 210 hp 350. Used to be called Mr. Goodwrench 350. It’s got enough power and then some for a Wrangler. If using the stock axles you will be limited on how much horse power they will take. My opinion is that will probably be the...

    Suspension lift kit suggestions for a stock 93 YJ?

    If it were me, looking for what you want to achieve, I would at least checkout Metalcloak front and rear fenders. The claim by them is being able to fit 35’s on a un lifted YJ with their fender system. That would keep your stock suspension and a low center of gravity.

    What did you do in the garage / driveway today?

    I always have trouble welding overhead, so lifted the rear of the frame as much as I could. That was better but still set my shirt on fire and blistered my arm.

    What did you do in the garage / driveway today?

    My welder buddy is working out of town for the next several months so decided to weld the rear wheelbase extension bumper on myself. It’s not as pretty as I would like but then it never is. Shouldn’t fall off though.

    89 yj frame repair

    I had to replace the frame on my 89 it was so bad. But yesterday I spent the day welding on a rear bumper that is a Motobuilt YJ wheel base extension bumper. The rear shackles are relocated to the bumper and you use XJ springs and end up with the axle sitting back 6” farther than stock. So you...

    Carburator for Wrangler YJ 2.5 Liter. 4 cylinder

    Unless a previous owner has changed it, I believe what you have there is a throttle body injector unit.

    1991 4.0 manual running rough to wont start

    If it truly wasn’t over heating, why change the parts that you did? When it is running again install a mechanical water temp gauge, at least temporarily. The factory gauges are notorious for being problematic. That doesn’t mean that it can’t be made to work properly if it is faulty. But the...
