Sounds to me bad ground(s). Hot wires, dimming lights and notoriously bad grounds on jeeps. Dirty headlight plugs, grounds there. The dash cluster is also grounded. You can also add grounds anywhere, never hurts. Just make sure you go to clean metal where they are landed.

If you just have to have PLEASE look inside the frame holes in back and front. As the guys said they can rust from inside out bad. Id pop that air filter off if you could and see how much dirt is inside that intake tube due to what I believe is a Spectre gauze filter. Otherwise It looks pretty...

Hope you didnt wrestle to hard on the shifter s you could bend a shift fork. Doesn't sound right that even stopped not running it would not come out of 5th. Running I can understand if the TB was not working or the PP springs/fingers/parts were broke. With the trans out you should be able to...

You didnt say what year your jeep is, however what you have is the early style internal slave cylinder. No fork, just that hydraulic throw out bearing which is the part with the 2 lines and the bellow around it. Buy a Luc kit off Rockauto and be done with it. Typically new slaves come with new...

Id start with bad battery connections or cables. Cables can look OK but internally their shot and full of corrosion.

I wouldent pay but $4500 for it. 4 banger,no top, theres and other $600 or so. Looks like a Spectre rock filter for an air filter. Id lay odds the dealer gave about $2500 in trade in on it.

How big is your bank account and do it have rust?

Pretty much a pull/push process. If its stuck time to open up the steering column and fix it.

Hats off to ya as we both play with fire and thank you for your service (y)

What's gear ratio does your YJ have now?

Dang man, thats crazy overkill IMO. MFG'ers put that kind of maint schedule in the manual hoping your a dummy and take it to the dealer for a $300 a year major lube service. You doing a lot of water crossings and getting intrusion?

How often you changing lubes? If your worried about wasting money on a vehicle Id say off the jeep and buy a toyota. ;)

Summit racing and Jegs both sell 2 or 3 brands of GL4 manual trans specific gear oils and last time I bought quarts they were $10.99 each IIRC.

Id say no being RP says its a replacement for a trans that use ATF. If your gonna use 80/90 lube make sure its GL4 rated not the MT1 lubes the likes of autozone sells. I ran both 80/90 in my 91's ax5 and 10/30 synthetic and Id use nothing else but the 10/30 which jeep now recommends. If you live...

One of the down sides of early YJ's, as well as many other vehicles, is the slave was installed inside the bell housing. Unless your was changed you wont see the slave, only that stub sticking out the hole in the B/H. The YJ was changed to external slave in 94 IIRC. There is a way to put your on...

That is the bleeder for the slave and yes you can move it around. The line hanging off it is not stock as IIRC it had what looks like a brake cylinder bleed valve at the tip only.

Are you losing fluid? is the pedal spongy? is your Yj a 4 banger with the AX5 which are not particularly a durable trans and if you do the clutch slave/master remember the slave is inside the trans so you'd do the clutch/slave and master all at once.

Hi zoot super $$ plugs? General consensus is the high dollar super cubic zerkonium plugs dont work well in jeeps. Everyone swears by plain old Champs. If not like the guys said a now damaged wire, or is it a obvious one cylinder miss at idle that fades away at high RPM. Its not that hard to...

A rev limiter will do just that, cut off the engine at the set RPM. Ive never had a limiter literally shut down the engine to where it had to be restarted.
