This has to do with the 700R4 transmission. I have two potential donors to replace the transmission in my 1988 4.3l C1500 std cab long bed. This is a extra truck/parts chaser no heavy loads or towing and no long term plans to keep. First of all this is a truck I'm in to for about $300 so this...

Thanks

Just recently posted a want ad for a Ford 5.8 ECU. Having a hard time finding a Speed Density 5.8 ECU with manual trans application. Since Pick-n-Pull is having their 50% off sale I figure I'd chance using a computer from an automatic. 1. I've run an OBD1 Jeep 4.0 auto computer with both auto...

I use the TransGo stage 2 in the 727 I have. Kind of a hybrid version that holds 1st and 2nd but allows auto shifting in drive. I still think about going full manual but haven't justified the expense yet. I thought I saw something on the IntardWeb a few years back about being able to modify the...

You could try calling Foam & Fabric on 84th (i think) between Park & Yakima. It's right across the street from the school there. They MAY have it, but a phone call will save a wasted drive.

Any fastner has a finite fatiuge (sp) life. Every loose/tight cycle weakens the bolt, can't help it.

IIRC correctly your pics showed the stock manual master cylinder. I had the same setup before I did a hydroboost swap from an Astro van. I used the booster and MC from the astro, shortened the push rod, a couple of hydraulic lines from the local NAPA. Used a ZJ 4-wheel Disk combo valve and done...

It's been up and running for a couple years now, maybe i just worded wrong. I've run three different transmissions so far (T5, 999, 727) and am thinking of changing again. Biggest reason I used the CPS relocation from Hesco, didn't want to redo a bellhousing everytime I switched trannys. BTW I...

So as far as you can tell just the fouled injectors...not too bad. They always run rough until the PCM has a chance to re-learn. I'm on a CJ only forum where they have some 4.0 swap guru's if you run into problems in the future. I can fo-sho feel your pain with the wiring part here's what mine...

What ended up being the problem with the 4.0 swap? Just curious as I did a 4.0 in my '7 and am always collecting info for reference.

I can check my notebook to see what year i used but i think 90% (if not all) are the same part #. They only cost like $16 each new (once again IIRC) did the swap some time ago and alot of the little details I forget, hence the notebook somewhere in the garage. I do know that everyone who's...

Before you lathe anything try a set of sidekick rotors.

I did disk brakes on the back of my AMC M20 with sidekick rotors and rear calipers from a nissan (forget the application) the "hat" size on the sidekick rotors is a little bigger IIRC. I had no machining or grinding to make them fit. The earliest write up I know of is on pirate but many of the...

Ugh...lucky the whole truck didn't go up in flames. Any idea what caused the melydown in the first place? Any hi-wattage **** like lights or stereos?

Hydroboost!!! :stirpot: :corn:

I think you were talking to the wrong person at NAPA. Not like that ever happens. I went in for some 3/8" soft steel compression sleeves and the guy said I couldn't buy them separate, had to buy the whole fitting. I tried to convince him I get them all the time and he couldn't figure it...

I have three daughters so my only hope is one of them (at least) catches the bug and wants to get into building jeeps & cars. My money's on the middle one, she's only four and loves to help me work on ****. We'll see if that last for any length of time. Nice work Brad, every young builder...

I would think so, usually tubes list a range of sizes they are usable on.

Biggest issue the OP hasn't filled us in on is whether or not it's a factory (e.g. scout, early CJ, waggy) axle that will take off the shelf replacements (OEM or aftermarket) or a custom cut/length axle that needs a custom shaft to go with it. Prices will vary accordingly.

Don't take this the wrong way I'm not trying to be an ass but ditch it and run a motorcraft 2100 w/1.08 venturis. Webbers are fine once they are dialed in but I'm on a CJ only forum as well and alot of guys get fed up with the webber before they get it right. Haveing said all that, did you buy...
