Thanks for the info from greg92jeepxj, I found a replacement online and it should arrive at my house today, I hope. Gonna try and get it all back together this weekend. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again Jody

Having trouble locating a new "Front Bearing Cap". Anybody got any suggestions?

Well, I figured out my problem. After dropping the transmission I found that one of the clips that holds the throw-out bearing on the fork had broken off and had cause something to spin and rub a hole completely through the front bearing cap where the shaft comes through it. Found one online...

I've got an 86 CJ and I am having problems with my clutch fork. With the engine off it will shift through the gears fine but not with the engine running. My fork will not stay on the throw out bearing. I slid the boot off and I can see the inner spring with an inspection mirror and feel it with...

If anyone can tell me how to wire up a simple toggle switch ignition I would really really appreciate it. At this point I don't care if the radio and other things have power or not I just to need to be able to crank it and drive. This is my only way to work and back and I have to get it running...

Well, I found the replacement part but I have spent the better part of two days trying to get these pivot pins out of the steering column. Got one out but broke a screw off in the other one, I was using an "ease out" to remove the broken screw and it broke off inside the pin also. I have tried...

This is a picture of the entire broken piece. I need to know the name of this part so I can try to find a replacement. Thanks

I was trying to remove the shroud that's around the column and this broken part fell out. I'm guessing that this is my problem. Can I find this part and how difficult will it be to install?

Yeah, I was hoping maybe it was some kind of linkage problem or spring but I had no idea what to look for or how it worked. Your last post is gonna help me tremendously. I'm gonna go check it right now. Thanks so much.

Yes, I think so. Do you know how to wire a push button start or can you tell me wire to find that info? Thanks

I was cranking my jeep and something broke causing my key to turn freely forwards and backwards and will not turn the motor over. I thought it was just a matter of replacing the keyed cylinder but now I think maybe it's something to do with the mechanism that causes your key to disengage the...

Yes, I have had wet okole and if you can afford them they are definitely the best out there. You mentioned that you had your tub rhinoed. Did you do it yourself or have it done professionally?

Where would I get the things I need to monitor the vacuum?

I recently bought a set from Bestop and I love em. They seem to be completely waterproof, got caught in the rain at Lowes the other day and with one wipe they were completely dry.

Thanks, those are exactly the kind of things I was wanting to find out. If the 304 is set up to work with the 2 barrel then maybe I would be better off trying to get this one adjusted right. It seems to run rich and I can smell gas sometimes like its flooded. It also can be hard to crank if I...

Moving on to the next project now. I have a Holley 4 barrel carb I want to install but I don't have a whole lot of experience with carb installation or adjustment. I'm running a motorcraft carb now but I don't think the choke has ever worked quite right. If anyone could tell me what I'm in for...

Sorry, I traded what was left of it for payment to the guy who swapped the motors for me. The body was pretty much completely shot. The chassis was pretty much all that was left.

Ok, got it fixed. Thanks so much for the help and the link to the website. The wiring diagram I got from autorewire was exactly what I needed. My jeep is running and charging like a top now. Thanks again. Jody

Ok, I'm fixing to head home from work now and I'll try that when I get home. Thanks

Yes, I cut the plastic clip off and crimped a loop terminal on each wire. I put the one wire on the other insulated terminal on the alternator and I put the other wire on what I'm pretty sure is a ground terminal on the alternator. Do I need to unhook the ground wire?
