Also picked up Pet's old 33's from his TJ thats gone now.  Had to break down them all, clean beads out, new valve stems, and remount to fix leak down issues- but all good now.  little noisy compared to the SCR's that i put 7K miles on but should wear in a bit.  i think he put mostly trail miles on them and im sure they 5-10 years old lol. price was right. 

[mr.mindless]

Seems more reasonable

How did the SCRs wear?

they were new, after 7K there are at 50-60%   some flat spots started to show on the front.  they are completely hand mounted and not balanced at all.  no complaints at 80mph on 90. 


ordered a set of from yukon chromo shafts and this thing will be getting some lockers, skids, sliders, and bumpers soon.  why not. 

[mr.mindless]

I dig it. Should be able to get all of that back out of it upon sale no problem.

probably not but its treated me well enough so far.


havent been able to sell it as a 3K jeep as it is which i think is fair for the work done to it.  Sliders will take care of the last exposed rot. 

i doubt it will magically become a 4500$ jeep but im still only in 1500 ish or less as it sits.

wish i could track down my old bumper!


need to make a steel run soon

[M4wdFab]

new neutral saftey switch installed.  full function (same as old) verified for starting in P and N, no where else.  no backup lights still.  Still gives Trans code and Range sense code. 

bench tested purge solenoid for proper resistance and function.  Verified continuity from purge solenoid plug to ecm pin- ok.  no power on other side of purge plug with ig on or off. 

found fuse missing in kick panel that supports backup lights, purge solenoid, o2 circuits.  put fuse in. 
now have power to purge, backup lights work for first time since owner ship.

multiple code clears, still have same 3 codes for trans malfunction, range select malfunction, purge sol circuit error.

purge solenoid feels like its trying to softly kick, but no where near the bench testing click. 

suspect ECM driver bad. 
no idea on trans codes.

Replaced fuel sending / pump module.  fuel gage works so far. 

[mr.mindless]

could the trans code actually be a t-case code? I've been wondering to myself what the hell a range switch could be in a trans but I'm reasonably sure the transfer case has a switch to tell the PCM high or low range.

just another thought

front end torn down.  hosed gear set found after 1/2 cup of gear oil drained.  bottom of diff looked like anti seize.  awesome. 

Steve mason had a gear set that matched since my parts wall did not provide.

new gears installed, chromo shafts installed, aussie locker installed.


rear next!

update

CEL has been off for a few days on its own, but still has the same 3 codes when you scan it.  what a terrible system.  going to run a tank though it with normal driving and see if the purge code goes away.

all emmisions monitors are set that show available with torque. 

still suspect ECM driver for purge code, and i have no further action to trouble shoot trans codes.

morning long crank issue gone with new sender unit / pump.
