sounds like you need to go to the yard and pull a 4.0 harness / PCM.


remove all wire from the buggy.  all of it.  get new ignition and disconnect switches and the heave gage wire.   

start over and keep it simple.

Is the 4.0 in it even worth saving? When it was running it sounded like awful. Maybe drop the oil pan and see how much metal is inside it.

it sounded fine when it was happy- probably use some lucas or some valve seals.  was smoking a bit but we had the O2 unplugged also. 

my old boss has a GMC 2500 with a 40k 6.0 in she drove from her dads but then it sad and as brake line issues now, she wants it off her lawn.  truck is pretty NY'd out but said runs great.  ill find out info on it.

So after some light wheeling at Attica. Found front driver wheel to look like this. After some searching found the same wheel centers at Rouge fab and there are supposed to be tabs that reinforce the center in all those slots.

this sweet machine is on the lift

we addressed some drive shaft issues
new double ended ram installed and tie rods shortened up.


needs a front limit strap
needs a rear wheel seal
some bolt checking

and should be good for big dogs!
