    Go though the harness and try and find a 12v switched wire. You may need to pull the radio to get to its wiring. Also make sure while there that you have a good ground.

    looking for a brake expert

    Engine stalling

    You can turn the ignition key on three times without starting the engine to bring up codes on the odometer. So you would turn on, off, on, off, then back on at that time if there are any codes they will display on the odo. Thats were you should start and then go from there.

    I believe going with the dana 44 from a 74-75 CJ will be a direct bolt in. You will have one piece axles as well. I had on in my old 74.

    You can also use a rear dana 44 from a 74-75 CJ. They had one piece shafts.

    Yes it is. This is the diagram I made up for the use of the A/C system. It's been in there for a year now with zero issues. Maybe you can use this to help with your installation.
