    1996 differences questions

    yeah why are you looking at wrangler stuff? you're a cherokee... 91 was the first year of the 4.0 high output motors which included a higher-compression cylinder head. as for getting more power, start with the simple bolt-ons - intake, header, exhaust, oversize throttle body... with those 4...

    1996 differences questions

    well now you're talking about wranglers... wranglers xx-95 are YJ's, they didn't produce any in '96 (just sold 95's i presume), and then the TJ's started in '97. cherokees are a whole different animal.

    i'm all for building it yourself... i think the saying is "real jeeps are built, not bought"

    lifts

    i don't think there is one. some lifts are "bolt ons", as in you don't need to weld, drill, or significantly modify your rig to install them. normally these kits just include springs, shocks, control arms, etc... kits that include a completely modified suspension (the whole geometry of the...

    anti-freeze leak

    yeah, you're already saving money by installing it yourself, i'd go for the new one too, that way you're sure you only have to do it once.

    anti-freeze leak

    yup shouldn't be that bad, drain the coolant (i'd just disconnect the lower rad hose) and unbolt the thing. make sure u get a new gasket and see that the old one is completely cleaned off...

    roughh turn off

    running rich like that could theoretically clog your catalytic converter, overheat your spark plugs, foul them, stall out, not start.... it sounds like you need to have your carb removed, cleaned, and reinstalled...

    99 Wj metal bumpers

    i'd go for the ARB, if you have the money... they're bombproof. they weigh a TON tho, so be careful. might want to look into stiffer springs to retain stock ride height...

    roughh turn off

    ahhh they call that "dieseling" From Wikipedia: A carburetor that does not close entirely can contribute to running once the engine is off, for the extra fuel and oxygen mixture can combust easily in the warm piston chamber. Similarly, hot vaporized oil gases from the engine crankcase and...

    I've got a chance

    as long as the frame is solid, just swap out that rusty body for fiberglass (or just repair it, whatever floats your boat) just realize that "rust" is synonymous with "huge project"

    new trany for 91 cherokee

    well with the standard conversion, you'd need a new pedal assembly, another hole in the firewall, clutch master & slave cylinders, and obviously the new transmission itself. its quite a conversion and most people agree that its more worthwhile to just find a jeep with the manual transmission in...
