Much chagrined - I assumed because when I parked her she had spark - that she still did. Not true - as I discovered going back through the...
Noticed coming home last weekend that the Jeep was missing a little. Got home. Put het in the garage, and this weekend she will not start. It...
Thanks All. Grease is a no no. I think I will run some 140 wt. oil for a while and see how it holds up. Cold is not an issue here.
I have a slow leak in my Ross steering gear box. However, I do not want to pull it until I have a new sector shaft on hand to install while I...
That turned out really nice. it's inspiring... :)
Just put a new radiator in mine. There are two radiator widths for V6 early CJs. One is several inches wider than the other ( I want to say 22"...
Knocking on wood - she's back on the road and seems none the worse for wear. Thanks to all. BTW - Merry Christmas.
Well - thanks to all. It was the drive gear in the xfer case. It had come off the shaft - even with a nylock nut. I guess I use come loctite...
Correct me if I am wrong, but would the low range rod be the outboard rod? What is this telling me...When it's in 2H the front drive shaft...
That was my thought about the coil too. Just an unhappy coincidence. I pulled the floor pans today so I could see all of the linkages on the...

The drive shafts are not turning in 2H, 4H or 4L, however the transfer does engage.
She runs no problem - she will just not motivate. According to the 1969 owner's manual both trans and xfer are to be in neutral for towing (page 32).
Yesterday the '5 made a pop while accelerating and quit on me about a half mile from the house. I coasted her to the shoulder and tried to...
Thanks to everyone for the advice. It was a bad ignition switch. Installed a new one today, and it is running like a champ.
Gee Walt, and I was hopin' for a quick fix with a change in switch. This could complicate things :)The alt light does not appear to work, but all...
I have to run it pretty tight to avoid the manifold. It puts it into the firewall at a fairly accute angle. I think that is part of my sticky...
Thanks Tim. I hot wired it, and it fired right up. I check the switch side of the resister and have no joice there. I am guessin' that my...
I parked the '5 in the driveway last Sunday and it sat there for a couple of hours. Went out later to put it in the garage, and it would not...
