Finally huh? Those are the ones I use that cute little 6" pipe wrench on. It is small enough to get on them. Once you get it loose, then you can use the torx bit

fuel pump gone this time ...........:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:









gonna have fun finding one ........:sad0147:

[4.3LXJ]

Does Barbie use the TJ or the Grand Cherokee pump?

[cantab27]

tj ..in the tank?????

[4.3LXJ]

The reason I ask is that I do not know how much pressure you need off the pump yet. That is one thing I need to figure out for TJ Resurrection. Maybe I should start looking.

[cantab27]

can test mine when I get new one sorted ..will be next week but ....have a skid date coming up soon

[4.3LXJ]

OK, I did a little research and I think a pump that puts out 60 psi will be OK. The 4.0 pump puts out that much. So far in theory the stock 4.0 pump wold be OK for you. Probably easier to find a TJ pump?

[cantab27]

found a fix by po that um wasn't fixed cause it broke again........was a wire finding was fun,,,,,,,does skids again ....gonna thrash it on sunday...yall might get pics .......maybe:smiley-taunt002:

ps...if anyone sees my boss tell em im home sick as ....got the jeep thing bad:rolleye0012:

[4.3LXJ]

The Jeep Bug is a known public health hazard with a bite that cannot be cured short of death. Diagnosis is considered an environmental hazard and politically opposed to the green movement. When bitten, each victim is put on the green watch list and decried as a mental disease, with symptoms of roaring engines, empty bank accounts and extremely modified Jeeps.

sooo

6642

6643

6644


so run a weld around hole to heat and shrike it ...worked as had to press the joints in .....lots of grinding and trying to make it look factory , as its a big no no fix down here ..only other way would be to swap out the whole axle ....so a one hour job took about 5 ....:sad0147::sad0147::smiley-laughing021:

[4.3LXJ]

If ya had to mate, you could replace the C. Grind the weld, knock it off and put another on and reweld

[cantab27]

[4.3LXJ]

You will kick yourself for this one too mate. Maybe you could buy a prius to drive around and save gas

[cantab27]

You will kick yourself for this one too mate. Maybe you could buy a prius to drive around and save gas

still got the grand..............gas not the thing wanna build a tourer...cant sleep in the tj;)

[4.3LXJ]

I hear ya on that. When I finish my build, it will have a hybrid cage with a roof tent, ARB maybe and a roll out kitchen out the back. I like getting away from people, but it is kind of a hassle to set up camp. Need to be there at least 4 days to make it worthwhile with all the stuff we have. If I have it set up right, about 30 minute setup and take down

[cantab27]

yep...just gotta figure out what to build ..

[4.3LXJ]

I have an inverter in the back and run my apartment size fridge. I could probably use a smaller one, but I don't want to put out the cash for an ARB. So, with a little smaller fridge sitting to one side, I think I will have a slide out counter with stove attached and sink. Bucket goes under the sink and there will be a small water tank in the Jeep too with a pump and LED lights. I am thinking a tent that attaches to the back, like some you can buy fitting the rear with the tailgate up to cover the kitchen. Planning fairly soon to run flexible copper pipe around the exhaust for hot water for the portable shower I have should we camp for more than a couple of days. We can get pretty grubby on the trails here in the summer. With tent on top, should work out fairly comfortable on any trail

[Carves]

still got the grand..............gas not the thing wanna build a tourer...cant sleep in the tj;)

Not a problem mate. Convince her there will be less noise if she puts all the kids in a trailer lined with foam rubber. They will be all worn out by the time she gets there. Less noise then too

quote re pump


FlowKooler water pumps solve low-speed overheating problems by doubling the water flow rate at low RPM & idle. At 3,500 RPM the flow rate returns to normal to prevent excess water flow at high speed. Independent testing has proven that FlowKooler water pumps produce 20% more gallons per minute at 2000 RPM and 100% more gallons per minute at 900 RPM than any other pump on the market today, including expensive racing pumps. FlowKooler pumps also generate 22% more water pressure inside the engine block than other water pumps. This increased pressure helps suppress engine hot spots, steam pockets, and pinging. In addition to higher output, the FlowKooler water pump is up to 32% more efficient than other pumps, meaning less horse power is required to turn it. The result is overall lower operating temperature by as much as 30 degrees when cruising at low speeds. All pumps are brand new (not rebuilt) and are covered by a 2 Year Limited Warranty.

[cj4a nz]

yep it may do all that but if your radiator is covered in shit all the waterflow in the world won't make it run cooler :rolleye0012:


or is it radiator in the back time :smiley-scared003: :smiley-scared003:
