    TJ tries to engage in neutral

    Brakes just stop the tires. Seems the highest probability would be the new slave cylinder or the new throw out bearing. I will bleed the SC first before exploratory surgery :(

    TJ tries to engage in neutral

    lol, sorry for the confusion. If the clutch is engaged, there are no noises. If the clutch is not engaged (in neutral) there is considerable noise and shaking as it the transmission was trying to engage Hitting the brake in idle with the clutch not engaged does not nothing

    Pretty sure. Ran it on some light trails (4H and 4L) and it worked fine.

    TJ tries to engage in neutral

    Hi all, Something has gone wrong after some drivetrain repairs and I thought I would post here before tearing it back down. I have a 97 TJ with a manual transmission and a 4.0 engine. My rear driveline came loose on the freeway and beat the crap out of everything and split my Tcase. So since...

    97 TJ AC Rebuild

    10-4 on replacing the liquid line and the kit I bought has all the 0-rings and oil. I have the FSM. I was asking about capacity with the possibility of having oil in the system. Flushing and purging sounds like a great idea and I have a very powerful vacuum pump. Thanks for the prompt replies!

    97 TJ AC Rebuild

    Hi All, I'm Matt and this is my first post. My TJ has factory air, but was not working when I got it. And from the looks of the system it has not ran for awhile. The interior control box was jacked (bought a used one) and the compressor was frozen. The engine was running with a non-ac...
