yes, if it doesn't shut off then you aren't getting enough fuel pressure, that is true

No, you can easily do that but its only going to come on for about a few seconds when the engine cranks and then it will stop. But you can do the sender test

I was going to say to taje the belt off too

On the three wires from the body, do you know which is power to the oump and which is ground? I imagine black and red? Unplug the pin that is supposed to be for the gage and just get the pump to work. Than you can plug the gage in. If the gage still deflects backwards, their sender is hooked...

yes sir

they are trying to sell you something so they are going to say that. i have run 3 inch lifts on two 87 model jeeps with control arm front ends, the xj and the mj. i have also run 3 inch lifts on two or three zj grand cherokees, which run the exact same front end as the xj and mj jeeps (and...

Not with a 3 inch lift. You can if you want to but you dont have to. The angle of the control arms wont be bad

I didn't do a drop pitman on a comanche with a three inch lift or on a cherokee with a three inch lift. I never had any trouble from not doing it. You have an 87, like my 87 cherokee so you have a high pinion front axle which means you wont run into any angle issues with lifting like newer...

Dang, i missed the lock part. Yup, they need to fix that too

Dang, you have 450k on that jeep? Pretty good. I could have only gone to 300k in a few jeeps. One chevy 1500 i could have gotten the 800k and one 524td bmw could have gotten the 800k but those are all long gone. Now , the highest mile is the 04 ranger with 225k. The jeeps are all 140k or...

I have no idea on the size. I dont even know where to google to find out. That is one of those things that i always shadetree mechanic did on my own and it magically worked out using a fine pick to get the pins out of the sockets one at a time.

I have never seen manual windows strip so i dont know what is in them. I imagine someone makes a reolacement assembly but you might have to find a newer year xj to use them from

I have never changed one either. I have bought some vehicles that the pan bolt leaked because the previous owner stripped it and failed to tell me but i just put teflon tape on the threads and snugged it up and that fixed the leak

Take it back and have them buff it out

Welcome!! Great looking yj
