Diesel XJ **Parts & Info**

[Evert]

Hey guys, just a quick question. On the first post here it says that a Ryco A1332 air filter will fit a 2.5 diesel cherokee.
I had a look on the Ryco site and there is says that the filter is for a petrol cherokee and not the diesel. The dimension of the air filter on the Ryco website is 170 x 343 mm where the dimensions of the diesel airbox are roughly 140 x 220 mm.
Any thoughts?
Will the valvoline and purolator fit or should i just go to Jeep and buy an original one? What do you guys buy?

Thanks

Recommended way to remove is detach at tail end, then remove all bits above the turbo. Unbolt the oil feed line, take care not to lose the copper washers. Drop the turbo off the headers by the three bolts to the headers.

You will need to cut/grind a ring spanner to 3.5/4mm thick to fit it over the rear stud and onto the nut.
These nuts do not appear to be hardened at all so BE CAREFUL not to burr them.
Then the turbo should drop and be able to shift it so you can get the Torx bolts out.

I would recommend if you have the $$$ to do it, custom headers and intake elbow, to allow turbo to be shifted forwards/higher, allowing a better flow dump pipe, with much easier access.

Or in the first place, dont go bouncing your dump pipe off rocks and truck tyres!!

Before you place a spanner on these bolts/studs, spray with Bolt Off (in a blue labeled aerosol. We also use it to remove felt pen marks on goods/shelves )and leave for half an hour. We sell it out here in Emerald so should be available most places. Save drilling out a broken stud. G-r-r-r-r-r #@*!

Hi Everyone,

Chasing a Clutch Kit for 99 XJ Diesel. we have a number off Jeep : 04864835AB - can anyone confirm?

Whats a Spigot, pilot or Release Bearing? We are being told its seperate to the actual Clutch Kit...

thanks
Mike

there are usual two kits available:

with or without release bearing. But it is stupid not to replace the release bearing while at it.
the release bearing does transmit the force you put on the pedal to release the clutch via the release fork.
It does sit directly begind the tranny in front of the clutch assembly.
Yes and it the thing usually making noise when worn.

there is another tiny non metric(!) bearing( called pilot bearing) inside the flywheel you should replace that too to avoid future trouble.
The only problem is this bearing is hidden behind 5 stretchable bolts which have to be replaced every time and they aren't cheap.

A good kit contains the clutch cover, clutch disc and release bearing assembly
usually they are made by Sachs and sold under various brand names.
can't tell you the jeep number- to expensive anyway. Just make sure to lube the spline very slightly of the transmission with a special high temperature grease designed for that purpose.
