99 Cherokee XJ 2.5 TD
 

bought this one from avk for spare parts but now fixing it too..

came with:
2.5 TD VM Moottori
AX-15 Transmission
NP231 Transfer Case
3" Rough Country lift kit
Webasto
etc...

problems:
body is not in bad condition, still repairable
transmission is full of water, yes frozen now. no shifting at all.
PCV has lots of leaks. should replace hoses.
the guy who replaced clutch left few bolts hanging in bell-housing :D

other one still in progress, will be ready by 2045
90 XJ Cherokee

With that engine, the tranny should be AX-15!!

yes AX-15, typo i guess :)

case cleaning painting in progress...

transmission finished.

turbo, intake, egr exhaust, coolant pipes etc had ultrasonic bath. ready to go back...

shift-stick dirt seal. made it from rellus' steering arm seal. input-output shaft seals just came in. tamgears.com had them available.

removed front side. radiator not looking good though. meanwhile did some cleaning in electricity stuff. total junk.

I have a new radiator on my stock... Not cheap....

is it copper or aluminum one you have in stock? that makes a big difference in pricing though.

OEM item, plastic ends, might be aluminium, don´t ever seen any other on those...

ok, i will check. should get the body ready first.

finally have a bit of time to continue on this thing and ordered some parts too. radiator full aluminum, gasket kit and hydraulic lifters. put whole engine in pieces for cleaning and checking piston, crankshaft... bearings. all no good. except lifters and rocker arms.

fixed the damage on front left side minor adjustments left for measurements. interior is off to lift the roof back where it was before.

if anybody selling front left fender + hood, I can buy.

block clean up... hopefully I ll get less dirty when putting it back.

got all new seals and bearings. crankshaft front bearing, one piece, instead of two shells.
connecting rod bearings (kk laakeri).

front-end: ...
rear end seal: 110x130x13 TC
rear end carrier o-ring: 164x3

put back everything in one piece. had little bit of work on valve seats. didn't have 36 angle cutter, machine shop did it for reasonable price 4x valves+seats 60e. not bad though.

engine went back into its place with tranny in one piece. i was lazy enough not to remove the brackets to make it quicker (in my head) but it wasn't the best idea. remove the mounting brackets from chasis :) saves time and nervous.

after all, It starts and runs fine. gears etc plays well.
