My coworker came over last sunday to use my pressure washer on his newly acquired wildernest to get it cleaned up, I decided it was a good time to open mine and take a look inside the back of the MJ........I'm find all sorts of parts I forgot where back there.

Where's your snow?

Keep me posted if you plan on a camping trip to southern Colorado or northern New Mexico.

I gotta start sitting down the with the Xj wiring diagrams and the KJ wiring diagrams to see what I can adapt from one to the other, and what I need to add, like glow plug relays. etc.

I took a video looking at turbo differences, I guess I'll stick with the original turbo:

Awesome video, Sam! Interesting comparison, for sure. Modern day turbos have come a long way in their overall sophistication. Yes, the design is similar, but the complexity of the newer turbo setup is built for efficiency.
