The 89 XJ was having some trouble starting and coupled with some rough idle issues lead me to believe the CPS needed replacing.

Arggh. I hate it when I spend 90 minutes figuring out how to take something off, then when I replace the new one, I figure out the way I should have taken it off. The reinstall only took 90 seconds.

I picked up the part from Advance Auto Parts, they are on sale this week.

I love stock backspacing, remember I run a hub conversion on the front and a 1″spacer on the rear. So maybe I don’t really love stock backspacing just stock rims. Sue me, I like my rig to look stock with mods; does that make sense?

I have a serious dilemma. I really need to increase the reliability of my beads. While on Indy last week I popped 2 beads. I like the look of these steel rims, but they only come in a 4.5″ backspace. I guess without my spacer on the rear I am sitting at about the same in the rear, but the front will stick out another 3/4″. I love the look on my TJ Canyons, heck I even drilled them out to except my hub conversion. Oh well they should bring some decent $$s on eBay.
