93 Tin top tracker
« on: March 02, 2011, 08:29:51 PM »
I just picked up a 93 4x4 auto hardtop tracker. My plans are to take the lift out of my wrecked 96 soft top 5 speed and swap the diffs for the 5.12 gears and run some 30x9.5's. I will post some pics if i ever get off work before 7pm.

started working on it today. I got the rear lifted with my 4door spring and Zuks spacers. I am looking under the dash now trying to find the nag switch to shut off the check engine light.

It's there, trust me.  I just found it on one of my Trackers behind that little dash panel under the steering column.  That was the only thing activating the light.  I knew that's what the problem was when disconnecting the battery wasn't resetting the battery, and I couldn't flash the codes.  Once I found the switch and reset it, the CEL shut off.  OOOH MAGIC
Glad you're able to put those parts to good use!  I'd like to see pics of what's going on.  You know where to find me if you need some other parts...

If the code never came back after disconnecting the battery, you just cleared the code (whatever it was).  It was not the mileage code.
Nice clean looking tin top.  Did you invert the strut mounts?

Oh ya, a bunch, i can get in it and it starts right up. 4 wheel drive is 100% . Just the damage to the right side was more then i wanted to put in to it.  I want to pull the gears this weekend if i can.

Mine must be incredably rare since it's a 95 tintop! 8)

Doh bentparts you got me!! That's right. I believe the tracker tintops were through 95 but the sidekicks cut off the tintops after 93. Thanks for the reminder  ;D although bentparts yours IS the ultra super rare turbocharged model  :laugh:
