You can get the parts to rebuild your steering gear, but in all honesty for the trouble and time you will have invested in rebuilding the thing. If it were me (and beleave me when I say there was a time I wanted to do it all myself. up to and including manufacturing new parts from a chunk of steel) I'd go with a rebuilt steering gear. You can try to replace the seal but in the long run some thing made it give out in the first place.

A/C keeps blowing the fuse after I got it recharged. Its the R-12 system and it seemed to be ok before but now I got it recharged and replaced the blower motor in the front and now as soon as I turn it on it blows the fuse. I replaced the 3 fuse black and even rewired the fuses then took off the connectors tot he rotary switch and replaced those but it still blows the fuse. Any suggestions?

Could I have messed something up on installing the blower motor. __________________

please comment on these solution

Check with faxonautoliterature.com. They list a couple of wiring diagrams for 1984 Jeeps although they don't specify Renegade. These are official Jeep dealer diagrams for $29. I've used them before and had excellent service. Hope this helps.

you dont need a diagram, all you need is a test light and someone to push your brake pedal.

well, if you mean cold cranking amps the bigger the better but the price will also get bigger with the more amps you need.... 6cly or 8?

check the splines for consistency as many have a master spline ( one wider or like 2 as one) so that the steering wheel always ends up in the correct position
you may have to fit a different yoke to the box to take the new shaft

The power steering pump is black and has a 2" diameter cap theat screws on.
