Not sure if this would be the best place to add this...

A friend of mine bought a '98 engine for his '89 jeep...
The purchase included the engine compartment wiring harnesses, which he didn't use. But I wanted to upgrade some of the wiring in my '89, so he gave them to me.
Specifically, I wanted to use the distribution block right off the battery ('91 and later, these are stock under the hood fuse blocks).

At any rate, I went to the local library to find and copy the manuals for the '98 harness to ensure I matched up the best lines in the best places.
The librarian asked if I had ever used the online resources.
She then directed me to the site (Portland can access via www.multcolib.org and a library card ID #).

It had pretty much everything I would imagine.
... least for the '98.

Older Jeeps had less, but still more than the Hanes manuals.
I was going to attach the power distro pages, but they are just a hair too large (65kb - 74kb).

This can't be a local library only. Check your local library and get access.
Good stuff...

Yep, everybody should have access to their online library. My mom works for a library and I use the online Chilton quite a bit

Just noticed that the wiring diagrams may not be correct for my year...
It has the under the hood fuse block shown from a '91+ on my '89 which doesn't have an under the hood fuse block next to the bat.

~ though still useful for the most part and I'd recommend checking it all out anyway.
