I haven't had a jeep in quite some time(1975) and I have a chance to get
back in one for cheep!
1989 (yj?) soft top, good body, four cylinder, good frame for $500. The
kicker is that the tranny is shot. When I looked at it, the tranny wasn't

Hey Gang,
This is my problem,  When it is cold 4wd does not work.  I have changed the
fluid in the T-case and front diff, now I am running synthetic.  I Pulled
off the front actuator, it works properly.  I blew into it and sucked into

I just received my 4" lift kit for my 83 CJ7 and noticed that the front
springs are narrower than the rear.  I called the guy I bought it from and
he couldn't give a reason for the difference other than that the stock
perches are made for those widths (front spring width is 2", rear ...

If I have 1/4 tank or less and turn sharply, the fuel appears to slosh to
one side of the tank resulting in loss of fuel (and power) for a second or
two.  Has anyone else noticed this?  Is there a solution besides keeping the
tank full?

So I get in my 84' Fiero to go to work yesterday, turn the key... nothing,
headlights work but no dash lights.  Oh well... go to the 01' Chevy 2500HD,
it starts, but I noticed it was a little slow to turn over.  Didn't think
much of it, after all, I had not used it in the last two ...

Should I be using a ground plane or non ground plane antenna??  FYI, I
have the dual tops.
Thanks,
Jay

I am the guy who posted a week ago about trouble with my new disc
brakes.   Just wanted to let everyone know that bleeding them did the
trick and now they stop great.  Thanks for the advice.

I have a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Up-Country option, the
factory shocks are tired and I want to replace them.  I noticed they are
mounted upside down and wondered what the benefit is by doing that?
With my new purchase should I mount the new shocks in the same matter?

Hi, my yj hasnt started in about 4 months now and it is really ticking
me off; luckily my trusty xj has been hauling me around but anyway if
you think you have an idea let me know, here's the symptoms

I remember a few folks posting that they didn't like their TJ Hi-Back seats in
their '01-and higher TJ's. I sat in one today and must say I did like it. If
anyone wants to work a trade deal for some good condition '00 TJ seats, let me
know....

Are you still looking to lose your hiback seats on your TJ? Did you ever find
out if a pre-01 seat will fit in your TJ? I was at the Detroit auto show today
and sat in a TJ Unlimited (with the TJ hibacks), and I actually like those
seats better than the ones in my 2K TJ. I'm a ...

Thinking I might want to swap out the AX-15 in my 97 TJ for an auto,
but I'm wondering if that's practical? Besides the trans, what else
will need changing? I thought possibly mounts, driveshafts, maybe even
the console and brake pedal - what else?

I'm looking to buy a decent GPS to use when I Jeep in the Anza Borrego
Desert.  We cut over from S22  near Salton Sea got kinda lost on our journy
to Ocotillo Wells.  Can anyone recommend a decent GPS that is not too
expensive?
