Sorry mods if you want to move this but I thought I'd try the local guys first to avoid shipping. I have a set of Gabriel HiJacker adjustable ride rear shocks that I bought to fit on my 2.5" lifted 1992 XJ. I've had them in the closet for over a year, never installed. I still have the box. I...

South Bend has a good variety of darn good food. And what I can tell from passing through quite often, good atmosphere too. I'm highly considering moving from Michigan City to South Bend. Oh, and up there in Kalamazoo where I went to College, I always liked Burdick's Bar and Grille....

I am trying to replace my steering dampener but am having an unexpected hell of a time. The end with the bolt through the eye came apart perfectly fine. The end with the pin out the side through the steering rod is my problem. I removed the castle nut but I just cant get that attached lug...

my bar got loose, was banging around and twisted the the bolt off at the nut so I need to replace both the bolt and nut...grrr

well since it is my only car I cannot remove my track bar bolt and bring it with me to the store so I was wondering if anyone knew the size and length of the through-bolt at the axle for a stock Track Bar (1992 if it matters).

what is the price on a pair of those? I have standard springs with spacers now I want my 2" to be all coil if I can edit: I called CarQuest, they say the HD Coils dont lift at all, just stock height

I dig it... you need to get the "SporTruck" decal for it though :)

yeah...I have a 1992 XJ and I have the plugs on the top of my bumper...dumb question but also, there is no noticable loss of cooling from partial blocking the grill is there?

I want to install some 6" round fog lights onto my bumper in the stock fog lights location. Currently that spot is empty on my Jeep. My question is KC HiLighter kit for $120 versus an Autozone Blazer brand kit for $30..... why spend the extra money? Anyone use the Blazer brand?

I've been putting this off on my own '92 for way too long

I on the other hand have replaced my wheels, tires, shocks, brakes, trac bar, had an alignment and a balance and STILL havent been about to drive my daily driver over 50mph in nearly a year..... most recent mechanic said steering gear...

yesterday, Sept 27th around 1pm I ate lunch at Burger King in Wanatah, Indiana (Route 30 and US 421) and looked over the XJ just outside the window but as I drove away I saw the NAXJA sticker... ...anyone here?

what is the absolute best, but easy to locate rust eater? I'm trying to work on my front end but I am totally beaten by the 18mm nuts on the sway bar endlinks and the steering stabilizer.... ...I've broken 3 Craftsman 18mm sockets so far so I bought an 18mm 6 point wrench but.... I need to...

I am fairly well versed in doing drum jobs...and feel totally confident once the drum is off, but I tried to work on mine today (the rear right one actually locked up on me today but once it broke loose I tried to get in to inspect it all) and I couldnt get the damn thing off for the life of me...

I have had a death wobble that has been nagging me about 6 months now. This isnt a general "whats the cause" post.... ...I'm curious... I have a 2.5" lift with coil spacers in the front but still a stock track bar. How LIKELY is this to be a cause? I've exhausted many many other options. Is it...
