AIR LIFT 59507 http://shop.airliftcompany.com/product/289826/59507/_/Ride_Control%3B_Ride_Control_Kit any idea if this might fit a 1999 manual sport not lift stock w/ skid plates and hitch thanks for any help

would the AIR LIFT 59507 work on a 1999 xj?

Replacing my u-joints on my drive shaft I noticed that the old front u-joint by the t case didn't have a zerk fitting on it. The replacements I were giving at the parts store both have zerk fittings on them. Can the replacement u-joint w/ zerk be used on the front?

i will check that stuff out any idea what the cost of those issues would run? How big of a project would they be, I only have basic tools and no garage so I need some idea of what i would be getting myself into.

*sound* sorry been up awhile

I need some help figuring out whats wrong with my xj, 98 140 000miles and stock, There is a rough rolling sound comming from the front right of my jeep. When I accelerate it gets more noticable and when I let off of the gas it goes away. It seems as if it gets pretty loud at around 70 mph but...

It's will likely bend, unfortunitly it did when we were trying to remove it. I was never able to locate a new one and everyone I went to had no idea what i was talking about. so we had to reshape it and beat it back into it's orig position. That damn case drove me crazy. Heat really was about...

I had a ticking like that it turned out to be the header gasket becuase, See if all the header bolts are tight? What had happened with mine was that it blew out a peice of the gasket. It was also behind the sixth cylinder/ the farthest from the front. I was able to feel it when i stuck my hand...

Yeah i got under there and tried the screwdriver thing and the nut would just jump the threads. So, like any good mechanic I gave up. Fuse box in the vehicle or the engine compartment?? I will give it ago again when i find some flat stock

Air pressure in tires good??? not sure if that would cuase it or not

thanks 5-90 deffinitly a real help i will give it a try, should I, replace the springs, allso where would i find them

have you rebuit it?? there shouldn't be any play that i can remember, I had some play in it after i rebuilt mine, make sure your snap rings are all on there is one tricky one let me know.

stupid 242s and their mindboggling Good to hear you got it.

So went to take the switch off and got the bolt holding it on off and bent the flaps back that hold the bigger nut, now i can't see how to pull it off. I tried useing a flat head as mentioned above with no luck, the nut just slipped the threads, Im affraid to put too much force with the screw...

it seems possible but will the factory 98 cherokee cross members support a cargo box. seems like it would work but i would rather not find out the hard way, Any body out there have any experiance with this setup
