    Steering Wheel Lock

    It's not the key lock. Could be a broken spring behind the locking pin that engages the plate or part of the rack linkage. No worries on it accidentally engaging when turned on though.

    WTB tow hitch

    I've got one that came off my '94, but no nut-strips if you're interested. It's in Covina and with-in your budget :cheers:

    Np242 slips into fulltime 4wd

    :clap: Good deal. Get that replaced and then re-adjust your linkage again and you should be good to go (hopefully :cheers:)

    Np242 slips into fulltime 4wd

    I've had my TC (231) start jumping out of 4low, so Ditto on above checking the rear trans mount. Don't just visually check it. Put a bar next to it and see if you can shift the trans back and forth. Put some umph into it :). The mount may be good, but you might have lost one or more of the...

    Wobbly Tilt Steering

    Yup. Since they are loose, they generally are easy to get out with your fingers. Things are tight in there and trying to find a "slim" socket that will fit into the column is next to impossible (some GM/sagnaw columns have more room than others). I've found that it's easier and cheaper to...

    Just bought overhead computer console for my 00 XJ. Any tips?

    Have you read posts 12 & 18 of this thread? Might be helpful if not. Actually, the whole thread has lots of bits and pieces of good info.

    W/50 views, I guess no one has one (or wants to get rid of one) haha. Oh well on to other venues to find one. Thanks for looking!

    WTB / WTT- Blitz type Military (Heavy Gage) Gas can carrier

    I have one already, but I'm converting my single carrier to a dual one. so I need another one to match. The new ones are just too thin a gage to be useful for my application, so I'm looking for a heavier military gage one. Hopefully, someone's got one laying around ??? :dunno: I haven't been...

    1995 Starting Issues

    That Dead click you're talking about is supposed to be there and has a definite purpose. It unlocks/ retracts the internal locking pin on the steering wheel, but does not engage any electrical contacts with-in the ignition switch. Most XJ's have it, but most people don't notice it. Now for...

    Rear Hatch Rattle Driving Me NUTS.

    FYI. You can adjust the latch post to some degree. 2 nuts underneath on the body accessable just past the top of the bumper (14mm wrench?). I had the same problem. The post on mine was actually loose on it's mounting plate and instead of replacing it, I just welded the bottom of it. Problem...

    1996 XJ fuel pump and pressure regulator repair details

    Thanks for taking the time to post this for us '96ers ! I have yet to replace the OEM pump/regulator in mine, but being 18+ years old does bring the issue to the top of my mind.

    AW4 not shifting

    Here's a shot in the dark for you. My '96 (or '94 ... can't remember) started to do the same thing while on a trip a few years ago. After checking a few things, I ended up unplugging the wiring loom from the TCM and plugging it back in. It fixed the problem and haven't touched it since. Just...

    Stabilizing bar issue

    Here's another method. Go by any place that installs trailer hitches. They have extra parts laying around from installations. Pick up a couple of frame bolt backing plates (my name for them). These are approx. 1 1/2" x 2 1/2" plates made to use carriage bolts and designed to slip inside the...
