Hello all, Its been a while since I have been online but I am back at it again... I am planning on purchasing a R&P kit (G2 from Quadratec) to regear my XJ. Its currently a factory Dana 44/Dana 30 with factory 3.55 gears. The kit I am looking at comes with install kit and required materials...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! So I'm back on the thought process of fender flares. My 99 XJ has about 4.5 lift and I only run 31's but they do extend past the OEM flares a bit. Now that Mass has gone to this extreme annual vehicle inspection, I'm looking for solutions. When I ran to the store...

Hello all, This weekend I spent most of it installing my new exhaust manifold. I went with a Banks, and am very happy with it. Its a 99 XJ, that engine wise is mainly stock and about 105k on it. Its in fantastic shape, so I am trying to keep it that way. Here is the problem; i was methodical...

I am posting to modified to stay on the safe side, but it may be applicable to OEM as well. I was doing some work to my 1999 XJ today, and came across an issue. I have spent a solid year getting the Jeep to my standard and essentially gutted the entire drivetrain and have done just about...

I picked up some rock sliders, and am looking at ways to mount them. Nothing too special, and I didn't really buy them for rocks but other damage to the rockers. My XJ is mainly to get me to work no matter what the weather condition and the occasional trip through the woods and the beach. For...

I'm looking for the door water shields for a 99 4 door. Mainly the drivers front, but the front pair would be great. Mine a all torn up. For such a simple part, I'm having a heck of a time finding them, hoping someone out there can help!

Another question for tonight: The seal on my left side rear door is badly torn. Its the one that attaches to the rear door and seals between the front and rear door along the pillar area. Its attached with adhesive to the inside edge of the rear door. I'm looking for the actual part name so I...

Hello All, Not a huge problem, but I was hoping to get an idea before its really cold out or it fails completely. The steering wheel on my 99 XJ, no longer locks when the key is removed from the ignition. I haven't had the column apart, with the exception of changing the turn signal switch in...

Hello folks! Thought I would share some recent problems I had finding a water leak. Got my XJ last fall, and have been working on it non-stop since then. After heavy rain, the drivers side floor would be wet. I tried everything from engine bay to finally replacing the door seal. Thought I had it...

Hello all, I'm cleaning out my garage, and I came across these. Picked them up years ago, and never got around to putting them to use. Believe they came off a support trailer, but the auction I got them from was not specific. What I can tell you is this: they are solid metal, o-ring lenses and...

Long story short: I was installing my ACOS spacers today, and when I pulled the bumpstop , it was like pulling the drain plug out of a boat. Drivers side was fine, but the passenger side in in question. Tomorrow, I plan on looking for the pathway that the water followed, but does anyone have any...

I was finishing up my front axle swap this weekend, and decided to pull the drivers side seat so I could access the firewall easier. I was very surprised when I found the carpet soaking wet. There was some rust on the floor pan, but it was still solid so I cleaned it up and treated it with POR...

Hello All, I'm going to put this under the "modified" section, but its essentially OEM. I am putting together a front axle for my XJ, using an older high pinion Dana 30. The XJ is a mild build, with 31 inch tires. It already has a powertrax locker and new seals throughout. I cleaned the axle up...

I wanted to share my new bumper details: I just did a cut and fold on my 99. The cancer had gone too far so I had no choice. After searching high and low, I went with the Ares fab Evo cut and fold. I'm at the painting point now, but I am so impressed, I had to share it. I might be old and...

Greetings all, I am well into the work on my new/used XJ. My lift will probably be mid-summer, but I am doing some planning now. My plan is to take the Dana 44 that was in my 88 and swap it over. In the old XJ, I used a hack and tap with a flange type adapter at the case (231). I had a...

I would like add a new receiver hitch on my 99 XJ. I see some form of threaded nuts on the passenger side. Is this a nut strip or something removable? I was planning on adding 2 new strips so they are nice and new.

I have a factory gas skid that came off my 1988. I bought it brand new about 5 years ago. It is in perfect shape, no rust or dents. Best offer, but I am guessing shipping may be a bit high since its pretty heavy.

I have a set of BRAND NEW Rubicon Express shackles. PN RE2700. Still in unopened box. Retails for around $90, asking $50 plus shipping from 02649.

I'm hoping to swap out the adjuster on my new XJ. Its completely covered with rust and looks ready to snap at any minute. I've been looking over some auctions, and Cherokee units are in about the same shape. TJ adjusters however are nearly new. Does anyone know if the units are interchangeable...

Good News! After searching for months for a suitable replacement for my tired old 88, I secured a 1999 XJ Sport. Its completely stock, and in outstanding condition for its age. I'm hoping that some of the guru's familiar with the new models can shed some light on a small issue I am having...
