    Funny rattle...

    I have a strange sounding rattle in the drivers side front end that I can't figure out. It only rattles when I hit a moderate to large bump. It sounds like someone jingling change in their pocket kinda... any ideas? 3" Rusty's Springs with .75" spacer up front. Rusty's shocks, Kevin's...

    Rear too high...

    I've finally grown completely fed up with my rear end. I have never been happy with it since I bought Rusty's 3" Full Spring Pack kit. The rear is still at around 4.5" even after well more than a year. I want to get it back down around 3" or so. Any ideas? Obviously I could get a new spring...

    Driveline Vibes

    OK, I've been searcing online about this for a while and made a few posts on here. I just read an article about lift side effects that was posted in another thread, and got my curiosity up. I have a Rusty's 3" Full spring pack lift and a 1" TC drop. In reality the rear is at abot 4" and the...

    Thinking about going to 4.5"

    I installed a Rusty's 3" Full spring pack lift kit last year. As I've posted before, I've never really been completely happy with it mainly because the rear ended up being 4"+ lift and it was noticable just looking at the Jeep. It hasn't settled at all since the install. Now Rusty's has his...

    Compass on overhead console

    I just noticed a few days ago that the compass in the overhead info console on my '99 XJ has gone a little screwy. In the past it has always seemed pretty correct, but in the last few days it is showing about 1/8 direction off (shows W when it should say SW). Any ideas?

    '99 XJ front end/steering issues

    OK, I recently added some .75" spacers to my front 3" Rusty's lift mainly to try and even up the front with the rear. This has created some issues on its own for the front end and steering. I now have a little bump steer (not too bad but noticeable) and also the steering wheel is a little off...

    '99 XJ Dead Battery, won't idle...

    My son left the interior lights on last night, and the Jeep wouldn't even turn over this morning... I finally got it jumped this afternoon, by giving it gas while I cranked it... but now it won't idle. It will run if I keep my foot on the gas, but as soon as I let off, it dies. It doesn't even...

    Slip Yoke CV Driveshaft

    I just found these guys online, and I was wondering if any of you have experience running one of these Slip Yoke CV drive shafts on your XJ. I have a '99 with about 4" of lift. Thanks. http://www.arizonadrivelines.com/blazer_rear.htm At the bottom of the page the "No High Angle Driveshaft"

    Noise in rear

    Now that I have my rear main seal leak and front diff o-ring fixed... something else comes up. I first noticed this a few weeks ago after I had to stop kinda hard... I am having a "popping" noise coming from what sounds like my rear diff. I have Rusty's 3" lift on it, and have for about 1...

    '99 XJ vibes, SYE

    Ok, I've done some searching and I have to ask... '99 XJ with rusty's (supposedly 3" spring pack), it's more like 4"+. I've had it over one year now, and I'm sick of the vibes. 1" TC drop, rear axle shimmed. I'm looking at the RE1807 SYE kit with the RE1898 CV driveshaft. Has anyone had...

    XJ Lift Suspension Question

    OK, last year I put the Rusty's 3" Full Spring Pack on my '99 XJ along with some 31"x10.5"x15" tires. I've posted about this before... the rear was initially about 4.5", and hasn't really settled much even to date. I've read other posts on this, and see that I am not alone in this with Rusty's...

    99 XJ Electric Fan

    Just checking to see if this is normal... my electric fan on the radiator runs normally when the truck gets a little heated. It comes on correctly and runs until the temp gets back down to normal, then turns off. However when I turn on the AC, the fan runs for like 8 seconds, turns off for...

    Anti-Sway Bar Removal

    I've read some posts recently that suggested removing the rear anti-sway bar for various reasons. I have a few questions about this. What does this mod do to the on road drivability? How hard is the thing to remove, and does anyone know of any pics or instructions online? TIA.

    Rusty's 3" Lift ???

    OK, it just dawned on me to ask this on here... I've posted several times about my driveline vibes since I installed a Rusty's 3" lift with full spring pack in the rear (which Rusty later told me was really a 3.5"). Anyway, I was thinking about it tonight while driving and hearing the vibes, I...

    Tow Hooks with Manik Brush Guard

    I've got a Manik Brush Guard installed on my '99 XJ. I would very much like to install some front tow hooks. It looks to me that the brush guard is installed where most of the tow hooks I've seen would be installed. Does anyone have experience installing tow hooks along with a brush guard...
