Hey guys, I have two symptoms that started occurring at the same time:
1. Starter won't crank the engine all the way over about half of the time. If I keep cranking the key, eventually it will turn the engine over and the jeep will start.
2. When the engine does start, it won't idle without...
I'm about to start this swap so I figured I'd let you watch this mess unfold. If you see me about to do something stupid, please let me know.
Here are the parts that I've acquired over the last few months.
My parts list (Google Doc)
Started by baking the knuckles in the oven at 500...
The middle exhaust hanger at the transmission mount ripped out of the exhaust pipe. This happened when the rear exhaust hanger failed in the middle of a long trip. Now it's rattling on the crossmember.
Any idea what I can do to fix this without replacing the whole pipe? The crossmember is...
I just got back from a four day roll through Panamint Valley and Death Valley and figured I'd share the route that I planned out for anyone else looking to explore this amazing piece of wilderness on back roads and 4x4 trails.
I took 8 vehicles through about 400 miles total with only one flat...
I'm in the market for a tent trailer for my family. I'd prefer something from 1999 or newer, but I'm open to anything.
Anyone got a pop-up collecting dust that they want to unload?
King of the Hammers is coming up during the week of February 1st. Who's going?
I'll be there to spectate on Thursday for the Every Man Challenge and on Friday for the main event, then sticking around to do some wheeling with my buddy from Reno on Saturday.
I'd love to hang out if anyone wants...
A few weeks ago the AW4 in my 98 XJ occasionally started rapidly shifting between 3 and 4 at highway speeds. Yesterday it started doing it between 2 and 3 as well at lower speeds.
Swapped out TPS - no change
Unplugged TCU - Works exactly as expected
What should look at next?
I bought some of these Prothane rear bump stops for my XJ because the old factory ones were rolling over. The bump is too wide for the factory holes by about 1/2". Any ideas?
On my last trip to the mall I somehow got a rock smashed against my sway bar mount, bending it down and away from the center of the jeep.
I smacked the mount back into place (sort of), but now it interferes with the tie rod end on the drag link at full lock. I can't get the bar back in to the...
The latest episode of Xtreme Off-Road is all about the 2014 KOH race. It was just release online. Good stuff.

I'm tired of the Cleghorn/Arrowhead/Big Bear area, but I'm looking to do some day trips this summer.
What other non-desert trails are within an hour or two drive of OC?
I used to keep this Harbor Freight hand winch under the back seat of my XJ in case I ever got in a real pinch. Bought it about a year ago, never had to use it. I've seen them used to get people out of ditches or bend parts back into shape on the trail. Don't need it anymore since I never get...
Not just any fool can build a hybrid exo cage on his XJ, so I hired my friend Kalil to help me build one. He's new to Jeeps, but he's fabbed some really nice cages for his Ranger bros. Surely nothing can go wrong.
This design is definitely a compromise between added passenger safety and...
I have a craptacular Rough Country long arm kit and I just realized that my down travel in the front seems to be limited by the track bar hitting its axle side mount, rather than by binding in the radius arms.
Is there a way to fix this without getting a new track bar with tighter angles?
This rubber boot on my new Tom Wood's drive shaft was not meant to be. It got ripped apart on a rock and then melted to my muffler. Can I just cut it off or do I need to get another one?
Selling these for a friend. Tires have 6 months/~5,000 miles on them. Spare is brand new. Wheels are factory 16" TJ Rubicon Moabs, very clean. 5x4.5 pattern.
He wants $1,300. Located in Tustin.
When I plug my 1998 4.0 XJ into Magnaflow's website, it shows a front and rear cat even though my Jeep only has one.
FRONT Magnaflow 447104 Amazon $211.74
REAR Magnaflow 447206 Amazon $138.48
1998 seems to be a strange year for cats in the vendor catalogs.
Which one do I need? I'd...
