    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    No, I didn't keep anything. I wanted to keep it all, but I couldn't find space to keep it. Then I offered it up on the board here, but nobody wanted it. Some junkyard got a good deal.

    Not sure what you mean - what bumper?

    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    Basically, I just kept saying No, not good enough, what’s the next step? The first time the adjuster went through this long process of walking me through the numbers – Here’s the base retail value ($1845), here’s the existing damage to your jeep before the wreck right side, left side, roof...

    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    FYI, settled for $1710 today. As others have said, never take their first offer. I might could have pushed for more but only a few hundred and with a lot more work.

    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    Getting my insurance company invovled is a good suggestion, and several people have made it. The problem is that I'm afraid I won't get much support there. My company is AIG (now called 21st century, funny how they change their name just when their parent got famous for going broke), and I...

    They're paying storage :). That's the one thing in my favor.

    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    Both of you are making a good point, and that's what is at the heart of our insurance claim problems usually, but this case is a little different. First, this isn't MY insur co - it's the other guy's, because the wreck was his fault. In fact, it's kind of funny how it happened, according to...

    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    Naw, other guy's fault, but the frame is messed up. Otherwise, there's not that much damage. He hit me on the right rear corner at 40-50 MPH (I was sitting still, waiting to turn) so he tore up the wheel and axle and hatchback and body panels. Very little mechanical. But because of the frame, I...

    trying to fight the usual insurance company rip-off

    Well, the insurance company (Progressive Auto Ins) is jerking me around over my XJ, so I’m going to try to take them to arbitration. I’m posting up here to see if any of you guys can suggest some good arguments that I should make or help me find some facts online to support my arguments (such as...

    can't get electrical connector to open

    Well, I busted off two little pieces before I could see the one more tooth down low that was holding it together, then once I lifted that last tooth it was easy to open. Now when I put it back together that one last tooth is the only thing holding it together, but that should be enough to work...

    green liquid?

    Could be a big slimy louie - there's a touch of green there sometimes. Okay, I'll be first to stop picking on OP and actually try to help. Yes it's anti-freeze, and unless it has been doing this regularly, it's about a 50-50 chance your water pump is about to fail and need replacing. If it's...

    can't get electrical connector to open

    I've got one of those plug-in electrical connector thingies that I just an't get open. There was an orange latch piece on it that threaded between teeth. I've slid that piece out and now the teeth appear to be free to move, but the thing won't open and doesn't feel like it is giving at all...

    for sale only for paying naxja members?

    Sorry, I haven’t been all that active here so I haven’t kept up with the rules. I’m fine with that rule, it makes sense. I’m just glad ya’ll have let us non-paying guests participate in the tech forums, they have been a big help to me from time to time, but I wouldn’t be here if it were a...

    for sale only for paying naxja members?

    Is the For Sale (private parties) forum only for paying naxja members? I've looked through the rules and I don't see any rule saying that, but when I try to post there it won't let me - except the message is confusing, saying something about waiting for the moderator to approve something.

    damage from wreck

    Hmmm, slim pickings around Memphis area for 91-95 cherokees - not many in other years even. Haven't heard back from the insur co but the more I read, the more sure I am the frame is going to be toast with that kind of hit. Wow, this really sucks. Anybody interesting in buying a 1992...
