Reset the pcm (battery disconnect/ground/lights on off/etc), great since. On a different note, my POS Magnaflow cat is bad.

Have an issue w/ my 99. Been running like poo for quite a while. Bad (well, worse than normal) mileage, no power, etc. Past week, replaced the exhaust manifold (old one was cracked), O2 sensors (oem), plugs, wires, distributor, rotor, air filter, valve cover breathers/hoses, manifold gasket...

Thx Trent!

Anyone have one laying around that is in decent shape? Just the bottom is fine. I'm up north - FTC area.

Hey all. I figure it's worth asking the crew for ideas before I start ripping things apart. 99 XJ, 4.0 (20k on rebuild), 231 (6 pinion planetary, jb sye, wide chain), d30 (4.56 & trutrac), 8.25 (4.56 & trutrac), aw4, 20k on timken wheel bearings, 20k on axles, 10k on CV driveshafts, 10k on...

Thanks!

I need a new hole plug/cover for the large round hole to the right of the driver side tail light. Any idea what this piece is called?

Their second video was great. Really interesting thinking about the fluid get caught up on corners/edges - which leads to heat. If they do sell one, I bet it works better than what is on the market.

PAC is the answer. I've been through OME, RE, Rusty's, MetalJoke and Currie. I waited several months for my PAC's - totally worth it.

Had this same issue haunt my XJ for 18 months. It was the coil.

$155 is foolish. They are a $100 product.

Agree on the initials/logos being cut into parts. I won't buy them. And, flat bill hats are gay indicators. When I was a kid, kids got beat up for such.

They raised the price.

Figured I'd update this with the fix. It was the coil. When I rebuilt this engine (16k ago), I replaced every sensor/component with OEM parts except for the coil. I used a Napa Echlin (sp?) coil. All of my tests pointed toward it so I pulled it off and tested it. Failed both the primary and...

Out of my low mileage 99. D30 shafts have newish (8k miles Spicer u-joints) 8.25 shafts have ZJ studs (bit longer than stock) bc I upgraded to discs. $20 for the 30s, $20 for the 8.25s.
