Well, this sucks! I sure hope someone will step up and want to run for pres, vp, and bod. I understand how everyone is so busy lately, I would help out but it don't know if it'll be a conflict of interest with my position in NE4WI? How many members are there in NAC? Mark

Damnit, I looked around all afternoon for the NAXJA tent. Now I know why I couldn't find it. I didn't meet anyone but I did see Tekka on the ramp, right after that killer tj. I was parked right next to the NE4WI tent and had quite a few people stop and comment about my jeep. I heard lots of...

Well, I'll be running the rock garden between 1 and 3 so I better see some of you XJ guys up there kicking butt!!! See you sunday! Mark Bettez NE4WI Treasurer

Has anyone here thought of joining NEA4WD? I'm not sure how all the separate chapters work? It'd be a great thing for those of you up here to have access to all the info available from NEA4WD. There are many new trails and many old trails that need work and wheeling. Just wondering if anyone...

sounds good to me, the more the merrier!

I will be at the Rally. I'll probably be at the NE4WI table or helping out Marty. I'll try and stop by the NAXJA table and say hi! See you guys there! Mark Bettez NE4WI Treasurer

Anyone have any input on these? There actually for my yj but since this is naxja I'll just say they're for my cherokee, hehe. I'm looking at the 36x13.5x15s. Thanks

no, I do not have abs, brake fluid is all new. I installed braided lines with the lift kit, all new pads/rotors/drums/shoes, replaced the fluid and properly bled (many times to be sure this wasn't the problem). I understand stopping distance would be less but I would think it should sill be...

I've searched a bit, can't find an answer, and need to fix this soon. Should my 00 XJ with 32" tires be having a problem stopping? I can't lock up the tires even if I step on the pedal as hard as I can. Also, the brakes heat up and start to fade rather quickly. I have brand new pads and...

just like he said. The key is to lower the engine so you have enough room to move around in there. Don't use a standard socket because you will strip the bolt, have to drop the engine/tranny/xfer together and grind off the head of the stupid bolt. Why, oh why did jeep use those damn...

really quite easy. 1. Remove the outer nut on the end of the shaft before you remove the belt. Simply unplug the compressor, connect the wire from the compressor to the + of the battery to engage the clutch and use the belt tension to hold the pulley while you remove the nut. If the clutch...

my problem turned out to be the clutch. I got a deal on a new clutch from a friend who works at a dealer. The clutch was very easy to change. It took about 20 minutes and 10 of those minutes was spent looking for my gear puller. The A/C stays running now and the jeep gets icy cold! :roll...

ok, I brought the jeep to the dealer and had them fix the cam sensor issue. It cost me 60 bucks because that's what the dealer charges and they don't believe in 1/2 hour charges :thumbdn: . Either way, they found the sensor was off -7 degrees. The jeep runs great now and the gas mileage is...

ok, I have no knowledge of how this system works. I have read what is in the repair manual and basically it says that if you pull it out, don't move the crank, and drop it back it your all set. Since I pulled the sensor from one motor and placed it in a different motor I have no clue if the...

The ground on the A/C pump wire is continuous (OC) with the negative on the battery and the positive (switched) wire to the A/C pump is a constant 13.5 volts whether the clutch is engaged (first 15 minutes of opperation) or disengaged after it overheats. There is no continuity between the...
