Thanks, yeah I'm a lot more aware of it. I've never been in a car accident, one car or otherwise before. I have wrecked motorcycles and walked away, limping but feeling better than the XJ. I wish I still had my 86, at least for the wreck...

Avoid Racine, but any of the small towns around it are fairly okay, as long as they're far enough that the crime doesn't reach them. And everyone down there thinks all of Milwaukee is like the Northside (ghetto) It's not, and some of the western burbs are pretty reasonable. A decent place in...

I'd love to but 6 grand, plus the gas to get back here? It's not in the budget right now.:)

My right hand was shot into my chest and it jammed the hell out of my index finger and thumb. It works, but not like it used to. For example, I now tie my shoes with my thumb and middle finger.

Okay, so we're not above drinking on a Sunday morning, but I don't drink and drive on a Sunday morning. We save that shit for Saturday night! Yeah, I was fine until the air bag went off and screwed up my hand. I had my right elbow resting on the arm rest and my right hand in front of me. I'm...

It wasn't tonight recently, it was two months ago in that hail storm recently. 4WD does nothing when you essentially hit ball bearings. I hit a giant light pole dead center on the front end. It just wrapped around the pole. To add insult to injury the light fell off the pole and caved in the...

At least after all the radiators, hood latches, door latches, another radiator, water pumps, and CPS I can still help in the OEM tech section. I'm still allowed here right? :(

So I recently totaled my much loved 98 sport. I now drive a brand new Honda Civic out of necessity. The problem is I have no intention of driving it through a Wisconsin winter. I need a new XJ or possibly Wrangler for winter, and probably need to start my winter project sooner rather than...

Okay, I've searched and can't find anything. I'm getting my winter Jeep ready and I remembered something that's bugging me. The center armrest rocks back and forth like it's loose. It has since 2000. I tried fixing it way back when, but have ignored it ever since. My Jeep has now reached...

His name is Rocky III, not the boxer the squirell, Rocky I died at 200K, it was an 86 pioneer.

Oh, and the details. 4.0 auto 107k, front shocks shot, exhaust shot (origenal). steering stabilizer shot, A/C shot, 2" budget boost saging, dents a plenty, AE rims 15X8 looking pretty coroded. Why did they stop making the XJ?

I'm on the fence again. Do I need a new drive shaft for the SYE. It seems like I will at least need the SYE. I also need new exhaust. It looks like at least 2500 in parts. Do I do it or buy a new Jeep? If I do this I'm keeping mine for a while obviously. I just think if I start this is...

And hey Ben where'd you get that brush guard? I want one.

I'm like a little kid on Christmas right now! Thanks guys.

Thanks guys, now I want 33's though. And yeah it would be cheaper to do it myself, but I don't have a place to do it right now. Last time was just a budget boost in the driveway. It's not a good time of year in Wisconsin for that.

I stand corrected, it is 3.5 and I was thinking the mono tube, just because they are the most expensive (the best?). I'm having my local shop install it and told them they will need to do tweeking for me after install, prob SYE, alingment, and new exhuast for good measure, mines rotted out.

So tomorrow my plan is to order a 3" RE with full spring pack and shocks. I know we all have our own opinions on lift kits, but I think I settled on this. Does anyone have any last minute advice for me? (sorry posted in wrong place at first)

It's a 98 so I'll have to give this a try, thanks.

Anyone else seen this. I have a cheap code reader, so that may not help. I'm not geting a check engine light, but i checked it because i'm going to emissions tonight. The reader has a P0320 (?), not P0320 (X), so I'm trying not to worry.
