    Who is from Florida???

    I am (after a whirlwind 9 year tour from Ga, to WA, to CO) moving back to the south. My girl and I both got great jobs in West Palm Beach. I know there isn't much as far as wheeling is concerned but thought I'd check to see if any members live that far down the line. I guess I can stop wedling...

    Anyone have experience with failing LCA Bushings?

    Got a clunk, like the d30 is loose. Mostly on bumps, turning, applying brakes. I did do a search and actually went through everything I could and didn't find anything. Searching for a clunk on this board brings up a LOT! I have gotten under with a large screwdriver and pushed and pryed on all...

    Troublshooting Steering issues

    I've got 4.5 inches of lift and a adjustable track bar. I seem to continue getting slop up front where I can feel it in my floor board as a slight clunking. I have put in a rebuilt steering box and power steering pump as they both needed to be replaced and it felt great for a couple of weeks but...

    WELDER Questions - Lincoln

    In my quest for bumper/tow points/fab equipment I decided to ask around and see who might have a used welder I could buy and for how much. I found someone with a used Lincoln MIG 110v? Probably the light duty 135 I think. Anyway they'll let me have it for $250 with everything all I need to get...

    Gang - need help getting to MOAB - TOW POINTS

    Realized that the one must have that I am missing to participate with everyone is tow points. I have been saving up for a bumper but time wise something like that won't be ready in time. I know that there are kits out there like rusty's but I don't want to spend HALF of what it would cost for a...

    Refinishing Tub - Rust Removal - SUGGESTIONS?

    Pulled the carpet up in the rear of the XJ for a couple reasons: 1) Put the rear Flares back on after trimming the fenders 2) When I lived in Seattle and the roads were frequently wet the rear carpet would get wet Low and behold the jeep was in a wreck before I owned it as the right rear...

    Steering Issues - 4.5 inch lift

    Got a rebuilt steering box about six months ago. The end on the axle side from the pitman arm has worn out twice and noticed the steering box is bad now (maybe it was before just now checked it). Not a problem as the box was rebuilt with warranty but I wonder if there is something wrong with my...

    Motor Mount Replacement

    Two questions: 1) need to replace my motor mounts and I wondered does anyone have product reccomendations? (M.O.R.E., etc.) 2) Can I just put wood under the oil pan and jack the block up a little from there or will I need a crane? Any insight would be appreciated!

    Quick Flare question

    I read through all the posts regarding trimming fenders and using tj flares or reusing xj flares but I don't see anything on reattaching them. It looks to me like the would have no room to drill. Do you just rivet these back on or is there something that I am missing?
