I have a situation that seems to happen when hot and only when the AC is on. The idle is @ 1500rpm and actually increases to @ 2000 when I apply the brakes. The transmission is still pushing away until the jeep is almost stoped, then the idle drops to normal. Turn the AC off and all is normal. I...

A few months back there was a thread regarding changing differential fluid. One post mentioned using an additive if you have a limited slip. I have a dented cover on my 8.25 and am going to replace it. I have a 99 with a limited slip. What does the additive do? Does the dealer put this in when...

I saw an add for a scrambler the other day. It was described as "bobbed". What does that mean? Thanks :huh:

Can anyone point me in the direction of a site where I can look up the VIN # for a 1979 Cherokee? Thanks Eric :geek:

Is there a brand/type of spray paint that works well touching up banged up powdercoating? I suppose regular ol black will work fine for my needs, but I thought I would ask anyway. Thanks :cheers:

I will need new tires soon. Current set up is @ 2.5" lift with 30s. I noticed no difference when I went to the 30s. Spedo was fine too. Anyone running 31s with 3.55 gears? How is it? I'm not sure I want to spend any money to regear the Dana 30. I'm not sure I can buy new tires, wheels and dana...

1999 XJ It looks like the easy way to remove the # 1 spark plug is to remove the large hose that runs over the top of it first. My questions: If I unclamp the hose from where it attaches to the block (front of engine) is fluid going to flow out of there or is the hose empty when the engine is...

Hello, I have a 99 with a 2.5 inch lift. I am planning to break the 3" barrier, 4.5 most likely. I am working on my plan for the driveline. An Atlas transfer case is an option for me, however I am concerned with the install and how the twin sticks fit. I want to know how much of the center...

I am begining to realize (the hard way) I should get some rocker guards before things get too ugly. I am ordering them this week but am having trouble making a decisiond on where to go. I think I am close to a decision but It seems everyone claims to have the best. Rusty, Custon 4X4, Durango...

most mornings, my 99 with 68K miles makes one of those difficult to describe noises for 10 to 30 seconds. I finally traced it to the distributor. while the noise is happening, i can feel a vibration when touching the cap. The vibration stops when the noise stops. I figure I will replace the cap...

What size air compressor and tank should I consider? I want to be able to run an impact wrench, grinders, basically all the usual tools. Any brands to stay away from? Thanks

Frequently, when I turn off the engine there is a quick grinding type of noise. The fan perhaps? Anyone ever experience this noise? It is a 99, auto, 4.0, 68K miles

Hello, I am going to put a lighter in the rear area so I can plug in an electric cooler. What are the specs on the type of wire to use for a long run? The cooler I am looking at draws 3 amps. Thanks Eric:us:

I have a 99 XJ, automatic. A noise has developed. It does not appear to be from the belt but rather from the rear passenger side of the engine compartment.(although I could be mistaken) It usually works itself out after a few minutes - before I can track it down. The noise is difficult to...
