    -27 Celcius and no heat in my '95, ugghh...

    Hey guys, I've had my '95 into the shop twice to get the heat issue looked at - they've flushed the coolant system and replaced the blower motor. The motor was shot and squeaking like crazy, so that was an easy diagnosis for them. The coolant flush showed A LOT of rust and crud in the system...

    Any differences between '95 and '96 my?

    I'm just curious if there are any differnces in the model years from 1995 to 1996? I'm actually starting to look into buying an imported RHD XJ from Japan to be used as my daily driver. The the laws in Canada specify you have to wait until the vehicle is 15+ years old, and they measure right...

    Any larger than stock gas tanks out there?

    So far I've found a company in Australia that makes a 125 litre one for $700.00 AUD, but it would cost about the same in shipping charges to get it over here. Anyone use a company that's a bit closer or less expensive?

    Hood lift assist?

    I thought I saw the product on the board somewhere, but I've been looking and can't seem to find it. Does anyone have a link to the supplier that makes the lift-assist mechanism for the hood?

    Trailer hitch spare tire carrier?

    Alright, a while ago I started a thread on rear bumpers and all the different companies that make them for our XJ's. How about a list of companies that make tire carriers that fit into a standard 2" trailer hitch receiver? It seems to be a good option for those of us that have more than one...

    Better gas mileage with 4.88's vs 4.56's???

    I just wanted to get everyone's opinion on a statement I just read on another forum. This is what he said: I'm running 33 inch tires with 4:56 gears and if I could do it over I would have went with the 4:88s. The guys I know running 4:88s and 33s are actually getting better mileage. I'm...

    I've looked a little bit, but couldn't find a list of companies that build bumpers for our XJ's. Can we start a good list? JCROffroad T&T

    Changing gearign with a locker...

    Alright, I'm not sure how or where to look this up, so I'll just ask. I have an auto tranny '98 with the Crys. 8.25 rear, and stock gearing. A few years ago I put a Detroit in the rear. I have since put a lsrger lift and 33's on the Jeep. What do I have to look at to determine if I can just...

    Steering box gone south...

    Well, I've got my '98 in a shop doing some odds and ends for me after I've got about 95% of my RE 4.5" kit finished, and the steering box is dead and leaking all over the place. So, I wouldn't mind getting a new box from an NAXJA vendor, but I'm curious if I should also look into getting a...

    Drop pitman for RE 4.5" lift?

    I'm installing the Rubicon Express 4.5" kit on my '98 XJ right now, and when I bought it the vendor said I wouldn't need to have a drop pitman on it. After installing the 4 front links yesterday, the sterring felt as if it was binding already, and the axle was "maybe" as low as normal ride...

    Source for poly bushings?

    Since i'm tearing off my skid plate and cross member for the tranny, i'm looking at my rubber bushing under there with all the cracks in it and thinking it might be the time to replace it... Any good 'n cheap online sources that anyone has had good luck with in the past?

    Removing tranny cross member?

    I have no idea why this thing is so hard to take off, but it's proving to be a serious PITA!! I've got an after market skid plate for the t-case, and it's bolted to the cross member with 3 carriage bolts. I don't know if this is causing interference or what. How "exactly" is the cross...

    Replacement suspension bolts?

    Any source where they are relatively inexpensive? I'm looking to replace all the control arm bolts as well as the leaf spring bolts. I went to moparpartz.com and they want 5.75 per bolt, and 4.25 per nut. On top of that, it would be another 20 bucks for shipping... Does anyone know of a...

    Installing RE boomerang shackles...

    I've got some boomerang shaped shackles for my '98 XJ and there's no picture of how they are supposed to be installed. Is the "elbow" or bend in the shackle supposed to be pointing toward the rear or the front?

    Proper Spark Plug gap?

    So i was out driving around yesterday and heard this completely brutal sound from the 'ole XJ... Turns out that the 1 cylinder spark plug was no longer screwed into the block. I took them out a few weeks back while checking to see if there was any water in the engine and it must have gotten...

    4.0 Reading Low oil pressure??

    It seems like every time i'm waiting at a light, or just in Park sitting and idling, the low pressure warning light comes on and my gauge is reading zero. I just got the oil changed today, so i'm not sure it the overall oil level was low or what. But this warning light was coming on a lot trhis...

    ZJ = XJ Suspension parts interchangeable?

    I've got a '98 XJ, got a friend looking for a light trail rig. I'm going to be going for a larger than current (3") lift on mine and would like to sell him the old lift for his rig, when he buys it. If he ends up with a ZJ will the 3" Skyjacker kit swap right to a similar year as my '98 XJ?
