I am considering getting a set of Rusty's flexy-flares for my XJ. Not that I've had any problems with the law running flare-less, I just would like to keep my Jeep a little cleaner while driving in the rain, never mind wheeling. I also messed up my quarter panel pretty bad due to my own...

First thing is, I don't want to run flares. I've never had a problem with the law here, and I hate the look of flares on my XJ. I had Bushwackers for a week, and took them off. I've cut-n-folded my rears and the passenger side looks fine, but the driver side came out terrible, especially after...

Well yesterday I went ahead and started prepping for my lower quarter panels and went ahead and bed lined it. I used Duplicolor with the roll-on kit. I spent awhile on prep and decided to use a sanding wheel with my angle grinder to speed things up. Where there was surface rust, I took it to...

Well my seat bracket broke once again. I think the solution to my problem would probably be to drop some el-bee's, but I'd like something stronger for wheeling too. I want to put some baja seats in the XJ, but everywhere I look sells seat "adapters" but not a seat bracket. So that means I need...

I am going to be bedlining my lower doors and quarter panels, as soon as I replace my rocker panel this week. I had cut and folded my rear fenders, and cut the fronts. When I folded the rears, the paint had chipped and left bare metal, which is now rusting. My question is what's the best way to...

I am going to be sanding down my lower doors, and my lower quarter panels along with the lips of my fenders to apply bedliner. What do you suggest I do as far as prep? I want to keep the paint up until the lip of the fender, where the paint is already chipping away due to trimming the fenders. I...

Picked these plates up from quadratec about 2 weeks ago. They are made from Warrior Products and offer a aluminum diamond plate in chrome or black, and 12 gauge satin black steel. I went with the steel for obvious reasons. Kit included 12 plates ranging from your front fender, front and rear...

I am running a WJ front driveshaft in the rear of my XJ, and have no shaft up front now. I am trying to decide what will suit as a front shaft? I am lifted 4.5" but sitting around 6". Just wondering what you guys are running up front. Does the stock front shaft work just fine, or is it too short?

Well I've had the lift on since about September or so and the Jeep still doesn't sit level. I really can't stand the raked look of the Jeep and need to do something about it. I have the Rubicon Express 4.5" lift. I am thinking of putting coil spacers up front to help level it out. I have 2...

I am still getting vibes at all speeds, and it sounds worse on acceleration. I shimmed my rear 4* and have yet to adjust the front pinion angle. I have two BRAND NEW custom shafts in, front and rear. I know they are pictures so it may be hard to tell, but let me know what you think of the...

Both my yokes on my transfer case (231) seem to have some play. I get some vibes at high speeds and rotating clunks at low speeds. I have two brand new drive shafts in and my pinion angles are pretty much dead on. How can I tighten them up? Is it common for the nut to come loose, or more than...

Just picked this up a few weeks ago. It's the Rusty's prerunner bumper. I couldn't find any comments on the bumper from anyone, and the pictures I have seen, I didn't find it too attractive. After installation, it's starting to grow on me. Plus it's a winch bumper which will be installed soon...

Just put the Rubicon Express 4.5" Superflex kit on my XJ. The back is sitting significantly higher than the front. Will the springs settle and the Jeep sit level? How long does it usually take for them to full settle? The way they sit now, is it possible they will stay at that height? I just...

Got around to trimming the fenders yesterday and cleaned them up pretty well, if I say so myself. Deburred the rough edge, hit the bare metal edge with some paint, and got lucky finding this trim. Found it at Pep Boys (the only thing I've ever found that I needed at that place, besides air...

Evening guys, Just got done putting a Rubicon Express 4.5" Superflex kit on my XJ. Full leaves in the rear, adjustable upper and lower arms, heavy duty tracbar and bracket. Now that I installed it, I am trying to work out some issues I have. First a little background on my XJ. It's a 99 Sport...

A few weeks ago I noticed a pretty weird clicking noise coming from the front end, looked all over and couldn't notice anything. Still don't know for sure what it is, but I suspect it's the brakes. I had a friend who I trust to an extent tell me to turn the hex socket ontop of my steering box...

I did the chalk line trick and it seemed to work, but I still think my pressure is too low. 99XJ pretty much stock with a lift, no bumpers, winch, etc. I have 32x11.50x15 BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A. I am at about 25 PSI on each of the tires, it's my daily driver? Input, suggestions?

If you can, please get me a measurement from the center of your wheel to the bottom of your flare. Just comparing the height I am at now to that kit. Front and rear, if possible. Very much appreciated!

Alright guys, I'll tell you a little about myself. Been lurking this forum and some others for awhile now. My names Andrew and like many of you, I am a Jeep addict. I've had an XJ, a YJ, a TJ, a WJ, and a CJ7. I finally settled down and went for the hands down best - the XJ. Now I want to start...

I'm about to bolt it back in and fill her up. What a pain it was getting it out, had to drop the crossmember, and take the exhaust off in order to manuver it out with the dipstick attached. Finally got it out, and seperated the two, cleaned the o-ring and bolted the half back to the firewall...
