It's time for me to clean out the garage of parts that I no longer have a use for. I am selling a left and right door for a 2 door Jeep CherokeeXJ. Great to replace those beat up dors on your 2 door Cherokee or trail rig. Both red, asking $75.00 each Left door is a crank window type with solid...

Hey guys, It's been a little while since I last posted. I've spent about a year and a half chasing better mileage with a Subaru outback after my '87 Laredo went up in a blaze. Well, I was recently broadsided in the little 'baru and it's totaled. It was a good car, but not everything. I've...

Hi Guys, My 1996 4.0 MT (178K) has developed a starting problem. I went out this evening to hook up my trailer to the XJ and the XJ didn't want to fire. The first few times, I just got a clickin sound and thought the battery was gone. then she started to turn over, but wouldn't fire. If I...

How hard would it be to re-key an XJ? As some of you know, I have been looking around for an MJ or XJ to replace my burnt up '87. My mechanic has had an '89 Laredo out back for a little over a year now. I asked him about it, and was told that the owner had left it there and wasn't...

...till it's gone. Well, it has been almost 3 months since my XJ went up in flames. She was a well used 1987 Cherokee Laredo, 2-door, with a block heater, and rear tire carrier. In an attempt to be frugal, facing an almost 80 mile round trip commute to work, I purchased a used '98 Subaru...

Well, My 4wd XJ is no more. All I have right now is my wifes 96 2wd Sport, and winter is comming. Just throwing a post out there to see if anyone in the NE, knows of a 4wd MJ or XJ that may be available (standard tranny preferred). Don't have much to spend, maybe 3k. Thanks

Hey guys, I was driving down the highway today and started pulling onto an off ramp when my steering wheel seemed to lock up and wouldn't move. It was only for a few seconds and everything was fine the rest of the way home. I pulled the wheel hard and got steering back, but it was quite...

Any NAXJA members know about Viper Alarms?, I am trying to get my 1980 MGB back on the road and the viper alarm keeps going off. I need to recharge the battery (it's got a slow drain), so it may have re-set itself. The alarm is currently giving me 4 quick LED flashes. Key chain will stop the...

I have some BB lift components that I do not plan to use. These were on a rig for about 1 year. RRO Lift Shackles (approx 1.5" lift): $35 RRO 2" Poly coil spacers: $20.00 They are part of a RRO 2" budget lift. I do not have the rear .5" lift block. Prices do not include shipping.

He guys, I am at a sort of crossroads with my 87 XJ. I pulled the carpet in preperation for herculiner and found rust in the drivers side floor board. Cleaned it up today and cut most of it out. the results: The first signs: I put a white sheet of paper in the "frame" rail on this one...

does anyone know how to convert/capture an image from an avi file and save it as a jpg? I borrowed my mothers digital camera to take a pic of a friends 88 waggy with MARPAT paint scheme, bushwackers, and 32's. It was set for movies and now I have a short 5 second movie of his XJ, and can't...

I hope this is OK for the NAC section, I was preping my XJ for some herculiner and found this under a rivited patch: I patched this last year as a temporary fix before my inspection, and these were just pinholes at that time. A year later, and needing to replace the radiator, expansion...

Don't know if this has been posted here, but this video hurts. Kind of funny at first, but then they go and destroy it. what a waste... http://www.neufamily.org/hosted%20stuff/tierodiscrazy.wmv

Earlier this year I picked up a slightly used lift to put under my '87 2 door Laredo (D35 rear). It is the Rocky Road Trailblzer 4" kit that uses OME med duty springs and a RR budget boost with shackles and spacers. My thoughts are to just use the OME springs, adjustable track bar, and sway...

I just heard on the radio this morning that a gunman shot and killed Damage Plan's "Dimebag" Darryl (formerly of Pantera) on stage last night. Others were shot as well. I can't find anything on the news as of yet. I think they were playing near Flint, Michigan. Anyone hear about it? EDIT...

My 1996 Sport 4.0L (164,000 miles) makes a slight whirring (as best as I can describe it) sound when taking tight turns. I figured it was an extra load being placed on the power steering since I was hitting near full lock. Reciently the sound has started to continue even after I finish my...

hi all, I had posted earlier that My 87 4.0 (enclosed cooling system) has not been getting up to running temperature and is hovering around 140. I did a quick check by running the engine at idle and lightly squeezing the upper radiator hose. It remained cool and soft until the temp reached...

I reciently picked up a set of used OME springs that came off a 96 with the 8.25 rear. These are going to go on my 87 with a D35. I know that the diameters are different, and am wondering if I need to use different sized U-bolts. From what I have read in searching suggests that axle size may...

Is there a way I can test the temperature gauge on my '87 4.0? For about the past 3 weeks, the temp gauge on the dash doesn't read above what would be the 140F mark. I'm not sure if it is the dash gauge or a real problem. I haven't noticed any real driving issues or odd smells. Two...
