    Hose identification problem

    96 XJ 4.0L The hose coming out of the upper (smaller) outlet of my thermostat housing needs to be replaced. For some reason, auto shops can't identify or replace it for me. It's not the hose that goes to the radiator, it's the smaller, longer one that runs from the thermostat housing to (I...

    Speedo jumps, throttle cuts out. Have replaced TPS.

    Boy, I sure seem to have a lot of issues recently. Today on the way home from work my speedometer started jumping up randomly. When I started my hill climb home on the interstate, the throttle started completely cutting out and then coming back on repeatedly, very quickly, along with the speedo...

    96 XJ - engine died on highway, cranks, doesn't turn over.

    96 XJ I was on the highway at normal operating temp, hit the button to turn off cruise control (coincidence maybe), and my engine died. Electronics all stayed on. Pulled over and tried to start up. The starter cranks good and hard, but the engine never turns over. I messed with my shifter...

    High altitude, and I can't stop overheating at speed!

    People in this thread have been helpful, but I'm wondering if my rocky mountain bros would be of greater assistance here. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has had this problem in Colorado. Anyway, I overheat at high speed going uphill on the highway when it's 70 degrees or warmer outside...

    RadiatorBarn.com out of business?

    I was working with them to get a refund after going through the RMA process with them - in April, James said they'd cut me a check. I never received it, they stopped responding to email, and now their website redirects to getallparts.com! I was irritated that my first radiator was defective...

    Need shock suggestions

    96 XJ with 3.5" rubicon express leaf springs. My too-old, too-short Rancho shocks gotta go. They're model RS5129, which according to the spec sheet extend to 20". Sitting at ride height, it's at 20". Which means they're fully extended. I need good on-road comfort with moderate offroad...

    XJ still overheats - have overhauled everything.

    My jeep has always had an overheating problem. It overheats when running uphill on the interstate at 70mph, and it overheats when crawling. Basically, anytime it's warm and the engine is working hard at high speeds, or working moderately hard at low speeds I've replaced the water pump...

    Good jack for changing larger tires?

    Not much mud in Colorado, probably not a whole lot of need for a Hi-Lift on my Cherokee. But I do have 31" tires and a 3" lift. What worries me is blowing a tire and not being able to mount the spare with the stock jack! Is there a good compact jack someone can recommend which is easy to stow...

    New wheels + tires = rubbing :(

    Hey folks - '96 XJ with a 3" Rancho lift, 31x10.5 BFG AT tires. I was using stock aluminum wheels (the ones that look like someone went crazy with a hole saw) and everything was fine, except they rubbed the Rancho control arms at full lock. I went out and bought some Cragar soft 8 wheels...

    How to stop death wobble when it's happening?

    TL;DR - when experiencing death wobble on the road, how do I stop the shaking while I'm in the vehicle? 96 XJ, 3" Rancho lift I figured this was close enough to stock, and a generic question, that it belonged in the OEM forum. I have a bad death wobble, most often when I hit the brakes at...
