    XJ radiators, a review.

    Any update on how the Champion BC1193 is working out? They are local to me and I’m considering driving over to talk to them.

    XJ radiators, a review.

    CleanEG, can you share more on how you fabbed up the fan shroud for the SPAL? I too have the TYC fan and I suspect it is not doing it's job. Seems like it doesn't run properly. I ordered up the KSuspension fan switch harness and would like to upgrade to a SPAL in place of the TYC.

    Tie Rod Roll/Death Wobble with 1 ton Ironman4x4fab steering...

    Yeah, so when I ordered the kit from Andy I added on his version of the anti roll washers. Looking at the video, I don’t see those washers...I’m wondering if the place that did the install forgot to put them on... I do intend on adding a stabilizer but not as a fix for the DW. Something is...

    Tie Rod Roll/Death Wobble with 1 ton Ironman4x4fab steering...

    Spoke with Andy at Ironman earlier today. Dude never fails to deliver awesome customer service, taking time to answer all my questions no matter how dumb they might be. Hopefully I get this figured out this week.

    Tie Rod Roll/Death Wobble with 1 ton Ironman4x4fab steering...

    Backstory: had the Ironman4x4fab one ton steering system, steering brace, track bar, track bar cross brace, track bar drop bracket and sway bar drop installed along with the adjustable short arms, adjustable rear shackles and relocation bracket. Everything was awesome, steering was tight with...

    Thor Cowl Noise Help

    Yep. I have Hylines, they are awesome. I have no overheating issues or heat soak problems, etc. I run a Scangauge 2 to monitor things and the intake air temps during summer last year were very high. Prior to the Thor intake I never had temp issues. Once I put that intake on I noticed during...

    Thor Cowl Noise Help

    I realize the intake air temp reading from the computer may not be the most accurate but still. Pull the data and see for yourself.

    Source for a quality flex plate?

    So, my ‘01 has the flex plate knock. I tightened down the bolts which helped for a bit but it’s back. Based on what I’ve read here I’m betting the holes are ovaled out and/or the plate is cracked. I figured I’d just buy a new plate now and head it off at the pass before the thing takes a dump...

    Thor Cowl Noise Help

    So, I tried opening up the cowl more by mounting the River Raider snorkel cap over the Thor filter. It helped a little, but not enough for my liking. I did try adapting the River Raider snorkel system to the XJ but it didn’t work out, which is probably why they don’t offer it as a kit for the...

    Thor Cowl Noise Help

    Oh, and I wasn’t impressed by the intake air temps with the Thor. That metal tube running right over the top of the motor just gets cooked. I even tried header wrap on it, which helped some but temps still got crazy high in summer with stop and go traffic. Then there’s cleaning the cone...

    Thor Cowl Noise Help

    I had the same issue. I tried all sorts of stuff, finally traced it down to the throttle body. I ultimately went to a K&N, the Thor was just too damn noisy for a daily driver. The K&N has a whistle to it but it’s much, much less noticeable because it’s not echoing in the cowl and thus...

    Has anyone successfully installed the River Raider intake kit?

    Seems like it’s not worth the trouble to try to shoehorn this system in. Shame, because i do like the overall design and the construction of the parts seems to be very good. I’ll look into the cabin air filter idea. Thank you everyone!

    Has anyone successfully installed the River Raider intake kit?

    As the title says, has anyone had any luck with this system? I have their universal kit in hand and I’m stumped. I figured I could mount the air filter box using the lower half of the factory air cleaner box as a base, but am unable to visualize a way to route everything. If anyone has this...

    Rocktech Offroad

    Hey folks, anyone have experience with this shop? They are a couple miles from me and seem to have good reviews but I was hoping someone here has personal experience. Is their pricing fair? I have a slew of parts coming this week from Ironman4x4 and was considering having a shop do some of...

    Throttle Body sensor help!

    Well, thankfully the new sensor did come with new bolts as well! What I did learn from reading old threads here and other forums is the steel bolts and aluminum housing have a tendency to fuse badly due to the difference in metals coupled with lots of time. One guy, who said he’s a boat...

    Craigslist 1999 XJ - where to start

    How much old gas is left? If it’s a quarter tank or less I’d probably just fill up with fresh on top and throw in a can of sea foam. That’s what I did with mine when I pulled it out of storage with about a quarter tank. I ran another couple cans of sea foam through the engine after I burned...
