Ever since I bought my 98 Sport I've never been able to get the power door locks to work. They are always stuck on unless the fuse is removed. I swapped out both the door switches and no luck. Today I was replacing the dome light and figured out if I disconnect the RKE board that fixes it and...

I'm new to towing, so apologies for the noob questions. What do I need to tow an XJ? Specifically, how much towing capacity do I really need to tow an XJ? Curb weight is 3,300 so could I theoretically flat tow with at 3,500lb rated vehicle, right? If a tow dolly is 750 lbs, then could I tow with...

My old radio is falling apart, thinking of doing a Double DIN bezel upgrade and installing a Double DIN Screen/Nav System. Anyone have any recommendations of Nav Systems and in particular anything specifically good for off roading. If I'm happy with the system I'll probably install one in my car...

98 XJ. Drivers power window broke recently. The motor runs but the window just doesn't move so i know it's not an electrical problem. Opened up the door and pulled the mechanism. It looks like the white sheath that goes around the worm screw broke. Here is an image highlighting where If I...

98 XJ 160Kmi always had a little bit of a coolant leak but got worse over the weekend. It's been one of the hottest days of the year in LA and I've been driving around with A/C so probably have been stressing the system. It looks like it is coming from the lower radiator hose. About a year or...

Just bought a set of General Grabber ATX's. One thing I like about them is they have the 3 Peak Snowflake rating which will be good for trips to Mammoth and Big Bear. My research tells me that 3PMSF tires are better/more stringently tested than M+S tires for snow performance. However looking...

My 2" OME lift should be done tomorrow on my 98 XJ D30 and C8.25. Planning on getting some 30x9.5 tires next. To prevent any rubbing and just improve the stance overall I plan to get these 1" wheel spacers too...

I'm trying to save money on wheels and came up with a kinda out there idea and wanted to see of anyone else has tried it. Do you guys know what vehicles out there came stock with simmilar wheel specs as our XJs? I'd like some wheels with a little less backspacing. I'd like my wheels to stick...

Finally decided to go ahead and pull the trigger on an OME 2-3" Lift Kit. Unfortunately, the OME lift only comes with the key components; Front/Rear Springs, and Shocks, nothing else (which is kinda a bummer for how much it costs). Additionally, I got a set of bushings for the leafs, new set of...

Has anyone purchased California Trail Map? https://www.californiatrailmap.com/ What do you think? $25 for a year of updates, $35 for lifetime. Seems kinda steep nowadays with Google and the internet, but it looks like a really good/accurate solution to give you info about the trails out there...

Hello, I'm looking for a stock Alum 15x7 wheel for a 98 XJ. Only need one. I would like to get a second spare tire that I can rotate out with the others. Bolt Pattern: 4.5 Inch/Offset: 31.75mm https://www.originalwheels.com/jeep-wheels/cherokee1998rims.php

Apologies since this has been probably asked before. 98 XJ Upcountry looking to get it lifted, was going to do 2", now thinking biting the bullet and going to 3" I do a lot of freeway driving and this is more of an overlander vehicle so that is why I am not going crazy with the lift. 31" is the...

Naughty Naughty, I wonder if it's a member? https://www.liveleak.com/view?t=9vLAe_1537988199

I have an 98 XJ with Upcountry suspension and 235/75R15 street tires. I'm hoping that by getting fender flares and trimming I can fit at least 30x10.5" A/T's comfortably without having to adjust the bumpstops. I do a lot of freeway driving and am trying to hold off on the lift/too much tires for...

I'm currently replacing the front bumper on my 98 XJ. I've suspected I have a bit of a vacuum leak (cruise control can't keep up under heavy load, sometimes the A/C switches to defrost), so I figured I might as well replace the vacuum canister behind the bumper while I have it off. I searched...

Bought an ARB Bullbar and a winch. Do you guys have any suggestions on how to lift up the bumper to install it? Shipping info says the bumper is 170lbs and the winch is another 70. I have a jack but it'll probably be dicey balancing it on that. Saw a lift table at harbor freight for 180...

Hi I have a 98 XJ Sport with Upcountry package so it comes with at 1" lift from the factory but otherwise is stock, right now it has 29" street tires with no trimming and no rubbing. I am ready to put some money into it. Looking at getting a bull bar front bumper and a winch (est $1500) and...

Do you guys have any suggestions for hitches that are available these days? I have a Curt 13084 (CURT 13084 Class 3 Trailer Hitch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00075XCV2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_PPo.AbJDHTT6D) but I don't like how the hitch mount hangs down under the crossbar. It reduces my departure...

Hi, I got a 98 XJ with a 4 speed automatic AW4 transmission. I bought it a year and a half ago and it has 160k on it, I don't know the last time the transmission fluid and filter has been changed so I figure I should get around to doing it myself. Looking on Quadratec there are multiple kits...

I had a leaky radiator that I replaced recently. There was a minor pinhole leak in one of the fins, debated trying to spray it something or fix it for a while, but then just decided it would be easier to replace it. I'm a bit of a tinkerer and now that it's replaced, I'm trying to think if...
