I gotta be blunt and honest. If you don't have cash to buy it, you can't afford it. Borrowing money is bad, the credit score era is a sham. Yes, I am a Dave Ramsey advocate. This covid year has hurt a lot of people who said they could afford it...that is, until you lose your job. Keep saving...

X2 on 50/50 acetone/trans mix. saw the studies have used it for a couple yrs

Sweeeet.

Nice work!! I am the same...gotta speak up if it's not fair. I root for the under dog. I choose right over wrong...even if it ends up costing me(monetarily or otherwise). Atleast I will be able to sleep better.

Dang...so sorry! Good luck on the WJ

DJ, How is the lift? I am looking at ome springs....already have 3in lift, so am looking at swapping springs & need new shocks. Anybody try rocky-road shocks with ome springs? Looks like $811 for 4in kit.

Thanks for serving us. RIP

I haven't tried them, but some people install the hood vents. Sounds like they have success. I'm going to try a bottle of waterwetter coolant additive for this summer. My entire coolant system is rebuilt....main fan is stock with new clutch tho. If 90 degrees here in Missouri, my stock guage...

Mine's a 99 with a skycrapper 3" lift. Only has a tcase drop. Does great.

My bad....I didn't include a big stipulation. You would be dinged the tax and fees if you left your job(voluntarily or fired) if loan is not paid back in a certain period of time(not sure what that time period is). Still not a good idea to borrow....the ira's in your 401k plan should be...

XJ's are a hobby vehicle....not an investment. We do it because we love it. That's part of the price we pay. As far as borrowing on IRA's....don't ever do it. You pay your tax rate(20-25% depending on your income) on the money you pull out and pay fees on top of that.....unless you are older...

Nice work out back at the house. Enjoy Hawaii!!!

Companies like Grundy and Hagerty insure vehicles based on appraised value...maybe they can assist you in a real world value and not one out of the insurance company's dirty lil black book of how to screw you good neighbor! I would try to get as much as possible in a deal and keep the...

1.5yrs & 25,000miles on the Falkens. Love 'em

Mine do the same. A portion of my LED's light when running. Another portion comes on with low beam switch...another with hi beam switch. Turn off engine b4 light switch & they stay on a minute. I think the circuitry is designed that way. Never have drained the battery, I believe there is no...

Electrical tape around the punch adds protection from marring the crank. After boogering up the first rms, I chamferred the rough/sharp edges with a chainsaw sharpening rod...used oil AND dish soap as others have done....and I had to loosen all main caps. Messy job....get lots of shop towels...

You've got some nice welding skills. Like your exhaust. I just did my exhaust last summer. 2.5 summit pipes and band clamps with magnaflow hiflow cat and borla muffler. Have some things on the to-do list you have already done...frame stiffeners, motor mounts, & SYE. Nice pitman arm! Also...

earplugs on the hwy??? damn....glad I did what I did. LOL. Bought all my stuff from Summit...have loved their products, price, and shipping for years....and yrs....and yrs....hee hee. Seriously....I love the stnls band clamps. Same price as other clamps, without crimping pipes. Seal great...

So is that budget $5-6k above the 4k purchase price? If not, I say 2-3inch lift which needs to include the 1inch transfer case drop. And skid plates. I have an early 99 sport with a 3inch lift and Falken AT's. Goes anywhere you need it too if you're not rock crawling. Was just in CO, had to...

What did you end up going with? Or are you saying you put off the muffler for now by going with the resonator? After I posted a couple weeks a go, I payed more attention to the sound. I don't mind the Borla at all. Perfectly content with it at the "ripe ol age" of 47! More of a loud "hum"...
