Well folks, while I wait to get my xj project started, I stumbled across a '83 Grand Wagoneer Limited for a whopping $360. It has a host of minor issues, but runs with over half its vacuum lines disconnected. (not missing, prev guy did a lot of half-finished work on it) Rebuilt tranny and...

My LS has been acting a little strange lately. Seems like once things started heating up down here (we're talking Yuma folks, I see 110-120F for nearly a month straight every day at the high point of summer.) my engine started surging and hesitating, what I would expect form either dirty fuel...

So as some might remember, my XJ was totalled in an accident in december of last year...with the money from insurance I paid off the loan and bought a '94 Lexus LS400 for half what it was worth. Fixed the major problems and now its a mostly reliable vehicle. Of course it should go without...

Yes, its true. I was really just beginning to get into the build process, so I suppose I should be grateful this didn't happen a couple of years down the line. But down to the nittyy-gritty. Friday night (I've been in the hospital and recuperating since then) I T-boned some visiting moron...

I just acquired seven (7) aircraft landing lights (sealed beam bulbs mind you) rated for 28v, 250/150watts for absolutely free. By my reckoning they're roughly the same size as a KC Hilight housing (just a little smaller), and I know there's a seamed beam version of that light, so it should be...

OK guys, keep in mind I'm still pretty early in the stages of building my rig and I'm learning as I go...that said, I have this crazy idea of stroking my 4.0 to 4.7 and then bolting on a supercharger. My question is about the snorkle I've got on there though; is it providing enough airflow for...

I searched, didn't find anything relevant, so here it is; does anyone out there own, or know someone that owns these axles? They're waay pricey, but the concept's great. But just because the concept's great doesn't mean it works as well in real life applications; if these are good axles I may...

I drive a '00 4.0 Sport w/ (obviously) 4WD, 81k miles. Only mods to it are a chopped airbox for it to breathe better and 235-75-R15 tires. Edit: Dang it, forgot to mention its automatic. THis weekend a problem finally reared its ugly head. I was leaving a rec area so I stopped to put 'er...

In the interest of a perfectly tuned Jeep (lol...) I'm trying to track down the source of the only real problem I've found in her yet. When I go to reverse, it idles rougher and I can smell something like gas. Having next to no mechanical expertise (spark plugs and temp/oil/voltmeter guages...
