    Slow cold starting, rough idle, then runs fine after 15 seconds???

    i've searched the forums & can't find the answer... i turn the key from a cold start & my XJ takes at least 5 seconds to fire up (no problem turning over). once it starts, the idle is rough for about 15 more seconds. if i put it in gear during this time, it feels like it's going to stall, but...

    Good 4.0 performance ECU?

    we have a 99 at work & although it looks like a base model, it has a 4.0 & it does "seem" faster than mine. when you step on it, it kicks down quicker & harder & just moves out...very puzzling...considering mine is in much better condition... eric 03 New Beetle Turbo S 99 XJ Classic 4x4

    how does this sound for a BB, shocks, & tires?

    as long as everything i need to adjust it is already there, the person helping me install everything should know how to do it. i'm not too mechanically inclined when it comes to this stuff, that's why i research everything like crazy! eric 99 Cherokee Classic - Flame Red Clear Coat, 4.0L I6...

    how does this sound for a BB, shocks, & tires?

    stock size for the shocks. i don't want to have to modify anything else for the tires if possible. i do have the Up Country package so maybe i could get 31's w/o too much rubbing... eric 99 Cherokee Classic - Flame Red Clear Coat, 4.0L I6, AW4, Selec- Trac, Up Country Suspension Group, Skid...

    Anyone bought tires from tirerack?

    i've ordered 4 sets of tires from tirerack with no problems. you have to pay shipping but it's fast, & even paying to mount/balance the tires is usually much cheaper than you're going to find locally. i'm planning on ordering my new tires from there as soon as i can figure out what to do with...

    best 3" lift for <$500 with leaf springs?

    i have the Up Country package & i measured from the center of the wheel to the flares...the rear was ~16.5" & the front was ~18.5". i think it is supposed to be about 17.5"... if i decide not to put a lift kit with leaf springs in, then i'll probably just buy some new shocks, coil spring...

    best 3" lift for <$500 with leaf springs?

    good points...you are probably right, i should budget for the SYE. i'm still in need of new leaf springs though & would like new shocks...the factory replacements are priced way to high, so that's why i thought it would be easier to just get the lift kit & get it over with. do you think 30's &...
