2004 TJ X had the front pinion seal go out. Still under warranty so I had the dealer replace it. Anything I need to be wary of....keep an eye out for to make sure this was done right? I've read a few of the old forum posts on the topic and there appears to be some talk about making sure the...

Welcome Jason. This is THE place to be for info and everything else Jeep related. I tried out a couple of Jeep sites before this one a couple of years ago....and I can say this one is the best. Good people....helpful....knowledgeable...you name it. My two cents on your 31" dillema? I bought...

Thanks for the support. It's definitely going to be a challenge...but also very rewarding. I lucked out with a pretty good school. Maybe I'll cook up an Algebra lesson on changing gear ratios or even a Geometry lesson on angles of approach and breakover angles. We gotta get them new Jeepers...

Hey everyone! I'm starting my 2nd (okay 3rd) career next week. I'm going to be a high school mathematics teacher. I'm really looking forward to this. I wanted to get the Jeep community's opinion on teaching and teachers.

That's not a typo. But you may have guessed...it's the dealer installed price. No, I didn't go asking. We were at the mall last night and the local Jeep dealer had a new 2005 Wrangler on display with some dealer installed extras. 2005 Wrangler SE, Auto, I-6, 3.73 gears at $21,170 PLUS all...

sensor Aaaaha....got it Gadget. Picture says it all. Thank you. :D More square inches on the "trailing"...NOT thickness.

Gadget, I just reread the other thread again slowly. (I'm a fast read, then a half-fas$t read, then a slow read kind of guy.) You stated the following in that thread... "It is inherent to the "self-servo' design that the trailing brake shoe actually provides most of the stopping power. Hence...

It is a "leading" and "trailing" shoe issue. "Leading" rear shoes are wearing faster than "trailing" rear shoes. (Drums in the back...disc up front.) Thanks Gadget for the old thread. There is some great info in there but it is a little bit different issue.

Pulled the rear brake drums off today to clean 'em. Typical 5,000 mile routine for me. I noticed that on both sides of the vehicle that the shoes toward the front are wearing quicker than the shoes toward the rear. It looks pretty similar on both (left/right) sides of the vehicle. This is the...

MPG? Left the baby in 4wd on pavement for about 4 miles. I was running about 45mph for the trip. Pretty much straight road...curves, but no turns. When I noticed I dropped it back into 2 HIGH. Got her into the garage a few minutes later. I smelled what seemed to me something "sickly sweet."...

I picked up the 4 Canyon rims and centercaps on Ebay for $221 plus shipping. Two of them are mint. Two of them have minor scratches in the clear coat....but you have to get pretty close to tell. That's $56 a rim. In my opinion....pretty sweet. Factory look, factory fit, factory offset (the...

RE: ABS Vibration no light Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there! Got some new rims and tires for the Jeep. We're now on OEM Canyons 15x8's (Ebay) and BFG Land Terrain 31x10.5's. Nothing too crazy...but the Jeep looks better...rides better...and, of course, we picked up another inch of...

RE: 2001 Grand Cherokee start up problems, etc Yeah...slap it to the soccer Mom. Rude and disrespectful should never fly. Gotta agree with the rest though....be NICE to the police officer. I was pulled over a few weeks ago for the first time in 8 years. In the Jeep...speeding (yes it's...

blowup of a AMC 20 rear end Our cat has a new favorite spot. Well, at least everyone in the family loves the Jeep!!

I am sure you boyz can help this chick out *Smile* Okay....buddy of mine gave me a BF Goodrich Mud Terrain 30x9.5 that he has had in his garage for ages. The tire is in new condition. The blue stuff over the white letters and the little nubs on the outside. BUT...based on the DOT code the tire...
