25 here....26 on November 9.

just throwing in my 2 cents....i heard there was a study done that found that vehicles using Mobil 1 synthetic showed almost no wear on internal engine components after 200,000 miles! I know that sounds kind of outlandish, but if there's any truth to it, it's well worth the $20 I pay every 4000...

Anyone have any experience with these? Have the performed well for you? Do they wrap under the body panel at all? Do they hold up to snow and road salt? Any problems with your body panels rusting underneath them?

I heard Chrysler was working with these guys on that stretch wrangler for a while now. http://www.aev-conversions.com/lwb112.html

maybe this is a dumb question, but do disconnects only go on the front or can you put them on the rear too?

Thanks for the thoughts guys. I'm probably not going to get it. I really need to be attacking some debt more aggressively and spending $1000 on another Jeep won't really help me out with that. It's good to know about the quadratrac t-case for the future though.

I haven't heard too many good things about that Jeep V8. I've heard they're kind of unreliable and hard to get parts for. If it were me, I'd go for the 350. Chances are you're going to run into just as many wiring difficulties either way, and being that the 350 swap is much more common, there...

Sometimes I wish I lived somewhere that it snowed enough to justify that mod.

Hey all. In today's paper was a 1980 CJ7 for sale for $1000. I might call the guy and take a look at it tonight. It'd be cool to have a trail Jeep in addition to my TJ. Only thing I'm hesitant about is that it's an automatic. You guys have any opinions on a CJ with an automatic? It's...

I was just wondering what kind of shocks you partnered up with the lift and about how much the whole package cost you (minus the wheels and tires).

looks good man. wish I lived in Cali so I had some more warm days to work on mine. It's already in the 40s here in PA. blah. out of curiosity, what tools did you end up buying that you didn't have? I've got a pretty basic tool set and was wondering how well equipped I'd be for such a job.

So if I buy new wheels and am running 10.50s, I should get 4" backspacing? Is that how stock 15x8s come?

when I check my 97 with the hold trip button, turn key three times method, it goes through the gauge cluster show and flashes the code at the very end of all that business. make sure you didn't stop watching before it was ready to flash the codes.

Being that those have a directional tread design what do you carry as a spare? Right side or left side, and how do you rotate them. That's what I like about those TrXus tires in that they're not directional. Anyone every run Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radials? Again their directional, but...

ahhh....if only i had a mig and a plasma torch.

I'll usually downshift from 5th to 4th, but I try not to go any lower than that. I figure those two are pretty close in ratio so it can't hurt that much. I have heard that downshifting is hard on the synchros so that's why I try to avoid it in the lower gears. I used to downshift all the time...

a review of the trxus line of tires from the people that make super swampers... http://www.gis.net/~zacharer/jeep/reviews/trxusreview.html seems like a pretty decent all around tire. i'm tempted to buy it just for the snow performance. winters get pretty harsh here in the mountains of...

Any feeling on the interco trxus vs. BFG mud terrain? I read a review of the trxus tires that made them sound heaven sent!

Anyone got any tips for rock sliders? I need something that'll go up the body about 5 or 6 inches as there's a big rust spot on my rocker panel right at the bottom. I figure I'll patch in some new metal, primer and paint it, and cover it up with the rock sliders so I dont have to try and match...

consistently running at 50 psi. guess it was just the sending unit. now that that's out of the way, time to start on that body work.
