    Kids went mudding, grand cherokee is SICK!!

    1041339 I did the same thing in my Wrangler, but it cranked up after I got it out of the water. Definately change ALL the fluids (oil twice). Have someone check the air intake cause if that got wet, you're gonna have some serious trouble. Fortunately, in Wranglers, those are high enough up in...

    I like my Jeep

    1041611 I know what you're sayin'....I'm having a slow day at work too. But it's FRiday now and this weekend, I'll be at the lake, with my Jeep, top down and a cooler full of Bud, bag of buds and my buds! [addsig]

    I think my transmission's dying

    1041884 I had the same problem in my '97 TJ. Check to see if your clutch fluid is low. It's under the hood on the driver's side. If your clutch feels "spongy", you might have an air bubble in the line too. In that case, you just need to bleed the line. In any case, if that's the problem, it...

    Soft tops...

    1041953 I replaced my top with a Pavement Ends. It's pretty much the cheapest priced one around and holds up good. Mine was a little loose when I put it on, but after about a week or two in the hot Texas heat/sun, it's pretty taut now. So far, no tears, leaks. The noise level is about the same...

    Hummer copy-cat

    1041954 I thought Jeep had put the kaibash on Chevy using their design. I know originally, the grill of the hummer was the same design as the Jeep's. Not sure about the other stuff cause I haven't seen 'em up close. I would rather have an army hum-vee than these "toys for rich boys" hummers...

    What's the WORST car you've ever owned?

    1041955 Mine's still that $#%^&&%## '97 Blazer (see above post). I HATE IT! I HATE IT! I HATE IT ! I HATE IT! I HATE IT! Never again will I buy a used Chevrolet anything! I've dumped more money into worthless Chevrolet's than I care to think about. Did I mention that I HATE IT!!!! [addsig]

    Soft Top Window Cleaning Problem

    1040209 Mike- Try GooGone and a soft cloth (like a diaper). You can get it at Wal-Mart or a hardware store. It won't scratch your plastic and it will even remove sticker mess and stains. Try it out. Andy p.s. Thanks for the thermo tip. It worked! [addsig]

    Star Wars

    1040290 Attack of the Clones was ok. The Yoda/Count Dooku (Darth Tyranus) was a little goofy. Kinda looked like a rabid chihuahua on a big moving piece of meat. I also thought the first hour was a little too slow. I'm a HUGE Star Wars fan. I've got all the books, seen the movies a million times...

    Bigger tires vs. Gear ratio

    1040339 Thanks guys. I appreciate the help. I'll probaby go with the 31's for now too. If I spend another couple hundred my wife's gonna divorce me (and probably take my Jeep and dogs with her)! [addsig]

    Soft Top Window Cleaning Problem

    1040380 If GooGone and conventional plastic cleaners didn't work, you might try a buffer and some plastic polish. Just don't rub too hard or you'll scratch and burn through the windows. 3M makes a good plastic cleaner/polisher. If that doesn't work, I would take the windows back to the...

    Can water effect my transmission?

    1040461 I watterlogged my '97 Jeep a few months ago (see "Crazy Jeep pics"-the last water one). It sat in the lake for a good 10-15 minutes before I was pulled out and the water was up to my seats. Fortunately, I didn't do any damage. I did, however, immediately change out the transmission...

    sound bar vs speakers

    1042200 I've got that same soundbar in my '97 TJ. First off, if you're ever driving with the top down, you're not gonna get the greatest sound. That's one of the few drawbacks to owning a Jeep...you can't have good stereo sound. You can mount your speakers the other way, but again, your sound...

    Are your TJ fender flares going gray???

    1042366 Yeah, the Mother's "Back To Black" works really well. I've been using it on my wifes Blazer POS and now I use it on my fender flares too. I also use bumper paint on my flares about every six months just to keep 'em lookin' good. Glad I'm not the only one with this problem....[addsig]

    2002 Passenger Side Water Leak

    1042371 I don't know much about the 2002's, but I would suspect that you may be missing a plug in your floor board. Lift up the carpet and see if the plug is in. If you're missing one or it's loose, then there's your problem. I highly doubt it's from your top if it's that new. My top doesn't...

    Jeep is out, semi-dry and still won't run, but still stuck i

    1042789 Yeah...stay outta 10 foot deep waterholes! Actually, I swamped my '97 TJ back in January. I nearly made it through, but my distributor got wet and the engine conked. After getting someone to pull me out, I took a little WD-40 and dried it off and it cranked right up. You do need to...

    When is a Jeep not a Jeep

    1072617 I always said that if I saw a Jeep that was lowered and had neon :roll: underneath it it, I would give up climbing rocks and start climbing the lowriders! I'd rather ride in a Geo than in a lowrider Jeep! :-x [addsig]

    I had a Lazy Sunday.

    1072758 I had a lazy Sunday too. After spending a couple hours at Twin Buttes Resevoir, I came home, popped a couple Corona's and lounged in the pool. It's a rough life, but someone's gotta do it! :-P [addsig]
