anyone got a good recommendation for a cheap electric impact wrench? I don't have the cash for a compressor and everything and so I'm exploring alternatives.

living in Pennsylvania, with the amount of road salt we see in the winter, my undercarriage is starting to rust pretty good and is looking kind of ugly. i was wondering if anyone has ever painted their undercarriage before and if it's a big hassle. mainly I'm interested in the frame rails...

I seem to have gotten the problem fixed. I got a tip from another Jeep forum (sorry for the disloyalty :oops: ) Anyway, there was a thread where I guy was having a similar problem with his XJ shortly after a dead battery. I guess a mechanic buddy of his told him that the computer might have...

It's a 97 and I ran the codes but got nothing. Just an "all clear"

I've had the same issues but am stubborn and don't take the rear corners out before I latch the front.

it did eventually start, but to get it to start I had to give it some accelerator. once it starts though, it doesn't remain running. it doesn't just die, once it drops down below 800 or so it sputters to a stop. if I give it gas and keep it around 1000 RPM it runs fine. this morning it ran...

so this morning i take out my TJ and the check guages light comes on and the voltage meter is pegged to the right. I stop, restart and everything seems fine. so i come home and about an hour later i try to restart it. well, it cranks and cranks but won't turn over. so i replaced the coil...

broke down and took it into the stealership. turns out it was the front u-joints. why didn't i check that myself? your guess is as good as mine. so it looks like they'll get to drain my pockets this time around. i'm pretty ripped that i didn't check that before taking it in. oh well, c'est...

I'm in Pennsylvania right now, but I'll be moving to Denver mid-June. Can't wait to get out there!

after seeing that, I think I would definitely go for the unlimited if I were in the market for a new one. now if they can only throw a 5 speed in there.

I thought about it, but summit is the only place I could find with 4.75" backspacing.

that's the thing, they're saying that they won't even know if they have them in stock until tomorrow, let alone ship them.

wheel ordering angst... has anyone seen one of those unlimiteds on the road yet? I have yet to see one up close and personal. i'm really wondering what it'll look like with a 4 inch lift and running 33s. seems like it'd have potential to be a pretty tough looking ride (despite the fact you...

ordered my cragar 397s from summit racing back at the beginning of april and they were on backorder so they told me they'd be in on may 1st. which was fine. but it's now the 12th and i still don't have them. they said a delivery truck came in on tuesday so they may have come in but they won't...

The previous owner put the lift on, so it's been on there for a couple of years now. I did just have an alignment done a couple weeks ago though. I couldn't get to the upper mount on the trackbar to check the nut. Plus it was wired with a crown nut so I figured it probably didn't loosen up...

I have 2" of lift on my jeep. Everything else is stock in the suspension except for the swaybar disconnects.

well maybe i'll cancel my appt with the dealership and see if new tires do the trick. my wheels are on their way and i'm probably going to order some Kumho's as soon as I know when the wheels are getting here for sure. my tires are pretty old and i'm wondering if I don't have a broken belt or...

That's EXACTLY what mine is doing. Did you ever figure out what was the root of the problem?

Well, after replacing the sway bar linkages, having it aligned, and getting the tires balanced, my TJ is still shaking like crazy if I hit a bump or go around a turn at 55 mph. It seems to happen more when I'm off the gas. Anyway, I checked the front track bar and it seems to be nice and...

motor compatability it's another. just got the latest broken thing fixed on my TJ yesterday when I installed the JKS disconnects to replace a broken linkage. so today I decided to take the doors off over lunch since it was nice out. well when I tried to take the nut off of the hinge bolt the...
