Still hoping someone is looking for one of these. Let me know if you're interested.

In case you're still looking for a rack option: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1037231

Selling off my Wilderness Off-Road rack (Garvin PN#39011), 60"x60"x6" dimensions. It was on my XJ first as a gutter mount, then later I converted it to Yakima crossbar mount. I will include the gutter mount hardware and Yakima mounting hardware. It is in great condition, with light wear...

The plugs look clean as they should be with plenty of life left. Champion truck plugs are in there now. Interesting thought about the injector. There have been some misfires when dealing with the restart stuttering when I try to give it gas. If I gently apply the pedal it will slowly even...

...anyone have any advice?

Hello, I've got a number of sudden issues that I wonder if they are related. The rig: 2000 XJ Sport, AW4, 4.0, 3" lift with 31" BFG ATs. No SYE or other driveline improvements (in other words, stock) 120k on it, with regular oil changes. About 2-3 months ago I noticed a strange vibration in...

How tall is tall enough? I have thought about putting a long arm on my 2000 XJ...on 3 inches. Is it rediculous to put a long arm setup on "only" 3 inches of lift? Would this seriously limit how much higher I could go? No taller lift is in the near future, but 4.5-5ish is a possibility in a...

Thanks for the help...again. So for a mechanical gomer such as myself, where does one locate the sending unit, and how much of a nuiscence is it to do myself?

I have a similar "problem" on this thread: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=85004 I know that my idle at 20 is a new thing for my 80,000 mile 2000XJ. I run at about 40-45 normally, but it has been spiking a bit higher lately. I get up near 70 at times, and I have no clue why...

Well, now...much belated...I have an update and another request for advice. There had been no problems with the oil pressure for weeks now. But...Tonight I started up the Jeep and started driving home from work on the freeway. The oil pressure was suddlenly pegged at 80. I tried turning...

Thanks...I'll make a phone call. Here's another question, tho: How would I go about checking to see if my steering components are all ok...ie, not bent/f-ed up? It tracks fine, corrects to center, and shows no signs of toe problems upon a visible inspection. It just gets me nervous as it is...

I've done some searches and found some similar scenarios, but nothing specific to what I need to ask: Anyone have any recommendations for alignment shops on the west side of Portland? I took a "slight nudge" at about 15mph to my passenger front tire on a wet night of driving, and now my...

Well, the title was an exaggeration, but the other day I started my Jeep to go to work and it started and ran fine...then 2-3 miles down the freeway I look at my oil pressure and it is pegged to the top. I think, "oh $#!+" and throw it in neutral to see if it settles. No luck. Then I turn the...

I'm as gulity as the next guy when it comes to being lazy and not going to work parties and then expecting all the trails to be open and in good condition...so yeah, going to work parties is a great way to learn the trails, help out, and take some ownership of our sport. Buuuuut, the motivation...

Big reason there aren't any tracks is, yes, the snow...and trail closures. If you look at the trail report via the link on the TSF (http://egov.oregon.gov/ODF/TSF/road_and_trail_rpt.shtml) website, there are a lot that are still closed and will remain that way until it dries out or gets some...
