I busted off the plastic connector on my original coolant temp sensor in a ham fisted moment. It's the one at the back of the head that runs the gauge. I have now replaced it with two separate new sensors and both of them read about 15 degrees higher than my factory unit. Is this common? Is...

I have a '95 with the 4lt and automatic. When I remove the gas cap there is a lot of pressure in it. It hisses excessively, to me. I can't be 100% sure but it seems to be worse than it used to be. I don't remember it doing this when new. I think it is getting worse. I put a new gas cap on...

I have a '95 with a Painless headlight wiring harness. The harness plugs into the factory plug that goes to the headlight. The factory harness triggers a relay to turn on the headlights powered from the battery. There is a separate relay for high and low beams. Many times when I turn on the...

I just had to go through the mud hole at Hollister today even though it looked pretty nasty. Well it was. It was part snot, part quicksand and part water. My engine compartment looks pretty clean and the engine seems to be running pretty smooth. 1995 I6 with automatic. When I put the trans...

I have a two door so when I heard MasterCraft came out with a reclining suspension seat I was excited since I would like to be able to still access my rear seat. I kept hearing about how comfortable they were so I got even more excited. I finally got to sit in one and was EXTREMELY...

I'm looking at the newly available Tru-Trac for my 8.25. I talked to an installer that seemed to know what he's talking about and he said that the manual for the Tru-Trac says that if a wheel starts to spin you should STOP, apply brake pressure and then start again. Does it really say that...

My XJ has a side to side shimmy around 55-60mph. It's not real bad but it has gotten slightly more noticable. I can feel and see the steering wheel turn side to side, my passenger seat when empty shimmies side to side and my spare tire (rear-outside mounted rack) is now shimmying side to side...

My engine bogs down (sputter) when I accelerate hard. It does it just above idle and after it stumbles for less than a second, it then revs up and pulls as expected. The harder I jump on the gas, the harder it bogs, but only for less than a second. It does it the same if the engine's hot or...

I searched and am amazed how many ATF threads there are. I have a 95, 4lt auto with a factory tranny cooler. If I pull the tranny drain plug, how much ATF will come out? I need to buy some to refill it but I don't want to over guesstimate or worse under guesstimate. Thanks, Dan

I'm looking for peoples experience with carrying gas cans. I don't really want to add any more weight on my rear tire rack so I was contemplating on the roof. Instead of Gerry Cans I was thinking the shorter, squattier plastic cans. I'll figure out a rack. I was just wondering if anybody had...

I had an OX locker installed in my D30 a couple years ago in my 95. All was great until recently. It's starting to "click". When going around sharp turns to the left it clicks with the speed I'm going. It is NOT the U-joints. It is from the diff. I'm hoping that adjusting the cable will...

When people use a CO2 tank (like the Power Tank) do they use a tank with or without a syphon tube? I think I know the answer but I would like confirmation. I've talked to people that claim to have used these tanks and they had different ideas about the syphon tube. I've also seen people use...

I can't seem to get an answer from TeraFlex that sounds like they are confident about so... To anyone who has done the TeraFlex rear disc conversion on an XJ: What do I need to do with the e-brake cables? Teraflex says I need "longer" cables. I have YJ cables due to my lift. If anything...

I'm looking for opinions on front and rear lift. The XJ has a nose down appearance from the factory. Many people like to lift the front a little more to level it out when modifying suspensions. When unloaded, I prefer it just slightly lower in front so when loaded it's level, but level is in...

I was looking at my brochure for my 95 and then looked at the brochure for a 94. I found the following: Length 94-168.8" and 95-165.4" Width 94-67.7" and 95 70.5" The heights, approach angle, departure angle, and beakover angles are all larger for 95. My queston is about the length and width...
