I looked closer at the roof structure/pillar connection and I can see how just the roof could be replaced. If that were the case than I don't think door count would matter. I also cut off the remaining roof from my 2000 4dr and compared them. They were very similar, main exception being the B...

Short end of the stick is probably the nicest way to put it. The floor and unibody rail rust isn't horribe. I've seen worse in other peoples posts. Unclewolverine: Overall lenght should be the same but the pillars are different. The roof replacements I've seen online cut down into the A/B/C...

I recently bought a 96 2 door to replace a 2000 that got crushed by a falling tree. I knew it has floor rust when I got it. No biggie since I repaired floor rust in the 2000. What I didn't know was the A and B pillars, drip rail, and windshield frame also have rust with spray foam put in to...

Dammit, my proofreading is lacking. Sorry guys, that should be 6.14 degrees on passenger caster. md21722, thanks for clarifying. Each side has the factory clevis and no shims.

Thanks for the replies! The rear pinion seal is a typo, I meant front (I do have an SYE for what it's worth). md21722: How would you suggest correcting the caster? Setting the LCAs at separate lengths doesn't do anything for a solid axle from what I understand. If the camber was just one...

Hey all. I have a 2000 XJ lifted about 3.5 inches in front and 4 inches in the rear with adjustable LCAs and track bar from IRO. I recently replaced the unit bearings and had some odd vibrations at speed, so I took it to a free alignment check place and had it looked at. The ball joints feel...

Well, the TSP tested good, but while testing that I noticed that the Idle Air Control Module kept clicking when the key was on, and when the throttle body was turned it gave a loud click. GAPanda, I would also like to know which Carter part # you ordered. Thanks!

Hopefully in the next couple days I'll get a chance to do some more testing. Perfect way to spend the holiday! Thanks and hope you all have a good thanksgiving

Hey everyone. I have been having some acceleration issues with my 2000 4.0 XJ. It will stumble, sputter, hesitate, until I get to WOT and then it jumps forward. It is especially bad at highway speeds around 70-80 mph. I have to be at WOT to maintain speed or it will sputter/stumble and lose...

Thanks for the picture hubs97xj. I'll check it out tomorrow.

Ah, sorry about that. It's a 2000 sport 4x4. Where is the flasher module? I can't seem to find much info about it.

I had to use my emergency flashers yesterday and they only worked for several minutes before they stopped flashing and stayed on. I turned them off and back on but it didn't help. After about 30 minutes at Auto Zone trying to fix a brake light problem I had to drive across the street and I...

Does the pcm part number have to match exactly or will it work as long as its for a 00/01 AT 4.0?

I don't know why they would have to program one. I don't plan on them doing it. I think I'm gonna have it taken somewhere else where I can park it temporarily and try the oil idea and put in a "new" pcm if needed. The other engine over heated and cracked the head and it was knocking/rattling...

Thanks flyfisher. I'll talk to the dealership and ask them to try that. I just called and of course the guy working on it is gone and there is nothing useful written in the paperwork about any compression testing they might have done. GAH! This is the first time I have ever had to take a...
