    2001 Manifold to Cat Bolts

    When I did mine in my '00I was able to order new bolts and the clip pins from my dealership. Weren't cheap, thinking about $35 for all of them but said screw it. If you can still get them is anybody's guess. Thinking most guys just use nuts and bolts without a problem

    Rivnut tools

    Pretty sure that the one I bought is the Astro that JohnX posted years ago. Haven't used it a real lot but it has done what I needed it to do so far. I do vaguely remember it not coming with a size I thought it should, thinking 3/8" (don't recall the thread pitch at all), and bought it...

    Question about Extended Idle

    If you are following the write ups that I have seen where the guys just tap into that gray wire right at the PCM wondering if your "homemade" Ext Idle switch is correct.

    Question about Extended Idle

    Instead of tapping into the wire at the PCM I used this video for my install. Took a trip to the boneyard for the wire but was pretty easy and made for a cleaner install IMO. Wondering if you are using a real Ext Idle switch.

    Fan clutch for 2001 4.0?

    If they didn't have it in stock and it was close by not till today IMO. They would have put it through Saturday but there is no overnight from the DC's, assuming they even get an overnight, Saturday or Sunday night. But there would be one Monday night or very early, before opening, Tuesday...

    Fan clutch for 2001 4.0?

    What does "snork" mean? Curious as to how you did order it. For in store if my store did not have it in stock we check on availability. Some times the local Napa warehouse, referred to as the DC, will have it in stock." We go twice a day to ours so if you order it by a certain time can have it...

    Fan clutch for 2001 4.0?

    I retired out of a Napa and used their fan clutch when I replaced mine in my '00. Just the regular duty one. I would have to look up the number in my files but thinking that it is the same part number you posted. I believe that back then they were rebranded Hayden's. Couldn't say if they still...

    2001 XJ interior lights and turn signal LEDs

    What is the CHMSL? Almost positive that my kit from onewaylights.com had the cargo light too. Want to say when messing around the regular 194's did work but my turn signals had a faint glow to them all the time. That part I am pretty sure I wrote about in my write up.

    2001 XJ interior lights and turn signal LEDs

    Tried to sort through that post and got lost a couple times. But as far interior lights go for LED's I just went with the kit from onewaylights.com years ago. Gave me everything I need for the interior but not including ones for the gauges. As far as running LED's for all the exterior lights...

    Filter media on floor mats?

    To anybody doing an evap core and wanting to replace that it is called rearticulated foam.

    Map Sensor Vacuum Tube

    Year would help but for my '00 I was able to buy a new one from my local dealership. Was a few years ago though.

    1995 XJ 4.0L Oil Pressure Gauge maxed

    In a '96 I used to own it was pegged too. I just ignored it. Engine wasn't making any weird noises so.... In my '00 that happened too. Replacing the sensor fixed that. Having said that I would check grounds and wiring to the sensor itself first like everybody else said.

    Regular maintenance schedule for a daily driver?

    Well I mention some of the brands and types because part of that plays in how I do things. For instance Napa sells an Extended Life coolant that could go farther. But I like the green stuff. If I used synthetic oil probably could change my oil once a year cause of how little I drive and it would...

    Regular maintenance schedule for a daily driver?

    While my '00 is the only vehicle I own I don't drive much. And when I do it is short trips with frequent stops most of the time. So much so that at least once a month I try to take the Jeep for a good run on the highway. So all my maintenance is time and not mileage. Oil change in April (10W 30)...

    Temperature probe

    See now in my '00 I plumbed in some fittings so I could run a tester and the oil gauge sensor at the same time to see how they compared. They pretty much read the same.
