Forgot to mention the instrument cluster gauges are Unresponsive the vehicle has electricity I can play the radio but None the the battery or oil pressure gauges are responsive this started Wednesday.

This has been an ongoing battle between me and my xj. Started Saturday. I hosed out the engine bay and then drove the vehicle. Immediately started having Rough idle issues Didn't pull a code pulled it into my buddy's garage then it wouldn't start just turn over checked the fuel pressure in...

I'm having the same problem now what's the ending to this story here I feel screwed ATM

cool thank you

SPECFab can you better explain the Taurus fan scenario I told my buddy about that he helps me install all my new parts and he thinks I'm nuts is this the electric fan from the Taurus or the actual motor mounted fan does it just screw in there? Why a Taurus fan? Thanks

Sounds good Ima try all of theses!

OK so I am gonna get my radiator serviced and swap to a Taurus fan with an e timer, flush the coolant, add waterwetter. And Hopefully this will help me cool off on the trails. What year Taurus fan should I go with??? Thanks again y'all!!

2000 Cherokee sport 143 rounds Idk if its open or closed what do you mean by that? The stock fan does run and it only gets hot when I am on the trails and doesn't like to turn back on if I turn it off when I'm on the trails.

Anyone needing to order anything from roughcountry.com give a call to MITCH he just saved me over $60!!! and he's a great guy also honored my warranty "even though it was no longer in the warranty period!! As you can see I am completely stoked!! :party:

Good Point Thank you! The almost alloy is to prevent breakage from abuse, not to prevent excessive wear. If you are running Spicer u-joints now, and not breaking them, you don't need to install this mod. Buy Spicer u-joints.

32 inch bf Goodrich KM2's, 3 Inch rough country front coils back add a leaf lift, upgraded front tie rods with steering stabilizer, Rustys steering box stabilizer. I have not yet broken a U joint but my U joints are toast. Around by me its usually just trails mud light crawling mostly muddy...
