I just picked up a new-to-me f150 that will need some new rubber. It will see towing duty, some light offroad, and in the mid atlantic, the possibility of crazy snow out of nowhere. I'm fond of grabber at-2's for an all around tire, got them on my xj now, but have also looked at the nitto Terra...

Frank isn't a member yet, I'll get him in here so he can describe it

Thanks, just got back from its shake down run. The xj was tired when I got it... a lot of elbow grease later she looks and runs great! Pretty pleased with the performance, it did well in the sand, rode well on the highway, and fully loaded with crap in it and on the roof rack, and dragging a...

You will need to cut those bumper caps if you do a 3".. but that's the way I went and have no complaints

Thanks, the bumpers will be easy to find. Used rhinolined jcrs will stick out!

That's what bugs me about electronic modules.. The best test for most is usually to spend the loot and replace it... Fingers crossed, I'm ordering parts

after some tinkering, i found if you try to hit the remote, it clicks in the passenger door...? on yahoo answers another guy has the same issue and the answer said that the master in this system is in the passenger door. it seems that the switch might have gone bad if this is correct? seem right...

my daughter was fooling with my key fob and set the alarm off on my 99 xj classic, after i turned that off, now the power locks dont work either from the remote or the door switches. is this a hell of a coincidence that the system stopped working exactly when she was screwing around with the...

And now it exists... Am I being a pain in the ass if I suggest a city for the yard? Like in my area we have "crazy ray's pick and pull" in 3 different towns in md.

I saw some chapters have a junkyard find thread, not so much a "for sale" as a "go look here for this"... Is there one for this chapter or just the lots-o-Craigslist one? I realize it probably won't get too much action and need a bump now and again but I don't wanna keep looking for it if it...

This has given me the opportunity to do some more research on all the parts I'd like to use.. I think I will be piecing the lift together after all. Is there any use looking for deals on used stuff? Am I asking for trouble if I do? I'm sure there are plenty of stand up sellers but I am new to...

A 99 4door with a quarter million on the odometer, working on a mild lift and 31's. Building it as a tow vehicle to get the camper to the better spots I can't reach with the car...

I didn't mean a "for sale" per say.. I'm new here and was just surprised at the "hey here's good stuff I don't need, someone go get it..."
