Inspectors don't care, half of them give the impression they wouldn't know a swaybar if it jumped up and bit them anyway. I did some parking lot donut testing before and after removing the rear swaybar on mine, and never noticed any real difference. Drives the same on the highway too.

In case anyone is looking, the LKQ salvage near I45 currently has a 2.8L Cherokee and a newer cherokee with a class 5 uhaul receiver in perfect shape just waiting to be pulled.

Hey, did you ever get into SFA? I'm there now, driving an '00 white XJ with a JCR front bumper.

Do you have a set of ATV ramps? you can put them next to each other and use tow straps to attach them to the bed of the truck so they won't slip off, then slide the engine (assuming it's in a crate) down the ramp they form.

Sounds like ROM was pretty rough. I don't feel quite so bad about missing it now...

My jeepster has passed 3 inspections with nonfunctioning backup lights, and I've been told that they are not on the inspection list. It's horn is currently activated by an on/off toggle switch, and according to my inspector as long as it works and he can reach it then it passes.

The CB radio mount above my XJ's rearview mirror was loose and apparently was putting enough weight on the mirror that it fell off yesterday! Is there an easy way to remount it?

A lot of good the debris fence did there.

338 lapua...heh If you gonna get something that big, why not just go all out and get a 50bmg? Muzzle brake reduces recoil, but makes the gun REALLY loud (even louder than one without it).

Left rear bar pin clanks going over bumps. Sway bar links do the same now, after removing/reinstalling them a bunch of times. fan blade is bent and has started to create a vibe-gotta fix that soon. Driver's side knee deflector has squeaked ever since I installed a set of maglite clamps on the...

Definitely have a trusted mechanic look at it. Is it being sold by an individual or a dealership? If a dealership, make especially sure that you pick the mechanic, not the seller.

Pretty sure it varies by state... we had to go through a title company to get one for my C101, and it's a '67

Wouldn't you also have to swap to an axle with a centered rear diff if you swap out for a diffeerent t-case?

I wonder if it might have somehow damaged the trac-loc.
