since i found NAXJA, i have been able to get some great information. anyone know of a good wrangerl YJ forum or discussion site? thanks.

just really wanted to know if the mechanic was feeding me BS when he told me that there was no way to reset an OBDII computer EXCEPT by having the shop do it. I kind of figured this was BS. I had to reset my awhile back because we were getting it smoged, and apparently, they are not allowed...

Just had the same thing happen this morning on my 2000 too....weird. So I disconnected the battery to reset the system, and the check engine light stayed off. Maybe just a hickup? This has happened before once. However, I was told by a smog mechanic that to reset the computer, you need to...

well, it stayed at 80 after the first check of the connection. but the wife just took it to the store...and wahla! back to normal.

yeah, i will check connection first. got that price from kragen auto store. thanks.

2000 XJ 6cly. Changed the oil, and used 10-40 instead of 10-30 by mistake. Immediately noticed oil pressure of 80 PSI, even at idle. Change oil after 10 miles, to 10 - 30, did not change oil filter agian. Driven a few miles, shut on and off 3 times. Still showing 80 psi at startup, run, and...

help, what is this? updated 2000 XJ, 6 cly. I think it is some type of vapor filter? There is a box, plastic, located just in front of the real axel, bolted to underbody, and has 3 lines (appear to be low pressure), one running to what looks like the top of the fuel tank. I busted one of...

2000 XJ w/4.0. Is it me or does the air conditioning system suck? I have driven tons of other cars and the AC comes out much colder. I know that the new enviro friendly gas does not transfer heat as well, but was wondering if anyone out there has a upgrade solution. I live in the desert and...

ok, so i have searched the forums, and have come up with a little info regarding the stereo system in my wifes 2000, ie, "lexus" sound system and such. she currently has some after market head unit, aftermarket speakers in rear, stock in front, sounds like a tin can. i have a nice sony head...

hey thanks! did not know that stud could be removed

so i installed a 3" lift on the wifes XJ, and a bit of driveline vibration is then present. so go to install a Rancho transfer case lowering kit. BUT, the kit comes with 4 bolts, to i guess screw into the nuts located in the frame. PROBLEM is, on each side of the transfercase cross member...
