    heater problems

    You could have blockage but, without knowing more its hard to tell which way to go. My 98 had that problem of blowing barely hot air and after a few radiator drains it cleared up.

    Upgrading gears

    Sorry looking back at my invoice it was 1880 for everything. Which was cheap compared to everywhere else I checked. Dealer's in the area wanted 2200 or so to do it. If you ever need major work done in Austin go to Jeep Masters. Bo and Ray are 20 year chrysler mechanics that run the place and are...

    Upgrading gears

    Not sure about the JK's but, should be the same price range. I had my Jeep regeared at Jeep Master's in Austin,Tx and it was 400 an axle for labor and the gears themselves were 200 a set plus a hundred a axle for the rebuild kits you need. I think with everything it was right at 1,700 including...

    Chrome or no chrome?

    I think your right I like the yellow covers a little better. Red isn't bad but, yellow stands out.

    Chrome or no chrome?

    I recently pulled the chrome grill overlay and bezels off mine to put the black trim rings and billet grille inserts. Do you think it looks better black out or with the chrome it had?

    2005 Jeep LJ

    No its not a Rubicon. It is the Premium H package which basically was like the Sahara of 05. It had the standard features most Jeeps had but, also had little creature comforts and accesories like the Chrome grill overlay,fog lamps,cruise,tinted windows,towing package,locking gas cap,two tone...

    2005 Jeep LJ

    I don't understand what you mean by Yea,really. Some People? Trail rated RN I hear you about the dealer deal. I have looked at some and thats about what they are going for but, like your mentioned I doubt that person got more than maybe 13k or so if that. I know most people want probably a new...

    2005 Jeep LJ

    Just testing the waters. I'm not really trying to sell but, was wondering what about it was worth. I have checked Kbb and the thing is it says its worth around 13k in mint shape which to me is hard to imagine its only worth that. Shoot I see 98,99,2000 low mileage Jeep Sahara's go for 11 to 13k...

    2005 Jeep LJ

    What do you think my Jeep is worth? It has 94k always garaged never offroad or seen dust even. Jeep is in mint shape. I don't think there's one scuff on it.

    2005 Jeep unlimited engine noise

    Man I hope not. The only thing I have done to the Jeep besides maintenance as been a whole new cooling system aside from the heater core. My Jeep has been doing this noise for about four months or so and has only done it a handful of times I guess I will have to keep an eye on it.

    2005 Jeep unlimited engine noise

    Here lately every now and then after my Jeep is first started I hear a noise like something is caught in the fan clutch but, the noise goes away so quick is really hard to pin point the problem. It last about 2 to 3 seconds but, it does it once in a blue moon like once a month or so. Engine runs...

    15w-40

    I won't be moving that I know of. I forgot to mention its a 4.0L inline six. I like the maxlife but, it seems the Jeep would tick some when it got hot out with 5w-30 or 10w-30. For some strange reason it seems to harldly tick at all with 15w-40 at least in the summer temps. I haven't used it in...

    15w-40

    So as long as its not single digit's its okay then? I can only think of a handful of mornings in the winter here where its gotten down to like 10 degrees but, we are talking record book tempartures for here that don't happen often and when they do its a week at best. 30s and upper 20s are the norm.

    15w-40

    Is it safe to use a 15w-40 in a 2005 Jeep 4.0L with 93k on it leaving in Texas? Engine seems smoother with it but, I have heard conflicting stories saying its not ok and others saying it was better because its a loose engine unlike modern tighter engines. Thanks.

    Oil me up

    Some may argue but, its too easy and cheap to change the oil every 3k. I haven't seen an engine that died an early death doing it that way unless it was ran on Pennzoil/Quick Mistake. Maybe it was made by lube shops but, sometimes it doesn't pay to reinvent the wheel. You find something that...

    2005 Mint condition Jeep unlimited H package. 23,000

    I decided to keep it after all. Most offered me 15k or less and I have yet to find one as nice and well cared for as this one with more miles on it. I did find a nice one but, it was 14k and had a salvage title who wants that? As much as I like the 4 dr JK's I'm on the fence about durabilty just...
