    Jeepz, help me make a decision!?

    punch some numbers. how much are you going to "lose" by trading or selling one of your jeeps? how much would you spend? if you go out and buy some beater, it might be cheaper, but in the long run, over the next year, if you spend X amount on a new commuter, are you really going to save more than...

    Wanting to get into Jeeps...again

    really depends on what you want to do, but you know that already. if you're going to really build something up, i say nothing beats a frame. trust me, i had a zj, it was great, and i beat the **** out of it and it held up, but in my experience, nothing can replace a real frame. that said, a...

    Roll bar?

    what kind of a difference do you mean? no stock jeep will hold up to a rollover well. if its going to be offroaded seriously, a roll cage is the only way to go.

    Liftin' stuff

    2" is pretty much useless on an XJ. it would only allow you 30" tires. but, it really depends what you want, if you want 30s, 31s, whatever, you have to be the judge. and honestly, it sounds like you don't have a lot of experience, nor do you plan on doing anything hardcore, i'd recommend...

    Lift Going On Next Week!

    yep, drag link TC, thanks, i couldnt think of it for some reason, but yeah sparky, you could adjust the draglink and straighten the wheel.

    Lift Going On Next Week!

    the alignment will not necessarily straighten the steering wheel, the name of the part escapes me at this moment, but you'd need to adjust something else to get the steering wheel straight. i mean, if you got it aligned, i'd hope that they would have the wheel straight for you, but if you think...

    Stupid joke

    ever see entourage? if you have, do what E did to turtle when he made him drive that h2 away. if you've seen it, you know what i'm talking about, if you haven't, ask me, its a bit too much for our sometime's PG audience here, but def a hilarious solution.

    M416 Trailer

    the way i look at it is just that you put so much work into that trailer, and really made it look nice (good job!), to me, its worth protecting it, i've heard nothing but raving reviews about line-x. either way you go, good luck.

    M416 Trailer

    i was going to say the same thing as rooster, i'd say spray it, or roll on liner, much like what people use on the inside of their tubs. get some quality roll on liner and it would probably serve you much better. i'd rather be cursing cause i got liner on my hands than cursing cause i still...

    Jeep for my gf...

    if it takes you more than 10 minutes to change the o2 sensor you need to seriously reconsider working on your jeep. when i got one for my zj, i want to say it was about 50-60 bucks, and it had the connectors on it, i didn't have to splice any wires. DEF an easy fix, not a $600 one.

    does this look alright?

    bushwackers. one of my friends has an epoxy covered garage, its alright, he and his father have decided that it hasnt been worth all the work. think of the phrase slippery when wet. among other things, just wasn't worth all the prep, moving everything out of the garage, painting it, moving...

    regear questions

    are you going to keep those axles? this is one of those times you need to make an honest no BS assessment. regearing can cost a lot of money to get it done right. if you think you might upgrade from your 30/8.25 combo in the future, hold off on re-gearing. do it once, do it right. if you're set...

    Sound System Question

    thats the obvious solution, i'm sure he's got regularly burned cd's that he uses, which are about 12-15 songs. mp3 cd's would allow you to put 100+ per cd. hooking up the mp3 player directly is the money way to do it. my suggestion, buy an aftermarket deck. i've got an alpine, i bought a $20...

    Sound System Question

    sell the jeep and buy a dodge caliber, they come with mp3 hook up from the factory.

    Tow straps with metal hooks?

    yeah they sell the blankets that you can put over a winch line incase that snaps. my old roommate used to always put his hood up when he was winching as the terrain allowed, that way, if anything ever snapped back, might not be 100%, but i'd rather take my chances in the car with the hood up...

    Thoughts on buying this jeep?

    i think $7600 is too steep for something that has been wheeled. plus, 3" of body lift is cheesy. where's the suspension lift?!?! my advice is to keep looking, steep price, wheeled, 3" body lift, dings, and 95k miles would steer me away.

    2" budget boost WJ

    i would say some of the best ong arm set ups for cherokees and grand cherokees (at least zj and wj) are the clayton long arm kits. if you live anywhere near connecticut, they'll install it for you too if you don't have access to a welder. as far as short arm kits, try rubicon express.
