    How do ZJs compare to XJs in terms of offroad capabilites?

    Friends with problems... ZJ's and XJ's are basically the same. Sure, ZJs have the coils. But, I am more of a leaf person. ZJ's have smaller wheel wells and cannot run as big of a tire, without shelling out for a bigger lift. my rule is that how good a rig is off road depends on 2 things: 1...

    Friends with problems...

    Okay. I have a friend of mine and my Dad's Jeep. They both have problems. My buddy has a late 80's XJ with the 4.0 and a stick. His problem is that when it is warm, not cold... the engine cuts out. It doesn't sputter or anything. its like 100% ----> -150% electrical power. Everything just drops...

    HELP! Danged Exhaust flange!!!

    Re: God Bless Technology! What I did was have my rotted out cat cut off and my flowmaster welded on with no cats. My headers on the 2001 has 2 cats merged into the collector tubes. All those of you with 2000 or 2001's look at your headers and you'll see what I mean. No tailpipes after the...

    HELP! Danged Exhaust flange!!!

    I have a flange on my XJ for the headers to bolt to the catalytic converter. However, it is only present on the 2000 and 2001 XJ. The headers themselves are fine. HOWEVER, I do not want to shell out like 200 to 300 bux for a factory OEM catalytic converter. And sshhhh... I wanna run no cats and...

    abs locking question

    I want to disable my ABS. Would that hurt my Jeep if I did that? I heard you can pull the big fuse in the engine bay to disable it. I HATE ABS for some reason. For example, I went in reverse and then hit the brakes while turning and the brake felt like it was pulsating, but there was no braking...

    Brake Squeal

    My barkes act funny as well. When I brake the steering wheel moves to the right and its not the alignment. Happened after a mild wheeling trip.

    4.0 header compatibility

    I have an 2001. The headers seem to have two "mini cats" or whatever the heck it is. However, I am trying to find some headers for my jeep as well. I like borla, gibson, or thorley. However, the highest year I have seen is a 1999 Cherokee. There is nothing for a 2000 or a 2001, which ticks me...

    2001 Cherokee Wanting to fit 33s

    tow hook bolts I am THINKING about saving up for an SYE with super35 rear axle with posi and 4.56's front and rear with 35's and cut outs. I'm gonna try for the 5" lift by adding a 2" BB to the 3" system I am getting this year. If I go the big route, I will let you know what is happening...

    tow hook bolts

    I have a custom made tow hook bracket with chevy hooks. It works like a CHARM!!! HOWEVER, I have a slight annoyance of having my swaybar click/clunk against the rearmost mounting bolt that goes through the frame. I was wondering if there is a negative to grinding down the bolt slightly to make...

    5" lift questions

    I am definitely getting a BDS 3" suspension lift with the new rear leaf pack and everything needed to counter vibes, steering, trackbar etc... However, I was thinking about adding a 2" budget boost to bring it up to 5 inches of lift later with 32's. My question is, do I need an SYE for this...

    fender flares

    Ahhh. Damnit. I popped all four of my flares off roading. I am gonna bolt them back on the ghetto way. I plan to bolt all four of them using the existing holes in the sheetmetal. I am going to run a bolt through the flare itself and through the holes with a nut in the fender. Should be...

    fender flares

    Okay. The next time the flares pop out. Here's what I am gonna do... I am gonna put some silicone sealant to bond the plastic flare to the metal mounting tabs. It should be real TOUGH. Heheh. As of now, my flare is loose. the metal mounts are all worn and soft. so I can actually move the flare...

    fender flares

    Hey y'all. My Jeep is not lifted yet and I am running 235's. Its a 2001 XJ. So far, everytime I hit a big bump, the wheels will hit the bottom of the rear fender flares. My drivers side flare is tough as rocks and will not budge. HOWEVER, my passenger rear flare almost ALWAYS pops off. Its a...

    crappy factory remote unlock

    I have the factory remote unlock/lock/panic on my 2001 XJ. HOWEVER, I am deaf and cannot tell if the Jeep is locked and/or unlocked when I press the remote. I know it emits a beep from the horn while locking, and the interior light comes on when I unlock. However, I cannot stick around in the...

    My NEW Jeep!!!!

    No shit. One time I got pretty mad at a guy who kept telling me that the AR767 was not made for my Jeep. Found out later that he thought it was a GC all along. What the hell? After 1 hour of arguing, I finally found out that the AR767 was backordered.
