    Wheeling in Alabama?

    I'm going to Alabama in not too long of a time, to Maxwell AFB. Does anybody know how good the wheeling is down there? I haven't been in the south in more than a decade, and I wasn't into wheeling at the time.

    Magellan Meridian maps. Where to get'em?

    I just got a Magellan Meridian Gold GPS unit. I'm pretty impressed so far, but am looking for a place to get more detailed local maps. Does anyone know where I can get such maps and how to put them on the unit? I will continue to investigate this on my own, and if no one knows, and I figure...

    Where to buy a hitch?

    I received my orders this week and will be moving to Alabama for flight training for the Air Force. As such, they are paying for my move, and I will need to get a trailer hitch for my XJ, for which the Air Force will reimburse me. So I'm going to get a good one. Does anyone have any...

    Loose hub on XJ

    Well, I found out what the problem was, and thought I would post the result for anyone who has a similar symptom in the future. The upper bushing on the shock was pretty much toast. I'm nto sure why I didn't look up there earlier. That completely made sense considering the noise it was...

    Loose hub on XJ

    I might take you up on that as you're half the distance away from me than Badcop is. Maybe early next week I could come by and switch them out to see if it works, and if it does, I'll buy it off you, if you're willing to sell it, or at least know what I need to do. I may try to get a more...

    Loose hub on XJ

    I might be willing to do that. I was thinking about just getting another one and seeing if it did the same thing. I completely removed the axle today and checked every bolt and nut, tightened all of them, and it still does it. It doesn't seem to have any negative effects other than the...

    Loose hub on XJ

    Soon after the lift was put in, I noticed on my XJ that the left front wheel would make a louder whacking sound whenever I was going off-road or hitting bumps in the street. The really big ones didn't do so much, it was the smaller faster ones, so driving on bumpy dirt was rather annoying and...

    I need to stop breaking my jeep...

    I got a new ECM from Crabtree Auto, exact same year and everything. It's the exact same ECM. Now the shop is telling me that I need to have it reprogrammed at that is going to cost $120! Somehow that doesn't seem right to me. I would think a perfectly good ECM out of an XJ of the same model...

    Part # for 2000 XJ ECM/ECU

    HELP! I'm pulling my hair out. I have looked all over Jeep's website, Mopar's website, and everywhere on the internet I can look. Does anyone know what the part number is for the 2000 XJ ECU/ECM (Engine computer)? Thanks.

    I need to stop breaking my jeep...

    Nice video clip! Yeah, I really do think it is the computer. Everything looks fine, fuses, intake, etc... And the fact that tho odometer says 'no bus' means that there IS something wrong with the computer. I hope that's all it is, that wouldn't be too expensive. I just gave up and took it...

    I need to stop breaking my jeep...

    The water wasn't too deep. Only about 30", so the computer or the engine was not immersed, just very well splashed. The main problem initially was getting the water out of the exhaust. I had to get pulled out because the exhaust was completely under water. But the engine and everything up...

    I need to stop breaking my jeep...

    Okay! New problem. I was out wheelin' yesterday and went into a puddle that ended up being deeper than I thought it was. Long story short, engine cut out, wouldn't start. I got someone to pull me out, and when I did, it still wouldn't start. We pulled the jeep onto an incline to let water...

    Tie Rod removal problem

    I got it! Well, I was able to get one end, then just twist off the tie rod and use one of the original joints, the one I still couldn't get off. Thanks to Gs_Jeep, I had a stock tie bar ready to be put on, and put it on. The idea of using the bottle jack to put some pressure on the rod...
