    Spare Tire Cover-Good or Bad?

    When you have really nice tires, I say, keep it off, and show off that spare! Plus my cover started looking bad... the white in the "Jeep" started to look bad... in all honesty. Plus I do a five-tire rotation, so it gets used and doesn't just sit there waiting for a blow-out.

    select trac transmission

    I love Selec-Trac... and agree... get it. I use it all the time in the KJ whenever the roads get wet. It sticks to the road like glue! Plus, then you do have part-time four-wheel drive for when you want to lock the axles together for serious conditions (I was just using that last week for...

    What oil filter do you use?

    I've gotten too lazy to change my own oil, so I go to the dealer and just use the Mopar (although I do provide synthetic oil). Someday I'll get back in the habit of changing my own oil and use a better filter.

    GM to buy Chrysler?

    I have gone through two employers that sold the company. The first, I was apart of the layoffs to make the company look right away that it was more profitable. Then with the second company, they were losing money, and again let me go as they were doing the same. Increasing the cash on the...

    Jeep History Books

    Since we are talking about Jeep history books, I have to mention an old (used) Jeep trail book my wife bought me several years ago. "Jeep Trails To Colorado Ghost Towns", published in 1966. It is in perfect condition, and is about a guy with a CJ driving around the mountains of Colorado...

    so is there any decent way to paint the front bumper?

    I have an auto body shop in the family, so from experience, I would suggest that you check with several local quality shops. I bet you can get it painted for about $300 (well, here in the states anyway), and it will look just a factory job. I'm sure a shop can use a special paint to give it the...

    Got the KJ ;)

    I'll take the pollen and sunshine anytime... LOL I hate the salt and the salt trucks. When I was a youth... that was before everyone started to salt the roads anytime it may snow an inch. Sure, the salt generally works, but wow, it rusts everything. My old hometown did throw down some sand...

    GM to buy Chrysler?

    I would think that they would sell the entire group, if it happens. Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep all share the same basics (engines, etc.). If anything, they could merge the best of the Chrysler and Dodge vehicles under one name. Chrysler has the 300 after all (which I have always thought was...

    Got the KJ ;)

    Congratulations! You'll both enjoy it. I know what you mean about the salt... I like to hand wash my Jeeps, but it's been so cold that I've run the KJ through an autowash three times in the last two weeks, and it's again covered with salt. ](*,)

    Just Curious....KJ Color

    Right! I should know that... as I work in marketng with plenty of color printing going on all the time. In printing, the best black you can get is four color black... funny as that sounds... vs. just black ink.

    Is it normal for water to flow by door hinge?

    But isn't that water in the photo on the outside of the door seals? After I wash the KJ (with a pressure washer), I always wipe out that area with a rag as it does get water in there. As long as the water doesn't get inside the KJ, it should be fine.

    Michigan Snow 2007

    I have thought about a snow blower. Although I do not get a lot of consistent snow, it drifts when it does and I have a long driveway and sidewalks. But I hate the thought of another small gas motor to maintain for use only a few days a year. :-k

    Question: Build Sheet Info

    I can see some car salesman saying that. My wife and I just ordered new windows for the house (rant: builder put cheap windows in), and the salesman said to us as we are walking out, "I'll be sure to drop you off a free can of window cleaner once their installed." Wow, what a guy!

    4HI JERKING WHEN TURMING WHEEL

    Yes, be careful not to use Command-Trac's 4-HI (or 4-LOW) on dry pavement. On my KJ, it has Selec-Trac, and I use the full-time four-wheel drive all the time when the roads get wet, and just part-time (same as Command-Trac) on snow packed roads (such as the last two days!). \:D/ See this...

    Question: Build Sheet Info

    Oh... well it must just be a sales thing! "Look, we also put tire shine on the tires at no charge!"
