    i will be replacing the heater core and lines on my 2006 kj in the near future. as most of us already know, this requires dismantling the dash. i am also noticing some noise from the blend door actuator as well as sluggish movement when changing modes (Ex. changing from vents to floor or...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    picked up a pioneer AVH-4201NEX head unit, on sale at best buy for $499, and there is a mail in $150 rebate. decided against a unit with built in navigation because they don't include lifetime maps, maps don't get updated often enough, so i couldn't justify spending 2-3 times the money for it...

    GPS/multimedia head units

    unfortunately kenwood is looking like the winner in this case... i say unfortunately because the pioneer can seemingly be had for about 600 on a regular basis whereas the kenwood goes for about 1,200...but judging by the reviews of the pioneer theres a damn good reason for it (reminiscent of...

    GPS/multimedia head units

    Since i have once again talked myself out of a new truck and into keeping the Jeep, i have decided to add some type of GPS/backup camera/multimedia deck. i am looking at the pioneer AVIC-8201NEX and the Kenwood DNX994S. originally, the pioneer was my go-to, but after reading a lot of...

    P0420 error code

    sensors for these are really cheap and the downstream ones are a piece of cake to access and replace. just swap the sensor and be done with it.

    Led headlights?

    i can't say that an 1/8" gap around the headlight would bother me much if it meat having much nicer lights. same goes for looks, if the sit too far back i can make an adapter to push them out a bit.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Sylvania ZXE Headlight Bulbs-New?

    I have been running them for about 3-4 years IIRC, bought 2 or 3 extra sets from wal-mart when they were on clearance for $9 a pair. they are a white light, no blue tint to the light. they have worked fine for me.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    bought a new set of tires last night, yokohama geolander A/T G015 265/70R16 should go nicely with the newly powder-coated MOABs. next on the list will be a new muffler and tailpipe.

    are you using pre-mixed off the shelf cans? or "color-match" cans that the supply shop mixed for you?, do you have single stage cans or basecoat which will require clear? double check you paint code. what paint and primer are you using? post pics if possible.

    what size tires with TJ MOAB wheels?

    yea i have to dig through my post history or receipts to figure out my current backspacing, it looks like pro-comp discontinued the 16"x7" wheels and 4wd shows no order history on my account. my biggest concern is rubbing, my pinchwelds are already flattened so if they rub i would be SOL. edit...

    I found a set of MOAB wheels for the jeep. currently the jeep has a BDS lift with 3/8" clevis lift, 1/4" top plate, and 2 extra isolators in the rear. the wheels on it right now are Pro-comp rock crawler series 98 16"x7" with 4 or 4.5" of backspace IIRC. i am wondering if it would be of to...

    replacing timing cover gasket and seals

    i will be replacing the timing cover gaskets and seals (currently leaking oil). i currently have 141,000 miles on the jeep. would it be worth it to replace the timing set while i have it out in the open? a full set seems to go for about $375 on rock auto.
