    Bolt size for rear tow hook?

    I don't have a tap & die set, beleive it or not. But good idea...maybe I can go grab one and do that before I try to mount the hook. Thanks again.

    Bolt size for rear tow hook?

    Anybody know if I need a special bolt size and thread to attach a factory rear tow hook? Or can I just find bolts that fit and bolt 'em in? Are the mounting hols threaded or anything? Thanks...:D

    Checking LCA Bushings.

    I was told mine needed to be replaced because the bolts that hold them in were frozen in the bushings and my KJ couldn't be aligned because of it. Still haven't replaced them yet...dreading that job. Meanwhile I suffer with gross misalignment and bad clunking from the LCA's.

    Gas Light On! How far do you go?

    I've gone 35 miles on the fuel light...probably could have squeaked a couple more out if I was really stupid. I'm getting about 13.5 MPG, so if I had 4 gallons left I could have gone quite a bit farther I guess...who knows.

    Black on black

    I'd be interested to know what type of paint you used on the Moabs myself...may have to try that when I get sick of the aluminum look... How does that paint hold up to abuse?

    Would you buy your KJ again???

    Oh yeah I would. And when it's paid off, I may just hold onto it as a toy. The only reason I won't be going and getting another new Jeep product is because I really need a pickup...Jeep needs to build that JT pickup concept!! http://www.offroaders.com/tech/jeep/Jeep-JT.htm

    What type of car wash do you use?

    I spend $8 a week at my local touch-free car wash. It's a very high end system and does a great job. Around here, your car gets covered in road salt, dirt, slush and ice most of the year...you pretty much have to use a car wash. May, June, July and August I try to do it myself in the driveway.

    Turkey 1 Jeep 0

    Oh my God I hit a turkey once in an 89 K5 Blazer. I was going about 60...it was standing on the shoulder and when it saw me coming it decided to try and fly away or something...well it flew right into the passenger side of my windshield, busted right through and fell onto my passenger seat, then...

    Help Replacing cig lighter socket

    In my KJ I took off the trim cover that surrounds the radio and HVAC controls (you won't be able to get it all the way off because the HVAC control wiring will hold it there, but you'll be able to pull it far enough away to get in behind the lighter). It can be pried off along the top, then you...

    Pretty bad oil leak

    Yeah that's part of the reason I never got around to changing it all winter...My garage is full of boxes because we just moved in, so I can't do it there and I absolutely refuse to go to a Quik-Change style place or have the stealer change my oil. I'd rather not do it at all. Yeah, I'm mental. I...

    Pretty bad oil leak

    Problem solved, loose oil filter... And I'm a dumbass. Gave me an excuse to finally change the oil though...it had been 11,000 miles. ;)

    Pretty bad oil leak

    Neither the oil light nor the Check Engine light have been on. Oil level seems ok. Engine runs smooth as silk and no tick or other noises. I wonder if my oil pressure sender went bad... Hmmmm....

    Pretty bad oil leak

    Nope, just Castrol 10w30 dino. I'm stopping at NAPA on the way home from work today and I'll change the oil this evening. Maybe I can get a better look at what's leaking once I'm really under there. Thanks for the tips so far guys! I really just can't imagine what could be leaking so much oil...

    Pretty bad oil leak

    Hey guys, I've been noticing a small oil leak under my Jeep for the last week or so. Well, today I got home and noticed alot more of it dripping. Crawled under and saw motor oil EVERYWHERE. It was dripping from the crossmember, the transmission, the t-case and it had spread all the way to...

    Fuel grade - 3.7KJ

    I think most of us use 87 octane (as it is referred to here in the U.S.). That's what Jeep calls for and there's really no advantage to paying more for a higher grade.

    Ipod Adapter

    I would strongly recommend one of the units you linked to (commonly referred to as an "AUX Input") over a radio frequency adapter or FM modulator/transmitter type device. The sound is so much better using an AUX input. Lowest price I found on eBay is $59.99 shipped. That particular model doesn't...
