Almost forgot: I had ordered a heated replacement passenger mirror from Amazon and it came in Friday and I installed it. it was $27 (JY wanted $30) and it installed super easy. I can't tell its not OE, and when I told the JY that I could get new on Amazon for less than he wanted for used, his...- djtimyd

on a different note: Went to the JY today and got 5 alloy rims, with the correct TPMS sensors installed. I was charged $185 for the set of 5. The rims are the darker color that look like they have ribs on the outside of the 5 spokes. I'll post a picture tonight or tomorrow because I don't think...- djtimyd

So is the $300 worth it? Seems kinda spendy unless its addressing a specific need/resolving a specific issue or failure. Asked and answered that 200-210 is ok - any other input regarding that temperature? I plan on only very mild trail riding and maybe light towing (less than 2k lbs.). I'm more...- djtimyd

My 2000 XJ is the one with the head that is prone to crack between cylinders 3 & 4... so far (180k+ miles) and its good. But I watch that temp gauge like a hawk! Good to hear that I needn't worry about overheating issues and that my temps are good. The mechanical fan is similar to the one on...- djtimyd

Yes, I know its used by many forums - and I have tried using the app, but I am not a fan of the interface. Besides - the app or not the app isn't the issue, its the fact that I get redirected to a...- djtimyd

In fact, I can already mark the EVIC off the list! Using the help from the 40 pages of submissions on a thread here, and a thread I found on lostjeeps, I finished installing this two days ago. Having added an overhead console to my XJ, I had some ideas about what I needed to do. My main issue...- djtimyd

Howdy all. My wife and I recently bought a 2005 KJ sport. This will be her car as I own a 200 XJ. I admit, I was one of those guys who bagged on the KJ for not being a 'real jeep' whilst driving my XJ. I have changed my mind - mostly because what qualifies as a real jeep is quite subjective (is...- djtimyd

HOW TO: Install an EVIC or OTIS (overhead computer)
First of all - Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this thread. I have found this invaluable for my own EVIC install (despite Chrome on Android forwarding me automatically from here to a fake virus page - I stuck with it!). I have a 2005 KJ and pulled an EVIC from an 04 and it all works...
