    Vehicle Setup

    I never said they did...I was talking about his Grand Cherokee and a Dodge Ram...they did....

    Vehicle Setup

    I meant it has the same engine as a Dodge truck of that time period...they ran the 318 for quite some time...my dad sees those same gas milage numbers in his '98 Ram, with the 5.2, sometimes worse.

    Clear Front Turn Signals ebay, avoid "Freestylemotorsports"

    Mine came from a seller called "powerimport" and they were a perfect fit. One of them did leak a littile and required some extra sealing, as is the case a lot with aftermarker lights like that...but they shipped fast. I checked to see if they still had lights for liberties and they don't look...

    Flexing Jeeps?

    I wish I didn't drive much...60k on a '99 is pretty good...Just turned over 50k on my '03. :(

    Such nice people....

    The whole thing is just stupid...every time I see things like that, it reminds me of high school days of immaturity. I mean come on, grow up a little bit. I've been a member of a lot of forums over the years, with every car I've ever owned, and it's the same everywhere...and what I've come to...

    KJ and a manual transmission...

    Drivetain loss is evident in both manuals and automatics, not just automatics...most manual transmissions exhibit somewhere in the 18% range drivetrain loss, while an automatic will lose closer to 23%. I have an automatic, if I would have found a manual, I would have probably bought it...

    Such nice people....

    True Prior to 1994, since then it's been in minivans only. It did start out in the Imperial and 5th Avenue, New Yorker, etc though.

    Ebay, like $20-$25 I think.

    Most valuable accessory

    An offroad driving class. :) As far as vehicle accessories...I don't think anything is going to give it value per say...unless it is a factory option...but otherwise "look better" mods are sort of a matter of personal taste I guess. I like my tailight guards a lot...cost me $25, and my front...

    KJ and a manual transmission...

    Something us Southwestern PA people say...I knew as soon as I read it where he was from without even looking at his location. replace it with y'all, or you guys if you're from anywhere else in the world. :)

    Such nice people....

    I was going to for giggles, and I actually registered, but my account hasn't been "approved" yet, so I can't post anyway...

    Ever see a bird bomb?

    Whys that? Unfortunately if I have to choose between hitting a flying bird with my car, or swerving to try and miss it and wrecking....well, like I said, I've hit birds before...

    Such nice people....

    Here's some honest answers from Edmunds, both quotes taken from reviews of Liberty and Grand Cherokee... There are 9 Jeeps in my family...4 KJ's, 3 XJ's, and 2 WJ's. Guess which two don't see ANY offroad.... ...the WJ's. I like Grand Cherokees, I really do...I'll admit that my...

    Ever see a bird bomb?

    I saw a car hit a pheasant once...sort of looked like that baseball vid...just a big puff of feathers. I hit a bird with my old Ranger once and never found it...just heard the thud and didn't see anything behind me...guess it must have gotten stuck and fell out later.

    Gauge bulb colors?...

    As far as changing the color of the stock gauges, if it's like most other cars, the color that is there is made from the bulbs shining through a colored film on the other side of the face. I've seen people remove the film off the back before and replace the bulbs with colored bulbs, but never...

    Your comments on these wheels

    Don't forget about offset. The 18's you want have a 0mm offset. If I remember right, stock offset is 41mm. That's going to bring that wheel outward over 1.6" and cause rubbing issues even with a stock tire width (which would be tough to use anyway with an 8.5" wheel) without lifting. I would...

    My KJ stumbles

    Can you elaborate on how it could be the battery then...causing a stumble when coming to a stop?

    My KJ stumbles

    Huh? Anyways, I agree with MoladoGuy, a fluid change would be a good idea. Most people do not get those things done. Sounds to me like it's shifting hard in the upshift back to first. If you can, watch your tach as you come to a stop(of course, watch in front of you too ;) )...you can...
