    Dome light will not turn off.

    x2 on the above. And not wanting to state the obvious but just to make sure you are aware there is a delay on the lights going out when you shut the door. And even more obviously make sure you are not trying to fix the lights with the door open!! Sometimes you just can't see the wood for the...

    02 Dead Guage Cluster

    Hi Adam, Welcome to "The Family". Sounds like the multi plug connector has come off the back of the clocks if all the fuses are ok. Not much of a job really. Take the grab handle off the door pillar along with the piece of trim that runs down the door pillar, lift up the panel that runs along...

    New Springs Fitted!!..................

    Hi All, Finally got my new springs fitted. As some of you will probably rememberl, I was exploring options of OME etc but then my jetski decided to die and I was forced into the cheaper option on the springs. Not ideal I know, but ended up fitting factory DIESEL springs onto my 2.4 petrol and...

    Masterkit lift???

    OME in UK Hi Paul, See link below for OME springs. It took me about a month of trawling over the internet to find them but they do OME lift kits for £723 inc Vat. I was wanting to lift mine but my jetski decided to spend all my money instead, so having to go the cheap route for now and...

    New in the UK - Hertfordshire

    Hi Paul, Welcome to the forum. There are a few nice looking Jeeps on ebay at the moment, along with all the rest of the dogs! Full service history is a good thing to look for as usual. Although no guarantee of a good vehicle, it shows that it has had money spent on it and not been neglected. I...

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    Thanks Ian, After a lot of being messed about by crap UK shops, I have decided to fit new factory diesel springs and some of Boilers shims if he will ship them over to the UK. I was thinking the same way as you with regard to "anything will be an improvement on what is on there at the moment"...

    Problem with pumping gas?

    Yes we get screwed over here!! Showing my age here, but I can remember when diesel was cheaper than petrol and obviously you got more miles to the gallon in a diesel, so people bought diesels, government lost revenue, government puts up price of diesel to compensate!! Easy!! How the hell can...

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    Thanks TJ. My Jeep is just the 2.4 petrol and I am a bit concerned the ride will be too harsh. I am going round in circles here and struggling to find an OME distributor over here in Shitty Blighty so I am thinking about just getting some stock CRD springs and put them in my 2.4 Petrol and hope...

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    Thanks Ian, Are the OME 790 a direct replacement for the stock CRD springs then? i.e. Same spring rate? Or are they a harder rate than the stock CRD springs? I am just thinking a 500LB spring instead of just over 300LB spring will have my Jeep bouncing all over the road instead of compressing...

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    I am just imagining how many of you had a look under your Jeeps before you drove it this morning? :icon_lol: And sorry Tom, I wasn't having a go at you, I was just trying to expand my mind with the "americanisms" . It's quite a bit different from English when it comes to cars, even though a...

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    Oh. We call that a prop shaft. What a difference a few thousand miles make eh? But having said that, we are only less than 30 miles from France and they have a totally different language. And they eat what we keep for pets. And they have weird toilet habits! Hehe. Thanx for the lesson Hoosier. I...

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    Hehe. Every cloud has a silver lining eh? I have been trying to find some OME springs over here but its easier to find rocking horse crap!! Hehe. :smokin:

    Front Drive Shaft Angle................

    What do you call them over there then Tom? We call them drive shafts over here. The CV is the constant velocity joint that is sitting ok cos it cant do anything else. And the drive shaft slides into the cv joint surely? 1 drive shaft with a cv joint at either end? So has it only sagged 1" in 70k...
