    Got my JBA lift kit in and got the right side put in. Had difficulty with getting the strut in. Pulled the UCA and the brake caliper but could not get the LCA down enough for everything to line up. Finally got it in by running the preload nuts off the spring and compressing the shock with a long...

    BTW I ended up getting heads from Cylinder Heads International. They had them in stock and I got them in a couple of days. The send you UPS lables and don't charge a core if they get them back in 30 days. They even took that head with cracked lifter holder as a core.

    I sure they are nice..fitment would be the only issue. Biggest problem with aftermarket seats is getting the seat belts to work correctly.

    I am guessing I may have a bad clock spring. The horn is working so thats not a given but the cruise out is usually a clock spring.

    I was looking around and Corbeau makes a set of stock looking seats that are $600 a pair. You can get brackets for a KJ. Wondering if anyone has tried them. Corbeau Reclining Sport Seats, Black Vinyl/Cloth (Pair) - COR-90011

    You are not the first person to tell me that. I was waiting to make sure the repairs were in reason before I took the plunge.

    BTW I went by the local Jeep dealership and they have boxfuls of Liberty trailer hitches for the recall. My Vin came up for a replacement.

    Got the heads off. Found what was wrong with the heater controls...vacuum lines left off from previous work. Zero sludge in this engine. Has a new radiator, but the evaporator was just laying there not bolted up. All crankcase vent hoses are dry rotted. For the most part all the major components...

    Made the deal and got the heads. So the plan is 2 rebuild heads and bolts. New water pump, belt and hoses. Going ahead and servicing the tranny. Its an auto btw, not a manual. Looked around and the odds of getting a Renegade seat are not that good. So I will tackle fixing the stock seat. What's...

    Ok got my hands on the KJ today. Limped it home on 5 cylinders. One of the heads has to be replaced. The guide that holds one of what I am guessing is a lifter is broken. I found a local set of rebuilt heads on Craigslist. So I am trying to make a deal for them. Overall its not in bad shape. The...

    Already been looking around and I think I'm going to install a Frankenlift with some Al's UCA's. I have a Rock Lizard front bumper on my XJ. I think I got one of the last ones he made for them. That guy is difficult to deal with but the bumper is really nice.

    Thx guys! Anyone ever poured Seafoam straight down the TB with it running? I did that on the XJ a couple of times and Seafoam works really good on carbon.
