    Who has the highest milage?

    I know it's OT for this thread, but I think my wife's KJ is the winner. It's an '03 and we just turned 35K miles on it last week.

    Getting a replacement part

    I'd also recommend Ebay/Craigslist as well. My wife wrecked a front flare on her KJ last year, and I found a replacement for under $50 on Ebay that was already silver - taken off a KJ that got hit hard on the opposite side. Hopefully your neighbor in MI can hook you up though!

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    If you and your wife are that tall, your baby will hit the 20 lbs. mark long before he/she is 2 years old - don't worry about it. Then just swap into a front-facing seat and all will be well. The way the carseat laws read, it's either 2 years old OR 20lbs. - whichever comes first. Your baby and...

    My $12 Score At The Junkyard...

    Yeah, I really lucked out with this place. I only paid $125 for the door for my XJ - that included a perfect door panel, outside electric mirror, and window. Thanks for all the compliments guys!!!

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    QFT! That's the only thing I dislike about my wife's KJ. When our kids needed the stroller, you could fit that in the back, and then you couldn't put anything else back there - forget about groceries or buying stuff in the mall if you already have to pack the stroller in. My XJ has a lot more...

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    First off, congrats on the upcoming baby!! We also used the Graco setup with the permanent base latched to the rear seat, and removable bucket to carry the baby in. We kept that for a year, then our kids graduated to the front facing seat which is much easier. We didn't have any issues with the...

    Anyone Have A Spare Tire Cover?

    Hey all, I'm looking for a stock spare tire cover - needs to fit a stock 235/65-17 tire, and needs to be in excellent shape. I've searched Ebay, but really don't want to spend that kinda money. Please post or PM if you have one available!

    My $12 Score At The Junkyard...

    I was up at a junkyard a few months ago picking up a door for my XJ, and while my brother-in-law and I were wandering around, we came across an '03 KJ that was turned in on the C4C program. I poked around inside, and noticed it had the MOPAR rubber floor mats. So I brought them up to the desk...

    My 2008 KK mods are finally done.

    I like the paintwork done on the hood/grille! IMO, I think your KK needs some wheel spacers just to make it look more agressive. Enjoy it!

    tire replacement advice

    I put a set of Destination A/Ts on my XJ and really like them. They're quiet, and are awesome in the snow and rain.

    How did you end up with your KJ?

    When my wife and I came back from our honeymoon in Sept. of '02, she decided it was time to replace her '93 Buick Regal - she owned it for 10 years, can ya blame her? We've had good luck with Jeeps (my mom owned an '87 XJ from '88-'99, and a '99 WJ from '99-'08 or so) and my dad was friendly...

    Gauges... What do you miss?

    Yep, those gauges are from a pre-97 XJ, with aftermarket white-face overlays. And I agree, I hate that my wife's KJ doesn't have a voltmeter or oil pressure gauge. My '01 XJ has them, and even my '88 Monte SS has those gauges.

    Tires

    Oh, they had tons of tread left, they were 7 years old and starting to dry-rot. We bought her KJ new in Sept. of '02, and it only had 32K miles on it in May of '09.

    Tires

    My wife's '03 Limited had the 235/70 SRAs and I didn't think they were that terrible - you had to take it easy on them from a launch in the rain, but anything RWD needs to be driven carefully in those conditions. They were just great in the snow, especially with it in full-time. They were...

    245/75 16 Goodyear MTR - Never Used! $100!!

    I haven't put it on CL yet; figured I'd give my fellow Jeepers a few days to bite on it first. I did get to snap a few pics today, in case anyone else is interested.

    245/75 16 Goodyear MTR - Never Used! $100!!

    I bought a set of Rubicon wheels for my Cherokee today, and they came with a previously mounted, but unused 245/75 16 Goodyear MTR. It still has the original stripes and nubs on it. This is one bad-ass tire, with reinforced sidewalls and a serious tread pattern. They were nearly $200 a piece...

    WTB in NJ/NY - KJ Freedom/Limited 17" Wheels/Tires

    Hey all, I'm looking for a set of wheels like these for my Cherokee. They can be either the all-silver version, or the silver/dark gray version, as long as it's a set of 4. I'm hoping to find a set with good tires on them, somewhere within a reasonable driving distance of North Jersey, near...
