Sold: 2006 CRD Sport in SE TX I am thinking about selling the Jeep to get something a little more fun to drive - like a Mini - with a manual transmission. I'd like to get $8500 for it. Here are the highlights, most of which are in my signature line: 2006 CRD (Diesel) Sport 4wd...

PM'ed you.

Does it have a drain plug, or no?

Dude, this section sucks.

I'm moving to Port Neches this weekend from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. My company put me on a 1.5 to 2 year assignment at Motiva in Port Arthur, and my wife got a job in Beaumont, so we chose Port Neches. Would like some ideas on M&G's and wheeling destinations around SE Texas. Anybody in the...

x2. I installed the JBA 2.5" on my CRD last week, and there is more height adjustability to the lift than I will use.

That's the one I'm talking about! Those cheesy plastic "Jeep" covers don't do it for me. I'd like to change out the rear bumper skin too for the Euro with the reflectors down low.

No, the springs aren't Unobtainium, but there is more room between the top plate and the clevis than a traditional seperate coilover top and bottom. They may eventually sag to the point where if you adjust tighter the springs will bind, but it would take a long, long time - longer than most...

It's hard to compare it to the OME, sice I never had one installed, but I'm very happy with the ride of the JBA lift. It's pricey, but it's the only suspension you'll need for the life of the Jeep, since you can crank down on the collars if the front starts to sag. It absorbs road...

I voted for the darker one simply because due to the color of your Jeep, the desert camo will look like faded out regular camo at first glance. I'd like to get one of the hardcase tire covers I see on the Euro KJ's.

Go to http://www.jeep.com/webselfservice/jeep/index.jsp?screenName=customer&country=us&emailUrl=goToEmailForm%28%27R%27%29 and click the "send us an email" link. Email them from there and they will send you the build sheet. FYI it will be a text email, and will take a little deciphering.

I ordered the 2.5" lift because of the CV angles on the CRD not being able to go higher without machining the face of the CV. That's big $$$. When I received the kit, the height adjusters (collars) on the strut were already set. So when we needed to raise the collars to compress the piston...

We ended up using an 18mm 3/8ths socket with attached knuckle, and three extensions. You still have to push brake lines uncomfortably far out of the way because the ETC module sits directly above the bolt location. You can't see it, only feel it. How glad am I that Chrysler used flag bolts...

Thanks, ridenby. Yello, it wouldn't have been nearly as much of a hassle if the instructions had been more detailed, and written for this particular lift rather than recycled Skyjacker instructions. If that had been the case, the brake lines had been correct, and we hadn't been installing...

Ok, here goes. This is long, so long-post haters, turn back now. . . Bub (KJ 119/ One One Niner) came up from Metairie (New Orleans) and met me at Lee's (mcinfantry) house in Watson (who has a full 2-post vehicle lift) on Saturday for the lift install. Much love and thanks to those two...

Wow mudd, really? Did that seriously happen?

AFAIK we're on. Haven't heard from mac, but I think he was out this weekend anyway. Hopefully he'll pipe up on Tuesday. As far as I know, the only wild card is whether Marlin can get me the kit by the fourth. He had everything in stock; my Skyjacker rear coils have already shipped and should be...

Tres bien, monsieur - merci.
