    Wrecked

    The kid wrecked the Jeep. Havent heard from the insurance creeps yet but its clearly totalled. She is okay, thankfully. Glad these things are built like tanks. This is exactly why we bought this vehicle...to take care of her when she is alone. Some douchebag on the highway cut in front of...

    Brainstorm request...remote oil level gage?

    So I have a little problem... My daughter's KJ consumes oil at a little over a quart every thousand miles. She drives a LOT so the oil pan gets emptied out pretty fast. When I'm around, its not a big deal because I can stay on top of it. Unfortunately, I spend a lot of time away from home...

    U Joint lessons learned

    Replaced my front U joint on the prop shaft yesterday. Never done this job before so I learned a lot... -Dont try to do it in place. Just take off the shaft and do it on the bench. I wasted quite a bit of time trying to avoid taking it out. -The bench vice is solid gold for this job...

    Troubleshooting squeaky noise

    Okay, I made a thread about this a while back and got some ideas but never really resolved anything because I didnt make it a priority at the time so Id like to ask again: The 05 limited is making a squeaky/chirping noise related to wheel speed. Most noticeable at low speed, not sure if it...

    Aerodynamics

    We all know our gas mileage sucks...thats the price we pay for a bullet proof drivetrain, a frame beefy enough to support two horny elephants gettin it on, and aerodynamic qualities similar to those of a brick. Of those three primary problems, I'm wondering if we can get some gains by...

    Probably stupid question about towing

    So our beloved pickup had to go away due to the math just not adding up at the pump for the number of miles we put on (around 1000 mi/week between the wife and I). Replaced it with a Jetta TDI and the savings have been wonderful. Unfortunately, we sacrifice a great deal of capability going from...
