    Remove a wheel lock

    My McGard wheel lock key also was ziptied to the tire iron, under the rear passenger side seat.

    Liftgate strut replacement

    Well, original online supplier cancelled my strut order, so I ordered from Rock Auto. Got them in today and replaced the originals. It was cake. Easier than replacing the windshield wipers even. It was a 10 minute job. The only tool you need is a small flat head screwdriver with which...

    Liftgate strut replacement

    Yeah, I took a look at them. Seems to be pretty straightforward. I ordered replacement struts made by Monroe (part number 901512) from Auto Parts Warehouse. I order 2, at $25/per. APW is a little more expensive than some other places on the web, but usually have discount coupons (I found...

    Liftgate strut replacement

    The gas struts that hold open the glass on the flipper gate are getting a little tired. I think I can probably replace these myself, but wanted to see if anyone else has done so can confirm it is a do-it-yourself type job before ordering the parts (about $37 per strut). Anyone? Thanks,

    HOW TO: change serpentine drive belt (3.7L)

    So, if I understand you right, the tensioner pulley should be under tension (on a spring-loaded arm or something similiar), so that it pulls back counter-clockwise automatically? Mine stopped doing that all the sudden tonight, resulting in an immediate loss of power steering, A/C, and...

    Safety Recall G03 - KJ BLOWER MOTOR

    I mean, really, the only thing that changed for '06 was cosmetics, right? How are all these things going wrong (3 recalls in the first 15 months of ownership!)? The bugs were supposed to have been worked out. Didn't they read the memo? And my dealer's an hour away. This really sucks.

    Safety Recall G03 - KJ BLOWER MOTOR

    By buying a 2006, I thought that most of the problems would have been figured out by now. Boy was that wrong. Recall #3. This sucks. I've been a loyal Jeep owner, but this is my last one.

    Less than Flattering Review

    Obviously, it all depends on what you are looking for. I wanted a smaller, more maneuverable vehicle for the city, especially since most of the time I'll be parallel parking on narrow, crowded city streets. Cross off the H3. I wanted four real doors. Cross off the FJ Cruiser. I...

    Antenna X

    AntennaX didn't reply to Paypal either. Net result, paypal refunded my money to me. I strongly suggest you don't deal with AntennaX.

    Maybe you can flip the mount to the rise position and try moving the spare tire up with this? http://www.rocky-road.com/kjtirespace.html

    Mopar iPod Integration Kit

    Yes, exactly. Yep, right again. I don't remember where it shows up in the CD, FM, AM lineup though. Okay -- here's the answer on 3. There are two connections in the glove box after the install -- an 1/8" female aux in and an iPod dock connector. They don't work at the same time. If...
