    I didn't buy a Jeep for gas mileage... it has all the aerodynamics of a brick!

    4 pin flat trailer wire connector????

    Since the Libby has amber turn signals, the wiring requires a tail light converter.

    Clevis lift help

    Something I did with mine... I removed the bolt from the strut end of the clevis, then installed it backwards. As you tighten it the clevis opens right up. Rich

    265/70/17's and wheel spacers...

    I have 245/70R17s and had trimmed until they didn't rub. Then I added 1.25 spacers and, as expected, the rubbing moved outward... had to do some more trimming. Still I love the wider stance. Rich

    Towing Experiences

    A month after we bought our KJ, we also wanted a travel trailer. We wanted all the conveniences of the large trailers so we opted for a large pop-up: the 14' Fleetwood Arcadia, 3250# UVW, 3950# GVW. One of the major factors in towing with a small vehicle is wind resistance. We felt this...

    I installed the Rusty's and these links were of tremendous help. Maybe they can give you some tips for installing your frankenlift. Rich http://www.lostkjs.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=15164 http://www.lostkjs.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=24819

    revo?

    I went to Discount Tire to buy the Revos since that was the best tire available in 17". The sales guy showed me the new BFG M/T KM2, which is a hybrid of the M/T KM and the Krawler KX and also available in 17". The tread design is like the Krawler but with more sipes to make it street legal. I...

    Head lights on and off

    I had it happen on my old ZJ, but only the head lights. Since the headlight switch tested OK I traced the wires into the steering column. I found that the wire that plugs into the hi-beam switch had worked itself loose. (probably from tilting the steering wheel) Pushed the plug in and problem...

    M/T's vs MPG

    I've only had the M/Ts for a little over a week now but the evic says I'm now getting 12mpg in town. Was getting 15 before. I know the speedo is off about 5% (according to the guy at Discount Tire) by going from 235/65 to 245/70. So is the evic wrong? "...your mileage may vary."

    Laredo CP 4x4 3rd Annv. Run

    I'm in Pasadena, near Houston. Was in Galveston this past weekend and did some wheelin' at San Luis Pass at the far west end of Galveston Island. Not too serious, though... tried to stay out of trouble since I was by myself. But, the KJ did great in the sand

    tongue weight

    My $.02: I tow a 3800# pop-up camper... I bought the Curt hitch because the receiver is shorter and does not affect the departure angle as much. If you are not worried about that, the Draw-Tite is about 4-5 inches longer and items like bike racks will clear the spare tire better. The...

    Front end sag with Rusty's???

    Is it possible to add 3/4" poly spacers after front end sag begins? (without compromising CV angles)

    Happy Day (somewhat)

    The kids are the reason I opted for the KJ instead of another TJ. We are a family of 5 now and the TJ only seats 4. My 7 year old loves wheelin' in the KJ. We even have a couple of RC Jeeps and he had a Power Wheels Jeep since he was 4. He's hooked.
