    What the eff did I do wrong?

    Anyone have any pics of what to cut? I swapped mine out and the car thinks the key is always in the ignition, which really messes with the alarm and so on. I've disassembled the ignition switch actuator so many times that I'm very familiar with it, but I don't know specifically what to cut...

    Riding with rear hatch open

    Not sure about the exhaust. The window is angled up so this wouldn't trap via the window. Having it open could, but the stock exhaust doest come directly out of the back either. I guess you should be cautious.

    Help with power windows please

    I've never seen those parts sold separate. In fact when mine broke, I thought it was another regulator and took it to jeep for warranty. They informed me the regulator was fine and that the piece broken was all part of a single dealer part which also included the lift plate regulator. I ended...

    T Case

    2002-2007 have the nv242 or nv231. I believe one is command trac and the other is selectrac. The nv number is stamped on them near the t-case fill hole. But you can supposedly also tell by whether or not your 4wheel drive lever has a neutral position instead of a full time 4wd option. I'm...

    IPCW LEDT-410CB Bermuda Black LED Tail Lamp

    I like LED technology but every time I've ever considered a tail light swap for any car, a few months later I was glad I hadn't cause it was a fad. It is one of the fastest ways to date your car. Use tattoo rules. Never buy tail lights when you're drunk, and always hold off and think about it...

    I've increased MPG's a bit.

    I do, 320 to 360 miles per tank, all day every day. That's 17 to 19 mpg rain or shine. If you account for the tank holding roughly 19 gallons with fill-ups ranging anywhere from 17.x to 18.x gallons, there's my difference in mileage, I basically get almost no difference driving 90% Highway or...

    Riding with rear hatch open

    I've driven with mine open on hot days everywhere you can imagine. I've crossed cement medians diagonally with it up. For the light, just pop the glass open, then reach in the hole where it latches and click it shut as if the window was in there. The car thinks the window is closed. That...

    Yet another window regulator issue

    The Steiger piece is for the plate fix. The regulator itself can go bad for numerous reasons. 1 of my 6 breaks was not the plate, but the long spiral screw instead.

    Dang window dropped AGAIN. 6th time!!! What's the record?

    I'm on my 6th repair now as well. Took it to jeep and they said NO for the first time. Well, they said $390. So I said no and bought an alternate version of the Regulators. Got a pair for $110 for the rear windows. Started with my driver side, and it took about 20min to change. First thing...

    Which Optima Yellow Top and How Much?

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I'm gonna try that Marine P2 from Sears RockyMountain went with. I've heard the marine batteries are a bit higher on the RC values due to the possibilities of being stranded in water.

    No sound on the right side!

    Is it an old amp that has a balance potentiometer? Possibly set to max left while tuning? ;) Otherwise, I say ground somewhere.

    Android Aux input

    The USB on an iProduct is intelligent and was designed to facilitate additional control. The USB on Androids (such as my Evo) is more of a client only connection. Meaning that you won't get any control out of any form of USB connection to an Android at this time. 1st or 2nd quarter of 2012, a...

    Which Optima Yellow Top and How Much?

    The Optima Battery website lists 1 yellow top that fits my 2007 4x4 KJ Sport. The listed part # is "D34 8012-021". Sears says this is a $325 battery while various online retailers claim it(specifically to the part #) can be had as low as $165. However, local retailers are saying generically...

    Local shops recommending 245/75/16 upgrade

    I ended up swapping them out with some street tires. Suppose to put them on tomorrow. The 225/75 Duratrac was a 10ply and that was just way too overkill for my needs. I was fortunate in that Certified Tire took them back and allowed the swap.

    Local shops recommending 245/75/16 upgrade

    Well, I totally went spontaneous on this one and have bit the bullet. :Boo: on me for jumping the gun but gonna ride it out. I have them on my jeep and have done some testing. The only way I've gotten them to noticibly rub so far is sharp turning, which in fairness, so did my stocks. I...

    Local shops recommending 245/75/16 upgrade

    According to the info on this site, such as that summarized on the wiki, the 245/75 will rub with a lift. How is it that numerous local shops are then recommending this size for a stock setup replacement, knowing full well the car is a 2007 which is probably pretty sagged down by now? For a...

    Finally new tires coming

    How many miles would you have gotten if they had the proper pressure and rotation? Also, just tossing this in, know if it comes in the 245/70/16? I'm not lifted, though bigo tried to sell me the rough country lift. =) Forgot to mention, bigo recommended their big foot a/t in the 245/70/16...

    Request info re my KJ, 15" wheels?

    NM, Found your pics! Are the tires in your signature picture the 10.50 or 11.50? I am probably going to copy yours as it looks almost perfect other than you never seem to upload any bigger pictures.... HINT! Off the top of your head, do you know the overall diameter of those two tires...

    What color are Cragar 345 "Silver"

    btw, in the physical Pacer brand catalog at wheelworks, they call it the 345S Daytona and it looks in print to be the gunmetal color as well. I had the wheelworks call for a quote and the Pacer guy said they were "plain" silver. I guess if we really wanted them in a certain color we would be...
