Are there any gotchas or recommendations on replacing torn grease boots on the drag link/tie rod and the steering knuckle/tie rod? Two of them are leaking grease after a little mild trail riding this weekend. I'm thinking that I just loosen the bolt, use a tie rod puller to separate the parts,...

try a local wholesale plumbing or piping supply house like ferguson or try www.grainger.com Also, local wholesale heating and airconditioning shops sell far superior insulation for the pipes alot cheaper, and probably have the tape as well. -- Message posted via http://www.carkb.com

IN OCTOBER WILL MARK 2 YEARS SINCE I PURCHASED THE JEEP FROM HELL. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT HAS BEEN A TREMENDOUS UNDERTAKING. I BOUGHT IT THINKING THAT I COULD RESTORE IT AND SINCE IT ALREADY HAD THE LIFT, 33X15.50X15 SWAMPER TSL/SX TIRES AND NEW AQUAMAX TRAIL SEATS AND CUSTOM DASH WITH AUTOMETER...

Hi, changing a front end u joint the right side. 1st time doing this. Before i go ahead start this weekend thought I would ask if anyone has a good "How to" step by step web page or anything else? So I might make quicker,safer work of this task. Although I have help, I have been told if I do this...

anyone here have a website i can look up engine casting #'s to find out what the motor i just got with my cj rolling chassis is? thought it to be 258 and that is what i was told but i am having my doubts now that it is home. any help greatly appreciated thanks

There are 6 bolts that hold the skid plate / tranny onto the frame of a CJ. Well mine only has 4 with good threads, the other two have just enough thread bite to hold in the bolt, any more than that and they just twist. What is the best method to repair this? I hate helicoils, and if I drill our...

I just finished installing an interior roll bar light in my YJ. I used wire ties to fasten it to my rollbar cover. I used one of the cheap lights off ebay that use a standard bulb with one wire to the center and a cheap push on push off type switch. The tip I have is by running three wires you can...

I've heard there is a web-site with a service manual for my 98 cherokee....does anyone know the address? Thanks.

Well gang, I made it back out to the woods today and took some pictures of that strange (to me) Jeep. It looks like you guys were right about the engine (big surprise!), it does look like it says Jeep Tornado 230 on the cam cover. The carburetor was missing and I not only didn't see a distributor...

Hey all, Last night the right blinker on my '98 TJ starting blinking in some kind of turbo speed. I know this usually means you have a light burned out. I checked all bulbs on the right site and they're all good, what do I do next? Thanks!

Ok, I got under the TJ and dropped the pinion a little (adjusting the UCAs accordingly). I still have vibration at 55+. This weekend I'll probably drop it a little more to see if that does the trick... I guess the option is put spacers on the t-case skid, but it doesn't seem like I should have to...

I have a '95 Jeep YJ and I too cannot shift into 4wd. I vacuum tested the shift motor and it seems to hold the vacuum. I changed the gear oil in it today and cleaned the shift motor, still nothing. Then i read about the vaccuum switch on the transfer case being the possible culprit and I...

Hi ALL, 92 XJ Laredo 4.0 auto 4WD . The driver side u-joint is loose. Shall I replace the whole axle shaft or just the u-joint. Should I replace both side at the same time? thank you for any commments

Anybody know what may cause my 1997 TJ's bright beams to quit working? Regular beams are fine. When you turn the brights on, the fog lights and the headlights just turn off. Any idea's? I'm stumped. Brian Tanksley

Here are some of the video's I've taken with the Nova Scotia Jeep Club over the last 6 months or so... the dl times aren't the fastest...they are on my friends FTP server... Enjoy! Jeff '03 TJ & '95 ZJ

On Tuesday I brought my Jeep (01 Sahara) in for service. Standard stuff, change the transfer case fluid, check the breaks, oil change, and adjust the 4x4 lever. (Previously if you pulled back to the 4x4 high location it would be in neutral.. you had to be in the middle of the position to be in...

It seems as though the only people that know about a 258 are in this group! If I go to the shop for _anything_ motor wise, I'm told about the blow-by (bad rings etc.). I'm guessing they're wanting to charge me for a rebuild?! Anywhoo, question is this. I'm starting (well have been), hearing some...

Ok Everyone, wish me luck, I'm heading to the garage to install my new Rubicon lift......I may be callin for help!!! :) -- Message posted via http://www.carkb.com
