    po441 - ? what now?

    something in the residual fuel line to or from the evap canister or if your lucky a faulty or loose gas cap. The newer the jeep the more complex - rediculusly simple things like that are, and worse when you get a problem.

    help removing steering stabilizer

    Like bony said, its a taper fit. smack the hell out of the tie rod (or isnt that the drag link?), perpendicular to how the stud goes through with a 3+lb mini sledge. it should drop right out. Just like popping out ball joints.

    Tune up and Diagnostic- Exhaust Leak Repair Options?

    Tires can be chopped from out of balance - going wheeling increases the chance of tossing a weight. The DW can begin there, reverberate, escalate and scare the hell out of you. New dampner may help, (basically hide the worn steering components you may have) but that is all it will do. If you...

    Recommendation for Jeep Paint Job

    Exterior -> Maaco. Its cheap, so when you scratch it up, you wont be upset about it. Interior -> Herculiner. ive done it (see my links) it cost $100, for the kit at any good parts store. Itll take you longer to pull the seats, prep etc, it can easily be done in a weekend.
