    Don't deal with "pak-n-ship" on eBay

    I paid for priority shipping w/insurance. I didn't get any insurance info from the shipper or the shipping company. It's not a big deal, I'm just a little ****ed that it arrived not as described, and the guy won't do anything about it. It plays fine after the neck adjustment, but I had to pay...

    Don't deal with "pak-n-ship" on eBay

    I won a Fender Bass guitar off eBay from pak-n-ship. It arrived damaged. The guy claims the neck was striaght, but it wasn't. The neck was loose and bowed, and the pickups buzzed. The guy was a real A-hole when I contacted him about it. I took the guitar to a music store and they adjusted the...

    biggest tires on a stock YJ

    I've seen people run 31"-10's on stock YJ suspension. The front tire always wears an arch in the fender flares, and rubs the frame during hard turns. It can be done though.

    Jeep bug!

    His CJ has the same carb your YJ has. AMC/Jeep used the same carburetor from 1982-1990' on Jeep Cherokee/Wagoneer(fullsize), CJ's, YJ's, AMC Eagles, Concords, etc. The rear end is an AMC Model 20 with 2 piece axles. The 2-piece axleshaft/hub design is the weak point. 1-piece axle kits are...

    rear diff yoke busted

    Bring lots of beer, and a lot of elbow grease... If you sheared the yoke off it probably came from the pinion shaft seal.

    front axle seal help....

    I dealt with this before. I did a write-up on JeepHorizons about it. I bought the seal/bearing press tool to put the new seals in. The tool was expensive, but I have 4 Jeeps that have these seals, and it has already paid for itself. I was done in 20 minutes with this tool. If the drivers side...

    Aluminum Wheel painting?

    First off, hello fellow Ohioan.. I've painted aluminum wheels before. Your best bet is to sandblast the wheels to get the best adhesion. That's what I did to an old set of 5 spoke Wrangler/Cherokee wheels. I used XO-Rust, it penetrated the aluminum, and stuck like glue. They looked great...

    My new XJ

    I wanted to comment on your comment, I about fell out of my chair laughing at that one, LOL! The guy I got it from is loaded. He owns his own company, and is not short on cash by any means. He told me he wanted to buy a new Hemi powered Grand Cherokee, and he probably will. He buys a new car...

    My new XJ

    Right now I'm using the Cherokee as a road trip machine, so I'm going to buy regular shocks for now. When I finally put the lift on I plan on having a spare trans/transfer case with a "good" set of slip yoke eliminators, not the cheap hack and tap ones with splines & shafts that shear/break off...

    My new XJ

    The Cherokee got a new set of shoes and aluminum wheels yesterday. It still could use new shocks, but it rides way better now. I got Goodyear Wrangler tires mounted & balanced w/lifetime road hazzard warranty for $300 out the door.
