    A new Jeep followed me home too

    My JK has 18" rims and along side another JK with 16" rims it's noticeably taller.

    Bad TPS, do I need a Mopar replacement?

    I had a 1990 XJ for 13 yrs. I replaced the TPS twice with an after market one during the first 6-7 yrs before replacing with a factory one so there maybe some truth in what JPN said. That TPS was still working correctly when I sold it.

    Chrome Capped Lug Nuts 🤬

    I've never seen a lug nut strip out like that. Could you take a chisel and turn the nut? A lot of modern vehicles have those stupid chrome lug caps. I bought my JK brand new and when I went to rotate the tires the first time one cap was missing and several came off. I complained to the dealer...

    Unusual brake issue

    A faulty speed sensor can apply the brakes usually during or after a turn and be fine the rest of the time.

    Unusual brake issue

    A faulty speed sensor can engage the brake but that normally just affects one wheel - which will get hot. But that won't cause a wobble as far as I know.

    Serpentine Belt issue

    It's been a long time since I had an XJ but seems like the belt was always a tad narrower than the pulley.

    CC skimming

    I had to get a new card earlier this yr. They told me 10 days unless expedited. I asked how much that cost and they said no charge. I got my new card in 1-2 days.

    Lawn woes

    I have mountain property and barely any soil under the sod. Took me over 20 yrs to get it all green and I have no aspirations of a weed free lawn. Good thing too as last year our great granddaughter came over, pulled out a sandwich bag full of dandelions and proceeded to blow them across the yard.

    Accident Woes

    Did you discuss the paint sag with them? Personally that sag would bug me every time I used the jeep since it's on the driver's side.

    Accident Woes

    I'd take it back and make them fix the run along with the door lock. A paint sag in an easily viewed area is never acceptable. No reason for them not to have switched the lock back or at least provide a key for the replacement door.

    1987 Jeep XJ manual window issue

    My stepson used to have a Liberty and both of his back windows quit working [would actually slip down] Since it was rare for anyone to ride in the back seat and to save him money I just propped those 2 windows up. On his there was a plastic gear that stripped out if I remember correctly. Are...

    Jeep TJ oil drain plug gasket - do we need to change this?

    A lot of vehicles specify replacing it but I never have unless it was dripping when tight.

    Fuel Gauge issue

    Maybe cut and splice the wires before they reach the connector ?? That plug on the XJ I used to have was toast and I couldn't find a replacement. I ended up making my own - not really weatherproof but I taped it up. Worked fine for the few more yrs I owned that jeep.

    got another tj

    I'm sure you know this but be sure to pay attention to the gas when you drain it. There is a good chance that tank will need to be cleaned out.

    I got ducked for the very first time

    I've only been driving jeeps for about 25 yrs or so. If I understand correctly the duck thing started during covid ......... and the girl that started it has since passed away. I've been ducked three times.

    Happy New Year 2[emoji[emoji6[emoji640]2][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640]2]]2[emoji6[emoji640]1]

    My jeep is my daily driver except I no longer drive daily. My wife's car goes almost twice as far on a gallon of gas but is a LOT harder for me to get in/out of. It's supposed to start snowing later this morning so I'll need my jeep to go up/down my mountain driveway. 1-3" today and then...
