    DirecTV, Dish Network, Comcast or other?

    I have Comcast and don't like them. The prices go up and up and you don't get anything new to show for it. In fact, they take stuff away and put it in subscription ($) packages, like the NFL network. The DVR freezes up and just generally acts buggy too, and I have had 3 different boxes of 2...

    How to remove the heater control knobs without destroying them

    No prob. If you come up with a good way to glue the knobs you already pulled off back on, let me know. I've got a vent knob in need of gluing.

    How to remove the heater control knobs without destroying them

    You aren't supposed to pull the knobs off. You'll never get them back on as well again, and if your controls are has hard to move as mine, they won't stay on when you pull them. The aftermarket ones don't seem to be tough enough... I have gone through a few vent cables b/c the knob pops off...

    Led Zeppelin are definitely reforming...

    You can't beat Zep. I'm disappointed to read its only one show and its on the wrong side of the Atlantic. I saw Page and Plant back in '98 and it was a great show.

    Problems with my new wrangler

    I use ceramic. Work well for me, and that was stock on my 00 XJ. There's nothing wrong with turning the rotors. There is a minimum rotor thickness specified for each vehicle. Any reputable brake shop and the Jeep dealer will turn a set of rotors rather than put a new set on if the thickness...

    Keepin the dog in...

    I have a short leash for my golden that I tie around the center of the roll bar. Its just enough room for her to move around, but she hits the end when she gets to sticking her head out. She did jump once. Luckily I was crawling in traffic and paying attention. She rubbed on the side wall of...

    Need help to ID my jeep engine

    The auto transmission and Quadratrac transfer case were not offered from the factory on the CJ5. Otherwise, drivetrain options should be the same as CJ7s of the same year.

    I never knew that grass could go ahh...

    Our power went out, so no power = no sump pump. It just backed up through the pit. Fun. Neighbors that lived here 20 yrs+ said they've never needed a battery back-up, and I've seen some pretty nasty storms without problems (with the power out) so I didn't spend the $. Now I guess I will...

    Valve cover hang up

    I wouldn't grind the rocker. If you don't mind appearances for now and its just a little bit, maybe you can beat the valve cover out with a hammer. Or like you said, cut it up and weld in a patch piece. Better make sure its not hitting anywhere else as your engine turns over.

    You have to have an ignition module. Getting rid of the ECM would be the "Nutter bypass."

    post-81 258 intake manifold

    Hey, if you check out ebay, don't forget that the 258/232 came in AMC cars, not just Jeeps.

    Intake for 4.0 Head swap

    That surprised me as well when I did my 4.0 head swap on my 79. That cast iron thing just isn't going to work. Looks like you spent some time cleaning it up and painting it... Oh well. I picked up an aluminum intake off ebay for 30 or 40 bucks. The area under the carb will interfere with...

    What does your Jeep do for you?

    My daily driver is a completely stock 00 XJ. Its seen some farm trails and mud. When its nice out, my daily driver becomes my 79 CJ-7. Its seen light trail use and many sunny days since I rebuilt it 2 years ago.

    Done with Jeepz.com for Good

    Here's another long time Jeepz.com member that won't be sad if SW doesn't come back. Its about time. Its nothing personal and I wish him well. I just see him as the catalyst to much of the garbage that has made me question whether I really like this board as much as I used to. Let's talk...

    Audio Wiring

    That quadratec listing is what I have. You might be able to find them cheaper on ebay. Just look for jeep speaker boxes, or something similar.
