The last ngk plugs I bought were for a 95 civic.. they were called v-power.. I guess there a spin off of splitfires.. They work just fine in that car.. I'd suspect the jeeps would be the same thing, but IDK

Here you go... Those ford ranger/exploder wheels don't look that bad.. WTH is your excremental brake system????? EDIT: on another note this jeep was a demonstration vehicle for an inventor. the guy i bought it off of's dad bought the truck to install a brake monotoring system that he invented. From what i understand, it lights a small LED on the dash for each corresponding wheel when that wheels brake pads get low. ....If you ask me .. its a great idea, most people never know they have low brake pads untill inspection or they hear that nasty grinding noise. Pretty cool ,, I wonder how it senses the pad height....

Really.. hummm I like the feel of these.. Well the only Kobalt tools I have is the torx socket set and a driver socket set.. They feel heavy and like I said they replaced them for free.. But yeah taskforce SUCK for sure..

Jesus! you could send me your locks and keys and i can have this place do it for you! But that price was only for the door lock cylinders. I'd guess the ign would be higher,, I'm sure its not fun going into the column to get the cyl out you know... My dad manages alot of properties and he uses this place all the time.. They have a long and really good rep for locks, safes, and things in that nature. It might be cheaper if I had him to take the locks there too.. :dunno:

Oh yeah thanks Wildman! :D

Yeah I forgot to say thats what the tool guy (I called him Tim "the toolman" Taylor) told me.. I think I'll stick with them for the price.. their pretty economical ..

I have to say I like these tools.. and the no hassle warranty they have.. I busted my T-45 torex 3/8 drive socket taking doors off and went today and without any crap got a whole new set... I was really surprised.. Lowe's came though for me and I just wanted to share !

WTF is that a Chick-fil-A commercial?

lol thats like 95% of all these northerners trucks on this site!! lol some look 100X worse then that!!

It'll probable go for a lil bit more now you called it out..

A little too many brews hey mate?? lol

Has anyone swapped the HO head on the renix block?? How hard is that to do?

. . . OK,,, well you were right Wildman (surprise yeh) ,,, 7 bucks to re-key the door tumblers at the local locksmith.... here's what all I found out today.. Went and talked with the parts guy at the dealer for about an hour.. I should be able to use my 95 key on the 00 doors.. BUT! the keys are different,,, In 94-95 Chrysler/Mopar changed the keys from the gm style to the two (2) sided key.. then in 97 it changed again to a key thats cut seven times other then six (btw, the 94/95's are cut 6 times) BUT,, the key blanks are the same through 94 to 04?? ,,when ever the last xj was put out.. I may have the year models a little off, but whatever years the keys for the xj became 2 sided..... So this means the keys have the same slits on the side just an extra cut.. With this information I called the locksmith and explained to him the situation.. He told me if the blanks are the same all he has to do is code the tumbler to the 96's key and drop two pins out of the 01 doors lock cyl.. I still am going back to the jy to get the vin of the xj that lent me it's column. Take the vin to the dealer and he told me he would make me a new key,, remove the 01 doors lock cyl and take the new key with the tumblers to the locksmiths to get coded.. It was a great day!! The guy at the parts counter is starting to remember me ,,, He already knew what year and blank "J" I was working with..

OK... I was thinking the same thing... The only key I have is for the column.. Now the big question here is... will that two sided key fit in the newer doors lock?? I guess I could try it in the door right quick huh... I'll do that today and call around to see what options I have around here..

heck yeah man theres alot of inspiration around here.. goto the projects treads,, anytime I need motivation I stop in there for it!

Man that looks like crap!! All that lint, smudges,, jesus man.... + You need to get some gas in that thing!! lol j/kin lookin pretty good! oh and one more thing,,, you got shipped today :D sorry no glow in the dark water balloons or tobacco, Steph took it to the PO and she refused to put those things in the mail.... :roll: women,,

Water has a higher boiling point when its under pressure.. What is the system pressure of the closed system?

This crackhead stole my keys this one time and I had to have a locksmith come out ,, the guy made me a key using the lock on the tailgate (96 Rodeo) , I guess I'll call him tomorrow to see if he can key the door locks to match me ign key...... I hope it works out and doesnt cost me a million bucks! :roll:

Nice of you to join our cause!! but one question,, whats so sweet about this mj?? A few guys on here have mj's 10X better looking then that one.. they might not have the axles that one has , but still look as good if not better... IMO :D

Maybe if I took the door to the dealer and said here dude I need a key for this,, here's the vin.. I am making friends with the parts fart at the dealer by the way,,, maybe he'll hook me up!! But it still don't help me figure out which way would be easier to get a single key.. :roll:

yeah sem is the good stuff,, but you guys are forgetting to use a plastic adhesive promoter on a clean oil free piece. sem also makes a plastic prep which is pretty much rubbing alcohol in a can.. When I paint plastic I first wash the stuff down real good with warm soap and water, wipe it down with a cleaner/prep, spray the adhesive promoter, then spray the color.. You want the adhesive sprayed trust me.

OK here's the deal. I got a new column, and doors. I want to get a key that matches everything. The doors are the 97+ ones and the column is out of a 95-96 (it has the two sided key that opens everything) Which way will be easiest to to get everything to the same key? I have no key to the doors right now, but was thinking I could get the xj's vin and have one made from it. now that gives me two keys, but I want to go with only one, so do I get a new ign lock or new door locks?? Oh and I snagged the glovebox lock that matches the column.. Which way will be the easiest?? I don't know but think a locksmith can match my door locks to the ign key??

Best thing I've found to use on those brake lines when their frozen is a good ol' pair of vise-grips.

Anyone have a wiring schematics for 97+ doors ???
