  1. any snowfall to speak of yet?
  2. step one: whatever is the easiest to get it to pass emissions. step 2: LS
  3. do not cut ANYTHING until you get the middle exactly where it goes. and cut a little bit at a time. doesn't take much to hack off 1 inch too much because you didn't realize where the plastic trim actually covers the carpet.
  4. XJs in junkyards are your best bet
  5. people have used XJ carpet before. I can't say how well it worked since I haven't. also I've never seen an old used XJ carpet worth reusing.
  6. floors are looking a bit rough there
  7. oh, that's going to be a fun one tomorrow in the Jeep somehow my laptop speakers don't seem to do it justice
  8. god I love this truck!
  9. missed the official date by a few months, but happy anniversary everyone! a huge thanks to all of you that make this community possible! without you guys/gals this would just be a Wikipedia page.
  10. I rock a 92 XJ radio in my 06 CRD using Jeremy's bluetooth connection. (the white cord is a retractable power cord for my phone) because, why not
  11. nostalgia is good and all but I now rent infinity songs through spotify and can never go back. my playlists are constantly expanding as I find new and old stuff to add plus you can get bluetooth tape adapters so it's kinda like the best of both worlds?
  12. makes your life way harder. it stiffens everything up and makes it super challenging to get it to lay flat against the steel.
  13. try to get one made in Japan. see the link in my signature to find Jeremy's breakdown of all the old radios.
  14. Yukon center console has some new pleather good as new! and for less than 10 bucks!
  15. apparently it's super duper common. the v8 absolutely yanks up with a vengeance each time you gas it. and I can say that it's also a pain in the hands to accomplish the swap.
  16. still freaks me out a bit that I can now accelerate like a normal car. well, a "normal car" if that normal car had a mufflerless diesel.
  17. the tab inside one of my taillight sockets was crushed flat and not contacting the bulb which caused weird issues. also do make sure that you check each socket for continuity in case there's a break inside.
  18. "Dog Train" as sung by Blues Traveler. found on a kids' song album the 4 year old likes. way better than any little kids song should be. enough so that it's been added to my personal "commuting songs" playlist. nothing like blasting some Dog Train right after Slipknot and Public Enemy. what can I say, I likes what I likes.
  19. doing the drivers side motor mount in my sister's old Yukon. guess which one is the old one.
  20. owning a JK/JL does not automatically lead to any interest in older iron. they are into JK/JLs because that is what is cool to them. but people into old iron will flock to old iron, usually regardless of brand. old stuff is cool to people that think old stuff is cool.
