  1. Any ideas on how to fix this???
  2. Well I was working in the dash to try and find a bad ground that wasn't even there. Well after I did that I lost the radio. But not completely like when I turn it on all I hear is static. And b4 all of the happened th little Light on the memory dx buttonwould turn on but now it doenst
  3. I'm not sure what is going on with my radio. It seems to work but I cannot seem to get any stations. I think I may have lost connection with the antenna. How could I fix this? and what fuses on the fuse panel are involved with the radio?
  4. There aint nothing unproportional about my truck.
  5. I've got one thing to say to all you guys dissing the lwb METRIC TONNE!
  6. thanks, I'm definitely bringing a shovel along and some boards because the last time I got stuck I got stuck bad. I was axle deep in mud with nothing to dig out with. A friend of mine and I found some logs and tried to put them under the tires to get traction but it didnt work. We found a smaller reflector sign from the side of the road and used it as a shovel. We still couldn't get it to budge. Well finally after a while I had a friend of mine come help me with his big lifted F-150 (I'm srry I was desperate and I had yet to get anyone's number from the jeep club) well after some contemplating we finally attached a chain to the tow ball on my rear bumper, again I apologize because I know this was stupid and unsafe. Well we finally got my truck out but now the back of my truck smiles at me :) lol.
  7. I'm not sure. I can handle mud alright. I just joined my local jeep club. The Ocala Jeep Club and they go on monthly trail rides through the Ocala National Forest. A bunch of people have told me I'll be fine.
  8. well I guess I'll just have to figure out something for the trail ride next weekend. being only 2wd I'm bound to get stuck somewhere.
  9. well its a good thing I asked on here before I just bolted it onto the frame behind the front bumper.
  10. I just got some tow points for my truck. A friend of mine gave me 1 for the front and 1 for the back so I can start going on trail rides with the jeep club. I was wondering where I could mount them?
  11. well I just rotated my tires. I don't think its been done since the they've been on the truck. They're 31x10.5 Maxxis Buckshot Mudders and the fronts had about 2x more tread than the rear. Well I got done putting the front tires on the back and the back on the front and the rear end lifted up almost an inch. wow.
  12. Well I just got a new carb today. The truck runs great now. I've got my mind set on the 3.4 because its really hard to find a cheap Cherokee around here right now. However there are several 3.4 cameros and firebirds sitting around in jys around here so I think thats the direction I think I'm going. If only I had the money to do this..... :dunno:
  13. well I want a tire that does well both on and off road. I'm joining my local jeep club this saturday and will be going on monthly trail rides. So I'm looking for something that could hold its own on the street and on the trail.
  14. yeah. and that $850 online was for 5 not 4. Tire Kingdom was gonna charge $1050 for 4.
  15. thats true. Tire Kingdom was going to charge me $1050 for 4 of the General grabbers and I found them for about $860 on that website.
  16. Those look pretty nice. I don't really like tire kingdom they're really pricey. I'm thinking about getting whatever tire I pick online and then go somewhere to get them mounted. I found this site but I'm not sure if its legit. Everything is really cheap. http://www.tires-easy.com/start.html As for the General Red-Letter Grabber they're advertised as a mixed terrain. They say they were "raised from the baja, tamed for the street" I think they look really sweet but I'm not sure howd they perform.
  17. So this morning I was driving to school. I guess it rained or something the night before because the street was wet. I went to take a turn and fish tailed several times before gaining control. It was extremely fun but kinda scary at the same time because I gained control only a few feet away from a street sign that I would have wrapped my bed around. Well here's the tire issue. Right now I have 31"x10.5"x15" Maxxis Buckshot Mudders. The tires are alright but I kind of just like them for their size. I am planning on getting some new tires next month or so and was thinking about getting some all terrains. I'm debating on going down to the stock tire size or keeping the 31's. I'm also not sure what tires to get. I recently fell in love with the look of the new General Tire grabber. I think they look really sick. But I still really like the BFG All-Terrains. I'm not sure what to get. Any suggestions? P.S. I'm kinda leaning toward these:
  18. I think I'm gonna go in the direction of 86FUBAR and just upgrade to the 3.4
  19. I'll prolly just do that cuz there's several zj's sitting at the junkyard nextdoor to my girlfriends house. I just need to figure out what shocks to get.
  20. Ok I'll start with that. I still have stock shocks so that could be why its a little rough. What's the best brand and shock type to upgrade to?
  21. well what should I look for to upgrade the ride and add about an inch or 2 of list? I've got the 2.8L v6 with the metric tonne package so I'm guessing I've already got some bit of an upgrade in suspension due to the metric tonne package but I'm looking for a little more height and comfort.
  22. Well I was thinking about getting new coils cuz I thought it might make my ride a little smoother than just putting coil spacers. So how much am I looking at for good shocks? and like is there certain things to look for in shocks? Like length or anything?
  23. ok I think I'm going to just find some zj v8 coils with those spacers and maybe a hell creek aal in the back. Now the next question. What should I do for shocks? I really want a more comfortable ride. My truck is starting to ride rough.
  24. I know theres an issue with rubbing on the lower control arms. I've heard to swap out for wj lower control arms. I was wondering if these would work and alleviate rubbing. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JEEP-COM ... 230cf15f94
