Thanks. Originally, I took the rack off and just put the tent on top. I found out pretty quick that it really limited the amount of gear I could carry and turned my XJ into a 2 seater, since I had to put down the back seat to fit all my gear. I ran across the low profile military case (Viper...

That was probably me. Not too many XJ's quite like mine around, ha ha. You caught me on one of rare trips to Starbucks most likely. The rack is painted red since that pic was taken though, and I've also made and installed a front receiver mounted gas can / battery rack

Never had an issue at all with either. It's not like I'm rock crawling with it up, :jumping: , lol. That's just a disclaimer IMO, for liability purposes. If they didn't state that, I can see some yahoo running some trail with it up and want them to warrant it when they tweak the frame or...

I have a Maggiolina Airlander too, (Small), on my XJ and am in Covina if you want to take a look. Got it on ebay (like new) for about 1/2 price of new. Best investment I ever made. Yea, the off-camber stuff can be a challenge sometimes, but can be offset (to a degree) with some driving...

Plan on replacing the head on that 2000 4.0 since they are known to crack due to bad castings. It's not a matter of "if" it will crack, but "when". So find a donor from a 97-99. '00 - 01 bad heads casting number = 0331 Good casting number = 0630 If you use a flashlight and look through the...

Instead of a straight shifter (automatic) the XJ has, you can install a Grand Cherokee shifter (Curved T-handle only) from the junkyard, which will gain you a few inches and might be enough rather than do what your'e suggesting. The T-handles just pull off, but take some umph. There is a write...

If it sounds to good to be true........... ......It usually is. This looks more and more like it's all been a scam... :Wow1: Too bad too. I would have seriously considered buying one of these. http://www.meetearl.com/#features

I'll tell you what I do, since I don't have a professional crimping tool. I cut back the wire insulation about an inch past the lug. Before crimping, I dip the end of the wire in soldering flux, then install and crimp the (copper) lug. Then I take my propane torch and heat the lug and wire...

I'll add a suggestion here, that you take one more step. You want to find a Ignition "on" hot wire, that's true. However, I would try and find one that that is "NOT" energized when the ignition is switched to the "Accessory" position. That way your batteries are still isolated when your engine...
