hello 92expeditionxj, It sounds like your XJ is pretty well equipped to handle its own, off the beaten path. Though, you may not really know what you need or don't need until you finally take it off the beaten path on a short trip. Once you've experienced what you are lacking for the type of...

I hardly chime in here on the forum, but I enjoy the ZJ! FeFrank, with that many miles on your ZJ, I'd definitely look into maintenance and replacing worn out parts to keep from being stranded off the beaten path. Do you have any of the receipts or maintenance history from the previous...

Thanks, it took quite a bit of work total. About 20 hours total, because we had to remove everything. I'm really enjoying the KJ, even though it isn't mine exactly. It belongs to my brother, though I do get the pleasures (HA) of working on it. I do have a few concerns though, 1. Part time...

After a full 10 hours wrenching on the Jeep, I managed to correct the problem. If anyone is interested, I made a 2004 fuel module wiring harness work on a 2003 Liberty Sport. I ended up cutting the 2004 connector that attaches to the leak detection pump (finally found the name of it) off of...

Thanks a lot!

I've been here a while, lurking and was wondering if some of you may be able to help me on my recently acquired 2003 Jeep Liberty Sport. To start off the story, I originally thought that this particular liberty was a 2004 Sport. I included the brief history because I may end up asking more...

Your ZJ looks great! This guy's build is a pretty great one when it comes to the Grand Cherokee that I've followed for a bit. http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/77201-98-Jeep-ZJ-quot-SHTFV-quot?highlight=shtf

I don't own a Cherokee (I own a Grand Cherokee), but upon my stumbling through the internet I've noticed a common problem that happens with certain XJ's that has to due with a cracked cylinder head in later year models. Here's a thread from CherokeeForum...

What year Jeep? Around here (Indiana) if you own an 1996 or newer vehicle with OBDII, diagnostics can be run on your vehicle at your local parts store.

Thanks for the quick replies, I think the first link was exactly what I was looking for. I think that would suit our needs perfectly.

I've recently embedded the idea of a "family vacation" within my mother, brother, girlfriend, and her child. When I was a kid, we never really went on any family vacations and I thought it might be an insightful journey for all of us to experience together. We'll end up saving up over time...

I redid my headliner, and have a decent little write up of it on the JeepForum on my very SLOOOOOOW build thread. Mine's also a ZJ, but it should be relatively the same. I used DAP Weldwood Contact Cement and I used a paint brush to brush it on, though it has started to sag again and I'll...

Man, I'm really digging some of the modifications and creature comforts that you've implemented. I've seen the HVAC controls swapped to the radio spot before, but I've never seen the VIC swapped to the radio spot. Very clean modifications, I may have to borrow some of your modifications in the...

I actually used the stuff on my wheels probably 4-5 months ago. I was amazed at how well it's been holding up and how easily it was applied. But for a whole car with way more surface area, i'm not sure how well it would hold up. You could always paint something such as the hood to sort of test...

Great looking Jeep! I've looked through quite a bit of your pages over on Jeep Forum when I happen to stumble upon the build.

Hahaha, this is great! I still have a HUGE tote of lego odds and ends in my closet. I may just have to break it out.

Don't know if your SHTFV just stands for human error, or possibly undead apocalypse but all of the lighting reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO5W4s11l9c (Couldn't find a picture, just a video) Very Cool. :cool:

This is great, and I can't wait to see more! I've been considering a trip of this sort as my first overlanding experience.

If your dad's a metal fabricator by profession, you seem to have a great upper hand if you ever decide to build some armor like rock sliders or bumpers. Great looking roofrack! Not all mechanics are bad, but I have yet to find one that I truly trust. Haha. Also, digging the Coheed sticker on...

Great looking Cherokee, I'm rather partial to this style. Learning to work on your own vehicle will save you loads of time and money. I've saved so much cash from working on my own vehicles, that going to a dealer or repair shop literally scares me and I learned the same way that you plan on...
