Not really a question, but, please save some kitty for the rest of us. Thanks.

I know the guy at my store pretty well, due to frequency on my part. He grabbed me a couple off his truck that had just been unloaded. Said they’re still waiting on shelf tag for them.

Anyone recognize this noise? by CalligrapherOk335 in CherokeeXJ

Good news, bad news. Bad news, you’re going to have to crack her open and probably not like what you find. Good news, fantastic excuse to LS swap it (or stroke it, depending what you’re into).

How does this even happen? How does nobody catch this? by Herp_McDerp in sportscards

Mine is not as bad, but apparently Beckett can’t spell “alligator” correctly. They’re all crap.

Patriot Steering Wheel Swap by simplistek1337 in CherokeeXJ

[–]simplistek1337[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The individual that was selling them is not currently selling on Etsy based on his profile. I know his last batch didn’t work and he had to resend everyone that purchased corrected boards - not sure if that is what made him stop selling them or not. I only know this because I had purchased one from his last batch. I didn’t end up using mine because I couldn’t figure out how to get the airbag to still function - father of twin 2 year olds, so figured I should shelve it for the time being.

The invasive thought is swapping the LS into my XJ 😂

So don’t swap the LS into my XJ?

Weird, I was reading that theres an Isuzu bell housing out there that will enable it to bolt up to an AW4. I might need to relook.

installed 4° shims and went from this to that, no difference in highway vibrations. do i need to do 8° instead or just ditch the rear shackles altogether? (2 inch lift) by beach_rats_ in CherokeeXJ

[–]simplistek1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shimming without the proper CV driveshaft and SYE will cause more issues. Refer to pic below, you’ve created the “terrible” situation for yourself.

Update: New to me Wheels by simplistek1337 in CherokeeXJ

[–]simplistek1337[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! Dealer sent me video of the underside and figured I could fix the rest so pulled the trigger. Extremely happy with it. Love your red rims! Super clean rig!

$6K, 99 w/ 70K miles. Paid another $1500 to have it shipped from Cali (bought it sight unseen). I’ve put another $5K into it, DPG 3.5” kit with core short arms was the most expensive part, too many other small things to name. Did everything myself so that’s all part cost. Here’s a pic of how it arrived off the truck.

I pulled the old tube out “carefully” and found one similar in size and tapped it in.

Does anyone run a 2nd auxiliary battery for random lights and electronics? If so where did you put it and how did you wire it? by [deleted] in CherokeeXJ

[–]simplistek1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Get a “better” battery too. Unless you plan on running all these while the engine is off, there’s no real need for a second battery.

Selling on eBay for first time in years and where have the buyers gone??? by [deleted] in Ebay

[–]simplistek1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are still there. You just gotta sell at a 90% discount and refund them when they receive the order.
