Replaced stock injectors with the ford upgrades, now the jeeps running rough. Messed up the clip that holds the metal fuel line to the fuel pressure regulator, but fixed that. It's idling REALLY low, and spittin an sputtering at like 25 to 35, but rides smooth at 45 to 50. Ran the tank empty, then when I went to put $25 (which is about half a tank depending on gas prices) the gas gauge barely moved. What's goin on guys I need to find this prob ASAP my best guess so far is that when I ran the tank empty something got sucked up into the fuel filter now it's clogged? :/ it's the DD and I need her back on the road ASAP all help is appreciated thank you guys so much

There should be a lot of resistance between positions and a sort of soft pop once it gets into place. Aside from the actual movement of shft forks internally there is a detent ball with spring inside. The actual locking is provided by the shift gate inside the cab and any rust on the linkage lol
Possibly. Im thinking there is some grease in there thats got too viscous and ain't doing its job. Then again, i have no idea about steering columns.

hey I was wondering what's the best lift for my Jeep2000 Limited on 31 inch 10.5 15 it has a stock lift from the factory but I want to go bigger so my tires look right under my Jeep. so give me your opinions. I'm not cutting my fenders out like I said it's a limited, it has leather heated seats, it's not just a hack job junk cheap piece of junk, Kelley Blue Books for over 6 grand so realistically I want people to give me real opinions.

First, your pictures being sideways annoys the hell out of me.
Second, you can make a fender cut look OEM if you actually know what you're doing. It surely wont look like a "hack job junk cheap piece of junk".
Third, a 3 inch lift with 31's is a good fit. Thats what i would go for on your almighty bluebooked xj. If you want to know what that looks like, google it.

Then I would give it a 3inch lift. You'll clear those tires no problem.
But... Even at 3 inches if you plan to do some real wheeling and flex out hard enough plan on tearing those fender flares off.. Seen it many times.

first of all the hooks were put there by the factory second of all I had to cut the valence so that I can recover other Jeeps more quickly like yours. and it does get dirty, dirtier ithan your freaking piece of junk. and my roof rack was put up there by somebody else, I bought it like that, it does look like somebody like you would have built something like that, and then braged about it to all your friends and buddies.but I digress I didn't ask for criticism I asked a suggestion you *******. here's the thing if I wanted to criticism I would have gone to a bunch of my Jeep buddies and ask them I asked a whole bunch of people on a forum what they think about a lift and you gave me a whole bunch of crap about my roof rack so thank you
