I'm more for a prerunner bar personally but I guess it's just personal opinion. Choose which ever feels right and what type of rig you're building

I'm actually going through this right now. I've decided on the extreme winch bumper from dirtbound offroad. Mainly because the winch sits lower and allows more air to pass through the radiator.

Hmm. All I can picture is a valve cover being used as a hookah. Bowl where the filler cap goes and hoses off of the CCV elbows lol. Probably because last night when I took mine to the car wash there was steam pouring out of all the holes.

I just had my CAT replaced by the dealership this past tuesday and was planning on getting new 02 sensors as I'll be upgrading exhaust too. My question is, How can I tell if they put in a new downstream 02 sensor? It looks fairly new but I just want to know. Should they have tha info on file? Or if I pull it out will it still look fairly clean? I have put about 30-50 miles on it already.

Yeah they should have it on file, you should see it on your receipt too.

If you pull it out it a new one will look clean. Hell, if you CAN pull it out it's almost guaranteed to be new. Check for antisieze on the threads.

I have a 2000 Jeep cherokee and I have a problem. The turn signal works but doesn't automatically click off when done turning I have to manually turn turn signal off. Can it be fixed?

Sounds like you need a turn signal switch. Replace the switch and you should be good to go.

Does your cruse control work? If not than you probably need a clock spring

The cruise control light comes on, on the dash but it doesn't work. Don't hold its speed. What exactly is a clock spring and are they difficult to replace?
