Ive always used 3/8 for the frame mount but i here some guys are using 3/16 or 1/4 plate
Whats your opinions ?
My L&L is 3/16 plate other that the D ring tabs of course. 3/16 with at least 6 bolts on each side should hold up pretty well.

So my PO decided to break my transmission pan bolt so I have to get a new pan.

Will this pan work for my 98 with the AW4?

I was told its a plug, and u can replace it instead of the pan. Is it broken off inside? I stripped mine but its still staying in for now.

Oh and on my topic, you guys said i need to check the vaccuum line that goes to the throttle body and the map sensor? Or somewhere around there. Ill take a look.

Default 97 xj passenger windows don't work

97 xj with driver side window working
But passenger front side not working. Seems the passenger side rear
Occasionally does work from driver side.

My thought is if the locks are working then
I must be getting power to the passenger controls.

Ques. Do drive side controls link to the passenger
Side controls? There doesn't seem to be
Power coming to the tan wire on the passenger
Control which I think runs to cb#26.

How would you further diagnose to eliminate
The driver side control?
