I can hear a few more vibes at idle.but can't feel them... here is a question... so somehow I managed to put the drivers side on passenger side and vise versa... is it worth switching got them?
I've had mine for awhile now, prolly 2 years an can't remember how it use to feel so...
Really? Where did you get this little nugget of information? NGK was founded on November 11, 1936. Champion was around for somewhere near 20 years by then, and probably knew how to spell copper... I'm not making any arguments about quality, but Champion has made "copper" plugs from day one. Nobody gave a rat's butt about that until platinum and iridium plugs came about, and marketing departments realized they needed something to crow about to sell the regular ones that have been around since the turn of the last century. NGK certainly did NOT invent the copper plug, they copied the technology just like most other Asian companies have. Bridgestone's founder chose the name because it "sounded like Firestone", which lent his upstart company credence. Fast forward 50 years or so, they bought the poorly run US company out...

try and put the drivers side on the passanger side... you'll wish you never tried. I was looking at the instructions a few days later and realised why it was so god damn hard.

Is this coming from the AC? I haven't driven it in two days and there was a big spot under it. Smelled like nothing... wasn't exactly clear though.

I'll be driving so I probably won't see this until it's too late, lol.

I would like to know how much effort it is to swap the transfer case on my '95 XJ, it has the NP207 and I can get my hands on a NP242 that's in great shape.
And if not much effort is needed, is it worth doing?
Thanks in advance!

Ya sure it's not a NP231?
Either way, I'd MUCH rather have a NP231 over an NP242.
