Whoops, not 33x12.5r15's lol those are 205 each, BUT they have an 80 buck rebate on a set of 4, so that works out to 185 a tire!

Looking at a potential transmission cooler for my XJ. Want something short yet long to fit behind the front bumper (which I'd cut vents into of course).

Found this. Off of a 99 Grand Marquis. Can anyone explain this to me? Why does it appear to be two separate coolers? Is it thermostatically bypassed or something?

Short and sweet. I bought a sound-bar from a junkyard. I have 4 speakers, 2 door, 2 hatch. I want to wire in these sound-bar speakers. I don't want to run off my rear hatch speakers. Doing research on here i found out i need a small amp. What kind of amp do i need, and how do i know if it will support 6 speakers. I don't have a sub.

tl;dr What amp will run 6 speakers?

X2 that's a sweet find. You could do transmission fluid on one side and then power steering in the other.

Confirmed it via a reference on lunghd's website. It is apparently a combo P/S and Trans cooler. Will be getting! Can't beat $30 shipped!

Edit: So a snag. Apparently this cooler features a thermostatic bypass (the little block thing). Wondering how in the hell this works with 4 outlets, etc.

Default Mystery Part

Ok well I am a fairly new Jeep owner (92 XJ)and I have come across a part that I don't recognize. It has a slack cable running to the throttle body and a vacuum line running out of it as well. I have a feeling the cable running to the throttle body should hold tension, but until I know the purpose of the part I can't fix it.

Cruise control servo. And it works just as you described. Vacuum holds the tension on the throttle once the electrical signal is received.

So if i trim and do, let's say, 3 inch lift...35's would fit? Would any other mods be necessary?

Re-geering for power regain would help
