ExActly. I've gotten use to my rig to the point I feel it when she disengages. Quick story I was snow crawling during the winter. Shifted so much that at one point when I was in 2wd the car was in 4wd aNd I could feel it drive wrong. Reshifted again and it fixed itself.

 

That is NUTZ ! It is amazing how "in tune" we can get with our vehicles.

 

It get scary to the point that of it droves differently one day we freak lol

 

..where did you get said harness? I'm planning to switch-out my OEM's next weekend.
I figured i'd ask, rather than just get a crappy "drill-a-hole & stick-it-in" xenon kit from somewhere.

 

..unless anyone can recommend anything else they've done to brighten-up my visibility..? Or, if anyone wants to recommend anything else I can do to my DD. I'll be getting a nice bonus($) in July, and i'm just itching to start making something out of my mostly stock XJ!

 

Did u replace the track bar bolt without the stock bolt nexus that'll tab on it make it able to move without loosining

 

How can I remove the dome light assembly to check the wires? My front dome lights refuse to switch on even though the fuses and the bulbs are fine. And the back seat ones only turn on when the door opens. Also, my passenger side door doesn't lock. Is it possible to replace the lock instead of buying a new door entirely? Is there an online manual I can look at so that I can do this myself w/o spending a fortune at a shop?

 

Its deff worth it to spend the $15 or so for the Chilton or Haynes Manual for your rig.. it'll pretty much show you the proper way to check/do anything. ..then you can decide if the task is too great, or easy enough to handle. They've helped me through every vehicle I've owned.

What axle comes stock on 98 xj sports? I believe mine is an (8.25") ? I compared it to chart of different ones. Well anyways how should it hold up to 31's? And what is the gear ratio in it? Thanks.

 

They will hold to about 35" tire with no problem, 31s won't be that big of a deal. I'm pushing 33s with stock gears On a Chrysler 8.25.

 

Thanks. So mpg wont be a very noticeable decrease from 235's?

33s will break an 8.25
