I really don't blame you. Once a month someone asks that and people flip a lid saying their oil is best and test this test that. I've heard in the past pennzoil would cause major sludge in the Midwest cause of what they put In it. All I know is I always do my own oil change and use Mobil 1. As long as you do it yourself and do it often really anything name brand is fine brother

On the driver side the bolt is on the left of the headlight it adjust left or right
On the passenger side it's on the right side to adjust left or right.
If you really don't like the output of the headlights and you don't know when they were changed last get some H4 conversions and a HD harness from LMC. It'll brighten up the road some

searched around a bit and didnt really find an answer.
the 5 speed I6 1991 cherokee gets about 17 mpg city.
the tire size is what effects mpg correct?
so if I run 33's on a 4.5 lift what mileage can I expect?
also, can I just keep my stock tires on my 4.5 lift and get decent gas mileage? even though my rig will look ridiculous.
If so, can I still run my stock tires even after a putting in 4:10 gears?
I know thats a lot in one reply. any help is appreciated.

Hi have a 1998 4.0L Jeep xj country. I just got a week ago. The problem that I am having is: When you start the Jeep it runs smooth, when you drive it, it start to back fire thru the intake and you smell a lot of fuel (Like if the timing is out). Then while you drive you turn the engine off and on very quickly it runs fine for a while and then stats to do the same thing over again. Where do I start to look for this problem? Help please?

What all do I need to change from 3:55 gears to 4:10 gears for HP D30 & C8.25? Of course I know I need the R&P themselves, but what else do I need? Carriers, tools, etc.?
