I'm at Ray and 101. Running in circles with repairs on my jeep. haven't been able to do any upgrades. Still bone stock.

Where to begin:

  • Ball joints are bad - I can't get to them because the rotor is rusted to the hub
  • Just found out the computer isn't turning on the electric fan - fan is currently hardwired to battery with toggle switch inside
  • Suspension is bad - leafs are flat in rear
  • possible transmission issue - vibration during acceleration from dead stop to 30mph
This is all on a 101k motor and frame.

seriously, take it to knuckle busters, http://knuckle-busters.com/, have them quote you on how much it would be to get it all taken care of. reasonable rates.

Hello all, I'll be moving to the Phoenix area in August and I'm trying to decide if I should bring my xj or sell it. Is the xj enthusiast scene big there? Are there many places to wheel within less than an hour drive? Are there many junkyards with a solid supply of Renix parts?

Bring it, yes, yes, and yes.

Check out funtrecks.com for an awesome trail guide book for az. And virtualjeepclub.com for a large local club.

Renix parts shouldn't be an issue. I'd bring it.
