Will try to organize something. I have 1 other friend who drives an XJ who might want to come with.

 

i may be out of an xj for a M&G but id definatly still want to meet you guys even if i dont have an xj if it is deemed totaled by the insurance company

 

Sorry to hear about what happened, but glad you're ok.

As far as a M&G that sounds good to me. Sunday morning-ish or early afternoon usually works best for me. If you guys get something set, let me know.

 

I will come pick you up so you can still go!!!

 

The damage doesn't look too bad about how fast he he hit you at? I would think as long as nothing is twisted you should be fine.

 

sunday mornings work for me as far as a meet and greeett!! i work nights so dont wanna be out too late either!

damage dont look too bad id try and buy it back and fix it plus get some insrance money out of it!


anyone do anything exciting since we got some rain?? i went muddin and then ending up burrying my xj in water flooded my interior carpets soaked and i think i might have got a little water sucked into the intake its acting up a little

 

Does anyone know of any good shops in town? Eventually I'd like to get to the point where I can service everything myself, but still young and still new to my jeep. Wanna get it serviced and talk to someone stuff that concerns me.

Either that or find a friend on the forum who wants to make a few bucks haha. I have been to a few shops and they don't know jack about jeeps.

One was Gunu take a computer diagnostics test for my XJ...but there is nowhere for the hook up! I let them look for the plug and just watched

 

Damn, that looks pretty deep. I drove through a couple mud puddles, that's really about it.

What all does it need? I've got some knowledge, some tools, and a garage, I usually just do everything myself.

 

Since I bought it a month ago general maintenance, look for things wrong, took it to wheel align it cuz the shocks were hitting hard and are adjustable and one of the brackets on the right wheel was dangerously loose. There is a smell that comes about when I get on the high way and get a decent speed. It's kinda a sweet smell someone on here told me it might be tranny fluid.

I do need a shop to oil up and boost my AC compressor. I can mount it myself but the coolant and the air needs to be pumped from it.

 

is that right off alameda at the 4 way stop??? that gets pretty nasty down there...hope the jeep is ok!

 

he hit me about 10 mph but the fram go slightly bent in the back and now the rear of my xj sits about an inch farther to the passenger side then before and i dont think im going to buy it back because its too much for for the little time i have to myself theres a couple cherokees going off at copart and i may go vehicle-less for a bit if a 2 door shows up there if i dont wait then there is a 98 going off next week

 

The only think I take my jeep to is for tires and alignmnet and I don't even like doin that. AC stuff is easy as long as you know how to read your gauges. I did my paint and body work on my girlfriends and hers was wrecked on the pass front pretty bad.

 

As long as you know the basic understanding about vehicles its pretty. It the electrical and electronics are the hardest and trans valve bodys. The hardest thing for me was when my front axle seal was leaking and it the vac dicso so I had to make a tool to get it to work, its pretty much the same way the dealer would do it to

 

That's basically how I am. If I can fix it, I will. Even if I don't know how, I'll research it online and figure it out.

 

Wanna get to the point where I can do it all myself. I go online and learn to do stuff. Just not the expertise to do it right cuz I'm afraid I'm going to mess it up
