Did the injector swap on my renix. So far so good. I'll update when I drive more

So far the injector swap has been somewhat successful. The cold start is faster, idle is smoother, and throttle response is also better. However, it did not solve my problem of the "ghost sputter" where it will randomly decide to almost die after start up.

So, in the mission for the best flex with my lift, the first problem I ran into a few weeks ago was limiting rear shocks. I sort of expected it because I put stock JK shocks all around. I replaced them with superlift shocks. Got a great deal on them, and the ride quality on/off road is noticeably different. It also took away my death wobble issues...

Now for the current dilemma: my backspacing

I put small 5/16in spaces up front to keep from rubbing and the same spaces would not fit in the rear(wheel studs were too short). When flexed out like this the limiting factor was not fender rub, but the passenger side rear tire being pushed against the leaf spring.

so, obviously if I want to continue to use a 12.5 wide tire, I need new wheels...

Does anyone have a set/ have a friend with a set/ recommend a set? I need a 15in wheel that has a decent backspacing. I'm tired of all of the rub.

For the throttlebody, buy a bored one from strokedjeep. Forget the spacer, they don't do anything. As far as injectors, buy some rebuilt ones from eBay, there are a ton of reputable dealers

Nice xj! I suggest you look on Craigslist. They have tons of outlaw IIs with 3.75in back spacing. That's what I run and they are fantastic. Got a set of 4 for $75 a couple months ago

Anyone recommend a place to get my windows tinted? Car Toyz uses 3M stuff and so does JC Motorsports. One Stop uses Viper tint which has a lifetime warranty and they gave me the best price
