The Craigslist deal master has done it again.

Found 4 90% 33x12.5 Pro Comp Mud Terrains on black Mickey Thompson soft 8 style wheels

I'm giving him the wheels/tires off the red 2 door and $500

Both my XJ's are getting a tire upgrade tomorrow.

Blue is going from 32x11.50 to 33x12.50
Red is going from 31x10.50 AT's to 32x11.50 MT's

and I'm only spending $500

I've got two good rear shocks if you need them. They're just sitting in my garage. They came off my 2000. Not what year you have or if they're compatible with older models.

when I put my hitch on, I removed the bumper. It's only 4 bolts. Then you have a nice open square channel to work with.

I needed to order new ones anyways, I had shocks for a 3 inch lift but I have 4.5 inches of lift. This is just making me do it sooner rather than later, but thank you for the offer!

That's my reasoning between the overheating and the full gauge swap. Just bought the sensors, so I'm looking for a write-up now.

Yep. I'm home now, and the fan clutch is looking good now. It had play before, but everything's tightened up.
I have those BW flares for you if you're free. Don't know what your family plans are today.

I'm at my folks right now. What's your work schedule this week? I might be able to swing by today but it's probably a slim chance.

Oil and temp

Its pretty straight forward. You dont need to run new wires. Just replace the sensors. If you are overheating at highway speeds, look at your water pump or radiator.

Just found a good write-up on jeepin.com I just wanted to make sure i wasn't missing any steps. Mike said to keep an eye on the water pump, too. And Advance doesn't carry replacement coolant reservoirs. Any suggestions what to get/where to get one?
