Howler GT....I run a Fram oil filter with Synthetic...whats the problem with that....
|
Fram has the worst filtration out there hence being so CHEAP. Dump it and run a better filter.

go wheeling alone with no recovery gear. go wheeling with a spare tire that is not sized to your runners. put off routine maintence. install a lift kit before you install armor (provided you are going to use the lift for it's intended purpose). attempt an unfamiliar water crossing without checking it out. install lift, armour, big tires and run junk brakes. |

Yeah, that's a pool they're pulling it out of. the worst thing that ive seen was a lowered xj with a three tone paint job... i felt even sorrier for it |
Oh my god.... that owner should have his knees shot out.
Or at least the right one so he can't drive :D I'll adopt that jeep, give it a good home where it'll be loved. I saw a jeep today with plywood where their grill should be. Apparently they dinged the front and broke the grill, so they NAILED plywood over the spot for the grill...that's gotta be good for their engine temperature.. |

What's wrong about a lift kit without armor? I have a tranny skid plate, but that's it.
I suppose there are two schools of thought here... One being folks that buy armour yet never intend on 'using' it... The other being folks that buy armour and use it as tools to enhance the capabilities of the rig. |

1. Install a K&N Filter on a cold-air intake that is not shielded from engine-bay heat.
2. Change oil/filter and install a FRAM filter with full synthetic oil on a 4.0L w/over 150,000miles. 3. Place a : "If you can read this...I need more mud" "If you can read this...roll me over" stickers on the rear window of a "Mall-rig" that will never see a trail or ANY mud. 4. Install the "Roll Me Over" sticker from #3 right-side up. Shows the people behind you in mall traffic that you are an idiot. 5. Spend an outrageous amount of money to outfit your XJ with items that you will NEVER ever use just because they "look cool" |
Either they're establishing a baseline depth for needing a snorkel, or somebody had tee many martoonies. (I vote for #2). |

lots of people use fram filters, I use one, whats so bad about them?

I agree. I don't use anything but Fram. Every filter on all 4 of my cars is a Fram. Every car I had had Fram stuff on it. Hell, every race engine I've been around had a Fram on it. Well, except the Purolator and Wix sponsored guys. If someone is willing to trust a $30,000+ engine to Fram, I'll trust it on anything.

Never drive without your front swaybar connected down the road.
As for a Filter I use a Tough Guard Fram Filter with 10w-40 Pennzoil oil. |
