would also need the unlimited battery package unless you work across the street from home

 

never heard of a car charger?

 

that would probably qualify as the unlimited battery package (and no, I havent)

 

they're an option with most aftermarket stereos.
I picked up mine at walmart for 75 bucks and by buddy installed it.
great purchase.

 

thats only for iphone though. theres also adapters available for the cigarette lighter outlet. very useful

 

OR the much more affordable "plug this into your cigarette lighter and you have two USB ports" package. $4.99 at Wal-mart and pretty much every smartphone uses a USB cable for the data/charging cable. so, literally $5 and you never have to worry about batt life when in the car. Thats the way i went.

 

got it covered no worries

 

Without reading the last 2 pages. It isn't just tire size. Weight of the wheel matters, rolling resistance of the tire matters, and the right match of gear ratio and tire size matters. There's other things but since we're only talking about wheels...

 

Not to derail this thread, but one more often overlooked thing for those of us who run a CAI (Cold Air Intake) on our XJ's. During the months when temps drop below 40 degrees during any period you drive, you should find a way to remove the heat shield from the engine bay so as to allow warmer air into your engine. Yes this sounds counterproductive but hear me out on this - it has been tested and it is factual.

CAI's allow the engine to produce more horsepower by letting in colder (denser) air, this also helps with engine temps a bit as the engine isn't sucking in such hot air. All of which being great in the summer, sucks in the winter. Yes the air is colder, but there is a threshold where if the air is too cold, your engine runs extra rich to compensate, thus wasting fuel. The magic number is about 90 degrees F, which sounds high, but when you consider that normal underhood temps in winter are a bit higher, let alone in the summer which are much higher.

If this is sounding like blah blah blah, here's the shortened version:
- Winter = Warm Air needed for the intake to offset ambient temps
- Summer = Cool Air needed for the intake to offset ambient temps

 

Theyre posted on the first page but here they are again.
5 speed I6 HO 4.5 lift on 33's 4:10 gears

lemme know what you think

 

sounds like that should have you right around stock gas mileage.

 

VERY true. Also my XJ was running at about 165-170 deg. at idle and 155 or so when driving. I heard that jeep really prefer about 195, so i replaced the Tstat. Temps were right where they should be and i went from 17-18mpg to a solid 20 over a few tanks of gas.

 

There were no worries, I simply figured that since it was my post he was referring to, it would be ok to reply. i was wrong?............

 

alright I hope thats true. thats all I wanted to know
thanks for the feedback
