    98 Wrangler sputters on highway

    1046365 Clogged cats happen very often in 97-98 wranglers. My cousins did it with about 50,000 miles on it. With low emitions it sounds like that; however, ive had a different throttle problem on my first tj that has also haunted my second one. Throttle position sensor. On my 97 the...

    suspension mods. :-?

    1049310 About the pitman arm drop. You really should put it on. My cousin had a 2 1/2' inch lift with lots of bump steer. AKA death wobble where your steering is flexing up and down. This causes your tires to go in and out at opposing directions, bad thing. He put on the rubicon express...

    A new Jeep Owner-A few Questions

    1049410 ticking is okay, clanking i bad, crunching is worse. A straight six has a what appears to be a ticking sound between stokes. listen closely to a four. Infinity speakers are overrated, they sound like the rest with twice the price. Hate to tell you this but either you or the person...

    Gearing in axle

    1049418 To use four wheel drive YES. Change both ends. If not a lot of stuff will get broken. If you only change the back take out the front driveshaft to ensure you do not engage the front wheels.[addsig]

    Power aid or tornado air for my 4 banger?

    1049419 I actually got a k&n air filter and a tornado off of my friend for free when he got rid of his tj. K&n adds a little power. Tornado's are junk, for the $65 he spent its not worth it. Didnt notice any gas mileage or power change.[addsig]

    plastic windows+cold+blunt force=bad

    1049420 The packing tape will work fine. My cousin did the exact same thing two years ago. He's still running the same packing tape. He'll probably be running it for another couple years too.[addsig]

    Power aid or tornado air for my 4 banger?

    1049432 Ive built 2 intakes for people with PVC. Neither poser left it white. The time is well worth it since it will only take a 1/2 hour to set up, and it makes for much more air flow than stock or just a k&n. Id keep some sort of air box though, being a jeep it might see a lot of mud...
