    is it illegal to do a engine swap in cali?

    1058523 "Vehicles with a year model 30 years old or older are exempt from the smog certification requirements". This is a quote from the DMV California web site http://www.dmv.ca.gov/vr/smog.htm Because there are no requirements for smog or inspection on a 1954 vehicle, changing engines are...

    HiLift Mounting...

    1049285 First thing to point out is that in over ten years of Jeeping I have only seen a Hi-Lift Jack in use a few times. With that in mind I found a place that's out of the way, but still handy when needed. We use our Jeep for Rock Crawling and are never in a hurry anyway. I slid the handle...

    CB mounting

    1049523 Joopin, No Problem. I mounted my CB inside the center Master-Rac box (between the front seats) for ease of use, safety (lockable) and it's a good place to keep clean and dry. I built the third brake light and mounted the antenna there for several reasons. One... To keep it out...

    Spark Plugs on a 258

    1049531 chinard: Spark plugs are a topic that will get you a zillion opinions. Everyone has a favorite that works fine in his or her application. In my 258ci Jeep 235k+ Miles. I have tried them all. Cheap to expensive. One tip, two tip, three and four, and every special he said - she...

    Aux. Light switch placement?

    1049589 A little input. When I installed extra lights, that had covers, I found out the hard way that riders like to play with switches. Fortunatly these switches only work with the keys on. Unfortunatly the cool covers hide the fact that the spot lights are on until you see smoke and flames...

    Is there any way to get wax off of my fenders!?

    1049591 Megly: Maybe you can give us a little more information? CJ? YJ? TJ? Is it the fenders, or the fender flares? What type of wax are you trying to remove? Car wax, Candle wax? What? And why are you trying to remove it? Was it a bad wax job? Are you painting the fender? The reason...

    Is there any way to get wax off of my fenders!?

    1049659 I have a feeling that Megly has wax? on her fender flares. Let's make sure that's what she is trying to clean before telling her to use some heavy duty cleaners, or worse, that will cause more problems. Remember, were here to help fellow Jeepers. Megley. Is the wax on the metal...

    CB mounting

    1049743 If cost is a factor. We have several wheelers that even use hand helds. Understanding the range is limited, they work just fine. Usually (If your smart) you wheel in groups, and If needed, you can relay messages.[addsig]

    Aux. Light switch placement?

    1049748 bigT The design of these switches simple: Lift the cover and flip the switch it's on. (Good to go) If the covers down it's off. (The cover shuts off the switch) [addsig]

    CB mounting

    1049754 You've got me there. I thought all the YJ's were the same too. My 4wd indicator is a light above the steering wheel, between the spedo and tach. (Isn't life great, always learning) [addsig]

    CB mounting

    1049771 I was riding shotgun one day while two of my friends were arguing whose cb was stronger while trying to call a home base station 25+ miles away. I finally got tired of it. So to put this to rest, I picked up my cell phone and called. Funny thing was they couldn't understand either of...

    Is there any way to get wax off of my fenders!?

    1049793 Megly. Here is what I use to clean the wax, and fading from the rubber fender flares. Get a small plastic bristle brush (Like the ones guys use to clean greasy finger nails) and a bottle of "Mothers brand Back to Black" or "Turtle Wax brand Black Chrome" usually found at your local...

    Is there any way to get wax off of my fenders!?

    1049935 I think you are getting slightly off the original track. Megly needed to get the wax residue off her rubber fender flares. You all make good points about removing wax from the hard painted surfaces. A good professional wax and grease remover will prepair a surface for paint. Even some...

    wet okole seat covers

    1050979 Greencuke: I have had the Wet Okole's "custom fit" for at least 4 years without any problems. I understand concerns with wetsuit material, as Quik8slvr says, but being a surfer for about 30 years, I have not found these to have the same characteristics as wetsuits as far as drying or...
