    Sedona jeep trip

    Planning our next Jeep run! Thinking Sedona this time. The trails there are generally short but we can do many. We have 2 grand Cherokees that will be going so far.

    98 GC 5.2l engine trouble

    I have a 98 grand with 5.2l is dying a slow death. It started running rough a week ago. It was bad enough to make my entire Jeep shimmy while stopped at a light and the check engine light came on.

    transmission issues/questions

    I have a 98 grand Cherokee 5.2l. It has a 44re trans with 260k miles. It has never given me issues until now. When it is shifting from first to second it is very slow in between. When shifting from second to third it seems like it slips out of gear and revs a little before it goes into third...

    what size rims to get

    I am bumping up my tire size to 33" but my current factory rims wont cut it anymore. I'm looking at 33 x 10.5 x 15 or 33 x 12.5 x 15. I just don't know rim ratios to tire width. I've been told 15 x 8 rims will hold the 10.5 but what about 12.5?
