    Thought I'd drop this here for folks and to help out my buddy. He's selling a 79 cj on ebay. Btw, this was not one of those grand canyon pink jeep tour things, but it IS a pink cj. :) Jeep : CJ : eBay Motors (item 300391305061 end time Feb-03-10 17:53:29 PST)

    I noticed after wheeling the other day that I had fluid dripping on my front diff. Further inspection revealed that it was power steering fluid. I looked all over for a leak but the only place that looked like it was really covered in it was the cap. Also, the fluid is spraying back into my...

    Need to smog in california

    Man, after years of lusting after wranglers I finally have one... I searched and searched and searched, then I bought the first one I looked at! :) I'm the new owner of a 1989 wrangler laredo, 4.2l 5speed. :) The guy was asking 4200$ for it, I told him it wasn't quite in my price range so...
