98 XJ 4.0 automatic 3.5' lift Yesterday mysteriously my passenger side windows stopped working. I do mean completely stopped working. I cant even operate them with the drivers door switches. I would normally assume it's the wiring and switches in the passenger front door but I'm not sure...

1998 XJ 4.0 206k automatic 3.5' lift This morning i started my xj and it ran rough and then revved a few times before evening out. This whole event lasted roughly 7 seconds. After work today it did the same thing. I highly doubt it's the iac sensor because it runs and idles great after that...

98 XJ 204k 3.5' lift Those metal rain guards above the doors are very strong on my 99. But on my 98 I noticed a spot where I could almost pull it off of the truck. It's not rusty at all so it must be yet another downfall to Chrysler buying AMC... poor fit and finish. Anyone ever removed or...

1998 XJ 4wd automatic 3.5 lift So after my lift install I still notice that when it's more than just me in the truck it squeaks over bumps. I'm pretty sure it's the rear sway bar or shackles. The rest is new. I'm curious on what you all have done to lubricate these. I could just shoot some...

Have had a flowmaster super 44 cat back on my xj for almost exactly 1 year. It looks so bad now that it makes my original catalytic converter from 1998 look good. I'm very annoyed with the craptastic quality of flowmaster and would like recommendations for something else. I do plan on...

98 XJ 4.0 automatic 3.5'lift Ever since I put this barn find on the road in 2016 I have bad poor heat. And this year it seems worse than ever. No matter how much I flush the heater core a little brown will come out but not much, and coolant flows through it freely. My heat is very weak and I...

98 XJ 4.0 automatic 4wd Currently have the front drive shaft in the rear while waiting on custom shaft. No vibes at any speed (tested up to 85). However downhill if I let off the gas I get a slight vibe/grind noise for about one second. My lift contains RE full leafs, monotube shocks...

98 XJ 4.0 automatic 4wd 204k The first attempt to start the jeep I let it crank for roughly 10 seconds and it didnt start. When I stopped and immediately tried again it fired right up, roughly stumbled and then died. Third attempt it ran flawlessly. I looked for any obvious vacuum leaks and...

1998 XJ AMC 4.0 I6 Auto w/4wd 3.5' lift So I have a lift on my jeep. And I know some people I can go off roading with. But if I get stuck I have no way of getting pulled out. No hitch and no bull bars. I know it's sad but hey one thing at a time right? What options do I have for towing...

1998 jeep xj 4.0 automatic part time 4wd 3.5 Rubicon express lift, iro track bar So I'm paying to work in a shop installing my lift. Its pretty much done and looking good but I only have today left to work in the shop. The angles on the axle dont look TERRIBLE and sadly I wont have time to...

I may be moving to Massachusetts next summer and I hear it's one of those states that suffers from overzealous regulations vehicles no exception. For whatever reason they have lift height regulations? I was doing some digging and any vehicle with four wheel drive is exempt from wheels protruding...

98 XJ 4.0 That bracket that the ac compressor mounts on is equipped with a badly designed mechanical fan bearing that seems to be PRESSED into the bracket! It chirps and I cant seem to get it out. Does anyone know of a place I can buy a brand new bracket with bearing installed? Linked a picture...

So while I'm working on the lift for my 98 XJ. I will need some daily transportation. This leaves my 99 XJ which recently had the brake line leading to the rear axle blow out. I need 2 things. What the size bolt and thread goes into the master cylinder in case I decide to just plug the port...

1998 Jeeo Xj 4.0 So now that my Jeep seems to be reliable I am at the finishing stages of lift kit choices. This is the lift kit I was looking at but I have a few questions... Does this lift kit include everything needed for the vehicle to function properly? Does it seriously include...

1998 jeep xj 4.0 On the way to work my check gauges light came on and my battery gauge went out. Alt is brand new grounds are clean. Then my radio turned off for about 1 second and turned back on and my gauge came back as well as the radio and all was normal. Fuses maybe? Anyone know which...

Replacing the gear box in my 98 XJ due to leaking and some play. Nothing special just surfing car part for one. I'm not using that crappy spacer again so I am looking for recommendations for a new one. I have an excellent one on my 99 but I dont remember where I got it. Looking for something...

I have been dealing with some pretty substantial problems with my 1998 jeep xj 4.0 recently. The engine pings unless I use premium fuel and is all around just very knocky. You can catch up on all this along with hearing the knock on my recent thread (over my head in problems)...
