    New to the book of faces....HELP

    I finally joined FB but only to browse the marketplace. First off let me say that they over complicated this website. There are just WAY TOO MANY options, buttons, things to do on this page that I easily get lost. It took me about 35 minutes to figure out how to change my privacy because all...

    Got a question for you guys related to steering hose leak. It's for a 2000 XJ but not much different from the TJ. Everything was peachy two weeks ago and then I noticed fluid dripping out of the return line fitting at the box. A pretty good drip. I wiped it up to check and confirm the leak on...

    The lady was trying to get up my driveway today and failed half way up. I noticed the car was smoking but thought it was the tires burning cuz she was flooring it.

    If you had to go cheap on your jeep...

    What brand would you buy? I need to replace pretty much everything on the front end of my XJ. I am asking here because the XJ is pretty similar to the TJ and parts are interchangeable.

    The days are coming to and end...

    I got two buyers who want my jeep and probably got a couple weeks left with it. I sold my xj recently and that was a little hard to do because I had it for a long time and put alot of time into it. The TJ, on the other hand, has me with mixed feelings. I love the jeep but at the same time am...

    Fuel line?

    I am guessing this is the return line? I noticed that it started seeping. Where can I get a replacement tubing like that? Might be the cause of my evap leak maybe?

    Need a favor...gas cap related

    Can someone take a picture of the filler neck without the gas cap on it so I can see how high the filler neck protrudes out of the plastic cover?

    Borgeson the only option?

    I got a nasty clunking coming from the upper shaft of my steering and I need to replace that but I only see lower shafts being sold by Crown and others. Are there any other brands that sell the upper half of the steering shaft or do I have to shell out $$ for Borgeson?
