    Stolen '94 Accord downtown

    A friend's '94ish Honda Accord was stolen from the 5th South and South Temple area downtown last night between 5:30 and 8:30. His laptop, cellphone, etc were all in the car. Recovery of any of these items would be great. It's just a normal, gold 4 door Accord. License plate number 1415N or...

    Renix TPS question

    My '88 XJ likes to idle high. Usually it idles fine on start up but as it warms up it starts to idle around 1500 rpms or so, sometimes even higher, especially if I've been higher in the RPM range. My understanding is that this is most likely the throttle position sensor, but could also be the...

    XJ charging system question

    First off, this is on an '88 XJ with the 4.0 and 226K on the odometer. My problem is that it won't hold constant voltage. I splashed through a couple very small puddles (to tell you how small, I was in 2WD) out in the desert a couple weeks ago and since then my charging system has confused the...

    Tacoma tire ?'s

    Alright...my parent's '05 Tacoma needs new tires and my dad has asked me to make some suggestions. He wants something that'll be good (if not great) in the snow and ice (it's my mom's DD), and work well off-road. Something like a gnarly AT or a street friendly MT. He's also thinking about...

    XJ starting issue

    Alright...so I go out to start my Jeep up tonight and it wouldn't start. It cranked like normal...just wouldn't fire. It ran fine this morning. Nothing's happened since that I'm aware of. I know it only needs 3 things to run, and I know I have gas so I check the ignition system and I'm not...

    XJ rear shock mount question

    So I have a problem that I need a bit of help with. My upper rear shock mounts on my XJ aren't cutting it. At all. They're so bad that my rear shocks are sitting on the garage floor at home actually. On one side, one of the bolts broke off in the nut, meaning the shock was attached to the...

    Little Moab 9/3

    There weren't many people who came out today, but some did. I was there with a bunch of friends with r/c crawlers. I did snap some pictures of a few 1:1 rigs that came out, and as promised, I will get pictures posted. Just not tonight. I just got home not that long ago, and I'm tired, so...

    Little Moab 4/30

    Here are some pics from earlier today at Little Moab. I was out there with some friends doing the r/c rock crawling thing, and while there I took some pictures of other people's rigs. I promised some people I'd have them up on the forums tonight, and here they are...

    '92 fullsize Blazer on 35's stolen in Magna

    My buddy's '92 fullsize Chevy Blazer was stolen tonight between 6:30 and 8:00 from Intermountain R/C Raceway (8400 W, 2700 S) in Magna. It's pretty hard to miss, as there aren't exactly a lot of IFS Blazers rolling around on 35's. It's gunmetal grey, with a Pro Comp lift, 35" Toyo MT's on...

    XJ's in the rain?

    Am I the only one who's XJ is all sorts of sketchy in the rain? It feels planted and secure on dry pavement, and even in the snow, but in the rain I have no feel of what the thing is trying to do at all. This is really scary, as I have to react to things instead of being able to anticipate...

    3 tickets. :( What can we do?

    Alrighty, I've used the search feature to answer one of my questions, but I still have more. My bro got 3 tickets yesterday on his way out of the state from an asshole cop. He was headed to Oregon for college in his YJ on 33's. People were flying by him left and right, and there were other...

    Tips on installing a lift?

    Alrighty, I'm hoping to get my XJ in the air soon. I haven't quite decided on the lift yet, but probably a Rusty's 4.5" w/ new rear leaves. Any tips or suggestions? Any idea how long this should take? I should have a considerable amount of help (hopefully me and 3 or 4 other people, all who...

    New XJ Owner

    (Insert Dr. Nick voice here) Hello Everybody! So, I'm Ryan, I'm in Sandy, I pilot, yes, pilot an '88 XJ. Right now the only mods I've got are audio related. I'm working on getting either a Revolvers/ACOS lift and 30's or a one of 4 different lifts to clear 31's. I can't decide which to do...
