Blower Control Fix One morning I get a call from the misses saying that she can not get her heater to work. Of course I just figured it was on of those things and more than likely either a fuse blew or who knows. Later that day she calls me and tells me that she can get the fan to work only if she has it in high. Ah I've seen this one a few times on the net and I know exactly what it is. Question is where is it on an 1998 XJ? Did some searching around on the internet and nothing could tell me so I just took it at faith and ordered the part anyways from a friendly forum member that just happens to work the desk in parts.
well, here's a few pics that came from my camera this week.
we were trying to be part of the links 4 jeeps naches run and it sort of worked out. we met always wrenching on the trail and everyone else at whistlin' jack's. it was nice to see everyone again. regretably it was for a very short time.
pix: the day we got to little naches campground started out pretty nice. then the thunder, rain and lightning took effect. two of us left our windows at home and that is why you see the oregon fast-back on my jeep.

There seems to be a bit of confusion with regards to emails and private messages. I was sent a PM and asked so I figured it was just as easy to address everybody as well as the sender, which I have already, but just in case there is any confusion.
Question: I noticed lately when I reply to a topic I now get emails letting me know somebody replied, but I tried to turn that off and now I don't receive emails when I'm sent a Private Message.
Answer:
Private messages By default all members should be getting an email when they are sent a Private Message. In your settings Profile > Personal Messaging > Notify by email every time you receive a personal message: you have 3 options. Never - Meaning from Nobody Always - Means everybody who sends you one you will recieve it. From Buddies Only - You will have to select people as your buddies and then only from them
I have a question for the people that have a york air compressor. I want to do a air suspension setup where I use a york air compressor but I don't want to have it running off my car engine I want it to run off a 12 volt dc motor but I need to know in looking for a motor do I need horse power or do I just need rpm's? So if you know please let me know
This started as an Idea to build my own off road trailer but after looking into costs of all the material to build the trailer I decided it would be easier and cheaper to modify a small pickup bed trailer. So after some shopping I found this small 58'' by 72'' bed trailer for only $50.00
So the plan is spring over conversion for height, build tail gate, build an expanded metal top, off road style coupler, different lights, leveling jacks, paint, and some special storage.
Ah, finally getting around to this project after 2 years of thinking about it.
Jeep Cargo Deck / Camp Table
For a while now I've been wanting some way to organize and secure cargo and gear in the back of my Jeep for camping and so forth. Sure, there are footman loops riveted to the bed of the Jeep but it seems like they are never in the right spot or that the loop is too shallow to fit a ratchet strap hook under it. I didn't want a big box back there because I wanted flexibility with arranging the load. Plus I wanted to make sure there is room for my dog, Zoe, and her dog bed.
Instead, I started thinking about a cargo deck. This would sit up higher than the seat brackets and fill in the recess where the seats go. A grid of anchor points would give me the flexibility I needed.
And to make the deck a bit more functional. . . why not have it convert to a camp table?
Well my "no body lift" 0.25" UCF transfer case skid came in this past Monday. First off, I was really impressed with the stoutness and quality of the skid. Over the next weekdays, I spent my evenings after work, priming and painting the skid for a weekend install.
When the weekend finally came, I was so exited to remove my OEM skid that I forgot and didn't take note of the orientation of the transmission support bracket that is mounted on the skid. As such, I installed the bracket with the higher side towards the front and the lower side to the rear (the bracket is sloping downwards to the rear).
When I finally finished installing the skid, I took the Jeep on a test drive and felt vibes between 15-30 mph, despite my 1" MML. To remedy, I began installing one washer at a time, until the vibes disappeared. Six washers ultimately did the trick, lowering the skid by 0.75". At the end of the day, I am still very happy with the product and the protection it will give me....
