Does treadwright retread their tires so that each type of tire has the same tread depth as it is when bought new. Reason I ask is because I saw that bf goodrich a/t 31" tires on the website have a tread depth of 19/32" which doesn't seem as deep as a new one. And mt guard was like 17/32" .......

it has nothing to do with the sidewall (in fact unless you specify which one, they'll retread whatever sidewall they have on hand for you). The tread depth is completely their own specification

No, what they do is take a tire with worn out tread, and add their own tread design to the body of the tire. Treadwright's tread design / depth has nothing to do with what manufacturer's tire they use. You can specify what sidewall (eg: what manufacturer's tire) you want them to apply the tread to, and they try to accommodate your request.
To further clarify - they are not rebuilding the exact tire as it came from the other manufacturer, they are simply re-using the bald tire's sidewall and construction, and slapping on their own tread design (thus making them "re-tread" tires)

Hey guys quick question. How high can you raise a Jeep before the insurance goes up? Or does it go up no matter how high you raise it? I was lookin at getting a 3" (maybe 6") lift kit and was wondering.

'95 window cranks
Are 2 door window cranks (and mechanics) any different or more heavy duty than a four door??

What does that mean when you say the crank sensor isn't " indexed"? My '95 Cherokee acts like it wants to crank up but no such luck. We installed an '87 4.0 in it and switched everything over from the '95 engine.Any help would be appreciated.

This also means insurance won't pay to replace your modified/aftermarket parts, but i'm sure you knew that
