1. above a few posts i posted a picture of the engine and a broken part...anyone know what it is?
2. I am thinking about getting a Chiltons repair manual or something like it...anyone have a suggestion on a repair manual. My jeep runs, but i want to change a few things and have no experience.

Def get the repair manual for your year rig it comes in handy. As for the pic I don't have that specific setup and I don't wanna say the ccv cause the plug towards the front looks like it

Did the fluid purge when the pedal plunged? From your description, it sounds like something's wide open (line, bleeder, caliper piston or wheel cylinder). I know that you know your way around a Jeep. Need I ask if you inspected each corner and the lines that lead to them? Where's the wet spot? How about doing a pump and bleed, after bench-bleeding the master (as-if you were just putting in a new one yourself)?

Not really.. as long as it suits your needs. I always prefer the stock-look, to anything aftermarket. But, you get a lot more out of your speakers with the better crossovers and amplification from aftermarket heads. If you ever plan to add subs or anything, its pretty much a must.

I have a 2000 xj 4.0l and I have to replace the power steering pump. Is there anything that I need to know before replacing it? I just need any pointers I can get. Thanks

I am 13894325% sure I need new leaf springs as I can barely seat two people in the rear seat and hit a bump with out rubbing.

But my question is, would you guys prefer to buy new leafs, or just throw more money at it and get a small lift (1.5-2") Which I was thinking about doing already. But the springs right now are for sure on my to do list.

do a three inch lift you will like it better

Yea, I am still thinking about it, but isn't that the height at which I will have to start considering SYE, Transfer case drop, and new shocks?

But I'm checking out some of these prices, and these are ridiculous for such a small lift. This is also my first lift experience, so I am still not to sure what to be looking at. Think I should throw this question on the Lift and tire thread?

xj guy
