So i am going to be cutting my fenders and i was wondering how i should cut the front. Ive heard that it can make the fender flimsy. So would i be ok to just cut or cut and leave a little bit of a flair or cut and fold? I just dont want to turn my fender into a flapping peice of metal at 65 mph. haha

If all you are cutting is straight from bumper back, it will be fine. I just cut mine with a sawzall after i marked and masked it. Then touched with Rustoleum. As far as further cutting, i havnt been there done that. Yet.

On the 99 xj did they put a steel door on the back hatch? Do any of the xj have a steel rear hatch? The out side part is what IM talking about thanks

I keep blowing my fuse to my power locks. I am trying to figure out why, and I the only thing I can think of Is because of one of my rear doors. It doesn't always lock/unlock when you hit the button. Since it doesn't work properly could it be drawing too much energy? Thus blowing the fuse?

High idle
I just bought a 95 sport 5spd. I have been reading like crazy for a week and cannot find anyone having exaxtly the problem im having so im going to go ahead and ask. Ok, so when i so first start for the day my idle is low (500-800) and when it warms its too high (1100-1300) and twice now it has died while in gear at about 30mph. both times it died it fired back up after about one minute. So far i have replaced the TPS, CTS, MIT, new ccv to intake manifold vacuum line, and waiting on a new MAP sensor and a charcoal canister vacuum line. Any other ideas? im going to replace the upstream o2 also. what about cps or iac valve? i just bought the jeep a couple weeks ago other than the idle it runs strong for 259k
always wanted an xj and love it alot so i need to figure this thing out. any help will be much appreciated.
