I need to do that to. Maybe on the long weekend. Fix my washer tube , not squirt cars.

Im new to the JEEP world and keep hearing Renix. What the hell is a Renix, and do I have 1? I have a 96 XJ Country ,4.0,4x4,d30 and d35 front and rear with limited slip front and rear. Would it have a Renix?

Hey , Id like to see a tech write up about your snorkel. I burried myXJ about 2 months ago and sucked water and mud through the intake and blew my motor. Just replaced the motor and dont want to do it again. Thanks if you can do that.

You do have to admit that it is fun and it does keeps jerks off your bumper. Although it is a problem when climbing, all the wiper fluid keeps leaking out.
