Worked on my OBA system today, almost got everything hooked up, and then found out i put the lines on the wrong part of the compressor so it is backwards.

I havent read or seen anything bad about the IRO steering, and I like the strength of heims over tierods. Getting to keep the sway bar mounts is a bonus too lol I have a few JCR pieces, and the pieces are stout and have nice welds, but the fit and finish is horrible. Thats why Im worried about JCR stuff now

I plan on getting the IRO steering myself. Crossover and OTK all in one.

Worked on my exhaust a little. Welded a 90 on after the cat and then used self tappers to attach a turn down tip to the 90 so when i go wheelin i can remove the tip so it won't get smashed like all my previous setups. Sounds better too.

Hi folks,

Anyone know how (If it's possible at all) to adjust the windscreen wiper on a 98XJ, so it doesn't quite wipe down so far? The left wiper currently does not rest horizontal, but about 10 degrees below it, "wiping" the windscreen seal etc...

Many thanks for any tips.

release the metal clip (pull it out), pull the wiper arm off, rotate 10 degrees, reinstall.
