Bluelight

My first winter with my XJ, I hit an icy patch and skipped off a jersey barrier. Had to have the front clip, front left fender and front bumper replaced. Some time after that, I had to change a front headlight, which sucked to do because the wires were too damn short. The turn signals were even worse. I later discovered that the body shop had zip tied the wire harness for the front lights to the sway bar. It's supposed to be attached to the back of the front clip below the grill.

I said something about how the new Wrangler pickup shouldn't be called the Comanche because the Comanche wasn't Wrangler-based. Someone replied with, "Well the Dart used to be very different, too. Times change."

No, buddy, that isn't a defense. You just gave more evidence that ChryCo doesn't respect their own history.

Finished replacing all the control arm bushings. Was kinda weird cause 2 of the 4 lower control arm bushings were made in Turkey instead of Mexico and looked different lol. All the rest look like typical bushings. Front end is a lot tighter now.

I took my dash cluster out to clean the connection in the back trying to fix the no bus / gauges problem. It helped but didn't fully fix so I'm going to check all of my grounds and maybe clean it again. Unless anyone knows what else could cause it. The spedo and tach will stop working and I can smack it and it will come back on, but sometimes everything stops working and it wont come on till it wants to. Everything else works normal and all of the lights still work.

I can think of another ChrCo name-recycling crime... but I shan't discuss it here.

Interesting. I hadn't hear they were going to name their wrangler-based pickup "Comanche"... would be weird since they made a "Renegade-based" pickup concept dubbed "Comanche".



Not saying that's any better, by the way.... but it looks better than a KL-based comanche would. That's for sure.

I honestly didn't think that the Comanche concept looked bad at all, the Renegade isn't bad looking either. It looks more Jeep like than the new Cherokee does.

U R so good with a cable, ground replacement/ renew. Done it 2x's on my Jeep army, and when's went to change out the braided strap from rear of cylinder head 2 firewall I went to lift it off and it dissolves in front of me. Like some " Harry Potter: movie. So remember boys + girlz , things r not all ways what they seem2 B.

Because it's not their history in the Jeep realm.

It's AMC's......

I agree, except for the fake-canvas roof. That's just dumb. They tried to make it look like an M715, which is based on the Gladiator, instead of a Comanche. But it looked alright

I think it was just speculation from the group

On topic, I'm going to Rausch

Did you use a contact cleaner?

DeOxIt is the best.

Super important.

XJWonders makes upgrade kits.

Would you or anyone else happen to know where the grounds are for the dash?
