The Cherokee pulls hard left when the pressure drops more than 5 psi in the nailed up front left. Pressure up to match the right-no pull. Goodyear Wranglers. Did you use the Auto Fill Alert to check your pressures? Was the system calibrated correctly from the factory? New TPS sensors on new...

There are times when Ludicrous Speed is necessary.

How many of us happily wear t-shirts emblazoned with (fill in the blank)? No, I do not care for dealer ads. I suspect part of the reason is for the dealer to spot a sale from another dealer. Some of our motorcycle shops use it to deny or slow down warranty work because the vehicle was not "their...

Late last century I wrenched for a euro import shop. Mercedes then had a feature that locked the transmission in second gear for standing starts. Always, regardless of weather. It would, however, shift back to first with heavy pedal input. Light application held second. I still use second for...

Apples to Pears-When I started riding motorcycles, Nixon was a racer and all clutches were cable and lever. The Oriental units of the time were notoriously weak-just enough pressure and CoF for a stock engine. Stock was never enough performance soooo... Barnett friction plates and springs...

And do not forget to lube the muffler bearings.

One would hope the pics are the prototype, not final, iteration. The lid padding fitment is cheesy. It will sell, nonetheless. The Mopar item looks like it was made for the vehicle.

Some grades of stainless are mildly magnetic. The exhaust headers and crossover on the V11 are of that type. The welding shop explained this when I had a crack at the head flange.

Once I was over the "Shiney New Thing" auto emotional response, I see several good pry points close to the lock blades along with some lid gaps. A good pry bar and a few moments time. Locks keep honest people honest.

I like the Exoskeleton type for hard core off road beater and it probably works well for rhino chasing on the Serengeti but it looks so lame on the mall crawler. These days, every one needs a Challenge Coin, eh?

I spent many years wrenching on other folks' motorcycles. What passes for custom and art for one ethnic group is incomprehensible to another. That white thing is the Jeep equivalent.

Eaton posi diffs fr and rr along with real hood vents that exclude rain.

Why would I need that when all I need to do is move a lever or two to access 4H and be done with it? Seems like one more thing to wear out/break at the worst time. I would rather have the ability to use positrack diffs fr and rr.

Rattle can VHB epoxy paint and let the sun heat them for an hour or so after painting. I sprayed the 95 Sport 1100 wheels 12 years ago and they still look great.

I may be wrong but the Sport S does not have a locker in the front. It is an open type. The wheels should easily compensate for the speed/grip disparity. Seems it is down to the basic design of a u joint vs. CV. The Cherokee has been doing this since 92. (Still chugging along at 29 years old)

Being from the Southeast, I had no experience with Nebraska weather. So, it was a warm day and I decided to wash the Charger. The next morning I was using my lighter to heat the key as I pressed it into the door lock. Almost missed the "not 15 minutes early, you're late" roll call at Offutt.

Fun costs money? Who came up with that formula?

My 20 year old F150 has adaptive cruise and it works flawlessly. It is called situational awareness or paying attention for us Luddites.

Good on Ya. It is the little things that matter.

If the Seeing Eye is on the floor, who is doing the driving?
