    Buying a vehicle on the East coast...for the first time

    The title pretty much covers it. I just moved to Washington DC (kind of a forced work move) about a month ago now and am in the market for a for a vehicle. Now, I've lived on the west coast my entire life so this whole area is new to me. I've heard that they put salt on the roads in winter...

    Good small/midsize truck

    Well, after some serious thought and deliberation, I've decided it's time to get a more economically friendly vehicle. :( I used to own a '94 Chevrolet S-10, and am looking to get something in the same flavor, but newer. I figured I'd appeal to the vast expanse of knowledge on here as to a...

    Code 76???

    Just messing around with my XJ ('92, 4.0 I6, auto, AW4) tonight while at work and decided to pull the codes. I came up with codes 12 (Battery disconnect) and 76 (Fuel Pump Ballast Bypass Relay Circuit). I looked on 5-90's site and found the meanings for both of these, but the 76 intrigues me...

    Online source for larger drain plugs??

    I recently ripped all the carpet out of my Jeep to solve a leak problem. Well, it being nut-tucking cold outside and just my general lack of motivation, I decided to just let the water pool up in the passenger floorwell then drain it as needed. Here's my question, do ya'll know of any online...

    Electrical issues when *attempting* to start...

    Ok, here's the deal. I go out tonight to start my Jeep ('92, 4.0I6 auto, AW4, etc.), put the key in the ignition and turn. Nothing. You may be thinking, "Hmmmm, sounds like the NSS". I will personally fly to your house and shoot you if you say that. Sorry, really pissed right now. Anyhow...

    Finally got my name in red. Yes it took some time, but I figured I could finally spare a tank of gas. :D

    Police video (14 mins, 56k beware)

    Before this gets thrown in the wrong direction off the bat, I just to clarify why I'm posting this. I saw this video for the first time a few days ago and it just reinforced my decision to go into Law Enforcement. Those of you that hate police, I don't care. I'm not asking for your opinion on...

    I'm at my wits end here, need some help!

    For about the last week or so now, my Jeep has been making a very strange ticking sound whenever I let off the gas pedal. I can't quite narrow down where it's coming from because it only happens at speeds 20mph or higher, and only when I let off the gas. It doesn't happen under load (IE...

    TSF pics

    Well, I had a blast this last weekend. Like Mojojojo said, it was nice to finally put some faces with names. Ya'll are definately a fun group to camp with! Wish I could've stayed for the Sunday wheeling, but there's always NWFest. :D Here's some of the highlights from the pictures I took...

    What is this sound?????

    I recently (last week) rotated the tires on my '92 XJ. The day after doing so, I began hearing a loud clicking sound while coasting or lightly braking. After a week, it seems to have gotten louder and more frequent. It only happens when I let off the gas, or if I tap the brakes. I had my dad...

    LCA install woes

    Ok, I realize this topic has been covered before, but I've gotten myself into a bad spot. It's getting dark soon and I have to have my Jeep done by tomorrow. I began installing my Rustys lower control arms today at 1pm, as I sit here, the passenger side one is in and done, while the driver...

    Justice does still exist...

    After having read the thread on tailgaters and the frustration they cause, I thought I'd post up my little dose of happiness I just received. I was digging around in the fridge a few minuntes ago for a snack before I hit the sack and hear a car pull into the driveway next door. This isn't...

    Another no start problem (Not NSS)

    So I tried searching for about an hour and came up with essentially nothing that helped me (searching for "no start" comes up with almost every post!). The problem I have is this: up until yesterday, my XJ ran just fine. This morning I went out to start it and it just cranks and cranks. I can...

    Much needed Oregon snow run...

    So with all this talk about snow lately, and after having seen the pics from the recent WA snow run, I want in on the action! :) Sooooo...for the Southern Washington/Northwest Oregon folks, who wants to plan/participate in a run? Just off the top of my head I'm thinking about Goat Mt. near...

    Older red XJ w/ WA plates...

    Just seeing if I could track down the owner of a red XJ I saw Friday night on SE 99th and SE Foster Rd. It was about midnight-1am and I was sitting in a cop car waiting for a tow truck to come get a car that had crashed into the barrier there. The XJ was red, had Washington plates, bout 3"-5"...

    '92 XJ no start. Sorry for beating the horse...

    I tried searching on this issue for a good hour or so with no real luck finding any specifics. About a week ago I went wheelin and managed to drown my alternator. I know this because the battery would not charge, and when I had someone try and rebuild it, he said the thing was toast. I got a...

    Alternator woes

    So I decided to drown my alternator this week and it showed it's thanks by stranding me miles from town. :( I managed to get back home by charging the battery with a friends vehicle, then driving till it died, then starting over again. Long story short, I need a new alternator. I'm in the...

    Need help locating parking light wire

    I'm installing my Hella 500's on my jeep, but the kit didn't come with a long enough wire to splice into the headlights up front. I'm trying to locate the parking light wire under the dash but there are wires everywhere! When I'm under there(the dash) I can see the huge loom of wiring that...

    Need advice from Californians...

I was hoping I could get some advice from some of you that live down there to someone that hasnt been down there before. Anything like what to expect for gas prices, traffic, etc. would be greatly appreciated...
