    Does anyone have any advice on GoodYear Wrangler AT/S? The tread is a tad less aggressive the BFG AT's but still nice. Any comments?

    Stalls in cold weather

    '98 XLT, 4.0 SOHC, 4x4 Auto 52,000 miles. Recently, I'ts stalled a couple of times when I try to start it in the morning. It would try sputter and die. Today, I started it (hasn't been started in 36 hours) about 10 degrees out, and it would rev up to 2000 RPM and then down to 500 and then...

    Had speakers for too long, Time to put them IN!

    Well, next week, I want to get my speakers in. What do I need in advance? I'm thinking of either soldering or inline crimps, which would be better? I also want to heat shrink tubing arounf the connection. I'm a safety freak like that. What do you guys think?? Give me all you got.

    Removing sticker type trim lines

    I did mine at the end of the summer when it was still hot out and just pulled it right off. Use a hairdryer.

    :( Explorer Front End wobbles when I hit bumps

    Make sure your lugs are tight! Jack up the front end and try to wiggle the tire, if it wiggles then most likely, your wheel bearings are shot.

    Crimson, those are the exact rims that I want!!!! 18" American Racing Jammers. They look sweet on your explorer! I'm leaning towards the 18" AR Jammers over the 17" Cobra R's. Do you have any "rub" issues at all?

    Well, so much for washing my truck last week, cuz it got a fresh layer of mud applied to it. Haha. So, I'm gonna have to clean it again. I found the place last night and went through a small part. I went back today and found a larger spot and proceeded to have a bit of fun. Well, anyway...

    99 xlt horrible gas mileage

    Change your TStat, many people report that as one of the probelms associated with bad gas mileage. I think mine is gone because it dropped from 20-21 to 15-16.

    TACHOMETER

    I have the same problem, but I just knock on the dash a couple of times and it jumps right up. I think that it gets stuck on the background (behind the needle) and then it can't move. Try some clear double sided tape and see if that works. I haven't gotten around to it but I'm gonna try that...
