    Wheels and Tires for sale or Trade

    I am looking to sell or trade these wheels and tires. I bought them a few years ago and have never had the chance to take them and the car to the track to use them properly. Now I am in the middle of an engine rebuild and will be going back to a street setup for wheels and tires. These have...

    Something is not right

    So I took the GN out last night for quick trip to the gas station to get it filled up. On the way there it was running fine, and then all of the sudden it started making a loud intermittent screaching sound (it changed with the throttle speed) and progressively got worse. I immediately turned...

    Alky mounting plate issues

    I have a Razor Alky kit and have had it installed for about 250 miles. I went out to the garage yesterday and noticed something was hanging under the car. Upon inspection I noticed that the alky pump mechanism is hanging as the mounting plate crumbled. See the two pictures, has anyone seen...

    Anyone near Clarkston, MI ?

    Hey guys, I am finally in my new house and it is time to do a head swap. Wondered if anyone lived near that would be willing to lend a hand. I am fine for the most part with this swap, however, with the addition of roller rockers I will need to size out new push rods. Again, not the end of...

    Installed lowering springs

    First of all, as a disclaimer, I do not have a problem with lowering springs, but I think that drop spindles would have been a better way to go. With that said, I had a set of lowering springs (Eibach) that were free so I figured WTH... Okay Disclaimer out of the way. So I installed the...

    What can I expect?

    So I got a set of ported heads and I am getting ready to install them in the next week. I decided to have them cleaned and prepped before putting them on. But I am wondering if I am getting myself too excited about the difference the car is going to be just from the heads. The heads are...

    Jeep Steering shaft

    What year steering shaft is everyone using to replace the stock POS? Also, my research has shown that there may be a difference between the Grand Cherokee and the regular Cherokee, any validity to this?

    Lowered the front end

    I installed a set of Eibach lowering springs, but the passenger side did not drop as much as the drivers side. Did I forget something with the way I inserted the spring into the lower control arm? Is there another trick that I failed to remember?

    Cars and Coffee - SE Michigan

    Guys, I may be on an island, but I really enjoy meeting other enthusiasts. I want to start a Cars and Coffee gathering in SE Michigan, unless there is one going on already that I can latch onto. I will make a few calls locally to me (Macomb) to see what we can drum up, but my thought is that...

    Great day out in the GN today!

    I did not go nuts with it (had the family with me), but I did have a lot of fun. Got a lot of thumbs up, and double takes. Kind of a cool feeling! Had an older guy (60's) ask me what year it was, and said "It looks brand new". He then asked me what it had under the hood... So I showed...

    Hood emblems

    Okay I realize the subject is NOT exciting. But I am wondering what everyone is doing with their hood. I realize my option is to replac the original emblems, remove them and roll with the plain black hood, or find an aftermarket emblem that is different. My original idea was to remove the old...

    Rattling noise

    Embarrassed as I am that I did not know what the "knocking" sound was... I am happy to have figured it out... Which it also comes to my attention that these aftermarket SLIC intercoolers are just a rattling mess. First of all am I the only one who had to modify the air dam to fit properly...

    GNX wheels and offset

    I tried searching for this answer and found a shitload of threads and comments but became frustrated when I did not find the specific answer to my question. Why would a GN owner want to buy GNX style wheels but NOT purchase with the offset or deep dish look for the staggered look of the GNX...
