Introduce yourself here!

Hello, my name is Jeff. Proud owner of an 01 Ironman located here in Saratoga Springs NY. Looking forward to getting to know you guys and getting my feet wet on the trails.

I bought my ironman is KY, drove it 700miles to GA to then trailer it all the way up to NY, its not broken, just moving to the north.

That's a hell of a trip, and roundabout vs. going direct to NY. Mine came from San Diego and it's now in GA, so I know a thing or two about road tripping.

Welcome Jeff. I bought my second VX in CA and drove it home to TX. Be sure to join the Facebook group as well as that group is more active than this one. The search function is your best friend here and there's probably not many questions that you can't find an answer to.

Oh yes, has been very helpful thus far. Big dreams for my vx haha

Hi I am mikey likes vx. I am trying to post an issue with my vx.i recently put a transmission and transfercase out of a 1998 trooper into my 1999 vx. I cant get power to the front axels. Either in tod or 4lo. No tod trouble codes, but one abs 35 code. Does anyone know for sure if I need to put the transfercase that came out of the vx back in? Or do I need to put the ecu out of the trooper in the vx? Or is my issue a mechanical one with the lock fork or sleeve in the left front half shaft?

I recently put a transmission and transfercase from a 1998 trooper in my 1999 vx. And I cant get power to the front wheels. Do I need to either put the ecu from the trooper in vx. Or do I need to put the original transfercase back in the vx. Or is it a mechanical issue with the lock form in the half shaft? Any help would be appreciated. There is no tod trouble codes and one abs code with a solid dash light #35. Thank you

I was impressed with the styling when the VX was first introduced. 20 years later I showed a friend a picture of the Iron Man; she said it was the ugliest thing she'd seen in a long time, "it looks like a Walmart sneaker". I knew I had to have one---or two; I do, white and black!

I do not know much about the TOD system or why you are having these issues but you might try posting this question in the trouble shooting section of the forum. http://www.vehicross.info/forumdispl...roubleshooting

Hi folks, I just picked up a 2000 Ironman earlier this year before the insanity. I've always wanted a VX and figured now was the time with them going for silly money on BAT (15k for a, erm, not very original example today, silly). Anywho I'm going to spend the next few months getting it dialed in and addressing the stuff the previous owner neglected to. Already fixed the Tape Deck/Radio so I can use a bluetooth tape adapter, replaced all the lights with LEDs (save the plate), replaced all the speakers as they were all shredded, All in all it's a great truck. Previously I had a Samurai and I can't believe how the VX drives compared to it, or even a brand new jeep, what a special quirky truck!
