Years ago I had a CJ5, so I'm not a novice to Jeeps by any means, and I bought my oldest daughter an 01 Sport about 3yrs ago. That said I'm not an expert either. I am looking for a TJ just for kind of a 2nd/spare car for myself so I don't have to put the miles on my Yukon XL, which I'm also...

Asked a few days ago about an 03 Rubicon. I'm not sure I'm comfortable with it and it needs AC work along with other recent work. So, now I'm looking at an 01 Sport, but it didn't come with AC....he thinks maybe it came from Alaska originally. My question here is how difficult is it to add...

01 TJ The horn stopped working. Fuse and relay checked against other in panel. So those are good. I have been looking at other threads and trying to work through those suggestions. My fear is a broken/ damaged clock spring. Reason being I just replaced the steering gear box, 5 days...

I am considering buying a 2nd TJ to track my youngest to drive and just because. Have a few questions on one I'm looking at. First the AC doesn't work.... is that thing to be major on these? Second, the oil pressure gauge isn't working, which worries me even though they said they...

while under our 01 Jeep I noticed the brake line going to the rear brakes looks kind of gross. Almost a rusty appearance. I have zero clue what those were made of, but guessing it is steel and thus likely is rust. I'll try to get a pic uploaded, I posted one elsewhere asking about the...

So have had issues with the power steering gearbox leaking. I was going to send it in to get rebuilt by group in Texas, but they recommended just grabbing one from O'Reilly, since I didn't really need it 'beefed' up. At first I tried a salvage unit, because I was planning on sending my...

01 TJ and I have it up on the lift to do some work. While up I'd like to spray something on areas that paint is flaking or small surface rust areas. Mainly frame and suspension stuff. I have rust killer spray. Should o do that then rustoleum or maybe rubberized undercarriage spray...

01 TJ Sport 31x12.5 BFGs, stock height. Front driver shock is broken so needing to replace. Any recommendations? I notice a few different model numbers for same brands that all supposedly fit. Rancho, Monroe, rough country, etc. Doesn't see much trail use yet, but when I replace...

Needing tires on our 01 Sport. Basically stock setup, though I did do the ZJ conversion and it has the 3(?) washers on the steering for turning radius(?). So currently it has 235/75R15 Michelin Defenders on it, which IMO don't look right on a Jeep, but there has been nothing wrong with so...

I am working on a hoist setup for removing the hardtop on our TJ. I have built the frame from other threads on this site and I picked up a harbor freight 110v electric hoist to do the job of lifting the top.....I want it for other tasks as well, such as hoisting stuff to the loft in my garage...

01 TJ Sport with the 4.0l engine. The power steering gear box has been leaking for a while. I had asked before and was told a place in Texas, maybe West Texas ***, does a great job on rebuilding. I started looking that route and spoke with them once or twice as my Sister-In-Law has family in...

I am looking for a 110v winch/hoist, but trying to weigh my options for use. First and foremost I want to use it to hoist up my TJ's top up to the 10' ceiling in my garage. I built a frame using Unistrut, now I just have to figure out a hoist setup and I like the idea of an electric winch for...

Been getting a check engine code, not sure which one now as I haven't scanned recently, but it's for the evap system in our 2001 TJ Sport. I replaced a solenoid in engine bay, that did nothing. I'm told there is also something under driver door, I haven't crawled under to trace that yet, but...

Just going over the bulbs and I don't feel the tail lights with 1157/58 are very bright. I just redid backup lights in my yukon and went with led and omg, so much brighter. I also added LEDs for the side marker on jeep and what a difference. Can I get away with LEDs for the tail and...

Bought this 01 Jeep TJ Sport a little over year ago. It's kept me somewhat busy with little things suspension, rear brakes, now power steering pump is slated for swap. She's pretty much bone stock for now as my teen drives it. She has about 125k miles and the only error is a fuel system code...

Been fighting these codes for some time on our 01 TJ Sport 4.0l. I replaced the purge valve, gas cap and I've looked over the lines that I can see. I'm debating dropping the fuel tank next, but I just saw something else saying there should be a diagram of the system under the hood....well the...

So I need to replace the front brakes on our 01 TJ Sport. Simple enough, but looking for some feedback on setup. Long/Short, I replaced the rear back in the fall, front still ok, and ended up having to buy new plain jane rotors as well....couldn't believe what it all cost, but that's besides...

So, the overflow tank on 01 TJ apparently, came loose and rubbed on power steering pulley. It has a hole just above full mark, I sealed it and gorilla tapped it for now and put it back in position. Do I just buy a plastic one on Amazon or similar or an aluminum one? Any benefit other...

Gear box is leaking, seems to be on the top . This on our 01 TJ. Has anyone rebuilt theirs? A buddy, who's a diesel mechanic says they shouldn't be too hard, most people just shy away from them. I'm not afraid of tackling the job, but it's my daughters and so I'm worried, I get it torn out...

01 wrangler sport A/c compressor is cycling a lot so I figure it's low on refrigerant. Daughter told me her ac stopped and I said yeah, it needs charged. Later my wife told me the blower wasn't blowing. Needless to say I went out and we investigated. Low speed works, so my guess is...
