    How to determine if clock spring is bad?

    I'm about to do my clockspring. Just wanted to double check that this one has held up? I'd rather spend $40 than $140 especially because I don't drive it a lot. Thanks!

    U-joints: Did I do it right?

    Just curious where you got your Spicer 5-1310x. I'm going to do mine this winter and want to get the best price. Amazon is high I think.

    Looking to buy 1st Wrangler

    I know this isn't really on track for this conversation but just curious...my 2000 that I just bought (my 1st wrangler) doesn't have the TUPY, from what i can see. But it's at 170k with no signs of a cracked head. Do you think by now I've dodged that bullet? Whats good preventative maintenance...

    ZJ Tie Rod Conversion

    What's a good way to check if I really need it? I figured while I was already in there I might as well change it for $40. Theres a decent amount of play in the wheel.

    ZJ Tie Rod Conversion

    Planning on doing some steering work. I'm just going to knock it all out because my tie rod ends are about shot. This is what I have. Not a big off roader, just tightening things up. Crown HD kit Monroe Steering Stabilizer Moog Pitman arm

    What do you think about the cracks in my tires?

    For those of you wondering I haven't driven it! I'm getting new tires today and making some phone calls to see who can actually mount and balance them properly.

    What do you think about the cracks in my tires?

    Haha thanks everyone! I won't drive it until I get some new tires on it. I tried to read the DOT and I can't even tell what it says so that's a pretty clear indication of the age. I found some Dick Cepek Trail Country EXP 33x12.5x15 (same as I currently have) on facebook. Brand new for $680...

    What do you think about the cracks in my tires?

    Thanks everyone you guys are a wealth of knowledge! I figured the tires were bad news...Do you think they will be okay to drive a week or two as I search for new ones? Thanks for the extra insight also! I'll check on that TUPY and read more on that head issue. Yes, Vasq it's tight!

    What do you think about the cracks in my tires?

    Hey all, I just bought my first Jeep so I'm a Jeep novice. Any help in the coming months would be very much appreciated! First things is, what do you guys think about the cracks in these tires...I really don't want to replace them because they have a ton of tread on them. As far as I've noticed...
