Previous owner upgraded things up front but I don't know what brand it is. It's nice heavy duty stuff. Drag link is 1.25" diameter, but has no provision for connecting stabilizer but I figured that out. Drag link tie rod end looks to be 1" dia male thread. The track bar has an offset style of...

This is an Alien Sunshade, color blue, that I bought and tried on my Wrangler LJ (2006) The dimensions are 42" x 69", which matches the size for fitting the JK in other ads, it also fit nicely on my LJ. It fit good on my LJ but i liked the Besttop softtop better so removed it right away...

I have 2 sets of axle shafts for sale Asking $100 per set (1 driver side + 1 passenger side) plus the ride from Galveston, TX 77554 They fit 2003 - 2006 Jeep Rubicon I upgraded to RCV front axles in my 2006 LJ Rubicon so my originals and my spares are for sale. These include the inner shaft...

DW has a bunch of potential sources, and has been extensively covered prior to this posting. One source I've not seen discussed nearly as much is having axles parallel to one another. This is my experience I just had yesterday. Started getting death wobble at the usual 40'ish mph. I could...

Well, Yes and no, the PO didn't leave the control unit for the alarm with the dealer I got it from, so one day while I was fixing something else in the doors I yanked that stuff out. Still have some security box wired up under the dash,says Viper on it I think. Concerned if I remove it the jeep...

Thanks, maybe from the previous owners install of mega stereo system or alarm (which included elec door locks)

2006 lj rubicon. Found this while swapping in a new battery. it was in the cavity underneath the battery tray, just laying there, not connected at either end. Anyone recognize it?

I'm having a similar (but different) issue as the original poster. With the pitman arm parallel to the fore-aft axis of the jeep (06 LJ rubicon) my steering wheel is rotated 90 deg clockwise (blocks the view of the gauges). If I turn the steering wheel CCW to level it out, the pitman arm is...

Just found my clunk/creaking noise when turning left. Interference between the tie rod and the lower sway bar link bracket - drivers side - fwd point of that bracket. Sawzall to the rescue

Do you have the gas tank? Location (I'm in galveston)

at long last, an update - and resolution. First I printed out the wiring diagrams from the factory service manual, learning the symbols for wire colors, splices, grounds, etc. Located the fuel pump and associated wires coming out of it. Looked into where those wires ran on their way from the...

thanks, good place to start

Won't get to look into this until next week, so if anyone discovered a spot where their wiring insulation was damaged, exposing the wire to potential of shorting out, let me know where it was on the vehicle, especially as related to the wiring for the fuel pump. TIA

thanks Jerry, will do

thinking wiring issue now for sure. Replaced the fuse, it started and ran for a few minutes, I backed out of the garage, fine, put it in first, it died. Fuse blown replaced fuse, tried starting, just blew the fuse. So I think the pump is fine, it's just a short somewhere that I need to find...
