replaced the rubber pieces on my hood latches with red ones from Daystar! Just back from new clutch, flywheel and u joints at shop. Planned to do the u joints myself this spring. But since the shop had to drop the drive shafts to do the clutch, I figured they could do the u joints for me...

Didn't mention this in prior posts, but the engine is the 2.5 not the 4.0. May or may not have a difference in the parts in the LuK clutch kits.

The bearing that came with my LuK clutch kit was NOT the composite one. It was all metal and looked like the National Bearing. I have seen pictures of the composite one, and this was nothing like it in my kit.

Good Advice Jerry, Thanks. Cheap enough to replace the flywheel, so since would be apart at the shop, might as well go for the whole set up. Keeping this Jeep till I can't drive anymore, then, passing down to my son. So updating parts as I go that may become an issue. Spending the kids...

I figured the flywheel was cheap enough, and since the transmission would be out at the shop, might as well replace it. Only 94,000 miles but figure on keeping this Jeep and passing down to my son, so updating parts as I go.

Ordered my LuK clutch kit and LuK flywheel last week. After reading the pros and cons for and against the stock LuK clutch release bearing, I also ordered the National Bearing. When I opened the clutch kit the bearing in the kit from LuK was all metal. It was NOT a composite and did not have...

A good friend of mine's son bought a new 2021 Wrangler Sahara. Spent a load of cash for it, new. It has been in the shop twice for electronic chip issues. Sat once I think he said for 2 weeks waiting on parts....chips are in short supply. Lots of cash for a vehicle that you can't drive cause...

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DNJWBGJ/?tag=wranglerorg-20 5 star reviews. I believe you can purchase individuals too. I bought the pair. Installed in about 10 minutes. And they stay adjusted.

Just like any resource you have to be sure of what you are buying. I purchased the new style side mirrors for my 2002 TJ. Old mirrors would not stay adjusted. Reviews were awesome on these $50 pair of knock off new style mirrors. They bolted right on and were awesome for the money! Next I...

Thanks. I ended up going with the TYC for about $12 more than the Ultra-Power. Reason was it was the only one with the limited Lifetime warranty. It was in stock and should ship very soon. I figured for $51 with shipping and tax even if the stock one has some junk on it, cheap repair and...

Heater Blower Motor making the chirping sounds at all speeds. Clears up at times, but suspect the motor needs replacing. I will pull it first and look for debris. Anyone have any brands they would recommend for replacement? I can get a little price break on Murray, locally, at O'Reilly. But...

I no longer use QT as my go to...now I shop everybody, regardless of price, if I need the item. Have gotten product from Extreme Terrain that was in stock with them and not QT. In fact QT kept changing the available ship dates when ET had the item in stock, same price, free shipping. Recently...
