    Rough Idle on 2000 4.0

    Occasionally my engine idles a bit slow and rough. Running it over 3000 rpm makes it go away for a period of time lasting anywhere from a few days to weeks. I did change the Coil Pack last year and although it seems to run smoother, the periodic rough idle remains. Any ideas? Thanks Mucho JJ

    Temp acting up after radiator replacement

    Hey Guys, I had the radiator on the 2000 4.0 replaced last week. The temp gauge is showing pretty cool (like 180ish maybe) for a fairly long time upon the first trip of the day and will eventually get up to 210. Yesterday after about an hour on the highway, I noticed the temp was a bit over...

    Air Pods

    Just thought I would share this. I bought the 2nd generation air pods a few days ago and took a 100 mile round trip in the TJ with the soft top up. WOW. The noise canceling on these is amazing. The drive was almost silent. I played music on a very low setting and heard no traffic noise...

    32RH transmission issue

    My 2000 TJ tranny (auto) was rebuilt a few years back. It had been operating normally but over the last few months is has not. This is an Automatic but i will describe the issue as if it was a manual. This only happens in the first few minutes on the first drive of the day. Start the engine...

    Does anyone make a non-angry grille cover?

    My grill is a bit beat up from 200K miles of driving and another 100K of towing behind our house on wheels. I will be getting a paint job in the future, but for now i would like to use a grill cover. Does anyone make one that is not an angry animal? Not looking for a bra. I did find a carbon...

    Auxiliary brakes for TOAD TJ?

    We have been full timing in a 40foot DP for 9 years now. We tow a TJ without an aux brake. Have logged over 100K on the road this way. I don’t notice any difference between towing and not towing. With or without a aux brakes, you need to drive at least 1/2 mile up the road. I always run...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I though the same thing when I lost my 14 year old. I was crushed. A year later the wife was begging for another. I gave in. I didn’t realize how much I was still grieving after a year after his death. The puppy really helped. Been four years now since Santa died. I still cry.

    Who has the highest miles?

    195K on my 2000. Runs great. New tranny but it was my fault for not putting the TC in neutral and dragging it behind the motorhome for about 7 hours. Sure made a funny smell. Bought it new shoes today. WOW. So smoooooth.
