When I bought this TJ it had aftermarket flat fenders and no fender well liners so maybe it gets enough air flow compared to factory fenders. I’ve never had any overheating issues so far. I kind of like the louvre look though and I see those kits aren’t too expensive. What’s involved with the...

Yea I didn’t even think about that but I can see how cutting slots in a kite could help with the aerodynamics lol I could just picture the 27 year old latches giving up the ghost going 65 mph down the interstate lol so far so good with these latches but I haven’t been on the highway yet so we’ll...

Put some aluminum hood latches on. The flutter was real going down the interstate in tornado class winds the other day. These seem nice and tight so hopefully they’ll work out well.

Alignment time and 32’s. Time for a test drive now after that one armed workout lol

Found a decent set of TJ rims with some 32x10.50R15 Cooper Discoverer AT3 tires for $400. The next nice day I’ll try to get the old 235/75R15’s off and these on. I believe it’s about a 3” difference so they should fill up the wheel wells and look better than the stock sized tires.

It’s definitely good to be able to get out and do some stuff. Still adjusting to doing it all one handed but I figure shit out lol

Finally got my crippled ass in gear and got my winch installed. Still working on the wiring part but that should be pretty simple.

I’m looking into getting a roof rack for transporting cargo when we go on vacation this summer. I have a total of three people that will be in the TJ so removing the back seat is out of the question, although I have thought about purchasing a single bucket seat and fabricating a way to set the...

As some of you know I’ve been working on installing my rebuilt engine. I’ve been having issues getting it started after the install. After looking over everything I pulled my distributor to double check it was installed correctly. When I went to put it back it seems like no matter what I try...

I’m about to swap my engine out for the one I’ve been rebuilding for a few months now. My question is that I have two different alternators. One from a 97 ( my original) and one from a 00 model. The newer one has different wiring so I’m not sure it will work without splicing wires or maybe more...

Any engine builders in the group? When I was looking at my old block today before painting I noticed on the drivers side of each cylinder a single letter stamped into the block. Cylinder 1-3 has a C and cylinder 4 has a B. The FSM shows that the stamp is supposed to be located by the oil filter...

Found this rear 44 on marketplace for cheap. All the brackets and perches have been stripped off and someone was going to use it with a leaf spring application. Comes with the Barnes solid axle swap kit which looks like some U bolts and some brackets or plates. Would definitely need regeared...

Found this on Amazon today. Shipping time is 4-6 weeks according to the website but for $22 I rolled the dice and ordered it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H5W6B8H/?tag=wranglerorg-20

I just wanted to throw out there that there is a good sale on on Amazon for the Powertrax Grip Pro for the Dana 30 right now. Original price $539 on sale for $277.

I’ve been looking into replacing my 2.5l engine for a remanufactured engine. Found a few different online stores that sell them with decent warranties. I was wondering if anyone had any input as to good companies to buy from. A couple grand is a big investment and I don’t want it to be money...
