    California 2003 TJ for sale. $8100 obo

    Selling our 2003 TJ. My kids drove this thing through high school and I never got the chance to take it on any trails. It has a salvage title due to accident back in 2010 (I have the car fax report). Jeep had the lift when we bought it. Just put in a Adams Drive shaft and slip yoke...

    Bushing looking mangled.

    This is the bushing on the front passenger side of my kids TJ. What do you think caused this? Should we cease driving and fix? He’s not going anywhere but school (1.5 miles each way). What should I do to remedy this so it doesn’t happen again? Thx in advance for any advice.

    SYE and drive shaft kit from Adam's Driveshafts

    Copy that. That’s guys for the input. My buddy who is more mechanically inclined than me is going to help me out. That way if I get stuck he can pull me out. I just need more confidence in the auto mechanic world. I am just a caveman when it comes to that stuff.

    TJ towing a boat

    Can a 2003 TJ 4.0 tow a 2500 lb boat? My buddy wants to get a Jeep and he has a boat that he needs to be towed. Any experiences or advice you can share would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Michigan 2001 TJ Sport full part out

    The SYE and the driveshaft...will these fit right into my 03 TJ with 3.5" lift. I have a vibration during acceleration and Ive been advised that I need a SYE and new CV driveshaft.

    Yeah, I'll save up for the SYE and CV drive shaft fix. I'll just get it done right and hopefully not have to worry about it again. Thanks for all the advise!!

    I have a crazy vibration around 50 mph

    So my buddy said it had 3.5” lift. The Jeep was lifted when he bought it. I measured 4” (someone on this forum told me how to measure from under the Jeep) but didn’t think there was much difference between 3.5 and 4”. The TC drop kit on looks like the standard 1” drop kit. They are the black...

    So I do have a TC drop kit already. I took off the drive shafts and the u joints are all looked good. Tires inflated to 26 lbs. (that’s what I was told was a good pressure for 33’s). Right rear rim was slightly bent, replaced that. Still got the vibration. My buddy who is helping me and is...

    I have a crazy vibration around 50 mph

    It has always vibrated like this. Ive had the Jeep for a couple of years but only drove it around town as It was my oldest son's when he turned 16. It does not have a TC drop or MML. Hope that helps. The Jeep does not sit for very long. I drive it often, especially in the summer just not on...

    I have a crazy vibration around 50 mph

    Took the Jeep up to the cabin this past weekend. While travelling on the roads at around 50 mph I felt a crazy vibration in the seat, steering wheel, etc. When I let off the gas the vibration disappeared. When I am driving at slower speed I do not feel it. From what I read on previous post...
