With this title, I thought you were talking about my children…

Seems so, yes.

Finally got round to adjusting the transfer case linkage (was reluctant to stay in 4H) Or at least got #1 offspring to do it (he doesn’t get backache the way I do!) Yes, I know that rust on the frame needs attention..

And an old one but worth reposting - in the Shropshire hills

Just chillin' in the English countryside

Sorry, late to the party - yes, that’s exactly like my UK spec 2001 TJ. Turn on headlights then pull the stalk. Required to pass annual MOT inspection here. You probably got one as it became part of standard LHD export spec.

I do get a few people when I’m in my Jeep (especially with the top down) who are jealous. I think they think I’m having more fun than they are. And I am.

My TJ is totally stock, 2001, and I don’t take it off road much. My options for maintenance and inspections (‘MOT’ in UK language) are 1. Local mom & pop garage, always looked after me well and service my other older vehicles, don’t rip me off, but not Jeep experts; 2. Off road specialist 35...

Just removed and replaced my headlights (Hella H4 ones) so I could install Phillips Xtremevision Pro 150 bulbs. Good improvement. But the mounting screws (the ones holding the actual headlight mounting ring, not the shiny bezel) are very corroded and really need replacement. Anyone know the size?

I asked this elsewhere ( Post in thread 'Single DIN touch screen' https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/single-din-touch-screen.50594/post-1214384) but to be fair that was thread drift. In the UK there are several tempting replacement head units (ex. Xtrons) advertised as compatible with...

My TJ (2001 manual) has a rattle when pulling away from a standing start. Seems to come from the transmission. Happens about 90% of the time. I’ve had it for 15 years and it’s always done it as far as I can recall, though it’s maybe getting worse. (I bought it at 60,000 and it’s currently on...

Last year I replaced the faded top on my TJ with a SuperTop NX. Annoyingly yesterday when I went to put my top back on (weather in the UK having started to get chilly, and I had a 75 mile drive to do on a 50 degree morning) I found I was missing the pin at the corner of the door surround which...

This. They’ll ship internationally. Many, many US websites just won't.

We have Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras all over the place. They link to the Police National Computer which can check if the car has insurance, if the annual tax has been paid (we don’t pay annually for registration but it comes to the same thing) and, if the car is over 3 years old...

kiwi black is getting hard to find here - you can only get the 'superior' Parade Gloss which perversely doesn’t bull boots as well as the cheaper version.
