    Painting prep question

    It looks like you have a PSB paint code jeep. Let me know how yours color matches. I've tried one from Amazon and it was way too dark.

    Rear shock bolts

    Hey, what works, works!

    Rear shock bolts

    Found the access holes, looks like there's one of these on either side, and an access hole only in the top tub on the driver's side. Explains all the rust in the area.

    Rear shock bolts

    I'm going with the Zone 4.25 Kit, ends up being $400 shipped without shocks, add some Ranchos for another $200, a JKS front adjustable for $200, and you end up with a sweet lift for $800 out the door.

    Rear shock bolts

    PO was not mechanically inclined, so all service was done by good shops, and well maintained. I'm going to check later to see if there's any access holes, but I'm gonna guess they either dropped the gas tank, or lifted the body from the frame. Good news is, it's getting a body lift next week...

    Rear shock bolts

    Wow that's clean, must of been a pretty penny for something like that around here.

    Rear shock bolts

    It's a NJ Jeep, so if there wasn't some brown on it I would be more shocked. I've checked the inside and there is a little flaking at skid mount points but it is still very solid and thick. Trying to price shop if its worth cleaning it all out, or just save me future trouble and just capping it...

    Rear shock bolts

    Started spraying liquid wrench on every bolt that might need to be taken off in preparation for a lift install next week, and noticed my rear upper shock bolts are reversed. It's a 2003, bone stock, only one owner, and what looks like stock shocks. Explains why it still rides soft I guess...

    Help me read my alighemnt specs

    Hey, nice Jeep! I live down the street from this shop and always wondered how their service was.

    Frame rust

    Since it's a private seller, you are pretty much SOL, but you can still try and see if they have a heart. They probably put the under-coating on just for a sell. I see you are pretty far from Linden, NJ. But Ozkar Garage is there, and he would do the repair for half that, everybody in NJ goes...

    Help Diagnosing Engine Knock

    It definitely seemed to me like it was louder underneath the engine, or at least had more clarity.

    Help Diagnosing Engine Knock

    Yeah a shop that just does engine/transmission work. At first he was 100% sure it was a loose rocker or rod, but after inspection didn't see anything wrong with them. I was sure it was a broken piston skirt, so luckily it ended up not being that. Goodluck on your search. I still sometimes hear...

    Help Diagnosing Engine Knock

    Your last video sounds similar to the sound mine was making. It wouldn't do the ticking sound until around 30 seconds after the engine started up, or when first revving it a little. This is the sound mine was making, and it ended up being lifters, which I got replaced.

    Upgrading the sound system on your Jeep Wrangler TJ

    Thanks for uploading the files (although looks like there is an issue with the tweeter mount upload). It sounds like the Blams may be the way to go then. Although I may pass on the signature series ones and go relax... I can see why they must sound better than the polks at that price lol. Now...

    Upgrading the sound system on your Jeep Wrangler TJ

    I'm looking to do this same setup. How would u rate it against what you replaced? Pricing it out would be similar to the Polks that everyone gets, but polks look to be made out of better quality material with poly cones, etc. Researching the Blam's they have a paper cone. And if there's any...
