My 02 has the NV3550 and I have zero complaints, but I know the AX5 is the preferred transmission. I have a line on one for $200, although I don't really know about the condition. Is this a swap I should undertake, or at least have the AX5 on hand for whenever the time comes? And then, what...

I picked up some JK wheels & tires, so now I need adapters to correct the bolt pattern. Figuring out what size spacer is probably more confusing to me than it should be, but here goes. I guess question 1 is what is the minimum thickness spacer to clear the existing studs? And then...

I've noticed this recently, but wasn't sure if it was a new thing or not, until my kid said something about it yesterday. '97 / 6cyl / auto. When I come to a stop, like from maybe 15mph down to 0mph I'm experiencing a low rumble. RPMs arent fluctuating, it feels tires/suspension related...

Im very very bad about keeping my garage clean, so let’s get that out of the way. Over a year ago I had worked on a transmission that had taken on a lot of water. I drained that into my catch pan, and then transferred that to an empty ATF jug to be recycled. Fast forward a year+ and I...

I was inside with the kids, wife & daughter came home to find daughter’s 97 pushed 3/4 of the way into the driveway and a crapton of debris in the street. I never even heard a noise but it must’ve been loud, and dude must’ve been *moving*. Jeep was moves about 11 feet & 3 of the tires got up...

I've spent a LOT of time in the wiring diagrams for the 02 over the past few days trying to trouble shoot a TCC code, no backup lights, evap codes, and a Fuse #11 that keeps blowing. Based on prior experience, I was expecting to find a rotten section of harness over the top of the transmission...

99% sure it’s just my ignition switch. I replaced it with a cheapo brand last year…this is the first time a cheap part has let me down. It’s been a-ok until just now. Tried to start, just accessories. Not sure if fuel pump came on. Eventually it cranked over and started. When I got...

Somebody recently posted here about using some sort of Krylon for their black or charcoal dash and it looked like it turned out great. Does anyone have a similarly good recommendation for a tan/khaki/saddle/whatever interior?

The PO seems to have left the harness almost completely intact, other than a redneck job on the aftermarket stereo (no crimps, no solder, just twist & tape. He also wired in a switch for the LED halos, and he did such a hack job on that all we had to do was pull the wire out of the fuse socket...

Helping a friend but I don’t have access to wiring diagrams. Here’s what I know. When we turn the key the starter relay clicks. We jumped the starter relay and the starter turned. I jumped the NSS and it still won’t start. I have 12v at the NSS. Im at a loss at this point.

Will an XJ high pinion Dana 30 bolt directly into my TJ? And then from a gearing standpoint, the Dana 30 in a JK is a high pinion, so will JK gears from a Dana 30 work in this axle? I have a line on a cheap HP 30, and I’m already in possession of NEW reverse cut gears for a JK Dana 30.

https://www.facebook.com/share/197xxw4T7S/?mibextid=wwXIfr It’s for a manual trans. Not sure if a used radiator is interesting. If it were closer I’d get it myself.

Came out of the forward cooling port of a 32RH on a ‘97. I can’t (yet?) see into the bore, so I don’t know what shape it’s supposed to be mating up to. The fitting is squared off, with no flare anywhere.

For starters, I'm not an overlander, nor do I have much interest in overlanding. Or what most people just call camping. Whatever you call it, I love driving my jeep but I want to sleep in a bed at night. Now be that as it may, my crew is doing one of these longer trails in Arkansas that...

https://www.overlandtrailguides.com/post/high-water-mark-trail I think we're doing this first week in June. Not sure if I'm going to be able to go or not, have to travel for work and also the Stars will hopefully be skating for the cup at the same time, and yes, I do have my priorities...

Is this a thing we've seen in the wild? A guy reached out to me on FB about transmission help, and I was/am surprised to learn that it was possible for an 02 to have a 42RLE.... which means they started changing wiring too. Definitely never heard of this before, but I guess it's not super...

I've posted multiple times my strategy for sourcing leaks on an auto, but my methods are failing me this time. I KNOW the transmission is leaking, I've seen the level drop over a period of months. And there is a drip under the jeep, but drips themselves can be misleading as to the source...

The 02 I picked up last week has a hard top with the side vents. Well, it has the holes where the vents used to be. Installing new vents shouldn't be a problem, but I'm wondering what goes on behind the vents. Since they're gone, I can peek in and see that they're essentially open to the...

First off, no telling what bubba did before I got it. Jeep is an 2002 automatic. The jeep itself is in a friend's garage, but I have the transmission and the tiny section of the harness that connects the NSS & TCC. Some of the wires were cracked so I'm in the process of splicing new wires...

Found in rural OK on Marketplace. Said it was an 03/04, ran fine but lost forward gears. No visible rust in pics & videos in the ad, confirmed by my scout up there. Hard top, full doors. Interior is ok, but not bad by any means. Dana 44 rear. Clean title, asking $2500. Upon vin check, it's...
