    Knocking and buzzing noise under shifter (2001 TJ, 123k miles, 32RH)

    Yes use the 1x to put pressure on the exhaust to keep it from vibrating. I’m guessing it’s the exhaust or the shifter cables.

    Knocking and buzzing noise under shifter (2001 TJ, 123k miles, 32RH)

    I’d get a piece of 1x1 wood and put tension on the exhaust pipes. Have your SO run thru the gears while your putting a lite amount of tension on the pipes to completely rule out the exhaust.

    What brand of tools do you recommend?

    My tools started with a Craftsman 300+ piece kit I bought for my H.S. Graduation back in the early 80’s. I’ve since added to it but , my tool of choice is Tekton tools now.

    New member with a lot of questions I didnt know I needed to ask...

    I agree 100%. That’s exactly what I did. I sold the wheels and tires and paid for the lower 2” lift kit and had money let over. I put the old Steelies on with 31’s and she’s a hell of a lot funnier to drive.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I replaced the original exhaust. I found out how useless the auto parts counter help really is. Two different parts stores told me that the muffler studs are 3/8-16. I told them that they were metric. I finally looked it up they are M10x1.5. I went to my local hardware store and picked up 2...

    Worst beer you've had?

    My neighbor decided to try his hand at brewing beer. On Halloween, 4 years ago, we all sat out drinking beer and handing out candy. He brought some of his homemade pumpkin beer, it was the worst beer that I have tasted. I tasted like a combination of seaweed and piss. It was so bad that I...
