I was driving Ol Blue home last night just after dark with the doors off and got to smelling hot coolant. As I was only a few miles from home, it hadn't started to get into the red yet, so I started babying it to keep the temp down. About the last 3/4 mile or so, it got into the red but never...

Since my wife went into the hospital a few weeks ago and I've been doing a lot of driving home at night, I've finally starting to look at this crazy beeping that comes out of the dash when the headlights are on in my '05 LJ. It's been doing doing this for a good while but I haven't been driving...

Apparently FCA is planning on a small SUV to be released in 2022 and compete with the Suzuki worldwide. No word if it'll be released here. https://www.foxnews.com/auto/bad-ass-baby-jeep-2022 Supposed to be shorter than a Wrangler but longer than a MB.

The compass/temp function on my mirror basically displays hieroglyphics. See attached pic. I've went through several threads here on the darn mirrors and I'm starting to think that my 221 didn't leave the factory in anything Jeep. There's an extra wire run that comes out of the case next...

What's the difference in the coil springs between a Rublicon LJ and a regular LJ? The rear of my regular LJ seems to want to sag pretty easy with a heavy load and I'm looking at something a bit more heavy duty while maintaining a stock ride height. I'm not interested in lifting it though...

My steering gear box is leaking up from around the input shaft. I'd like to keep it stock if possible, but darn those rebuilt Mercedes boxes are pricey. I keep seeing rebuild kits for one. Has anyone here put new seals into their's? And had any success with it? I've never done a steering...

Ok, it's probably a dumb question as I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I had my front wheels off a couple of days ago and the holes in my brake rotors are oversized for the lug studs and allow the rotors to move back and forth about a quarter inch on the hubs. The holes are round which...

Poppin' I haven't had much time lately to do much with my '05 LJ but I did go on about a 50 mile round trip with it pulling a single axle utility trailer to get some large rolls of chicken wire earlier this week. I've been getting a popping coming out from underneath it that I haven't been...

After a few months of occasional rough running and idling after it warms up, the CEL popped up this morning with a P0303 code (#3 cyl misfiring) on the '05 LJ. I'd been thinking that with over 165K and no idea on previous maintenance, a new coil and plugs were in the cards, but I just hadn't...

I found a pic of a shift knob for a NSG370 6spd that I like, but I can't figure out where to find one like it. The pic of it is in a '15 JK, but I don't know if it's stock or aftermarket. Anyone see one like this before? And where might one be found? I'm liking the look of it.

I signed the deal on this one on Thursday and picked it up on Friday. '05 Wrangler Unlimited in Patriot Blue. 4.0, 6 speed manual, soft top and pretty much just a stock Unlimited with a few options like the chrome grille. It's had a few small things wrong that I'm working through, nothing...

I was trying get some basic info on my transmission and transfer case (oil capacity) the other night and went to Novak's research pages. There it said that some have been using 30w or 5w30 engine oil in either regular or synthetitc instead of ATF fluid in the NV231 transfer case. They claim...

I closed the deal on a 2005 Wrangler Unlimited yesterday. Metallic blue, chrome grille, 4.0 with the 6 speed, soft top, I haven't found a mod on it yet. This is my 3rd Jeep, the first two were CJ5s years ago. It's been over 30 years since I last owned one. I don't really plan on much...
