I'm hoping to get some ideas for what is wrong before I have to take my 97 2.5L in to a mechanic. Been trying to pass emissions since June. Here's what I've replaced: both 02 sensors, CCV valve, evap canister and evap purge solenoid. I put some of the gumout in and ran through a tank of gas...

First I thought this was a bad pulley or belt, but that's not where the sound seems to be coming from. It seems to be coming from the bottom of the vehicle, maybe right below where the firewall is? Hard to really isolate. Check out the video for the sound. My neighbor thinks it could be an...

Didn't see anything specifically on point, so I'm wondering if we can get a thread going on the best double din bezel options for our TJs. I've got a 97, and I see a few options on Amazon for the double din bezel replacements. Do you all have any opinions on which kit is the best?

Was getting a loud squeeking noise and at low speeds a clunking...did some investigation and found that what I think is the CV joint in front of the T-Case on the front drive shaft had shredded a bit and the bushing has disintegrated. Can someone confirm that what is in the drive shaft joint...

Need some help - looks like oil or maybe power steering fluid is getting all over wiring and dripping down onto the steering shaft. The pics below show the small hoses that are wet...what are these?? Couldn’t figure it out and I have a 1000 mile road trip upcoming.

I managed to snap the retaining housing on the havoc box for the temperature housing. Any ideas on how to fix this? It would be nice to be able to use heat after all that work replacing the core...

Any thoughts on how I’ve got this mocked up so far? Just want a sanity check to make sure nothings too crazy. Will add wire loom, but you can see the general run I’m considering. Also, how am I supposed to waterproof the fuse?? It’s only covered by this plastic cover, and I think water...

I’m in the final stages of replacing the heater core. Need help with two things: The two wires in a yellow connector on the steering column fell out of the connector (it was mostly destroyed by a PO, really!) can anyone tell me which colors go to which side? Here’s a pic of the connector and...

Anyone know if it’s possible to replace the hvac vacuum lines that are in the harness? The line that runs from the interior harness through the firewall is cracked and rather than try to jury rig some replacement I thought it might be best to directly replace it. Thing is, I can’t find...

Are the 97 AC lines not quick disconnects? I’m in the middle of replacing my heater core and it looks like they just come off by unscrewing a nut on each line?

I've been getting such bad alternator whine on my CB it's unusable when driving. I'm trying to figure out if maybe a ground connection installed at the factory has been removed or has broken off. So far I've freshened up the ground points and bolts: -on the hood -in the top center of the...

Someone here pointed out that my front suspension is going to need some work in the near future (thanks for the heads up). As luck would have it, there’s a guy on Craigslist selling the stock suspension from his 2006 Rubicon for 150 bucks (the stuff has 20k miles on it). Will this be plug and...

I'm trying to get my rear defogger to work. As far as I can tell, the lines might just barely warmer than the glass (I'm not even sure if I was just imagining it) but not warm enough to actually work. Here's the situation: -The light on the rear defogger switch illuminates when I press it...

Am I going nuts? The FSM seems to indicate that the front bolt hole on the manifold does not get bolted down? I don’t have a bolt there right now but figured it should have one. Someone explain this to me:

I’ve been trying to get my heat to work well and noticed that with the heat on full blast there’s a strong current of air coming from the firewall (where the vacuum hose goes in). Pictured below. Is this normal? Seems like it wouldn’t be...what’s wrong?

Is this the sway bar end link? And can anyone point me to a recommended replacement?
