    Tachometer dips while at highway speed

    I have a 97 TJ, 4.0, with 32RH, 4.10 gears, ~29/30" tires. Engine runs well, no issues, fresh oil, fresh trans fluid and filter. Took a trip to the silver lake sand dunes a couple weeks ago and ran into an interesting issue I am having trouble diagnosing. While driving on the expressway at...

    Are stock 3.07 axles worth anything?

    I recently installed a set of axles from a 4 cylinder with 4.10's and removed my stock 3.07 axles. Now I don't know what to do with my stock axles, are they worth anything? If not how can I get rid of them?

    Warn VR8 sale

    Just found the Warn VR8 gen 2 on sale for $275, which seems like a steal to me for a warn winch. When I got one it said limited stock so I just wanted to share if anyone was interested. https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/warn-vr-series-gen-ii-winch

    Muffler Heat

    I am having an issue where my rear passenger floor pan is getting hot enough to melt the floor mat and the rear drain plugs. I found this because I was removing the mats and cleaning the interior to install Bedrug. I dont have carpet now and there is no heat shield on the muffler so I assume...

    Is there a chance I can remove my transfer case drop?

    About two years ago I did a BDS 2" lift and got about 2.5" of lift. I also got a drive line vibration at anything above 40mph. My fix temporarily was to drop the transfer case skid by 1" and that solved my problem. Recently just upgraded my gearing from 3.07 to 4.10 by swapping diffs with a...

    Rock Auto customer service sucks

    I recently purchased 5 spicer ujoints to replace all the joints in my drive shafts. I tore down my shafts which was quite a process considering they were stock ujoints on a 1997 tj that has lived its whole life in Michigan. When I went to install my new joints I had four of the correct part...

    Detroit Axle Control Arms vs Crown Control Arms

    Has anyone used or heard anything about the Detroit Axle stock control arms on Amazon? I was originally planning on using the Crown stock control arm replacements but the Crown is $56 more. I have about a 2" lift and 31" tires and don't need anything fancy so I think the stocks should be fine...

    Does anyone know the proper etiquette for parking a vehicle on the street?

    I just recently purchased a new house and for the first time ever I will be living in a neighborhood. We are in a cul-de-sac which will be much better for our kids than the busy streets we were on before. We have a 2 car garage and a short driveway 2 cars wide. I have three vehicles including...

    Should I be concerned over used 4.10 axles with high miles?

    I have a 97 with a 4.0L with the 32RH auto and 31" tires (with plans to go to 33") and currently have the 3.07 gears. I found a set of axles from a 99 4cyl with 4.10 gears for $300 about a half hour from me but they have 216,000 miles on them. I am concerned with the high miles as the point of...

    Deceleration Vibration

    My TJ has done this since I have had it. At first I thought it was the brakes but after replacing the rotors and pads in the front and the rear drums and shoes there was no change at all. Jeep rides smooth when accelerating at any speed but when coasting or not pressing on the gas pedal I get...

    How-To: No-Weld Rusty Floors

    New to the forum and thought I would share my floor pan and torque box repair. Just purchased a 97 Jeep Wrangler Sahara with 135k for very cheap to be used as an off road toy. Being that its spent its entire life in Southern Michigan it has been salted to near death. My frame is still solid...
