    License Plate Relocation Idea

    I'm thinking about deleting my spare and relocating the license plate and of course the license plate light wire is a minor issue. Here is the path I'm on so far to address it. My question, for anyone that has done this already, is there value in custom door jamb contacts to support the brake...

    '99 to '02 Trans Swap

    I have a 2002 with a leaking 32RH. It also clicks from the bell housing. Long story short, I think the PO ran it low on trans fluid, damaged the the torque converter and then let the bank repossess it when he found out the cost to repair it. I was able to pick up a trans from a froum...

    Other than the release button is there any real difference between a steering column in a auto vs standard?

    Motor mount brackets ripped from block

    One of my project jeeps was side swiped while the PO still owned it. The driver side motor mount brack bolts were ripped from the block. Can I assume the only fix is a new block? If so what are my donor options?

    Is there a definitive guide to wiring harnesses?

    Is there a definitive guide to wiring harnesses? I’m getting in to a build project and I think having the correct harness might be my biggest issue. Here’s the story… I bought a 2nd Jeep as a “parts car” but it turned out to be a better project than a “parts car”. It was a bare bones 2002 X...

    Metal Clunking Noise When Turning

    It never seems to be "just upgrade/repair one thing" with a TJ. That first project always seems to expose other issues that need to be addressed. I have a metal "clunking" noise when my wheels are turned and I hit a bump. It's occasionally there when I turn aggressively with some speed but...

    32RH Won't Engage When Warm

    I have a 2002 6 cylinder auto. When the rig is cool it drives almost normal, there is some lag between stepping on the gas while in reverse. Once warmed up the trans doesn't engage at all. It's almost as if it's in neutral regardless of what gear its in. I pulled the pan and the filter is...

    Bulbs or Flasher Ralay

    I just replaced my break bulbs with LEDs. When both sides have LEDs in and the blinker is on (left turn or right turn) both sides flash. (think hazards) If one side has a standard bulb or both sides have a standard bulb then everything works as expected. The flasher relay was replaced a...

    2002 X Build

    I’m not sure what kind of thread this will become but I figured someone might want to go along for the ride. My normal day consists of dropping the kids off at school, working from home and then picking the kids up after school. Any other driving is optional or can be done in the wife’s Kia...

    Vibration at 60 mph

    I feel like I should be sitting in a circle in the basement of a church attending a weekly support group. “Hello my name is Jim and I have a TJ that vibrates.” I really did try to find the answer before I created another “vibration” thread and before I started throwing money at the problem I...
