    Body Mount Bolts Lubrication

    I apologize if this has been discussed already, but I did a search and couldn’t find what I was really looking for. I’ve seen many people cutting apart their floorboards and doing all kinds of weird stuff to try and lubricate the body bolts before they put on a body lift or change out a body...

    241 vs Atlas ll

    I have a 97 TJ with a 4.0 and AX-15. I am thinking of doing a transfer case swap. I originally was going to go with a 241 to replace my 231, but after looking at the price for a used 241, I am contemplating the Atlas ll. The Atlas is only about $500-$600 more than a used 241. I have read a few...

    Synthetic Winch Line Thimble

    I am thinking about changing my hook on my synthetic winch line to a thimble. Factor 55 seems to be the big name in thimbles, but I had heard some time ago that they were having problems with their thimbles. Is this still true or are they a good piece of equipment? Is there other manufacturers...

    Control Arm Help

    I have a 1997 TJ 4.0 5 speed manual and I was in the process of changing my rear upper control arm bushings. I pulled the bolts out and found that the OEM bushings have these nubs in them and the replacements do not. Also there seems to be a lot of play with the mounting bolt in the old and new...

    Heater Core Replacement Suggestions?

    I did a search on this subject, but was coming up empty. About 8 months ago I replaced the heater core in my 97 TJ and last week it started leaking again. I had to go with a Spectra brand heater core from Napa, because I couldn't find a Mopar one. My question is, has anyone had any success with...

    Another Crank, No Start Thread

    Here is a little background. I have a new engine installed in January. I was driving when I had a miss-shift and over-reved the engine. My oil pressure went to 0 and it was missing very badly. I towed it home and saw that the hold down tab on the distributor broke. I replaced the distributor...

    What is the deal with Metalcloak?

    I was just curious, but I saw that someone had made a post about Metalcloak not being a desirable manufacturer. I was wondering what brought people to that conclusion? I looked at their products and they seem to be made well. Am I missing something? Thanks, Igoo65
