    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I listed my TJ on Craigslist today. https://seattle.craigslist.org/est/cto/d/north-bend-1998-jeep-wrangler-tj/7179422983.html. My job is sending me away and the Jeep needs a new home. Very bittersweet. It is good to be employed.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Constant tension. Your finger runs it like your foot. It is a stubby and fits right under the hand. I will finish and drive it and see what it feels like.

    What are my flexplate bolts hitting?

    Looks like some rust eating your oil pan. I would give that a good cleaning and a protective coat of paint.

    I use Mobile 1 from Costco. 5.00 a quart. I sent a sample of my oil to Blackstone at 5000 miles and was told that I could go another 5. Sent another sample at 10000 which came back that the oil was not broken down and the metals look good. I still change every 5000 miles. I had a 98 VW...
