    2005 LJ Frame Options

    So despite knowing its a bad financial decision, I've decided to do a "restoration" on my 2005 LJ. I know I'll have way more money into it than it will ever be worth, but I'm sentimentally attached to this specific one so I don't want to just buy one in better condition. Primary reasons for the...

    Codes Everywhere (P0129, P0344, P0340, P0300)

    Was very excited to start up the Jeep this week after its been sitting for a while, and be greeted with a check engine light, and the 4 love letters below from my Bosch reader. Has a harder time than usual starting, and drops RPMs. Sometimes it will stall and other times it just keeps dropping...

    Removing Seat Risers / Brackets

    I'm looking to remove the front seat risers / floor brackets from my 2005 Unlimited so I can sand off some rust and repaint them. I feel stupid even asking but I can't figure out how to remove them from the seat itself and couldn't find a thread on it here, or much via Google / Youtube. Am I...

    Bolt Size for Stock Tire Carrier

    Was just hoping to verify before I went out and bought the hardware, are the holes for the stock tire carrier 5/16"-18? Or is it something metric? This is for a 2005 Unlimited if the year matters. Looking to install a spare delete panel and I don't have the stock hardware anymore. Thanks for...

    Best Way to Tackle Door Hinges

    Hey all, how would you go about cleaning up this rusted door hinge? Try and clean up what's there somehow? Or replace things? It's on a half door if that matters, snd the Jeep was repainted a few years ago. I assume getting those bolts out is an almost impossible task? Thanks in advance for...

    Rear Seat Rail Removal

    Hey all, I'm trying to remove the rear seat rails on my 2005 LJ but am running into some issues. I'm not able to break the bolts loose with penetrating fluid and my impact, and am afraid of shearing them if I use a breaker bar. Other than possibly breaking the bolts and having to drill them...

    Roof Racks: Gobi vs Garvin

    Looking to purchase a roof rack for my 2005 LJ, and I've narrowed it down to the Gobi Ranger or the Garvin Wilderness rack. From all my research it seems everyone loves the Gobi, but its a few hundred bucks more, and a 3 month wait. Versus the Garvin which I can order from anywhere and have it...

    Where do these plug into?

    I feel this is going to be a dumb question, but where do these 2 plugs, plug into? Just got my Jeep back from being painted, and I don't know if they were always unplugged and I just never noticed, or if the body shop forgot to do something. I can't find anything that doesn't work. Thanks in...

    Fresh Paint

    Decided to pull the trigger on some paint and went from my dull beat up and scratched to death black to a 2012+ bright white. Thinking of keeping the sliders off for a cleaner look. Thoughts? They were just for looks, as I don't do anything hardcore enough with the Jeep to really use them...

    Highline Rear Fenders?

    Hey all, is there some sort of highline kit for the rear fenders? I like how the flares sit on this LJ. Or did they just drill holes and mount them higher? Thanks!
