Thanks for the input Guys. Looks like I need to find a mechanic. Not sure that's something I can tackle. Rebuilt the engine in my 83 Monte Carlo. That was more than enough to let me know I'm not a great mechanic... ha

By the way this is on the driver side, middle of the engine. https://photos.app.goo.gl/om1YQKaT6HKSNS5Y7

Hi All, I have been chasing down a coolant leak for a bit now starting at the obvious places and checking them off the list as I go. I was scratching my head as to why I was still losing coolant at the tune of about half gallon every 2nd or 3rd time I'd drive it. Until today. I believe I found...

So following Rubicon88's suggestion about checking the rear tail light area, I also remembered someone else in the forum saying that they had a bulb filament shorting out their lights. So with that in mind I looked at the bulbs and they were blackened on the top of the glass bulb so I changed...

Wow! Alright!! My TJ never came with a manual. Thanks for the info CharlesHS

Mine is a TJ but just sold our 2002 TJ hard top. Asked $900 sold it for $850. Took about 3 weeks but the right buyer found me

I was going to say yes everything is fine before the bump but my wife just reminded me that when we were out for the test drive after replacing the MFS the fuse had blown while driving. We were waiting in line at mcdonalds and so I took the opportunity to switch out the fuse. Before we got the...

Ok I'll need to get some of that stuff. I dont have a multimeter. the TJ has a hitch and it does have a hitch plug but I've Owned this TJ for over 5 years and all this lighting problem just started 3 weeks ago. 😟 yeah wiring is a pain to troubleshoot in my experience

K thanks I'll Check it out

Hi everyone, About 3 weeks ago I started having lighting issues. I don't drive my jeep a lot at night so I'm not sure exactly when this started happening, but for sure 3 weeks ago it was happening and continues, just seems to be getting progressively worse. 3 weeks ago we found out that we...

This is still on the subject of rust so I will ask it here... There is a little bit of rust on the rear near the driver side tail light. It's all surface and is not bubbling up... Yet. Anyone tackled clearing out rust like this? If so, the easiest and least difficult way for this newbie?

@Flivver250 thanks for the suggestion on parting out. It may eventually come to that but for now I'm good with selling it or keeping it either way

Thanks for the well-wishes @bromel & @JEEPCJTJ. It wasn't an easy decision and a sale is not a given. I'm ok with that. If it sells then great. If not, I still have my TJ. Either way is good as far as I see it. If it doesn't sell then maybe I will eventually address the rust. That remains to be...

Ok, so after reading everyone's posts and giving it much thought, I have decided to sell the Wrangler. I don't really want to but I've already put my upgrade budget into it just to get it back to operational standard: Water pump Manifold exhaust gasket Shocks & steering stabilizer New rotors...

Ah ok really... I didn't do that. Maybe I can redo it tomorrow. It's dark and cold... ha I think I fixed the video not showing

Ok guys, I was out of pocket for the weekend and could get to all your replies... Thanks for the information provided both positive and negative as it is much as I expected... You ask 20 people a question and you can get 20 different answers. :) On 1 side we have the doom & gloomers who say...

I agree... It will be a long road ahead if I decide to try to fix this. I'm not sure if I can but if there is some hope (as in NOT finding frame rot behind the skid plate ) I'll just take it a little at a time. The advantage I have is that it is not my main driver so I can let it sit until I get...

Also, I understand what you mean by not wanting to discourage with what you said. It's all good. That's why I came here. If I feel I can fix it, I will otherwise I'm gonna have to move on from it.

See the ball peen test video and posted later in this thread and can offer your opinions on it as well

I can't argue with your % certainty... By "the center section of the frame and the body" are you referring to the part of the frame under the skid mentioned in previous posts? We most likely will find this out because I will be removing that skid to look at the frame. "You'll spend upwards of...
