    Squeaky Clutch

    Any ideas on this noise? The loudest noise is when i let the clutch pedal out. Only does it when driven a while. Doesn't seem to effect the shifting. https://youtube.com/shorts/MeNCVLOG_vE?feature=share

    Squealing noise

    So my jeep has yet another noise. Seems to be front end. Did it with clutch in and out. Also in 4wd. Didn't change anything. Definitely annoying because this Jeep may be the most unreliable vehicle ever. And I don't beat it up either. Any thoughts? Im praying its just a dust shield or something...

    TJ Tire Pressure

    Ok so I recently mounted 33x12.5r15s on my Jeep. My question is what tire pressure do I run? I currently have 26 psi in it, but it doesn't seem that all of the tread comes in contact with the road. I will attach pictures of what I mean. Dont you want all of the tread to come in contact with the...

    Which type of 231 transfer case do I have?

    Which type of 231 transfer case do I have? Pretty sure its a 23 spline short shaft but not 100%. I have a 2001 Jeep 4.0 NV3550.

    Which Rancho shocks do I need for a 3-3.5” lift?

    I have decided that I would enjoy new shocks for my Jeep. I am tired of my spine nearly shooting through the roof. Which rancho shocks would I get for a 3-3.5 inch lift and can you send a link? Thanks

    NV3550 noise upon acceleration

    Anyone have thoughts on this noise? I only notice it in first and second. Seems to go away if I push in the clutch, even if I push in the clutch and hold engine rpm. It may get quiter as it warms up but idk. Probably gonna replace the trans mount at some point even if it's not bad. Everything...

    How much lift do I have?

    So I am trying to choose tire size and realized I've never actually measure my total lift. I thought I had a 3in lift kit (according to PO) but I went out and measured. It seems it is more like a 3.5in lift kit to me. I will attach some pics. What do you yall think? Maybe I measured wrong. And...

    32 vs 33 tires

    So my Jeep is in need of new tires. It has a 3 inch lift and currently has 31s. I believe that 4.56 gearing (if that calculator is correct). I know the recommended lift is 4 inches. I don't do much offroading and when I do its not very intense. Plus I flexed my jeep yesterday and it doesn't flex...

    Cooling System Pressure

    What pressure should my cooling system be able to hold? I think its 18 but am not 100% sure on that. Yep, I've got another coolant leak. Pretty sure its radiator

    Highway vibration (yep, another one)

    My 01 TJ has developed a fairly bad vibration at and above 65 mph. It is kinda of a rhythmic vibration. Comes for a few seconds, then fades. I've heard removing the front driveshaft and driving it may help diagnose it. My questions are: Could it be upper ball joints? The inspection station said...

    Stuck Windshield Hinge Bolts

    Any advice on getting this awful bolts out? Some have come loose but others want to strip out. I want to take the hinge off to clean up some rust that has formed under the hinge, causing rust stains on my paint. Any help? Oh how I love working on my rusty Jeep...

    Smell going uphill

    So when I go up a hill in my Jeep, it gives off a rotten egg type smell. My Jeep recently had a bad catalytic converter code. Tried spark plugs first. Ended up changing all the cats (2001 Jeep). The smell is still there at times and I'm stumped. It also gets a little warm going up larger hills...

    Should a 4.0 normally rev to 1500 RPM on start-up?

    Random question. Typically, when u start an engine, doesn't it normally rev to 1500 rpm and then drop to normal idle? Mine only revs up to 1250 when I start it in the morning. Then if I start it up when the engine is warm, it only revs to 1000. All my friends 4.0's will always rev to 1500. Is...

    Anyone have pictures of TJs with 3" lift and 32s?

    Anyone have pictures of a TJ with a 3in lift and 32s? I know 33s are a bit difficult to fit with offroading but anyone know if 32s work? I currently have a 3in lift with 31s and want a slightly larger tire.

    4.0 Burns a Little Oil

    Is it normal for the 4.0 to burn a little oil? Its not smoking and it always stays in the safe zone before the next oil change, just wondering if a little is normal. I haven't noticed any leaks on the ground but it is a little wet by the RMS. The engine has 166,700 miles. As a side note, I think...

    Ground Strap

    Just wondering what this ground strap controls and where it goes? It is the one that attaches to the rear head bolt. It is on the rear head bolt but the other end has been ripped off or something. Thanks

    4.0l Revs

    This probably seems like a stupid question but how high of an rpm can the 4.0 handle? I generally shift around 2800-3k rpms but can the 4.0 handle 4.5k every once in a while? Sometimes its just a bit more, well, fun to shift that high. Dont get me wrong, I don't try to kill this engine, just...

    Noisy 4.0

    So I know I have asked this many times on this forum, but I am still dumbfounded by how noisy my 4.0 is in my Jeep. It's only loud in the morning for like 5 mins and then it makes the noise for like 2-3 mins on a warm startup. It's pretty noticeable if you are kinda near the Jeep. It runs fine...

    E-brake light is randomly beeping while driving

    The stupid E Brake light has randomly started beeping when I am driving. I do not think the E brake is stuck cause if I am on even the slightest hill, the jeep will slowly roll forward with no resistance. Is there a sensor or something that may just be out of alignment? Thanks
