Hey guys. My '03 Rubicon has developed a pretty nice leak from the RMS. I have narrowed it down to this and not the valve cover. Valve cover was also replaced less than 2 years ago... I purchased all the parts and was actually going to tackle it this past weekend but once I climbed under the...

Hahaha I literally just finished a major paint job on the undercarriage last weekend and today was the first day I drove it again. It did turn out pretty freaking good though.

Hey guys, Noticed a fairly large puddle and consistent drop of water coming from the frame area on my TJ today. I started snooping around for what it could be. I thought it may have just beens some rain from the night before that was draining out but I had been driving for over an hour so I...

Hey guys, Yesterday we took the Jeep out for the first long ride since we’ve had it. Before then it had been relatively short 10 to 20 minute trips . After driving around yesterday for about 1 1/2 hours I noticed something after trying to accelerate from a red light. The engine seemed to...

2 inch HD OME with 33’s (32.8 to be exact) No issues with rubbing they do look a little smooshed into the wheel well. Planning on a BL next to hopefully fix that

Apologies for what may be a stupid question, but is this where I should place my support? Look like I'll have to get the tranny skid out of the way first.

They are the factory Rubicon wheels. 16x8 "MOAB2". Tires are brand new but they ride great so cant tell of any uneven wear.

Thats a great suggestion about the coat hanger! Did not think of that and honestly struggled trying to keep the nozzle in the middle of the frame. I taped off most of the holes snd then reopened them when I needed access in that part of the frame. Very surprised you needed 8 cans! I used 4...

Thanks! Nope, no tire rub with only the 2" OME HD lift. I do think the tires look a little squished in there, especially the rear, so I'm planning on a 1" BL soon.

From what I understand the Eastwoods acts as a sort of “encapsulator” for the present rust. Converter should only be used on HEAVY rust and not clean/bare surfaces. I suppose if the inside of your frame was 100% rusted to crap the converter would be okay.

Yes, I'm also planning on going over everything (especially inside the frame) with some type of lubricant. Fluid Film should do the trick here, correct? Is there some other product that you would recommend. Iv'e heard of the 3M Cavity Wax product as well it just seems hard to find.

Yeah, it's really not in bad shape at all - just doing some preventative cleaning. There is some surface rust in between where the skid plate and frame used to meet that I want to clean up and re-paint. The previous owner also added a tcase drop kit when he put on the 2 inch OME lift which...

So, I was getting ready to remove the skid plate in preparation for grinding down some rust and re-painting, but wanted to be sure I'm following the proper procedure. I analyzed everything for about 20 minutes before removing any bolts and have some questions... From what I have read, it...

Just finished another step of my frame cleanup and was blown away with how much rust I flushed out of the frame. I was able to get my hand on a Sewer Jetter and let me tell you, this thing was a game changer for breaking up the loose rust on the walls and flushing it out. I spent about 1.5...

Interestingly enough I just bought an 03 Rubicon this weekend that has the same OME 2" HD lift. I think the 2" lift with heavy duty springs gets you closer to 2.5 inches if you're not carrying a bunch of extra weight... He also added the tcase drop which from what I've heard probably wasn't...

Nice. Havent heard about this yet or seen anyone adding this product to the inside of the frame besides you. Will do!

Thanks! I’ve definitely read a lot about fluid film and will add that to my preventative rust procedure as well! One other question I had was about removing my tcase skid plate. It is my understanding that the skid plate actually bears some of the weight from the transfer case, correct? So...

Hi guys, So, I've had my '03 TJ for a coupe days now and couldn't be happier with my purchase. I was the one who posted last week if I was making the right decision to buy this. Upon my initial inspection the frame was 99% rust free on the outside. It wasn't until I got it home and...

It’s official. She’s all mine!

Just confirmed with the seller that I’m picking the Jeep up tomorrow:D. Will report back once its parked in MY driveway. Thanks again to everyone for not talking me down off this bridge.
