    Factory radio value - is this thing worth keeping?

    It's yours! Only really looking to have shipping covered, I just want it gone. Not sure how to figure out if it works, but it did the last time it was in the Jeep.

    Viair 88p on ABS tray - have a couple questions

    I've kept a Viair 88p in my trunk for years (along with a bunch of other stuff) but am trying to free up space and have seen that some put them on the ABS tray. I finagled it in there between the fender and the brake booster yesterday to make sure it'd fit. It does, at somewhat of an angle. But...

    Factory radio value - is this thing worth keeping?

    I'm pleasantly shocked at all the responses here - appreciate you all! I've listed it on marketplace and may throw it up on ebay for a bit just to see what happens. Thing is, I'm moving soon and need to liquidate. It may still end up in the trash. But can't hurt to try and make a few bucks in...

    Factory radio value - is this thing worth keeping?

    I hoard shit too much. Still have the factory head unit out of my old 2000. Don't even have the Jeep anymore. I figured somebody somewhere along the line might want it and I can make fifty bucks. But the space it's taking up and the work to sell it is starting to become more valuable. Maybe...

    Adding a front spacer - what am I up against?

    I had the Jeep lifted at the end of last summer. Details below (not pictured are adjustable front trackbar and other required hardware). It's a small lift, running 31's. I had them add .75 spacers in front that I had leftover from a previous jeep. Now that things have settled, and despite...

    Tuffy glovebox just installed - my takeaways

    Same here, I love it. Too bad I just ordered a new lock to key the glove box alike to my other stuff. Could've thrown that on the order. I also have a different key for the gas cap, one for the hood lock, one for the disklok on the steering wheel, and one for the clutch shackle (the thing is...

    Tuffy glovebox just installed - my takeaways

    I was definitely prepared for the worst, as I've heard a number of comments/reviews like this. Agree with the comment above that your PO may have botched the install. All I had to do was bend the catch a little to make the right side of the door seat to the frame a little better.

    Tuffy glovebox just installed - my takeaways

    I grabbed the Tuffy glovebox on sale on Amazon, 170 down from the usual 200. Just finished installing. It went mostly smoothly, but I did run into some trouble once I got to the step that requires you to drill a second set of holes in the steel glovebox frame behind the lock catch. The...

    Easy way to relocate factory fogs on aftermarket bumper?

    I have an aftermarket bumper that lacks the second set of holes for the factory fogs that the OEM bumper has. I planned on removing the vertical bolt on the light brackets and running a bumper bolt through it, letting the light share a mounting point with the bumper. But after a little forum...

    2nd storage post in 24 hours (rear cargo storage WITH seat?)

    Forgive me. Yesterday I posted seeking suggestions for storage under the rear seat. Today I am seeking suggestions for when I have the rear seat flipped forward. I run the Tuffy trunk enclosure. And am planning on getting their speaker lockbox armrest things that mount over the rear wheel wells...

    Under rear seat storage - any ideas?

    in looking to optimize every inch of the vehicle (and prioritize out-of-sight options), I'm trying to find something to add storage under the rear seat. I do leave the rear seat in always, so removal isn't an option. I just want something slim and secure to store some stuff that right now...

    Anyone do a front half console delete?

    I am considering a Tuffy half console for my '97. https://tuffyproducts.com/products/jeep-series-ii-rear-half-center-security-console-jeep-1997-2006-wrangler-tj/?sku=044-01 The full console is too expensive, and for other reasons I am less interested in the factory console insert version, so...

    Need secure rear passenger area storage solution WITH seat and Tuffy trunk installed.

    So I run one of these behind the rear seat to make it a lockable compartment. Mostly for summer usage, as I've got the soft top on 9 months out of the year. https://tuffyproducts.com/products/jeep-standard-cargo-area-security-enclosure-jeep-1997-2006-wrangler-tj/?sku=296-01 I'm trying to come...

    What can I expect to pay to have my header replaced?

    '97 Sahara. Had it in for a lift last week (following a ton of help on this forum deciding what I wanted a few years back. Finally got around to it) and they found that the header was cracked. Browsed a few threads and it sounds like rather than an OEM manifold, one of the $100 amazon headers...

    Any prep needed for Fluid Film?

    A shop near me in central PA recently began offering fluid film service. I believe it's something like $250. My understanding is that it penetrates existing rust and halts its progression. But does not remove it. I have a little surface rust underneath. Frame is sound. Should I bother trying to...

    Straightening a building stud with a jeep — dumb?

    My father is restoring a cabin that he got for dirt cheap ... because a tree fell through the back wall and roof. The tree also cracked one of the framing studs of an outer wall (sorry if that's the wrong term, i'm not sure) and he needs to pull it square so he can reinforce it and begin...

    Cost to repaint Sahara fender?

    yeah I'll probably do this just to have some justification for the number I throw them. TBH if I end up having to pay out of pocket I probably won't bother, but if they'll just stack it on my bill under my existing claim or let me throw them some $ on the side, then sure.

    Cost to repaint Sahara fender?

    yeah that sounds about right. If i were to even bother dealing with it I'm not sure I'd want to drop the cash to have it fully repainted. It's only gonna get fucked up again. a detail and move on with it, sure

    Cost to repaint Sahara fender?

    not damaged, just the cracked and scuffed paint. I assumed they weren't made anymore but wasn't sure if there's a place out there that has NOS parts etc. Guess painting it or just getting over it is the move.
