Wow, it's been a while since I've even visited the forum. That probably means that things were going well with my jeep! I have three general questions about my 97' 5 speed 4 cylinder TJ. First of all, if this is a weird way to ask questions, I can make three different posts if that makes more...

My radiator cracked today. I've seen a hundred different brands ranging from $70-$800. I need some help making the right choice. I have a 97', 2.5l, 5spd manual if that makes any difference. As always, any help would be greatly appreciated!

For some reason my heater has been going haywire for about a month now. In town it will blow hot for about 2-3 minutes, and then it will change to blowing cold air for 2-3 minutes. It will alternate like this until I hit higher speeds. At highway speeds (70 -75 mph) it will alternate temperature...

This 6x6 JK hurts my eyes to look at, but it’s an interesting video nonetheless.

Yes, it’s the middle of winter right now, but I’m trying to prepare for summer. My plan is to have two separate versions of my Jeep. In the winter, I put on the hard top and take out the rear seat. Pretty simple. Last summer I ran a soft top, but I had zippers break left and right (which...

For anybody that doesn’t know, Australia is suffering some massive fires right now and it’s devastating to both the people that live there, and the animals. For anybody that is visiting or lives in Australia, I hope you all stay safe. Here’s an article that really emphasizes the destruction of...

I haven’t made any mistakes yet, but I haven’t done anything to my Jeep yet either. Let’s hear your biggest mistakes when modding your Jeep so nobody else makes the same mistake.

This is a bit of a rant, and I really hope I explain it in a way that makes sense, either way, here we go. If you’ve ever visited a Costco, I’m almost sure you’ve noticed the gas station, and the craziness that goes on there. For people that want cheap gas really bad it makes sense, but you have...

For the last few days it’s been subzero temps here and my Jeep is complaining a little bit. Two days ago, I had to park outside for the night because the garage was being organized a bit better for winter. The next morning when I tried to start it, the clutch didn’t really want to move. It...

Okay, hate might of been a strong word to use, but it gets my point across. As most of you have probably already figured out, I have a 97’ with the little 4 cylinder under the hood. I have seen a lot of people saying that it is slow, and sluggish. I haven’t really experienced any of these...

The seatbelt in the front on the passenger side is having a hard time retracting. When someone gets out I have to kind of feed the seatbelt back, instead of it retracting on it’s own. I usually don’t drive people around, so I’ve never really worried about it. Yesterday I drove a friend home and...

A pretty big winter storm is going to pass through a large portion of the U.S. before thanksgiving. Here in Minnesota we’re expecting over 12 inches, and it’s going to be the first permanent snow this year. Airports are expecting huge delays to make that thanksgiving travel headache a borderline...

Wether you like it or not, the Christmas season is fast approaching. What part(s) for your Jeep would be on your wishlist? For me, it would be a winch. I need something that ups the appearance and effectiveness of my Jeep.

Okay, the title of this thread sounds a little demanding, I know. I’ll start out by saying that I love this forum. I’ve seen multiple other Jeep and TJ related forums but this one is by far the best one I’ve come across. It’s much more clear and user friendly than the others. The same goes for...

I was listening to some music in the Jeep when I think I turned the radio up a little too loud because a blew a speaker. Now the left speaker is making this popping sound that sounds more like applause or popcorn. I don’t have a sound bar so now it really just sounds terrible. Now it’s time to...

Be careful out there guys! I’m removing this thing tonight!

I’m just gonna cut right to the chase. I locked myself out of the Jeep yesterday. I went into target and I didn’t find what I was looking for. When I came back out I tried to open the doors without my key. It was locked, so I reached into my pocket to grab my keys and to my surprise, they were...

For those of you that don’t know what you’re looking at, this is a peel p50. It is the smallest production car in the world. They aren’t made anymore, in fact, they’re quite rare. However, there is a company in the U.K. that makes replicas of these little guys. I’d love to have one, but $10,000...

Well, it’s finally snowing in Minnesota! Since it’s my first winter with the Jeep I don’t really know how to use it properly. Today I wasn’t getting any traction with just rear wheel drive, and taking the back seats out didn’t help to put any weight back there. I switched to 4-Hi within the...

This is a weird one, but I’ll do my best to explain. When I have the heat on, and I stop at a light or a sign, it shuts off. When I start to move again, it turns back on. It gradually turns off, not suddenly. When I start moving again, it gradually turns back on. It doesn’t matter what...
