    Best bank to finance TJ

    Just to simply put it. I sold my rubicon last year. HIGHLY regret it. So now I want to buy another one but it seems my 2 local banks are not connected with the prices of tjs nowadays. Anyone got a recommendation for a good bank or credit union? Specifically in the west TN and middle TN area.

    Random misfire in mornings

    Any suggestions on replacement ball joints and wheel hubs?

    So it's time for new ball joints and some wheel hub assembly. Any suggestions or advice cause I'm certainly not paying 415 for labor to do those at a shop.

    Harsh noise during acceleration

    Id just run it to your gear guy. He probably tell you exactly whats up. But be careful. I took mine to 3 "mechniks" and they all said it was either my tires or brakes.......

    Harsh noise during acceleration

    It turns out my pinion bearing had failed at some point and in turn ruined my gear set. My pinion gear ended up chipping and eating the ring gear up also. 850 dollar rebuild and the noise is gone! I will say it did drive fine for about 2 months before i could get the cash up to have it rebuilt.
