The AA part number is listed for 1999-2000. I have found a couple of the AA blanks — will they work on a later ('05-'06) SKIM system, or were they specific to the earlier Jeeps?

I have one of the KeyParts door skins. As has been mentioned, they're only good if you have a rusted 1/2 door with all the hardware, the hinges, and the interior panels intact — because finding those parts will be just about impossible. But it was great for a single door that was bulging out...

Unfortunately they all appear to be re-boxed versions of the exact same Chinese-made unit bearing. Timken, Moog, SKF — even 'Mopar' branded OEM are Chinese. If they have the red poly seal and spots with obvious casting flash, they're all coming off the same assembly line. There does not...

http://www.keypartsonline.com/03-06-half-door-shell-drivers-side/ http://www.keypartsonline.com/97-02-half-door-shell-drivers-side/ I believe the only difference is the size of the hole for the door lock cylinder, since they changed in 2003. Both door shells use the later (post-5/99)...

My wife likes driving with no doors at all, but on the interstate I think the wind noise/buffeting is annoying as all get out. With the half doors on it seems like you just have the window rolled down. And it looks so solid with the half doors on there. I bought white doors and ended up...

I can't speak for all of the options out there, but if your Jeep came from the U.S. it is (probably?) not spec'd for DRLs. The 3 pin headlight harness doesn't get any power until the light switch is turned on, so DRLs won't get power through it. I run these cheap-ish LED/DRL combos I got off...

Bad radiator cap?

I just did this on my ‘05! IIRC the levers should throw about 90 degrees, and this unlocks the plug. Just wiggle them apart gently but firmly. to reattach, plug in firmly and throw the locking levers to cinch them and lock them down.

One year update: The interior panels, ALL hardware and weatherstripping fit up perfectly. Without looking for the factory part sticker you cannot tell which door is the OEM and which is the replacement panel. Recommend 100%

I installed my rear view camera in the trailer hitch — using a blank cover like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TSM7MCA/?tag=wranglerorg-20 Wires easy to route along the harness on the driver side, under the door and up under the dash. You can run the wire up the edge of the...

In some parts of the world cars are required to have a remote adjustment to keep the lights from rising up into the oncoming traffic. So if you have cargo, backseat passengers, etc, you were supposed to adjust your lights down based on how much you were likely to be sagging in the back. The...

That's my guess. Flip the switch and see if the door lights still come on.

The foam backing is easy enough to cut — it's the 'pile' that is like trying to cut a hundred little plastic hairs at the same time. It completely chokes a knife blade, and neither nice scissors nor a set of tin snips could touch it. If you have a big piece of plywood to cut on, you can get...

They make a window kit for TJs. There's tons of writeups on power locks — they're super easy with the way the locking rods run in the TJ doors. https://www.a1electric.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=AEOS&Product_Code=JE12-KSW

Had generic wet carpet smell that would get really bad in the heat. Pressure washing/shampooing the carpet and letting it dry in the sun would help, but never completely got rid of the smell. Febreeze helped too, but it's not a very subtle scent itself — like a janitor's version of Axe Body...

Just finished Bedrug, Bartacs and WeatherTechs in our '05 LJR this morning. Looks like a new car! Interior is Agate so everything is shades of charcoal and black. That Bedrug is a PIA to cut. Had a brand-new utility knife and it was like cutting it with a boiled hot dog. Ended up putting my...

I had a problem with my T-stat housing weeping on my GW (completely different engine I know). It was just imperfections in the aluminum T-stat housing. I ended up using the Permatex water pump sealer and likewise put the thinnest smear on both sides of the Fel-Pro T-stat housing gasket...

I used some of the stainless constant torque lined clamps on my Wagoneer a few years back, and they've been great. They don't bind or break like the cheap worm drive clamps do, and they can be torqued down a bit more than the pinch-type clamps. Detroit Diesel uses them on their turbo plumbing...

Parts counter must have assumed the AC superseded the AB — since a lot of time they do. With these part numbers it's definitely not the case. The AB has barbs, the AC has the quick connect fittings. Changeover was for the '05 models.

Just finished changing out the entire cooling system on our '05. From my limited research, the only color HOAT I didn't come across was green. Found red/pink, yellow, and orange. The Zerex G05 I used is a faint yellow color — much closer to clear than actual yellow. x2 on filling with...
