    Interior Door Latch

    Make sure you also lube the catch on the side of the door. The only real mechanism in that whole setup is the door handle and the door catch. Everything else is purely mechanical operating by push/pull rods. However, if one of the rods is not seated correctly or latched in place backwards, they...

    Interior Door Latch

    You'll have to pull the door panel and then peel back the semi clear plastic to get to anything. Try lubing everything before you go past that point.

    Let's see your reverse lights (jackass blinders)

    I added channel to a custom rear bumper and mounted led lights into the channel. The channel keeps them protected from debris from trails and such.

    Jeep Wrangler TJ LED Headlight Upgrade Options

    I did a little experiment and swapped in a set of JK headlights and upgraded the bulbs with SYLVANIA H13 SilverStar zXe High Performance Halogen. Now, while I'll admit they probably don't compare to trucklites, however they are incredibly better than stock. They are a little brighter, but the...

    How do you mount a 32" wheel to a tj spare tire mount

    You need an extension. But, I don't recommend doing that. It's a lot of additional weight on the tail gate. Here is a link.....http://www.quadratec.com/products/22202_4000.htm?gclid=CjwKEAiAmo_CBRC9qbGQssjqi28SJABYTgZxfz2aTGueJ3NMXLBehR7AaGYE4hsKjeJvAN6BcVRlDBoCue3w_wcB

    Help me decide what to do !

    I agree with Chris. A lot of depends on just how much work you want to put in it. Oil leaks are generally pretty easy to fix (except the rear main, this one just sucks). As long as nothing is rusted through, clean up the rust and put some rust inhibitor on it. Then I would do the lift and such.

    Radio problem

    Could be the internal amp inside the radio. I would try swapping a speaker with a new or known good one first to rule those out. Then I would try swapping the head unit.

    Painting my fenders?

    Yes, wet sand with a high grit to knock down the rough texture from spraying. Just a light sanding though, don't over do it. Then rinse and let dry. After that, apply paint. I would 3 coats of paint, lightly wet sand in between each coat.

    How do you like the Black and Tan color? I am debating on this one or just the straight tan color.

    Input on seat covers

    Thanks! eBay was the cheapest I found also. I just wanted to make sure they weren't cheaper somewhere else. Weird, because if you go to Iggee's website they are $400 for a set.

    Input on seat covers

    Maybe you just lucked out and got a quality set. Mine are about 2 years old and are faded and coming apart. They were put on by the PO, so I don't know what brand they are.
