    Is there supposed to be a seal here?

    I recently traded hardtops with someone and have been getting a bad leak at the corner where the hardtop meets the channel by the door. Is there supposed to be a seal here?

    What hardware do you keep in your garage?

    I’ve been reorganizing my workspace and I have a helluva collection of screws, nails, etc for hardware. One thing I don’t have much of is nuts and bolts. I like having stuff on hand so, what common sizes of hardware do you guys keep in your garage? It doesn’t have to be Jeep specific

    Steering wheel bump (with no noise)

    I'm getting a bump in the steering wheel while turning and can't figure out what is causing it. Originally I thought it was a bad track bar bushing but it's still doing it after being replaced. It's not audible (at least for my old ears) but I can definitely feel it in the steering wheel. Any...

    Front track bar advice

    A little background for reference. When I bought this TJ back it had a worn out BDS 3” so I replaced it with a mild 2” spring lift. It has an adjustable front track bar with a bracket that I don’t recognize. Now that the track bar upper bushing is shot, would you recommend trying to find a...

    Minimalist rear bumper with hitch

    I saw a thread on this previously but cannot for the life of me find it. I'm looking for a minimalist rear bumper with integrated hitch. By minimalist I mean as stubby as possible. It'll be used for a hitch rack or bike rack, no towing. Any recommendations?

    Rear sway bar endlink bushings/bolts

    I heard the all too familiar noise in the rear of a bad sway bar bushing. Crawled underneath and yep, the endlink does move back and forth. The weird thing is, the bushing (as far as I can tell) looks just fine. It’s almost as if the bolt loosened, which I know is impossible because it’s rusted...

    Aftermarket center console options

    I currently have an ammo can console but am looking for a more factory look. Are there any options other than the Tuffy or the stock console? The stock ones cost almost as much as the Tuffy now

    Spice vs black soft tops on dark green

    I'm in the market for a new soft top (going the Supertop NX route) but of course bestop no longer makes the Khaki soft top that I currently have and love. Is the Spice version as light as it appears in pictures? I cannot seem to decide which color to get for my Sahara.

    Hitch rack and bike storage suggestions

    I have a feeling I'm asking too much of my TJ lol We've been using my TJ as our "beach trip" vehicle. One wife, one kiddo, a dog, and way too many snacks are filling the cab completely. I've been using a hitch rack for luggage, cooler, beach chairs etc. The thing is, we'd really like to bring...

    Rear upper shocks, are these aftermarket brackets?

    I was going to replace my shocks and when I went to look at the rear uppers, they appear to have brackets installed by the previous owner. Anybody recognize these? My new shocks have a different mount

    Anyone know the various bolt sizes from the undercarriage?

    I've recently been going through the undercarriage and grinding, cleaning, replacing, and painting anything that's gotten rusty. The first area I did was the transfer case skid and I replaced the rusted out bolts with new ones (and anti-sieze!). Is there a list anyone knows of with the various...

    Any consensus on a steering box replacement?

    I've known for a while its been needing to be replaced and now is finally the time. The Jeep isnt wheeled anymore. Its a beach trip only ride so PSC is overkill. From what I've been reading the Cardone is a POS. Any recommendations? From what I've read it appears to be between: Napa...

    Stupid question time, rear seat belts pushing through?

    I know this is a dumb question with an obvious solution that for some reason just isn't presenting itself to me. My daughter has been having a helluva time buckling the back seat belt. Whenever she goes to push it into the latch, the latch pushes back and out the back of the seat (between the...
