    Has anyone out there done the R2.8 conversion in their TJ?

    23.5 years (all but 2 as an aviator), I used to ask the Infantry guys at Ft. Benning if they knew why there are so many pockets on a flight suit? Shoulder shrug. It's to put all my flight pay in. Then walk away with a shit-eating grin. Any time they would get irritated, I'd remind them that...

    Bedhed tweaks a CJ Scrambler

    Amazing work! Not too many "Craftsmen" still out there. To many folks just have the skills to order from a catalog and bolt on bits and bobs. Hopefully you have someone to pass on your skills to.

    Looking for ideas and suggestions on 2006 TJ Rubicon upgrades

    I have the OME kit on my 05 LJ. I really like the ride quality. I agree with the tummy tuck, although I haven't done it myself yet. I just seems like too much for me to get into right now. It's also my daily driver. I'm running 33s with 4.88s and a 6 speed. Zero vibrations ad plenty of...

    Jerking / Bucking Before Shift

    I must be doing it wrong, or I don't have any codes. I turn my 05 LJ from OFF to ON three times, each time letting the odometer come up. On the third time, the odometer just stays there. Maybe I'm lucky and don't have any codes. I just figured there would be some random one stored in there.

    That One Modification — Was It Worth the Time and Expense?

    Tuffy security box that takes up all the extra space behind the seat up to the top of the tailgate. It's nice to have a big lockable storage bin, but I loose a lot of what makes the LJ great. The PO installed it, and I'm thinking hard about removing it. It's nice to have some lockable storage...

    Not Getting The Color Jeep You Wanted

    I've always been a fan of bright colors on vehicles. I had a CJ5 that I repainted Mopar Sub-Lime, my F150 is Lightning Blue, my Mustang is Grabber Blue. So I guess Impact Orange was my obvious choice. I do dig the Electric-Lime Green, but couldn't find one that I liked. I'm happy with the orange...

    Upcoming Winch Sales?

    Greetings all, After that awesome sale on the Bestop bumpers and oversized tire carrier, I'm on the look out for a winch sale. I always try to obey the first law of of Jeep mods, "never pay full price." I don't know if there are any upcoming sales where I might be able to score a good deal...

    JeepRehab '06 LJ Bright Silver Build Thread

    I have the exact same lift, and wheels on my 2005. I think it's the best looking set up you can get without going to 35s. As fare as a rear tire carrier goes, Bestop is having a great sale on their oversized tire carrier. I'd recommend checking to see if they have any left. Normally $300 on sale...

    Bestop Tire Carrier Heavily Discounted

    I need some Grade 8 help. I'm upgrading all the supplied bolts with Grade 8 before I even get started. I was able to get everything except the 1/2 x 20 x 7". Where were you guys able to get yours? I found some on line, but I don't want to pay $10 in shipping for a $4.30 bolt! Can someone...

    Bestop Tire Carrier Heavily Discounted

    Still says they are on back order, but I placed an order anyway. We'll see what happens. $300ish for a rear bumper and tire carrier is pretty sweet.

    Average cost of ownership for TJs?

    It may be blasphemy, but, have you considered an Cherokee (also known as an XJ)? They are very family friendly, fairly capable off road, great 4.0 engine, lots of aftermarket support, and relatively inexpensive to purchase compared to a TJ. Also because there isn't a frame, it's easier get salt...
