    Must be the high gas prices changing those angry eyes to sad eyes. 😄

    Improved rear seat retainer strap

    I came across a post about a rear seat retainer strap that came with the TJ to keep the rear seat from falling down when it was in the upright folded position. https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/rear-seat-retainer-strap-is-so-worthless-that-it-is-rare.50383/ Since I bought my TJ used, it...

    Alternator pulley squealing

    Had a squealing noise coming from the front of the engine and figured it was the tensioner or idler pulley. After spraying WD40 around, I found out its the alternator pulley. Can I replace the pulley bearing myself or do I need a new alternator? Or have it rebuilt? Looks like new alternators...

    Custom rear view mirror bracket

    One thing I have always hated about the TJ is the rear view mirror seems to be mounted way too low. It's like it's right in my eyeline and I'm always moving my head to look around it at intersections. I looked to see if a company made a mounting bracket that possibly attached in place of the...

    Need help finding coolant leak

    I found a small puddle of coolant under my jeep yesterday about the size of a silver dollar. It was right under where the transmission meets the motor. Looking underneath I saw a small droplet of coolant hanging from the lowest bolt on the tranny. It looks like it came from where the tranny...

    Restored my interior door panels

    When I got my jeep last year, the interior was in excellent condition minus a couple things but what bugged me the most was the fading on top of the door panels. Seems like this effects most jeeps so I researched how to fix it. Most recommend painting but I didn't want to go through the hassle...

    Restored my hardtop

    I read on here about using penetrol to restore the paint on your hardtop so I picked up a can at Lowes for under $11.00 The day before I used the penetrol, I used warm water and several magic erasers to clean the hardtop. I paid special attention to the rubber around the side windows since...

    Help finding chrome amber turn signal bulbs

    Since my jeep is white, I like everything else to be blacked out which is why I chose the black grill inserts, blacked out LED headlights, black bezels, blacked out fog lights, smoked turn signals and side markers. What I don't like is how you can see orange from the amber turn signal bulbs when...

    Custom shifter levers for automatic transmission and transfer case

    I had seen several people who had purchased the custom transfer case shifter lever off Ebay and decided I liked the look of it. After finding out the guy no longer made them I figured I would build one myself. I picked up a piece of solid rod from Tractor Supply, turned the end down in the lathe...

    Need help with torque specs

    I just installed a transfer case drop kit and replaced all 6 nutserts. I found the torque specs for the 6 1/2" skid plate bolts (55 ft lbs) and subtracted 20% for using anti-seize which brought it to 44 ft lbs so I rounded it to an even 45 ft lbs. Now I'm laying under the jeep and I need to...

    Bad oil pressure sending unit?

    I have a 2000 jeep with 4.0 and noticed the other day that my oil pressure gauge was pegged at 80 and never moved regardless of rpms. It usually sits around 40 and fluctuates a little when driving or at idle when at a red light. When I turn the key on but dont crank the engine, the gauge moves...

    Installing auxiliary lights using factory fog light switch

    I'm thinking about purchasing this EAG bumper and I was wondering if I can hook the two round LED fog lights and the middle LED light bar up to the factory fog light switch of my 2000 jeep sahara. The two round LED lights are 12w each and the LED light bar is 120w. I know very little about...
