I need a new set of spark plug sockets. I have some older Craftsman with the rubber inserts I am replacing. I use it not just for my Jeep, but other vehicles and yard equipment. Any suggestions for a good set? Anyone try the Quinn set at Harbor Freight for $70?

Went to replace the Interstate battery in my Acura that I originally purchased from Costo (lasted 4 years, so out of warranty). I noticed they changed their warranty. The warranty is now pro-rated for 36 months. If the battery fails at month 24, they will refund 1/3 of your purchase price...

Odyssey will not honor their warranty anymore. They have turned to crap. After 10 years with a Diehard Platimum (Odyssesy) I purchased another Odyssey 3 years ago from AutoZone. The battery died and won't hold a charge. Battery has been well maintained, topped off as needed with a Ctek...

I need to remove a broken bolt from an aluminum engine block. Hoping some of you may have some ideas. Or, if someone can machine an extraction tool for me, I would be glad to pay. I read on the internet someone else had the same broken bolt as me. They machined a sleeve for the hole and used...

I need a new starter. Rockauto has a Mopar Reman for $47 and no core charge. Labeled as Wholesaler Closeout with only a 30-day warranty. Any experience with Mopar reman? Otherwise, I will just pull mine and take it to a local shop that rebuilds starters and alternators.

I need a new assortment of wire connectors (mostly ring, have a lot of butt connectors).. Redoing all the accessory wiring on my Jeep. Also need connectors to keep in my boat. A lot of junk on Amazon. Does anyone have experience with QUALITY connector assortment kits? Looking at these...

My sound system is "harsh/bright/piercing" and very tiring to listen to. I have been through a lot of the audio threads in this forum and hoping some of you audio experts can point me in the right direction. Even at slow speeds or parked, the audio is tiring to listen to. Here is my installed...

Rant on: I stop into a local Batteries+Bulbs to see if I can buy either an X2(rebranded Northstar) or Odyssey for my LJ. I knew I would likely have to order (but they are on their website). The franchise owner proceeds to berate me about why I would want one of those batteries when their...

Copying a post from a Utah group about recent efforts in Moab regarding UTV. I haven't been wheeling in Moab for a couple of years, but UTVs are sure annoying on other trails.

A short in one of my offroad lights lead me to cleaning up all my auxiliary wiring. I have been through this thread and like this solution. https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/bussmann-auxiliary-fuse-and-relay-module-installation.19796/ Before I buy all the parts to put this together myself...

The outer lip on my power steering pully is broken. Would you live with this or replace it? Seems the belt does not catch at all on the lip (so far). Replacing the pulley means a new pump as I cannot get the pully removed and the lip for removal is now broken cleanly off.

I need to replace my power steering pully. I rented the puller from orilleys. The lip on the edge of the pully broke trying to remove it. I have 180 degrees of lip left. How do I get the pully off now?

I am trying to decide to replace my transmission myself with a remanufacture/rebuilt one (42RLE). Having never pulled a transmission before, is it worth attempting? Anyone regret trying it themselves? How many hours for a first timer? Or, is this one of those things that if you don't have a...

05 LJ Rubicon, 42RLE transmission. Keep getting code P0740. Already did a fluid exchange, new filter and seloniod pack. Seems the torque converter needs replacing. How much did you pay to have the TQ replace and what else was/should be done at the same time? Transmission shop quoted me...

05 LJ Rubicon, Automatic I started with code P0740 that I pulled from a scanner. I took my LJ to a reputable transmission shop for further diagnosis. They came back with additional codes P0218 and P1775. They suggested replacing the solenoid, changing the fluid and then see how things are...

Would you buy an Odyssey or X2Power or Northstar battery online? If so, how would you ever warranty the battery if needed? I set out to replace the battery in my 05 LJ (9 years on the Diehard Platinum P4). The only real battery store in Utah is Batteries+Bulbs. They know less than the car...
