Hi All, I’m reconditioning a frame for my TJ and I think it’s ready for paint. The weather looks good this weekend so I’m hoping I can get it sprayed. I don’t have a way to flip it mid spray so I’m thinking about hanging it from the garage ceiling. Anyone have any suggestions on how to access...

The upper bushing on my passenger side rear shock is getting worn and starting to rattle. What would cause a bushing on one shock to go bad twice in about 9 months?

I replaced the rear glass on my TJ Hardtop. Now when closed there is a 1/4" gap on drivers side vertical towards the bottom. I can get it to close if I hold the glass shut when I close the tailgate but it doesn't stay. Is there a way to adjust this so it closes and stays closed?

I am in the middle of replacing my heater core. 2000 Sahara 4.0 with AC. I ordered a new core from Rockauto and it does not fit. The best way I can describe it is, after the first bend leaving the main core body the tubing is too long. You can see that they are different in the attached...

I am adding a Sprintex Supercharger to my 2000 TJ 4.0. I’ll be upgrading to bigger injectors and adding a Snow Methanol injection setup at the same time. I’m wondering if I can just run it on the stock ECU tune or will it require tuning. From everything I’ve read both Split Second and HpTuners...

I’m getting parts together to rebuild my 4.0 as a “modified poor man’s stroker” 4.6. I also plan to install a Sprintex supercharger that I have. I’ve read many threads about cooling system upgrades and I understand that there is no benefit to upgrading the oem system for a stock 4.0, but What...

I’ve read a bunch of posts on this subject but can’t seem to find anyone who had this exact same issue. 2000 TJ with air. New blower motor and resistor. The fan barely blows when the switch is set to high. It does seem to get lower as I lower the switch but it’s hard to tell because it starts...

Hi All, I have a 2000 Sahara 4.0/32RH with a Dana 35 rear axle. The Jeep has a 2.5" skyjacker lift and adjustable control arms in the rear. Recently I've been trying to chase down and eliminate some rattles. Yesterday I was under the jeep and noticed that I can rotate the wheels slightly...

I need to replace the lower bushings on my rear shocks. I have skyjacker 7000 Hydro series shocks and I’m not sure which are the correct bushings. I want to avoid skyjacker bushings because they seem to disintegrate. Can anyone help with the correct bushing?

I'm installing a new ring and pinion and Powertrax LSD in my rear differential (Dana 35). I made some mock up bearings to get it setup correctly. I have a good gear pattern and I'm ready to do my final assembly. I don't have a shop press so if I'm going to press the bearings on I will either...

Hi All, I'm working on installing a new Ring and Pinion and Powertrax LSD carrier in my Dana 35 axle. I think I'm getting in the neighborhood and wanted to get some input from the gear experts. Pictures of my pattern below. Please give me suggestions to perfect it. Updated pics -

I am getting a burnt wire or plastic type spell when I use the AC in my TJ. It seems to be coming from the vents, but it's pretty tough to tell. I smelled this early in the spring and assumed it was coming from the new receiver or sub amp that i put in as it kind of smells like new electronics...

Good Morning, I have a 2000 TJ Sahara with the 4.0, 32RH transmission, Dana 30/35 and 3.07 gear ratio. I have added 33" tires and I want to regear to 4.10, and add a LSD in the rear at the same time. This jeep will be used on road 99% of the time and the reason for the LSD is to improve...

Are there any St. Louis area jeepers out there that can recommend a transmission shop. I'm thinking that mine needs a complete rebuild and I would like to find a reputable shop.

I found this connector loose on the passenger side of the engine compartment near the oil filter. It looks like a 2 pin connector, but there is only one wire going to it. It's hard to tell but the wire looks predominantly green and possibly has a white tracer. Can anyone tell me what this is...

Sorry this post is a bit long but I'm going to try to provide as much detail as possible. 2000 Sahara 4.0 Automatic The Jeep is new to me but I installed an ATK/Vege Reman 4.0 engine. Now has less than 200 miles. The jeep ran well initially. I took it in to a local tire dealer/mechanic to have...

When I pulled the engine out of my TJ I pulled the Transmission dipstick out with it, and I need a bit of guidance to get it back together. I drawing that I found just showed the tube and an o-ring, but the research that I've done also says that there should be a grommet like the one shown...

Hi all. I'm a newbie who's been lurking for a while. I'm swapping an ATK engine into a 2000 wrangler and I wasn't able to get the stud shown below out without damage so I need to replace it, but I can't find a part # or suitable replacement. This stud holds the dipstick bracket in place and...
