    Fuel pump location

    I ran into issues and think I determined that the fuel pump needs to be changed. Jeep is an '06. Is there any tutorials or instructions that anyone knows of so I can replace it myself? Thanks

    P0443 and high idle

    06tj automatic. Got the famous P0443 code and after I drive for any amount of distance, put the Jeep into park, the engine revs over 1000rpms. Am I wrong in thinking that the two shouldn't be connected in any way or am I missing something?

    Sagging tail gate

    I got too much weight with the steel rim and tire it's making my tailgate sag. Also noticing it vibrates going over bumps. What's something like this be an ideal fix if I don't have the budget for a swing out tire carrier? My thinking is the stock hinges are not strong enough on my 06. Any...

    Don't change trans fluid?

    Had my mechanic tell me not to change my trans fluid in my 06 jeep with an automatic transmission because it's old trans fluid and a new trans-fluid most likely hurt the transmission. Has anyone ever heard this before? I will admit the trans fluid is past due. But it doesn't look or smell...

    jackstands

    Can anyone recommend decent jack stands that will work with a lifted jeep that won't break the bank? All the ones I have and finding are maxed out around 16"-17". Looking to get something taller.

    Looking for a set of good LED taillights that aren't too pricey

    Can anyone recommend a "good" pair of LED taillights that work and not too pricey? I don't want to do just the bulbs. Tried that and my jeep didn't like them.

    What size Rancho shocks do I need?

    I have +2" rancho shocks and I'm looking to run new +2" springs but i can only find 2.5" that are in stock. Can you still run those springs with rancho 0"-2" shocks? Or am I just dumb and wishful thinking?

    Ideal tires?

    It's sneaking up on me. I am going to need new tires soon. I was wondering what are your guy's thoughts on the Cooper Discoverer AT tires for highways and tails? I'm in Florida so it's mostly mud, sand, or soft dirt on the trails. Is there a better tire for around $200 (or less)a pop?

    Possible deals?

    I work around the block from https://www.morris4x4center.com/ Both my fedex and ups driver both told me today that they are going out of business so they may be having some online sales if anyone is needing anything. Just a FYI heads up type of thing.

    Shock upgrade

    I am looking to upgrade my shocks. Mainly because they are still the original ones in my 06. If i'm pulling a small 5x8 camper should i think about getting better shocks? Beef it up a little bit (or a lot)? Does it even matter for the shocks with towing?
