    Oil Pan Bolts and Configuration

    Ok yall. My son has a 1999 with the 4 cylinder and while on deployment (he is a marine) his wife decided to fix the oil leak on his Jeep. She pulled the oil pan and didnt take note which bolts went were and when she put the thing back together it still leaks and the bolts are not all there now...

    Can put a bimini top (sunshade) under my hard top?

    I am wondering if I can put a bimini top (sunshade) under my hardtop? It attaches with either bungee cords of straps and does not have a header. I really like the idea of the sunshade but was thinking I could just leave the sunshade on under the hardtop.

    My new ride

    Thanks! LOL! Yes. I want to get or make some sort of hard top remover. I have a large shop so storage would be a snap. I just need to DIY something to secure top to and engineer some sort of lift. Maybe a hand winch like a boat trailer winch?

    Sun is setting for 66 days in Utqiagvik (Barrow) Alaska

    Wife and I love Alaska! I've been to Valdez, Ketchikan, Juneau, and last few times I've been I have stayed in Gustavus. Gustavus is my absolute favorite place! We would love to live there full time.

    My new ride

    So I sold my old TJ and have really regretted it ever since. Yesterday I found my next TJ and bought it just before cooking the Turkey! I'm pretty bad at this computer thing so I dont really know exactly how to load pics on the thread but you can see it in my profile.

    What is the best riding and performing lift kit for my 2001 TJ?

    WOW!!!! That went off the rails!

    What do you think is the best all-terrain tire for the TJ?

    I have had several sets of the BFG'S and the only set I didnt like was on my f250. They didnt even last 30,000 miles. The other sets lasted and worked well in any terrain I put them in. I am in florida so take that for what it is. Might be different now but when I got mine they had no mileage...

    https://www.roughcountry.com/jeep-suspension-lift-kit-611c.html?find=2000-jeep-wrangler-tj-4wd-567239 Not trying to highjack the thread but this seems like a really good lift for the cost. Any opinions? Might be a good opton for the op.

    Does dropping the tcase effect anything else?

    Has anyone ever had Treadwright tires on their Jeeps?

    I bought a set a couple years ago. Stay away. They wont stay balanced. I took them off and they are laying in the yard,

    What other Jeeps do you like besides Wranglers?

    Honestly I don't know. I never really looked at it. It was stupid expensive that I know!

    I owned one back in the late 1990's. It was awesome offroad and still pulled my boat. I really hated getting rid of it. Had to battle the ex in a large legal battle.
