    What is the best way to go about buying a hardtop?

    I'm looking for one as well.....seen a few on facebook marketplace in california. They do tend to go quickly. The two I have seen in good condition were going for $1500.

    Need advice on 35” tires

    I'll be the first to tell you that I'm not much of a mechanic. I recently bought my first jeep and looked at several. My wife was with me on a few that I looked at. She had trouble getting into Jeeps with 35's and is ok with the 33's that came with the Jeep. I'm not much of an off road guy...

    Why is your 8 year old daughter on TikTok?

    I have a 12 year old daughter that is hooked on tic toc as well. I monitor is closely and have told her to take down video that I deem inappropriate. Being in LE for 30 years, I tend to be a little over paranoid when it comes to kid stuff.

    2006 Jeep Wrangler stereo upgrade question

    Thank you.....that is part of the reason I asked. Not a fan of buying audio from quadratec. Quotes I've received from audio stores are more than what this would cost installed. I have the storage model of tuffy center console.

    2006 Jeep Wrangler stereo upgrade question

    To add onto this.....I have a good head unit (pioneer) and all four speakers were upgraded prior to purchase.....looking solely for an amp and sub. I do NOT want to put a sub in the center console (tuffy center console). Has anyone tried a product like this...

    I think it's about as high as I want it. My wife already struggles getting in, so don't think she will like it any taller. Thanks though. :)

    Tuffy's security center console installation

    Does anyone have experience with the center console only keeping the factory front half console? I will not be putting a speaker in this, so no need for the speaker option.

    Jeep Wrangler TJ LED Headlight Upgrade Options

    I've read through this entire thread and viewed many of the headlights mentioned in the discussion. Am I really going to see a big difference between $500 and $100 headlights? I currently have the stock headlights in my 03. I want black, not chrome. I'd prefer to buy something made in USA...

    What do you do for a day job?

    Sounds exciting.....started doing sports photography a couple years ago. Don't know what is more expensive, photography or being a jeep owner. haha

    What do you do for a day job?

    Recently retired after 30 years in law enforcement not a part-time professor at local university. I'm realizing that I may need to work more in order to fund the additions I want to my Jeep.

    Anyone using the B&M sport shifter?

    Had my 03 pop out of reverse today. I'm new to Jeep ownership. Bought mine last month. It is common to pop out of reverse?

    I'm sure you're correct......now that I'm retired and teaching part time, I might just have to try and figure some things out.......might screw them up a bit, but hopefully learn in the process.

    Thank you.....good thing I have very little mechanical ability and will be paying for most upgrades. Might help in slowing down the process.
