I have a 2003 TJ Sport, 4.0, NV3550 trans (I think), Dana 44 with disc brakes in the rear with an ARB locker, 33 x 12.5" tires and a 4" lift. I came off the freeway a couple of weeks ago into one of those long winding 90 degree off-ramps. It was wet out and I was not going very fast due to that...

I had been dealing with water on my floors in my 2003 Sport. I replaced both door seals with new OEM. I checked the drain up front. It didn't rain much where I used to live so I just emptied the floor mats which held all the water, had high sides. We then moved to Canada where it rains a...

I recently moved to Ontario Canada from a California high desert climate and lived my whole life in So. Cal. I’ve never lived in an area where snow was the norm. One of my concerns during the cold time of year is opening the doors. It gets real icy. Do you ever have issues getting the door open...

I have an OEM set of fenders from a 2003 TJ Sport. Normal aging and discoloration. If you want them, I’ll sell for 50 if you will pick them up from Palmdale, CA. I also have the OEM bumpers and milk jugs. I can get pics later of those. No damage to them. I’ll do those for 50 as well.

I have been reading all I can find about the process of exporting the Jeep from the US and then importing the Jeep into Canada, we are leaving California, my wife is Canadian and wants to return to Canada to help out her aging parents. I’m still nervous about a few things. I want to bring my...

So, I have a 2003 4.0 manual transmission 5 speed. To my knowledge that is the NV3550. Now that it’s colder (like 30’s and 40’s) at home, it’s really quite stiff getting into gear and of course hitting second is quite the task. I switched to Red Line 50205 MTL 75W80 GL-4 recently to see if that...

My wife and I are moving to Ontario Canada, she’s Canadian. I’m bringing my 03 TJ Sport with me. It is a U.S. model with Trucklite headlights. I bought a Mobilistics DRL module from Amazon. It’s generic. If anyone has installed one of these, I’m interested in hearing from you. Otherwise, is...

I have an OEM tie rod and drag link. The rubber cups for the grease are cracking. They’ve never been run dry. I replaced the parts with Currie. Does anyone want these old parts? I don’t want to ship. I’m in Palmdale, CA real close to the 14 fwy.

Our thoughts of moving from California to Canada are looking as though they will become a reality, my wife is Canadian. A suburb of Ontario is the thought. Obviously it’s wetter and has significantly more snow than my current desert. I have 33x12.5 KO 2’s. Although I like the tire, I noticed...

I have a hill I climb everyday to home. I notice the AC switches from front vents to floor and I think defrost vents when I climb the hill or have moderate engine acceleration. Is that a vacuum leak? If so, anyone have an idea of where to look first? 2003 Sport 4.0, manual trans.

My wife is Canadian, and I’m considering the idea of retiring to the east coast of Canada. She has family in Waterloo. The discussion of bringing our Jeep’s to Canada came up. She has a 2015 JK, I think she will be ok. I have a 2003 Sport. I’m in California which has pretty stringent smog...

I’m posting here because this group has such a breadth of knowledge, I thought maybe I would get lucky. I have my grandfathers banjo. As near as my mother can recall he got it when he was in high school. Somewhere around 1927. There is a part that came with it, I have no idea of its name or...

I’m considering dropping the width of my tires to the 10” size. It would fit better under the flares and be lighter. However, I’m wondering how much driving off-road will be affected? Is it worth it? I would have to buy five to match the spare. I’m in the high desert. Scrub, smaller rocks to...

I have (to my knowledge) OEM steering components. I noticed while greasing things, the tie rod ends dust boots, and others, are cracked and leaking grease. I have read that the way to get these is to replace the components they are attached too. That being said I have found tie rod end...

I have an 03 Sport 4.0. As the weather started getting colder my engine began sounding like it was struggling to turn over. Being the battery was about 4 years old, I replaced it. I bought a red top Optima. It’s been in there a month. I wasn’t impressed with the speed in which it turned over...

I wrote a few months ago trying to figure out the trouble with my A/C. It turned out to be empty after being great for the last three years I’ve owned it. I took it to my mechanic and he recharged it and added dye. I went back the following week and he checked for leaks and found none. Fast...

I have a 2003 Sport 4.0. The compressor won’t engage. Blower motor is working fine. I’ve been searching around and one consensus is the Freon may be low. But, can you add it to the system when the compressor isn’t operating? I was thinking a little at a time until the compressor started to kick...

This is my first 4WD vehicle. It’s running with 33” AT KO 2’s with about 1/2 tread left maybe a tad more on them and I have rear lockers only. I live in the high desert, so I can drive in sun and partial cloudy conditions, oh, and wind. But, I rarely get to try snow. I’m considering cruising up...

I have an 03 Sport. It has a 4” lift and 1” body lift and new Ranchos all the way around. I’ve noticed that if I go over a bump, rock or dip with any exuberance I bottom out. I first noticed it when I had passengers in the back. Light people really. It was a mild trail and I remember it...

Anyone know what that is? I’m thinking maybe I can pick up some shoulder bolts on the way home from work to attach my bungee net too for cargo. Doing a trip tomorrow without the top. I know the inserts are in there, I’ve seen them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
