Selling my 2006 TJ, most of what is done is in my signature. I do have all my maintenance records and receipts from all the work completed. Jeep is in fantastic condition, but does have 3 rust spots included in the photos. Just over 137 on the odometer. No rust on the frame as it spent the...

Anyone in Illinois?? I have a pretty lucrative job opportunity that requires relocation to Champaign and was curious. Struggling thinking about leaving the oasis of East TN and all the trails, mountains, and lakes. Flat and corn fields is all I keep hearing, anywhere decent to go around that...

Body armor 4x4 front bumper and winch plate. They are in fair condition and I just repainted them. There are some rust spots that I sanded down before painting but you can see the remnants. Really sturdy bumper. $350 obo Don’t want to ship, but can on your dime

Which paint would you go with to paint a bumper? I have done my frame with the rust tough, but I’m not sure about a “semi flat” finish? Thoughts?

So in an effort to be cheap I decided to “restore” my sh*ttybuilt winch. The goal was to clean it up and put it back on the Jeep. While taking off the control box and removing the cords I had one really rusty bolt under the yellow cover. I got the bolt off, but when I went to put the bottom bolt...

I removed my winch and plate today to try and salvage them as they look terrible and are in rough shape. I purchased a stock swaybar cover off a TJ Lot but don’t have the fasteners for it. Would anyone happen to know what size that bolt that goes into the frame is?

I have been trying to do some research in here, but wanted to throw out a few questions for the gurus regarding exhaust systems. When I purchased my TJ last year the CEL was in for o2 sensors. The previous owner removed the cats at the engine, Jeep sounds fantastic, but I’m over the CEL. Not to...

Good day! While driving earlier today I went to brake and the Jeep just pulled hard left while I was steering it back over the line. I did it again on a back road, same thing, pulled hard left under moderate braking. I’ve done some googling and found a few things but wondered if anyone else has...

Noticed this on my Jeep, looks like an antenna or maybe a wireless receiver? It’s from the PO and he did have a fancy pull out touchscreen stereo system in it. It has a clip on the roll at to disconnect but it also seems to flow into the factory wiring of the sound at speakers too. Just trying...

Top of the morning folks! I had a question regarding painting and wanted to ask the gurus here. I believe I know the answer but figured it worth a shot. It says my paint from automotivetouchup.com will finally arrive today - 4 weeks. I had planned to sand the half doors down, prime, paint etc...

I used SEM 17373 Dark slate grey on my half door panels for my 2006. The shades look just a bit off, after much research this was the color I found to be correct. Am I losing my mind, should I have used agate?

I know the typical “broken bolt” sort of post, but hoping to avoid that! I need to remove these hinges to work on the doors. They have never been touched and are the awesome torx bolts. Best way to get these jarred loose without striping them to hell??? I put some muscle in it and can feel them...

I have gone through the 10 pages of interior paint conversations and can’t seem to nail down a good solid option for Dark slate interior panels from that read. Someone did use a SEM dark slate, but it was a classic coat, more for vinyl than plastics. Can anyone advise on a good match that has...

The journey continues to find good half doors, I’ve found a lot that are junk. I have considered JCR’s and wondered if anyone has them? Are they worth the money? I could save my self a lot of time and energy buying JCR’s versus the wild goose chase I seem to be on 😂

I purchased a stock airbox as pictured below. It came with one bottom box, 2 covers and 2 large tubes and the smaller tube . My kn has a sensor running into it, but with the two tubes I purchased I can either connect the hose or the sensor? I didn’t catch the fact that the box has a crack and...

I received my SEM Trim Paint and plan to do my mirrors and corner pieces to my windows this weekend. It’s probably a silly question, but should I sand them at all? I know a good degrease etc, they are just faded pretty badly, no peeling currently. Thanks!

To find the answer and to no avail. So I have seen it on “what did yo do to your TJ today” but search won’t find it. What SEM trim paint do you recommend for the window pieces and the mirrors? I have some good rustoleum I have used on the frame and several places underneath, but am unsure of...

While cleaning the Jeep today I looked a little harder in some areas and noticed some rust spots on the body (zoom in on picture) 😩. I also have this split on driver rear, just wanted some input, would it be safe to say this has been painted before? Seems so, also, these small “surface” rust...

Trying to turn my disconnect so it sits properly. Still considering antirock or jks, but for now this sits twisted which annoys me! Any words of wisdom to get it loose? I really need a vice to hold it while I twist, soaking in PB blaster currently. Thanks!

I have done some digging and the consensus seems to be that JKS are hands down preferred. Can someone enlighten me to what makes them superior to the others? Trying to decide on what to purchase in the coming weeks. Seems like pretty basic functionality regardless of brand. I do see the...
