Hey all. I upgraded the Jeep and went from 30/35 axels to a 30hp/44. I installed lockers and got a re-gear from a reputable shop. Before the re-gear the engine lugged all the time. I basically just ran it as a 3 speed. I have the 42RLE. The Jeep runs much better in the rpm band, but I lost...

Seeing if anyone has a guess, before I take it back into the shop. I did have gears and lockers done about 1200 miles ago. This noise starts at 30 mph, getting louder and higher pitched as I go faster. It is only when on the gas. The on and off in the video is from me letting off the gas. I've...

TLDR: Looking for successful regears to at least 4.88 on the 4 speed 42rle. I don't need to hear from 3 peed, 5 speed, or 6 speed, nor anyone with giant tires. The vibration thread got me scared to just go 4.56. Please include tire size, and transmission. I know the non 4 speed guys will still...

I built a switch panel to replace the old one under the center console. I realized that the overdrive switch won't click in to a flat piece of steel. I'm working on rewiring it to a new switch. I'm more just getting some clarification on how the switch is actually wired on stock. I know AC...

2005 here with a 4.0, 42rle, and 31" hybrid tires. Plans to go to to 33" some day. I'm new to Jeeps, and a shade tree mechanic at best. This is more to learn than anything. I've seen a lot of threads about all of these, but none that really address the pros and cons vs each other. This post is...

I pull off the doors a lot, and also just got a set of full doors with no mirrors. I'm trying to find a set of mirrors to put right in front of where they go on the door. Like on the outside A pillar/window area. I see a mount for the 97-02 mirrors, but also see lots of complaints about those...

Figured this would be a solution, until I some day get a roof rack. I was just making sure that having it simi tightly ratcheted down wouldn't damage the tire in anyway. The studs against the side wall as I drive and stuff. I don't care so much for these tires, but I have new ones on the way...

I'm getting a lot of hood flutter. I also want to change out all the latch stuff to paint a fender. The stock jeep one looks like I'm going to have to cut it out of there. Why would you put a thin, sharp square head bolt that relies on plastic to hold it in place to get the nut off. It...

I changed out my spark plugs. Went with the Autolite XP985 Iridium XP. Thanks to Bullshitkorner on Youtube. I made sure they were all gapped correct, etc. Anyways a few days after the Jeep threw its first code for me. P0340. It wouldn't go over 2200 RPM. I got home shook some wires and reset it...

Installing a winch finally. The fairlead seems like it is too big. It looks like the rope will be able to rub the bumper. About the best picture I could get of it, but the hole in the bumper is the exact same size as the fairlead hole. There is no way the rope isn't going to rub it. Just not...
