Been chasing issues round and round on the jeep the last couple of months. I've had enough. Made calls today to Golen and my local mechanic. 4.6 stroker will be delivered to the shop at the end of April and the install will follow that shortly. My goal here is to refresh the jeep as much as...

Gearing up to do a small lift install. Bought a set of 2" JKS springs and some 0-2" lift monotube fox shocks (merry christmas to me). I think I've got the removal and installation of springs and shocks figured out thanks to some detailed threads here on the subject. I've also got access to a...

Hey all. I've got a 1999 TJ Sahara that I've been driving daily since I was 16 (16 years ago). The odometer just hit the 230k mark. Started driving it at about 90k miles. As far as reliability it has been pretty good to me. Issues through life of vehicle thus far: - Exhaust manifold cracked at...

Just got back from a 600 mile off-road trip. Check engine light came on half way through. P0138. Replaced my O2 sensors less than 5,000 miles ago with the NGK/NTK brand. Doing some quick browsing around the forum, thinking it might be time to replace the Cat. 230k miles on the original. Is...

I've been doing a bit of poking around the forum to learn what I need to do to get my 99 TJ onto 33 inch tires. My current setup is 31 BF KO2s, stock height Bilstein shocks, stock height Moog springs, and an antirock in the front. I take my jeep on a couple of big offroad trips every year...

Got on the highway last night and noticed a pulsing vibration. I'd say its about 1 second of vibration (more like a deep hum) followed by 1 second of nothing. I am noticing it most through my foot on the throttle. I asked my passenger about it and she felt it as well. Vibes go away at around...

Dropped off my savvy front bumper and fairlead mount to be anodized yesterday. Associate informed me that the welds would likely come out charcoal gray rather than black if the filler was 4043 rather than 5356. Anybody happen to know what Savvy has been using for their filler? Thanks

Hey all. I've got a 99 Sahara that's got dwindling MPG and occasional missfires. Time to replace the original 225k mile old o2 sensors. Placed an order on ngk.com and quickly got a response that the parts are "on national back order with no ETA". Did some googling to find mopar or resell...

I have a stock height TJ with an anti-rock. Looking at installing H&R springs (~1" lift). Will I need to order a new threaded rod for the anti-rock if I'm only going up an inch, or can I get away with running the set I have now? What if I add a 1" spring spacer? In a perfect world where I have...

Hey all. I installed some new Bartact seat cover a few months ago. Love em. The foam on the driver's side is pretty squished, which is even more obvious with the new seat covers installed. I remember seeing somebody in one of the Bartact threads mentioning that they installed some kind of pad or...

I'm considering this tire carrier by the reputable Dirt Worx fabricator: https://www.thedirtworx.com/product-page/rear-bumper-tire-carrier-rack-system I plan on sticking my 5lb propane tank and jerry can tool box in that little cubby between the tire and the tailgate for camping. Comparing...

Seen lots of discussion on here about how to lengthen the tailgate snubs to accommodate spare tires resting further from the tailgate, but none about shortening them. A while back I tried cutting one of the snubs down with a saw. End product looked like shit and wasn't short enough to fit...

1999 Sahara on 31s with no lift. DD / hunting rig / overlander. "Overlander" meaning 5-6 day trips once or twice a year that generally consist of logging roads with mild rocks (never personally needed by passenger to get out and spot). Also done some powerline roads in Lolo Pass near Mount Hood...

Hello, all. About a week ago I was climbing on the freeway in my 1999 4.0 5-speed manual and it started skipping. By skip, I mean I would very briefly (like .1 seconds) lose power and then regain it. It did this 10-15 times in rapid succession as I was overtaking a semi. My first though was the...

Hey, all. I've got a 1999 Sahara with ~210,000 miles sitting on original springs. Getting ready to swap my Bilstein 4600s with a set of like-new 5100s. Also going to add an airlift kit to the rear at the same time (Dinoot trailer build is in the works). I am conflicted on whether I should...

I've got a buddy with a set of 5100s in his 2004 WJ that are too tall for his needs, and I've got a set of 4600s in my TJ that are too short for my needs (looking to install some H&Rs). We're thinking it could be a win-win to swap shocks, but I'm not sure it will be a simple plug and play...

Long time reader, first time posting. I recently had some work done on my 1999 TJ Sahara when my sway bar snappped on me. Work included antirock, new control arms (stock), TrueTrac LSD front and rear, and a set of Bilstein 4600 shocks. I also replaced my 30" tires with a new set of 31" BF K02s...
