So I’ve replaced the OE perished Wrangler wheel/tyre combo on the rear gate with a 275/55 R15 fresh one. Given the 31.5 11 R15 Yokohama G003 on all 4 wheels the question is: in the event of a flat and having to press the space saver into service which axle should it be fitted to? The TJ has...

So I'm very pleased to have imported from Japan a mid 2004 4.0 Auto Sport TJ which was orginally exported to Japan back in 2004. Its been very well looked after but seems to have been Nippon-ised in various ways. The sat nav / smart roads system seemed to have many aerials and miles of cables...

I’ve read many discussions on various places to put a sub woofer...but has anyone bought an off the shelf active subwoofer and fitted it under the front seats? Are the seats handed in any way...ie can you place the sub under either seat?

My new (to me) 2004 Wrangler TJ will soon be on a boat from Japan to the UK..they sent some pictures from the port to confirm the condition..seems OK to my eyes (underneath)..however it has a snorkel fitted (which I was planning to remove).. I see from the engine bay shot that the snorkel is...

Not sure if it’s already been covered..does anyone know how difficult the task is? My TJ has 50k miles and was thinking of adding this to the to do list. Is it a complex task? Can it be done in situ? Lots of special tools?

Probably from a time when designs weren’t optimised / graded.. Was pondering whether with a supercharger there were any torque limits that could be breached on the TJs?

As a newbie whose many vehicles have all been metric based and in the case of my BMW Z4 is best serviced / maintained with a laptop looking for recommendations on building a Jeep TJ tinkering tool kit.. I assume all fasteners are imperial eg AF?

I have a frustrating 2 months waiting for my 2004 TJ 40 auto (Japanese spec) coming from the Land of the Rising Sun.. So while I wait I'm an arm chair theorist. The 40 Sport is fitted with what appears to be 15" alloys with Yokohama Geolander G003 tyres. Questions What tyre pressures would...

I have a frustrating 2 months waiting for my 2004 TJ 40 auto (Japanese spec) coming from the Land of the Rising Sun.. So while I wait I'm an arm chair theorist. Looking to a future point and this falls into the 'because I can not because I need to' camp.. The 4.0 Sport comes with 30 Dana...
