    Whirring sound at low speeds

    Hey all. So I’ve got a little bit of a sound coming from my 97 TJ 2.5. It’s a rhythmic whir sound that only happens between 25-30 mph and can’t hear it much as I speed up. Also it goes away when the clutch is in. I just got a re gear done (4.10-4.88) and I’m still breaking those in with short...

    Dead gauges and footwell problem

    Howdy all. So I went to change out my footwell lights with some led strips and happened to notice they wouldn’t come on. Started it up to see if everything else worked and the gauges were dead. Checked fuses in the glove box and they are all fine but I did find a 10a blown under the hood. Is...

    2.5 TJ oil change and ATF flush

    So you just put say half a can of sea foam directly into the motor, run it for 100 miles and then change? This is a new step for me. Never had a tick in any of my XJs. I’d use rotella T4 15-40 in the inline 6 and they purred beautifully

    2.5 TJ oil change and ATF flush

    Itake time to change the oil on my new 97 2.5 TJ. It’s got the (I’m pretty sure is the) lifter tick. According to the sticker inside it’s got 5w30 which I think is too thin. I live in Georgia. I had read about possibly using ATF to add in the old oil, run for a little bit then change the oil and...

    New tire inspirations

    I really like the idea of 32s but I can’t seem to find them in 10.5x15. I had 35s on an Xj. Had to get a running start to get in it lol

    New tire inspirations

    Looking at slapping some new boots on my TJ. It’s got 33x12.5x15s right now. Lifted 2.5. Going to slap some tube fenders all the way around. I want to keep it pretty good on road as I used it as a daily. What would you guys recommend that’s a tad smaller and wouldn’t look terrible with the tube...

    Body lift removal roadblocks

    Lmaoooo. I think they were popular for people that wanted the look but not the budget. I’m happy to answer any questions and help you out. Most of it has been trial and error and I’m still not done completely 5 days in. Only thing I have left is getting the steering knuckle bolted and adjusting...
