Ran the Rubicon Trail for the first time over the past two days. Intermittently I would lose power steering. At first I thought maybe my front locker was failing to disengage, but it became clear that it was the steering. I had no leaks in the lines, and the fluid level remained constant...

So, after removing a 1” t-case drop I couldn’t shift into 4 low. I used the adjustment bolt 13mm on the linkage arm and now seems to travel further and engage. Only problem is there is significant contact between a pivot point on the linkage and one of the bolts/mounting brackets. It takes...

Never Installed / Still in the box 97-02 TJ skid Had plans to mount this, but after putting a dynatrac front axle in, it won't bolt up without modification ( which I don't plan to mess with). Link for details...

Picked up this little gem.... First time I've plugged a tire. So far, so good!

My wife's Sequoia spent too much time in our garage during the beginning of the plandemic and ended up with well over $10k in damage from a rat in just a few weeks. Apparently Toyota uses the soy based wiring.... The dealership wasn't surprised at all and said it was far from the worst they've...

New bumpers, winch, and lights.... Before & After....

I removed my factory fog lights and am trying to separate the the wire connectors from the fasteners that secure it to the frame. They don't seem to slide out with moderate pressure, and I really don't want to break these 20 year old plastic pieces. My goal is to re-use them with some...

Completely agree. Hands down one of my favorites!

You'd think California would have bigger issues to concern themselves with... but you're right, they would absolutely love to "tax" you some more!

Took me waaaaay too long to figure that out on my own!

My "cheap" vehicle is quickly becoming the most expensive vehicle I've owned....

Ugly PURPLE dashlights installed by PO were starting to flicker. Perfect excuse to use the knowledge gained here to pull the dash apart and replace with some nice clean white LED's. While at it I swapped out the dull yellow footwell lights for LEDs as well as the soundbar light. Couldn't stop...

Appreciate the insight. I don't plan to trailer at any point, so I'm often driving a good distance to trails. With the 4.88 am I just looking at spending more time in 4th gear while climbing? I'm concerned that with the 5.13 I'll be winding out RPM's if I spend a good amount of time on the...

The more I read and try to understand this stuff, the less I seem to comprehend. I have a 2002 4.0 with 5-speed manual and am about to go to 35" tires with 4.88 gearing. Its been a mental roller coaster ride thinking that I made a good decision, then a terrible decision, back to a good...

31" KO2's for a little over 1500 miles now. Done both highway and offroad and so far zero complaints!

I recently purchased the jeepcables.com setup and would not recommend them for a TJ. The wires that enter the fuse box do not have a 90 degree bend, so if installed they are completely in the way of the battery. Also, the in line fuse it utilizes has no place to be cleanly secured given the...

That looks well protected indeed! Do you have a SYE or body lift to compensate? I am really going back and forth trying to wrap my mind around all of this.

Which body / motor mount lift would you suggest? Is this something an amateur could/should attempt? That M.O.R.E. engine skid looks like a great option!

Rasband, Good point. I have no idea if the drop was needed. It seems like it was all part of a kit, so likely just thrown on there.
