    Why do they only make metric size tires for 16" wheels?

    Yep, which is what I'll be moving to soon. Don't want new wheels just to stay stock on the tire size.

    New Bumpers

    Tell me how it comes out. I'm interested in that bumper as well. The only thing I'm worried about is the lack of contact points for the tire. I see that the tire rack itself is up against the bumpers on the tailgate, but there is nothing to distribute the weight of the tire. It is all on...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Picked it up from getting the transmission rebuilt.

    A new kind of soft top. Vintage heritage

    For me it would be the 1) extra head room, 2) all straight zippers, and 3) roll up side windows.

    Buying my first jeep

    That last picture seems to show that the tag expired in May of this year. If so, I'd try to find out why it wasn't renewed.

    The arms extend and everything. Just can't find an alternative to the six inch pads.

    2006 TJ on a Car Lift

    No, it is an older lift that hasn't been manufactured in 15 years (I've had it inspected to make sure it is still safe to use). The pads are roughly six inch square platforms that screw into the arm. Here is one picture of the skid plate interfering.

    2006 TJ on a Car Lift

    So, I have a two post car lift that came with the house I bought. I've lined up the TJ in order to lift it and found that the skid plate prevents me from getting the lift pads to the frame. Wondering if anyone with experience of lift a TJ would have any suggestions of a solution. I'd love to...

    Just got my first Jeep and have a few questions

    I'm impressed with the saving. Wish my son did that more. I'll let the gurus give you advice. Welcome aboard!

    Identify this knock please?

    I believe you should be able to just disconnect the endlinks. That's what I did when diagnosing a knock issue.

    Driving on top of the world

    Reminds me of the time I spent at the United Bicycle Institute in Ashland. Gorgeous area. Glad to see it's still awesome - I was there almost 30 years ago.

    James & The Sahara Build Thread

    I think it's well thought out. If you want me to spend your money, I'd look at doing a tummy tuck as #7.

    Wrangler TJ Gas Overflow Fix

    Sorry to say I was defeated on this today. Lack of space did me in. I could not find any way to remove the hose clamp nearest the tank.

    I haven't seen those before. Do you have a link to them for sale somewhere?

    the annoying hard start issue

    It seemed odd to me too that there would be plastic anything beyond it. I just kinda nodded when he said it.

    the annoying hard start issue

    For what it's worth. A tech at the dealership said that it is better to remove the IAC as there are plastic gears that can get gunked up with carbon deposits that are blown off when not taking it off. I have no firsthand knowledge though. Just what he said.
