    Initial Alignment

    I replaced control arms, springs, shocks, track bars, hub assemblies, axle shafts, Currectlync HD Steering, SYE, and installed an antirock sway bar. I have a ton of unearned confidence, and did all the work myself with the help of YouTube and info from people on this forum. I took my LJ in today...

    LJ - 4" lift necessities

    I have an '05 LJ currently with a 3" lift. The off-road shop I took it to talked me into 35's and adjustable control arms (said it would be fine for what I do). The tires slightly rub the rear inner fenders on the off roading that I do. I'd like to go to a 4" lift to eliminate the little rubbing...

    Installed Fishbone Piranha front and rear bumpers (to match the sliders), a Warn m8000s, a spare tire delete licence plate (hated the way it looked), then replaced the spare tire delete with a Morryde reinforcement kit and spare tire holder. I bought the Jeep without a spare. Having the tires...

    P0516 code and voltage gauge not working

    This is the information that I need. I liked the face regarding the current connection image. I agree, it's a head turner lol. I really appreciate everyone's input. I'm glad I didn't order the Optima yet. I'll be sure to get one of the batteries you recommended. Do you recommend a new alternator...

    P0516 code and voltage gauge not working

    Thank you for the help. The plan is to replace the current battery with an Optima yellow top group 34 AGM battery that has optional terminals to clean up the connections.

    P0516 code and voltage gauge not working

    I removed all the cables from the battery and reinstalled them. I did a gauge check by pressing the trip button in, and the gauge only moves when it maxes out. Everything connection wise seems fine. The code had gone away after I reconnected everything. Will the codes automatically reset if the...

    P0516 code and voltage gauge not working

    Hello all. Installed a brand new warn m8000s on my '05 LJ. Did everything as described in the instructions. It was cold when I installed it (20 degrees or so). While installing the rope, I noticed the aftermarket stereo and amp installed by previous owner powered down and the check gauges light...

    The dolly's were great for moving the Jeep. I don't know that I would trust leaving the vehicle on them. I assume they would eventually start to bend. They were from Amazon.

    I had to be able to get it Tetris'd into the garage until I can build another one for it. I wasn't about to leave it sit out in what we have here.

    I have always wanted a Jeep. Had a Tacoma as a daily driver and was going to switch to the Gladiator. I decided a full size truck was better for my needs, and got a 2005 LJ to mess with. It's only seen salt one time. It will definitely be a 6-8 months out of the year toy for me. Ordered bumpers...
