    What did you do to your TJ today?

    I 100% believe that ticks materialize out of thin fucking air. I had symptoms of Lyme years back and immediately got on the antibiotics (doxycycline) for three weeks. The stuff made my skin extremely susceptible to sunlight and had to wear hats, sunscreen and long-sleeved shirts anytime I went...

    1997 TJ 4.0 to LS 5.3 Gen 3 Swap

    I only speak from experience. I have had the same radiator / fan setup suggested in my LS TJ for almost 10 years now with zero issues. Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones.

    1997 TJ 4.0 to LS 5.3 Gen 3 Swap

    I LS swapped my 04 and have a few things you can do to save some money without sacrificing quality. Find a set of OEM cast LT1 headers on Ebay. They run on average about $200 shipped and fit in the TJ frame no problem. They hug the block really well. Get your radiator from...

    How bad do these 32RH shavings look?

    Looks like clutches and bands. The inconsistencies in size and shape are interesting. If you've ever rubbed two pieces of a composite together dry, it creates a similar type of galling effect. What doesn't fit my hypothesis its that the oil looks in good condition and isn't burnt. That's my...

    Drive 65 mph without rear driveshaft?

    With a SYE you're all set. No oil will leak out. I assumed you had a stock setup.

    Drive 65 mph without rear driveshaft?

    Front wheel drive TJ's. Next thing OP is gonna ask is if he can swap a VTEC in it. But yeah, running front shaft only is is fine. You might loose some oil out of the rear extension housing at first without the driveshaft installed to mate with the lip seal FYI.

    Chipped ignition key

    @Snuggybear, are you using the original key, or did you have a new key made? @C.J. Roberts is correct that the light indicates the SKIM (Sentry Key Immobilizer Module) is active and shutting your Jeep down. We need a bit more information on what lead up to this moment. SKIM key is light gray...
