    How to straighten a bent tailgate?

    I’m looking to straighten my tailgate in preparation for a tailgate skin install. The pics show how it’s bent in the lower left corner (one of the few things the POs messed up on an otherwise stock rig). I assume it’s from hitting an object while closing. Any suggestions on how to save...

    M18 Compact vs M12 Stubby 3/8" Fuel Impact

    I recently got the M18 3/8" compact, and while I've been very happy with it, I'm wondering if I made a mistake. Looking at the specs of the M18 3/8" Compact and M12 3/8" Stubby impacts, they have identical fastening/removal torque specs of 250 ft lbs. The M18 does have a slighter higher...

    Are these Rubicon shafts?

    How can I verify if these are TJ Rubicon shafts? The inners are 30 spline, so I’m pretty sure they are, but wanted to confirm they’re not some oddball set of super 30 shafts.

    Things Chrysler did a great job on with the TJ

    Lately I've been thinking about the sheer number aftermarket mods out there for our Jeeps, and how often they don't offer functional improvement over stock. Very often, they're even detrimental to function. I'm starting to think that Chrysler engineers may have known what they were doing, after...

That said, anyone know of a shop in the greater Seattle area...
