About 6 weeks ago, someone asked me if I would sell my 05 TJ. A TJ that I had put a lot of work and money into. I told him that it was not for sale. He then asked me what the, "It's not for sale price." I told him.............and he said OK. Then the TJ was sold. I then picked up a 2020...

I will be traveling to Colorado for a 3 week, yes I have a lot of vacation built up, wheeling trip. About 5 days will be spent on Moab and then some time in Colorado. I have stayed in Ouray and wheeled most of the known and big name trails and will do some again this time. However, on my way...

I have read many topics and posts about ARB lockers leaking, but my issues are confusing at best. I had a reputable shop install ARB lockers in both my front Dana 30 and my rear Super Dana 35 in April of 2018. I also regeared to 4.88 at the same time. Almost immediately, both front and rear...

I have a 2005 TJ with a hard top. When I purchased the Jeep 3 years ago it had the hard top already on it. I later found out that this Jeep was NOT built with a hard top but instead, only a soft top. I do know that the correct year hard top is on the Jeep. Soon after I bought the Jeep, I...

There have been many, many heated discussions about building a Dana 35 or building a Ford 8.8. The question always comes up, which is better, Dana 35 is junk, blah, blah, blah. However I haven't seen many (any) videos of the Dana 35 in use. Before you watch the video, consider this. This is...

A few weeks ago I took some flat landers from Florida to Choccolocco Mountain Off Road Park in Jacksonville, AL. You see, Florida flat landers see nothing more than small rises in terrain; so any place with hills and rocks is completely foreign. We spent a fun few days and everyone had a...

I have several items that are recharged or powered by a USB plug and the TJ doesn't have a USB plug. I have one of those plugs that have a USB plug that plugs into the 12 volt accessory plug, but I grew tired of fumbling with a plug. My solution was to hard wire a dual USB plug. I knew that I...

I have a 2005 TJ, 4.0 automatic with 143,000 miles. The TJ was bone stock when I got it a year ago; not so much now. I have put about 6,000 miles on it. Today while out wheeling with some friends, I took the wrong path and went a really deep mud hole. Completely covered the winch and front...

Choccolocco Mountain is an Off Road Park located in North Alabama. I grew up and lived in this area most of my adult life. A couple of years ago I moved to Florida and there is nothing but sand and small rises in the sand. I have recently done a lot of mods that I wanted to test and get a...

As a result of my recent modifications, I needed an SYE and a new driveshaft. Got it installed today. SYE from Advance Adapters and a custom driveshaft made by a local drive line shop here in Pensacola, FL; Panhandle Driveline. I just love the look of new mechanical stuff.

I could not find any discussion about this product, so I thought I would give a review. The product is called Stable Seat. The front seats in my TJ rock back and forth about a 1/4 of an inch. This amount seems small but by the time the small movement makes it way up through the seat, the...

Some you are regular visitors to this site my know or have idea that I am about to embark on some pretty major upgrades on my 05 TJ. I take pride and enjoy, doing every possible repair or upgrade to my Jeep. However, I do know my mechanical limits and there are some things that I just will not...

Well, all of the stuff started arriving today.:dancer2:

I have had this Smittybilt winch in my Amazon "wish list" for several months waiting to pull the trigger, and the price just dropped considerably. Enough to make me buy one. $514.00 plus free shipping. The Smittybilt 98510 is a 10,000 pound winch that seems to have everything I am looking...

The time has come to update my Dana 35 to a Super 35. I have looked, googled and read a million different sites and forums, but I cannot find a complete list of the parts that I will need to update to the Super 35. My situation is as follows: I will NOT be doing this work myself. A...

I am currently "building, enhancing, playing," or whatever the proper word is, to my 05 TJ. This is my second go round with this "building" a Jeep. The first was a JK, that I sold and should not have. Moving on to my question. There are several little things that I like to do along the way...

I currently have 33x12.50x17, Mickey Thompson MTZ on my 06 TJ. It might not matter, but I also have a 3" Tera Flex suspension lift (Control arms and all). Currently my full size 33" spare is attached to the stock carrier on my tailgate and has been for the last 7 months; about 4,000 miles...
