    ARB Rear Bumper/Tire Carrier + Body Lift??

    I don’t have a BL on my Jeep so I can’t be of any help there. There are probably spacers or a longer bolt that can be swapped. I would contact ARB directly. Mine came banged up and they took it back and expedited a new one to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    ARB Rear Bumper/Tire Carrier + Body Lift??

    Body lift is ideal. The installation is much easier with than without Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What vehicle would you own if you couldn't own a Wrangler?

    Between this one and a black one. Both sub 20k miles with sport diff. I think I'm leaning towards this one. Could make a decision this weekend but we will see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rugged Ridge Dash Multi-Mount

    Yeah, that's exactly what I was looking to get out of it. Didn't want to be fiddling for my phone to change a song or map something out. I just rest it in the mount when I get in and I'm good to go. Upper storage doesn't get much bigger, but it's definitely deeper and keeps your sunglasses or...

    Rugged Ridge Dash Multi-Mount

    I have had one of these installed for over a year now and I love it! I will snap some pictures once I get out of work. Very easy install. 5-10 minutes tops. Some double sided 3M tape comes with it, along with 3 screws to go into the stock tray (remove the rubber insert in the stock tray). In...

    Is this Duraflex highline hood any good?

    For those of you that love the look of the highline hood but don't want to highline their jeep just yet, the same company sells the hood to fit the stock fender style...

    What mods should i do to my 2001 tj

    Banks manifolds have had a bad reputation for cracking in the past decade. It wasn't until the last 2 or 3 years that they changed up their design and overcome previous design flaws. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What mods should i do to my 2001 tj

    Completely agree, I worded it wrong. I do believe that replacing the header, regardless of the brand, is what brought my fuel economy back to the normal range. But in terms of power and throttle response I felt a noticeable change from when we got the jeep in 2003 and when I began driving it in...

    dying at idle

    Sounds like your CPS - crankshaft position sensor. Cheap/easy replacement. One bolt holds it into place at the top of the transmission. If replacing I would suggest spending the extra cash to get OEM. I replaced mine with a Crown brand, engine misfired several times. Ended up returning it for...

    What mods should i do to my 2001 tj

    Most of the time I would fully agree with our previous posters... in this case I agree slightly but disagree as a whole. Yes, doing a CAI alone is minor. Header alone is minor, yet recommended. And a cat back alone is minor. BUT, the combination of all 3 actually makes for a very noticeable...

    Dana 30 is a keeper?

    32RH, 33s with no intention of ever going to 35s, 4:10s are optimal! It's exactly what I'm running. I jumped from 3.07s to 4:10s so I can't speak to 3.73s but I would imagine it can't be that bad. Mine is a daily with a few Offroad trips a year. 4.10s woke mine right up and got me back in the...

    What should I do next? Broke after purchasing wheels.

    Save up. JEEP - Just Empty Every Pocket. All depends on personal preference. Some easy/cheap stuff: I pulled the chrome stuff off of mine (individual preference). Pulled the plastic end caps off the bumpers and added the small end caps to keep out water (some) and complete the look a little...

    Is this Duraflex highline hood any good?

    I have been eyeing up this hood for a couple of years now too and searching for reviews on the product. I think I've come across a review or two somewhere. I will do some searching and see what I can find. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Soon to be Jeep owner!

    What state is this Rubi located in? That can play a big factor. All in all I'd say it has pretty common wear for a 13 year old Jeep. Generally the frame looks solid, but if you pull the trigger you're gonna wanna treat the surface rust and you should be good to go. For the price it's a pretty...
