So, I was hauling my trailer at night and was shifting out of 4wl and my shifter felt disconnected. So I got under there and sure enough a rod was just laying there disconnected. With help from a friend I got it into 2wh, but now I have no way inside the TJ to shift it into 4wd. My TJ...

I broke my right side fog light and was hoping to replace it with a Mopar one. I see the big companies list '05-'06 ones, but I can't seem to find the correct '04 fog light. The light itself is okay, just the housing broke. Just looking for advice. I could go aftermarket, but I prefer not to...

Thinking way outside the box here, but maybe someone is an earthmover or....well has an idea?? I have a gravel road behind my home and it is private and shared with neighbors. The watcher pushes stone around and it is a drag. I have a 2" hitch. I see people dragging baseball fields and...

Wow, what condition are your TJ's? I have never owned a vehicle that had such an issue. Maintain your cars and keep up on them. We are lucky to live in such times.

No AGM, but I guess I could have got one made locally. $208.. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00T3MP100/?tag=wranglerorg-20

I went with a more local battery that my mechanic recommended. He owns a very large shop and I have known him since we were around 10 years old and we are now in our mid 50's. We are brothers from a different mother, so very close. He also works on a lot of TJ's, CJ's and the like, not to...

So I did upgrade to the knock-offs and they are still going strong. I am very happy. $100. Not bad.

He stated that after ONE person's opinion and then a bunch of opinions followed. You seem to think he stated that after several opinions. He didn't. To the OP: The underside of the Jeep looks okay, but that damn rocker sucks. Rust will continue even in So Cal, BUT you CAN stop rust from...

Wow, old thread. I gave it to my mechanic. He either gave it to a customer that deals in Jeeps or scrapped it. I wouldn't sell something like that to be honest. It was junk. Had to reread this thread to jog my memory. That was.a long time ago. Glad I got this done and have been enjoying...

I agree. You have plenty of black to tie it in.

Me too. Never like the LJ as it looks so odd and not correct in a way and the wheels look too small for the openings. Still someone could make it nice. If I didn't love mine so much I would just throw it for sale for some dumb price like that one and see what happens. Problem is what would I...

I have a Borla cat back and love it. I put it on my XJ way back in the day and the XJ fell apart after 300K miles, but the Borla was fine. High quality product, but you have to pay for it. Worth it IMHO.

Thanks for all the replies. At 6'2" and with a messed up neck, I am probably dreaming. I guess removing the front seat is possible, but kind of odd driving around with one seat in your TJ. Would be lighter though and I don't have a spare tire either, so my TJ would really be light. Damn...

Well that isn't "stealth". It might not be able to. be done. Interestingly, I can sleep in my Audi S5 with the fold down seats. lol.

My '04 TJ is standard length. I am 6'2". Is there any ideas how to sleep in my TJ? I looked at the floor to take out my passenger seat and that looks crazy hard to figure out. Hammock ideas? I don't think it would be long enough even at a diagonal? Just wondering if it can even be done...

Here is my TJ. Quite possibly the nicest TJ out there. 2" OME lift 33 KO's that run small, which makes it a very good combo if you don't rock crawl or do really heavy duty off road. Mine is too nice to wheel hard. :) The Jeep I was going after in looks was Chris's old one. I do love...

I took my spare tire and mount off to clean everything up and restore it. I decided to run my Jeep without a spare a bit just to see if I liked it. That was over a year ago and I will never put it back on. I also only run 1/2 doors with is another huge weight savings. I pull very huge steep...

My axle was damaged possibly bent slightly and it wouldn't seal. I got lucky and found someone local that is a member of this forum that had exactly what I needed. Interestingly the bearing/seal was still on the one he took out and I just put it in and BOOM it worked. Just bad luck to have a...

I love my 1/2 doors. Picked them up for a couple hundred and they were the silver I needed, with correct interior slate color. Perfect condition. Very Lucky indeed. I should just sell my full doors. I'll never use them.

My TJ was to be my winter beater, but I realized how nice it was with only 37,000 miles on it, so I use fluid film twice a year. Once in the fall and once in the Spring. No rust at all, but I coat the crap out of it. My mechanic hates me for it, but he is my buddy, so all is good. Damn messy...
