    Nevada: Nice 97 bench seat with Subwoofer box for 2 10s built into the seat

    I just got a new used suspension seat for my jeep and am selling my rear seat with a box built into the bottom of it that will hold 2 10s. I am located in Las Vegas and due to the size and weight I'm unsure of how to ship so this might be more of a local-ish thing but if someone knows how to...

    Adding headrests to the rear seat?

    My 8 year old is a bit cramped in the back seat with his booster but I don't want to take it out because it has a high back with ample head support which I feel is important to have in case of an accident. Were there any TJs that came with rear headrests? I really want to keep my stock rear seat...

    Do any words or sounds bother you?

    I was talking with some friends today at work that know I hate the word moist and they kept saying it throughout the day to get a rise out of me so it made me think about other things I can't stand. So mainly it's moist and chewing noises, especially crunchy things. So I Googled "most hated...

    Questions about NP231 rebuild cost and what to look out for

    OK so I have this noise coming from my transfer case that really sounds like a chain with too much slack so I'm guessing it's the chain obviously. The guy who did my V8 swap will pull the case for me because it has a leak and fix the leak and at the same time address any damage inside the...

    Free: Anyone in need of a Vapor Canister and Purge Valve?

    I just realized that the vapor canister and Purge Valve were under the hood of my jeep still after my V8 swap and they obviously don't need to be there. If you are in need of these parts let me know and you just need to pay for shipping. They came off of a 1997 2.5 if that makes any difference.

    Anyone have any experience with Flex a Lite fans or Zirgo fans

    I am finding that the 14 inch fan I have for my v8 swap is a bit cheap and ineffective at keeping Temps down at slow speeds. So I'm going to a high cfm slim fan because as you imagine, there isn't much space between the radiator and crankshaft pulley. Does anyone have any experience with Flex a...

    Do I just need coil spacers?

    So my Jeep has a 6 inch rough country kit (don't hate) and it used to sit perfectly level with even space between the tire and fender, front and back. Then a V8 landed in my engine bay and it squarshed my suspension down in the front and ever so slightly raised the rear. Do I just add a coil...

    balfred's 1997 Jeep Wrangler SE Build Thread

    My parents were gracious enough to buy a jeep for me to use if I got good grades and didn't get into trouble when I was 16. I drove the jeep for 5 years before getting married and having to buy my own vehicle. The jeep kind of just sat for the next 10 years, rarely getting used and when it did...
