    Battery getting killed On my third battery

    I’m at a lost and quite frustrated. Something is killing my battery and I can’t figure it out. I have changed the alternator, starter, and now on my third battery. Could you guys shed some light as to what other components could be draining my battery?

    Shipping my Jeep from VA from FL

    I'm going to post on UShip now to see if I get lucky. I'm moving for work. I would drive it up but my rig hasn't been properly geared since the big tires were put on and it inhales gas because of this.

    Shipping my Jeep from VA from FL

    I heard about this service as well with Amtrack in Sanford. I considered it but it looks like you need to also board the same train as your vehicle. I still have other things to haul up north.

    Shipping my Jeep from VA from FL

    I hope I am posting this in the right section. I've done some research on shipping my vehicle and I can't affordable prices to ship my rig up to VA. I know it's going to cost more because of the lift kit and 35" tires but I'm not going to pay over $700 to do this. Has anyone had some experience...

    Rear End Differential Help

    I couldn't tell you exactly. I pulled into a parking lock and my rear end completely locked. I can't move forward or backyards in any gear. Once the rear end was pulled off, the wheels rolled freely

    Rear End Differential Help

    My rear end differential is toast. I need someone to help point me in the right direction. I saw some hefty prices and quite honestly, I'm hoping I might've looked at something that I don't need. I'm a first time Jeep owner so I'm not too fluent in what I should be looking for besides knowing...

    Fastback Cage

    Does any manufacturer make a fastback design cage for the TJ? I've seen photos of some really neat ones but they all appear custom. Either that or I'm not looking hard enough. I had my hard top ripped off after a tornado hit my town. How? I didn't have a back window at the time...

    Exhaust Header Recommendations

    I should have described the smell. It doesn't smell like oil or electrical. The best way I could describe the scent is that of seaweed or mud. It's quite unusual.

    Soft top recommendations?

    In doing some reading, I see some tops use your roll cage as support. How so exactly? Do soft tops come with hardware that is essentially mounted onto the roll cage? I'd like to get this right the first time when I pull the trigger I'm also leaning on this one...

    Soft top recommendations?

    I've never had the top removed. The best I can do right now is take photos from inside to paint a better picture. I'll go take some now.

It appears to be custom. Rear window is missing...

    For some time, I thought I was getting lower than average gas mileage and while there was some fact in that, I also discovered the odometer isn't recording my mileage correctly. I've owned my TJ for just over a month now and decided to reset one of the trip readings to 0. The drive from my...

    90-110 Miles, one FULL TANK!

    So I replaced the pre-cats, the third cat, and got a whole new muffler system from banks. I just filled her up yesterday so I'll track the amount of miles I get on this full tank and follow Jerry's steps. After replacing the whole exhaust system, it feels more responsive in 5th gear but still...
