    Rebuilt TUPY head vs New Clearwater 0331 head

    Glad to hear it worked for you. I'm starting to see a drop in coolant level, but no other symptoms. It may be a concern soon

    Bed line the tub or what?

    The previous owner of mine Rhino lined it and it looks great. Pretty tough stuff too. I decided to add the Bedrug pre-formed interior carpet kit with heat shield because it can get really hot inside out here in the summer. Went in over the Rhino lined tub fine.

    Loud rattle inside driver's door.

    As the title says, there's a loud constant rattle inside the door. The window rolls up and down fine and doesn't effect the rattle. I am planning on taking off the panel this weekend but wondered if anyone has an idea what it might be? Thanks

    CL Listing - 2001 TJ Auto - $4,490 Charleston SC area

    I agree, too good to be true. Of course, it's a 2001, so one possibility is a cracked head.

    New buyer help + rust concerns

    Older cars with mechanical speedos will add miles. However, this Wrangler should not. I know someone with a YJ that it did, but have never heard of a TJ where it does. I would also see what you can find out about the head gasket. What year is it? 2000-2001s have a head crack issue, not...

    Big 6” fender flares vs. stock fender flares?

    Mine came with 6" because of the wider tires. I actually like the look better, gives it a wider looking stance.

    Jeep compliments from strangers

    Actually, I'm the one who forgot what year he told me it was. Early 70s I believe.

    Jeep compliments from strangers

    I was sitting at a stop light in Santa Barbara, typical SB weather so top down, etc. and a guy waiting to cross yells "Nice Jeep Bro, really clean" He asked what year and then told me he had an old refurbished Bronco (forgot what yr he said).

    Okay is this weird?

    Staying out of the fray and back on the original topic..........I have found myself turning and just looking at mine as I'm walking away from it, say in a parking lot, etc. Just have to get that one more look!!!

    Rebuilt TUPY head vs New Clearwater 0331 head

    Awesome! How did you know you needed to replace it? I have a 2000 so it is a concern. Not seeing any signs yet though

    Need advice on a Jeep I’m looking to buy

    I agree. Arizona, Nevada, and CA have a bunch that are rust free. Just make sure you run the VIN on CarFax to see where it actually spent it's life. Last year when I was looking I found a bunch from back east and mid-West that are now out here.
