    Any ideas what this is?

    Any ideas what this little tube is for? I'm guessing it's some kind of vent. I'm reasonably sure I'm taking in water through it when going through deep water holes. I thought maybe it was connected to the drain under the cowl but I verified it is not. If it is a vent maybe it's missing...

    Another lift kit conversation

    This is what I run into when trying to hire someone to install a lift kit. Is there any truth to what this man is saying? Casters, axle alignment for a 2 or 3 inch lift? In the end we couldn't reach an agreement because I disagreed with his choice of shocks, on a positive note we were closer...

    SYE questions

    After reading the lift information proved on the forum. It says lifting 3" will require a SYE kit and a double cardan u-joint/driveshaft. This might be a dumb question but I'm assuming this is in the rear being that the front driveshaft already has a double cardan u-joint/driveshaft? And...

    Brake caliper lock up fixed, but now TJ pulls to the left when braking

I actually thought it was going to catch on fire so I hosed it down. I got on the forum and read previous conversations regarding this subject. So I decided to...

    Will a Dana 60 ring and pinion fit Dana 35?

    I stumbled across someone selling a brand new Dana 60 4.88 ring& pinion. Anyone know if that will fit in a 2005 wrangler SE 2.4 cyl stock axle? I read the 60 is a lot of added weight and might have to change the gear cover? Thanks

    Radiator fan wired so it's always on?

    I read on-line a guy had his radiator fan in his TJ wired so when he starts the engine the fan comes on and stays on until he turned the ignition off. He said it runs right around 190-195 even in the winter with no problems, no issues, never worries about over heating even in 100 plus degree...
