I have been hearing a low pitched ticking noise when turning full lock in either direction moving and still. The sound happened before and after a full zj steering install along with new balljoints, u-joints, and unit bearings. The noise only happens when fully turned and I can let off just a...

This has been going on for a while now I just haven’t had the time investigate it. On start up the jeep makes a bit of a ticking noise but goes away once it is heated up. Doesn’t happen every time but it is frequent. It is a 1998 4.0 3spd sitting at around 130k miles and a seemingly stock...

not sure if anyone else is in the same boat but I have been wanting to order the Savvy engine skid for about 4 months now but it has been out of stock on their website the whole time. After a few emails about a month apart they stated they had skids ready to ship in a week both times. I checked...

I was road-tripping with the jeep a couple days ago and after the first day the jeep started to make this weird noise. It goes away after it warms up and hasn’t affected performance as far as I can tell. It is coming from the passenger rear of the engine bay. Has anyone experienced this before...

My tj is the DD and I will be moving out towards Bozeman area in the coming months. For those who have experience in the Montana area, how are the winters in terms of rust and just basic driving? I still have family back in Seattle area and may drive home during the holidays if the passes allow...

My stock motor mounts are on their last straw before giving out at 122k miles. I am pondering the idea of buying a 1 inch” lifted motor mount like the MORE ones when I add a 2 inch suspension lift (No Body Lift). I am wondering two things: Is installing a mml worth it? And will everything clear...

Hi all, I have decided to buy the m8000 winch but have a few questions for my plan. My plan is to switch to TRE synthetic and safety thimble to prevent sagging the stock suspension and save money. Is there any reason not to do this and is it worth selling the steel line to make back some of the...

Hey all, just got back from a wheeling trip and while out there we came across a water crossing that was underestimated as seen below. Afterwards the jeep was acting funky no codes or anything idling around 2 and even 3k rpm we pulled the tps and it went right to normal so as far as I can tell...

I just installed my first cb to my jeep and am having a lot of static making it fairly difficult to hear people. I use the uniden 520 xl using th ANL mode as well as, (what I believe is) proper use of the rf gain and squelch. I have the teraflex mount but my swr was down to around 1.3 so I...

I have found that trying to describe anything about the hvac settings can be difficult for a google search so I might as well just make a new post for my specific problem. My 98 without ac and the slider selectors has acted weird and I do not understand enough behind the inside mechanics to...

I Have just recently found some coolant in my passenger footwell and thats got me looking into the fix. My only concern with everything is that the mopar replacements been discontinued since I have a 98. Does anyone have any experience in if repairing my old heatercore and putting it back in...

I have seen a few other threads similar but I would like some of the opinions for my specific scenario. So I am in the first stages of upgrading my Jeep it is completely stock right now besides some rancho 5000x shocks. (It is a 98 sport by the way) I don’t have the money for a proper suspension...

Ok so some of you may have seen my post from last summer about my cooling system problems. That ended up having a whole system replace because of a blown water pump and the radiator was getting leaky too. Its been a good few months after and I have started to notice the reservoir is going down...

I have been looking into this lift for a while now. Everytime I think Ive got exactly what I want down I rethink it. I do know i want the ome 2 inch and rancho rs5000 shocks but have no idea where to start with choosing between heavy or light load or a combo of the two. I have no plans for a...

With my search to find the right combination of everything for my daily. I am looking at the warn rock crawler front bumper which I’m pretty set on other than a dirtworx front. As far as I can tell I will be able to use my towhooks on that bumper which I would prefer over d-rings, though I...

Im not sure if these are oem or after market but either way there is absolutely no leverage or room to take these things off even after a ton of wd40. Any suggestions?

I’ve been playing with the idea of getting a locker for my stock jeep and was just wondering what benefits this would have for me since it is a daily and an up in coming overland build. I haven’t gotten down and checked yet but the vin report says my rear is 3.73 dana 44 which I have read is...

For the 98 wrangler, mopar discontinued the radiator for the automatic. If anyone knows where to find one that would be amazing help.

So I was cleaning out the engine bay and realized the coolant reservoir looked empty. I checked and it was completely empty so I filled it back up. I drove a little bit maybe a mile or two and I checked and it definitely dropped by about an inch. This alarmed me and am wondering if it could be a...

First off I would like to get some more opinion on my bumper. When i compare it to many of the other stock bumpers I see mine looks faded and I am wondering if its just me or if its true. If it is true is there any good ways to restore that color?
