I’m about to store a top long-term and I’m going to replace the molding around the windows and give it a fresh coat of paint and sealer first Do any of you guys have experience replacing the side glass molding and if you do will you please walk me through the process- Mine could be refurbished...

“Arab “, Alabama is a real town. It is 13 minutes south of me. This is the town comedian Henry Cho’s wife is from- Amy Cavender was her maiden name. The gifted artist Nall is from there, Nall Hollis, considered possibly the best draftsman alive by some. Thieves broke in the dealership this...

This tool is known in the construction industry as a Dasco bar- They come in several sizes and their main purpose is to remove trim gently- This one is about 6 inches long. The reason you might want to have one is it is ideal to bend your brake flange back at work when it starts to rub from...

I hooked my buddy Clinton up with a clean, stock 2004 Rubicon auto. The stock 4 wheel drive switch does not work at the transfer case thus no light. The dash function test showed the light works at the cluster, no bulb issue. (Hold odometer reset and turn key on) So, what they did was put a...

@Wranglerfix has been doing a great job with PCMs for years - everyone knows that. I have been very fortunate to get a beautiful black LJR that Blaine has graced, and it really only had one thing that bothered me- the overdrive final drive is a buzzkiller as we all know. Now in truth, it is...

A mechanic recommended these to me- sold at wal-mart- They work great and spin to see the size, i’ve used all 3 sizes for years.

I have been blessed to have some really great friends and the best ones know you and know how you feel about things- These were made for me recently-

This was given to me - I really don’t even know how to express my gratitude-

A TJ’s circuitry takes the cake- After I installed an LM470 relay, my accessory powered heated seats appear to get less power and turn my back up camera on and off - Apparently there is a loop between the back up camera signal at the reverse wire, which triggers the camera, and the accessory...

These three elbows absolutely fry on the side of the intake manifold- down low on the drivers side. Two of them can be replaced with Dorman part number 47092 and then there’s a smaller one that I believe you can find- If yours are stock you need to take a close look. Keep ‘em goin’...

@Hog and I are messing with jeeps today, ran into @John Cooper to swap parts at the Alabama fan club- gorgeous day

I decided to give the Milwaukee inflator a shot (It is pretty doggone fast) rather than use on board air for now- The little screw on inflator ends are a little time consuming- Attached shows a brass adapter sold by locknlube that allows you to convert the end to a 1/4” NPT snap type chuck...

My 2005 LJR has a Vanco big brake kit, and has a firm pedal with engine off and soft when the engine is started- goes 3/4” to the floor, the jeep stops ok all considered but doesn’t feel super smooth. It seems identical to the issue @Alex01 had with his notched knuckles- but i’ve not taken them...

I have a friend who thinks heat soak is really a result of the age of the vehicle resulting in a weakened fuel injection check valve, and this allows the fuel to escape creating the issue- Has anyone replaced a fuel pump in recent times and noticed a change for the better? Just curious if...

What is your preferred storage system for gear, to keep it stable on tough trails. I see the back seat coming out for sure. It is a TJR platform - Andy

I’d like to buy a pair with the hand knobs- open to any ideas , love stock quality. Thanks AndyG

Work has just been kicking my butt and I needed a break- We headed here, the site of the Jeep Jamboree last fall and had a blast - More pics and details later - guys on 37’s with mud tires were struggling…I had 2” of suspension lift, 1.25 BL and 33” KO2’s…… Below is the view from the top-...

We had another thread going and it got me to thinking with as much money as I have put into these and as basic as they are why am I so addicted? This is not really TJ versus the JK/JL so much as what is it that I really like about the TJ that makes me keep coming back- 1. I love the looks of...

Someone told me you must run lockers when in 4 wheel hi or you will damage the gears. I disagree one hundred percent and if that were true they would be set up to come on when you put it in four-wheel-drive. Also its not in the owners manual- I know the facts and I don’t need straightened...

I have a neighbor who is unlike anyone I have ever seem, 43, jobless, lives with parents, meddles, on Xanax for decades, and happens to be related by marriage and is the brother of a close friend. We grew up around this guy. He did not grow up at all. So I have a TJR and an LJR , and I like...
