SOLD!! Let it go for $15,750 to a 22 yo kid who could barely contain himself :) 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ Unlimited, 122,000 miles. The ONLY reason I am selling this is because I have the opportunity to move on to a bigger rig for the off roading that I want to do. This Jeep is extremely capable...

Replaced my engine with a re-manned ATK. Previously I could remove my oil filter with a little tweak from an oil filter wrench and it came right off. I replaced the filter at 250 and also 500 miles and each time a Mopar filter was used and each time it was just snugged down by hand. When it came...

Background... 2004 LJ 4.0L automatic Just put a new ATK engine in the Jeep and there is a significant leak at the OPDA/Cam shaft positioning sensor. My first assumption was the thin paper gasket wasn't doing it's job so I bought the Mopar one which clearly was a better gasket. I took the top...

The new engine is in and running smoothly. The gasket that came with the engine for where the camshaft positioning sensor/oil pump unit goes into the block is leaking. It is just a thin paper gasket and forgot to put a thin layer of RTV on it to be safe. I can find the sensor part that bolts on...

New engine is in, bunch of parts had to be replaced during this procedure, flex plate was discovered to be out of round AFTER the engine got put in. So now it is at a tranny shop having that replaced because my mechanic friend is out of time to fix that and we agreed to out source this last...

Stumbled across this on amazon, what the heck is it and is it worth even using? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MZ2IXXX/?tag=wranglerorg-20

Hi Guys, A friend of mine is in the market for a TJ and is partial to blue. He sent me two Jeeps he is interested in and IMO the first one listed below is nice but seems to be a bit high on the price. I think $11k would be a good deal but I'm by no means an expert. Off the cuff could you guys...

Replacing the engine in my '04 LJ and the hoses that go from the tranny to the radiator need to be replaced. I have looked everywhere online and can't find these. All I come up with are the solid metal lines. Does anyone know where I can get these? I DO NOT want to use regular hose and bend it...

I know this has been asked before and I have tried searching but can't find the answer. This question is regarding tire size calculation for entry into a Tazer for my wife's JL. Yes, I know this is a TJ forum but the fact is there is a lot of solid data over here that isn't always found on the...

'04 LJ, auto, 120k miles Lately my engine has been sounding more like a diesel then a proper 4.0L. Did some research and it looks like I'm one of the lucky ones that has something going on in terms of a piston skirt breaking off or a rod bearing. Obviously we won't know until the oil pan gets...

These seats SUCK when they are worn out but actually not too bad when you sit in one which was barely used, such as my passenger seat. The driver's seat is shot, looks great but it has zero support. I have already swapped the lower seat cushions and even tightened up the springs on the driver's...

I apologize in advance if this post gets too long, I'll try to keep it short but want to give as many details as possible. I still consider myself a noob when it comes to my LJ and the TJ platform in general. Yesterday we had a great day off roading but near the end of our adventure I noted the...

2004 LJ, 4.0, auto, 120k miles I do have the rear main oil seal leak and I get the little dime shaped oil stain where I park. I can also see I'm a little damp on the driver's side of the engine from a valve cover weep and possible oil pan gasket weep. NONE of this is causing any substantial...

I noticed that when I run my A/C the compressor is very noticeable. It kind of makes a wherring noise as it cycles off and on and it seems to cycle frequently. In comparing it to other vehicles it is considerably louder. The A/C blows cold and hasn't given me an problems.

I've been getting a whistling bird singing noise from the rear diff area where the drive shaft enters it. I was told to check out the U joint and sure enough the races are pretty scared. I bought a grease less (lifetime grease) joint from Spycer and installed it (youtube'd it to make sure) The...

2004 LJ 4.88 gears 33s Automatic I was on the trails yesterday and noticed something I hadn't before. I was in 4LO and D and when I would get on the gas to climb over something there would be a pause then it would engage. It felt like it was hesitating to downshift or pausing before a the...

So the Mrs. and I went off roading at Uwharie National Forest yesterday and hit some fun challenging trails. On the way home I walkie-talkied her and said we gotta pull over, something is very wrong with my steering, I can't go over 50mph without feeling really unstable. So we pull over and I...

I have '05 Rubi D44s in my '04 LJ. About a month ago I started to get a LOUD "singing/chirping" that I finally hunted down. Someone on the forum mentioned the rear pinion seal or bearing (I can't remember which one). I jacked up the rear and started the Jeep and got the noise to re-produce and...

Yep, that about sums it up. Scenario: 95 degrees out. Jeep started fine, all gauges and temps normal. Got to store turned Jeep off. Came out of store put key in ignition and when I turned it to start I heard a "click" and EVERYTHING is DEAD. No power, zilch. I'm guessing a fuse or relay but I...

I have developed a new noise, it is a very loud whistle sound. Loud enough that the Mrs. heard it on the road while she was driving behind me. It starts after around 20 - 30 mins but it is not consistent. I noticed when I let off the gas and coast it goes away but when back on the gas it starts...
