Thanks to everyone on the cooling system thread. Found the mopar radiator I needed at rock auto. Theromstat was bad, so I replaced that as well today. Here's the POS the prior owner installed: And here's everything back together: Had to run to the hardware store for bolts--prior owner...

Thanks so much guys! The parts book has helped reassure me and I found a slightly less confusing mopar catalog to check P/N supersessions.

I need to overhaul my cooling system--radiator is leaking. I looked up parts based on this thread (2000 TJ I-6, manual trans) and the P/N for the radiator in the heading is showing as not compatible in the Amazon link and the mopar sites I'm checking. Anyone have access to a service manual or...

Back at it, trying to get ready for warm weather. Found a factory stereo from a Grand Cherokee and swapped that out. It has a CD player and tape deck both to replace the tape deck in mine. Works like a champ, was an easy swap, and has brought the factory speakers in my TJ to life. Night and day...

Found a receiver after digging through old threads here. Curt 13408 Class III 2". Easy install, once you get the bolts off the frame--I thought I would have to use an extractor but ended up hammering them out of a rigid power wrench and some wd40. Got it on, going to check back in a couple of...

I just finished wiring in a switch for my interior dome light. Thanks for pointing out the fuse, Quigley! I got some bumper caps to replace the milk jugs and am searching for something to paint the bumpers. Either bed liner or a flat black rattle can. If anyone has suggestions or pictures, I'd...

The deck cover is great. I really enjoy the combo of the top and cover. Mine is a Bestop Duster, they were on sale for memorial day--got it half off, which was the most I was willing to pay for it anyway.

I purchased a 2000 TJ last year and have been slowly working on all of the cosmetic stuff first. Hard top, no A/C. Here's how it looked when I bought it. I got a Trektop for the summer right after I got the TJ. You guys helped me get the header figured out and on the first time: This week...

I use an ANCEL AD410 for all my vehicles. It'll do live data, code lookup, etc. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071FSNL73/?tag=wranglerorg-20

I love my bartact covers. I got the red insert to sorta match my paint and it hasn't faded yet (almost a year later). Dig you MT wheels, they're on my list to get! Did you paint your fender flares?

Bestop tops come with everything you need. My TJ also came with a hardtop that I use in winter and full doors. I have the Bestop Trektop NX, but I think I prefer the factory style Supertops now that I've seen them at local meets. The Trektop sacrifices some cargo area and I keep my TJ in the...

I went with the bestop trektop nx. It was a pain to install the first time last summer, but that's a good thing. It's a tight fit, doesn't leak and looks great. The only thing that bugs me is trying to store the back and side windows. I can't find a good arrangement for that while driving around.

It took some fighting, but following the directions above I was able to get it on last night. I put it in the garage for a week with everything loose to let the fabric stretch. Then yesterday I pressed the header until I got the hooks in, left them unlatched and worked my way to the back closing...

Thanks for the tips, guys. I disconnected everything and attempted to close the latches to the header. With it disconnected I can almost make it. I might try to get some clamps in there; can't make it go with finger strength.

I've just purchased my first Jeep. It's a lot of fun and came with a hard top. So, I purchased a Trektop NX and attempted to install it yesterday. Everything came together great except for the front--it won't latch over the header. It just kind of sits on the header without really joining...
