    2004 Rubicon Air Intake / Exhaust - Valve Cover Gaskets

    Hi All, I began to take the Air Intake Manifold off in preparation for an Intake/Exhaust Gasket and Exhaust Manifold Replacement. In doing that, I noticed a large amount of grime and residue, which look to be mostly likely a result of a valve cover leak. It looks bad enough that it cant be...

    Nicest set of Jeep TJ DIY Higlines (AEV style)

    I would like to start by saying that I did not build these fenders. I just thought that they were too cool not to post. I love the way that the diy high lines look and have watched just about every video of people attempting to make the nicest set. Most people don’t go into enough detail or the...

    No start with P0508 code

    Hey all, First post. Have lurked quite a bit, thanks for all your insight over the years. I have an 05 TJ Rubicon. A while back, I noticed I was low on gas, hesitated to start later in the day but figured it wasn't due to low gas (gauge read 1/8 tank, and I know there's a reserve). Got it...

    My Jeep Wrangler LJ Rubicon’s rear differential carrier is damaged (locked and won’t unlock from the limited-slip gears). Can you recommend a place where I can get a replacement carrier or possibly upgrade ?

    Alternative LJ Rubicon locker pump relocation method

    It put my savvy flat belly on, and had to relocate my rubicon locker pumps. I saw lots of people relocating their compressor to the engine bay, usually the ABS tray. But frankly that seemed like a waste of valuable convenient real estate for something that is mostly set and forget. I have other...

    TJ Rubicon locker pump "teardown" and repair

    My front locker stopped working and I can't afford to buy a new Hyundai or whatever brand one. I decided to get the multimeter out and start testing - was getting power to the wiring harness so I knew the car wiring was "good" and everything on the circuit board had continuity. I tried to strip...

I'm feeling pretty friggin beat down at this point and I'm almost to the point of just taking it to someone and telling them to fix it. I really don't want to do that. I'm hoping that I...

    Front end clunking / popping / metal on metal

    Hello, I’ve had this 06 Rubicon for almost a year, and it has always had a little squeaking coming from underneath, but today the squeaking was replaced with a loud clunking / popping sound. Last fall I replaced the front diff fluid expecting it to fix the squeaking, which it did not. I can...
