    Yeah, they have really been hitting us over the last few weeks.

    I've given you the ability to bypass "flood check" and "spam check". Hopefully this will prevent you from having to wait. If that didn't do the trick, just let me know and I'll click more buttons until we get it.

    Looking to re-gear and hoping for suggestions.

    I'll probably run 33s for the time being, but I may go to 35s. I'm not sure about running 35s on my Dana 30. I do have chrome-molly axle shafts, but I'd still hate to snap an axle. You're right though, now that I've done gears once I'm ready to jump back in. I paid $230 for the ring and...

    Looking to re-gear and hoping for suggestions.

    I've been running 3.73s and 33 inch tires for so long that I grew used to how much the engine lugs. I am doing 60mph or so at about 1600 RPM - I shake my fist at the tractor trailers as they blow by me. I've needed gears for a while. I used this site to figure out my new speeds and RPMs, it's...

    Looking to re-gear and hoping for suggestions.

    I'm looking to change out the 3.73 gears in my 2005 Jeep TJ. It has the 4.0L and the 42RLE auto trans. I currently have 33s, and may upgrade to 35s in the future (but this isn't set in stone). I've got a dana 30 with a lunchbox locker in the front, and a ford 8.8 with a factory limited slip...

    Wrangler TJ Won't Go Into Low/Park? Here's How To Fix It..

    You're right - it looks like those photos are missing. I think back when he posted the photos were hosted somewhere else, but they have been taken down since then.

    Mild JK Build

    What front seats did you go with? My driver is a bit broken down - I've thought about putting new foam in, but never did anything. New seats sound alot easier.

    What would u think of this price?

    That one photo looks good, but I think photos of the frame would really tell the tale. Get some frame shots. $7000 is alot for a 1999, but it could be worth it if done nicely.

    Offroading at AOAA in PA

    I recently got back from my Jeep trip with the boys, we had a great time, hitting both Rausch Creek and AOAA in Pennsylvania. I picked up a badge of honor at Rausch Creek (we had never been there), but I think that AOAA was voted the better park. I was the only one to not get any damage - one...

    replacing back window

    I use this stuff and like it https://www.amazon.com/Star-Brite-Zipper-Lubricant-Protectant/dp/B0014489WM I've heard of people rubbing chapstick on the zippers. I've found that everything with a softop is easier if they are warm. Try parking it in the garage if that's an option. Be careful if...

    Yet another gadget.

    I took this offroading in PA, and I'm going to say that it's a pass now. It beeps all the time - just tanking the off-ramp on the highway will have it beeping. I've found that when I'm really off camber on the trail, I know it's bad, and having this beeping just adds to the stress. at AOAA we...

    Harbor freight parking lot sale starts tomorrow

    Now you're speaking my language. I pay for the membership so when the sale first started I picked up this nice impact set at 35% off. I removed the pins on the hinge and it fits nicely in my cabinet. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk

    Yet another gadget.

    There's only two buttons on it - one to reset the angle, and another to dim the brightness. You get what you get as far as the alarm angles. It does make a sound when you rotate too far - I can just hold it in my and and tilt it until the alarm sounds. It's what you'd expect for $29. Not...

    Yet another gadget.

    I'm getting ready for my yearly off-road trip so I had to find some more gadgets to add to my Jeep. I found this inclinometer on Amazon and it actually seems pretty cool. I mounted it in my Jeep using a removable GoPro mount so I'm not going to keep it there all the time. So far so good. We'll...

    Distributor pickup coil aka Switch Plate

    You had to scare the coil into thinking it was being replaced.

    Distributor pickup coil aka Switch Plate

    1994 XJ with a 4.0L right? Does your coil look like this one: https://www.ebay.es/itm/197028692720 if so, I think this is the test procedure:

    Thoughts on Moab 392 vs Willy 392?

    It looks like the Willys is going to be a cheaper version ($71,990) than the Moab ($82,585). It appears that you won't be able to order the Willys until March, and that may mean you have a few months to wait for delivery. I wasn't able to find a good a good comparison between the Willys and...

    Greetings from new member in the UK with temp sensor question

    I order most of my stuff from RockAuto as well. How expensive is it to have parts shipped to Spain? I usually spend $15 or so to have it shipped inside the US.

    Is this pinion as bad as I think it is?

    I finally got it all wrapped up! I am by no means good at this, but I ended up taking the carrier / pinion out at least 25 times - one one Saturday I had the whole thing apart and together at least seven times. I believe my core problem was that the pinion bearing became worn. This allowed...
