    Help Identify Roof Rack Part

    Hi all, I purchased the Gobi Ranger roof rack for my LJ about a year ago and am just getting around to installing it now. I ended up damaging one of the small threaded rods that mounts the lower rear bracket to the uprights. I've contacted Gobi 3 times now about purchasing a new part from...

    P0700 and P1775 after camshaft position sensor error

    So my 2005 LJ was throwing an error for the Camshaft Position Sensor with a check engine light. I replaced the sensor with a brand that didn't work, so I then replaced it again with the NAPA branded one. Worked great for about 100 - 125 miles, and then today the check engine light came back...

    Camshaft Position Sensor Removal

    I'm throwing in the towel here, I'll just have to bring it to my shop and have them do it. 3 rounds of PB Blaster and pulling on it with every tool I have and it won't budge. I think it's just too corroded for my skill / strength level.

    Mine does look different than that, mine is similar to this style.

    Camshaft Position Sensor Removal

    Does anyone know how the camshaft position sensor come out on a 2005 LJ? I removed the one bolt, and I've been pulling on it with my hands and pliers and it won't budge. Does it just pull straight out? Or twist? Or something else? I can't seem to find a YT video on actually getting the sensor...

    Rock Hard Bumpers

    Anyone have experience with the Rock Hard bumpers? How is the quality / powder coat? Looking for something with gas can holders, and they seem decent from the photos.

    2005 LJ Frame Options

    Got the borescope today and took a few photos using the side access holes. Definitely takes some getting used to maneuvering it around. Will remove the bumpers, clean out the frame and then redo.

    Codes Everywhere (P0129, P0344, P0340, P0300)

    They haven't come back yet, the hard start, and the RPMs dropping to almost a stall at idle is gone. So I'm hoping not.

    Codes Everywhere (P0129, P0344, P0340, P0300)

    Just wanted to close the loop on this post, it did end up being the battery and all the crud on it. Once I took care of that, all the codes disappeared. Thanks for the help.

    2005 LJ Frame Options

    Thanks all. I did purchase a borescope and a sewer jet, so i'll give the inside a flush and look and see where I stand. Would certainly be great to not spent $5K+ on a frame and be able to use that money for other parts instead :)

    2005 LJ Frame Options

    So despite knowing its a bad financial decision, I've decided to do a "restoration" on my 2005 LJ. I know I'll have way more money into it than it will ever be worth, but I'm sentimentally attached to this specific one so I don't want to just buy one in better condition. Primary reasons for the...

    Codes Everywhere (P0129, P0344, P0340, P0300)

    Was very excited to start up the Jeep this week after its been sitting for a while, and be greeted with a check engine light, and the 4 love letters below from my Bosch reader. Has a harder time than usual starting, and drops RPMs. Sometimes it will stall and other times it just keeps dropping...

    Removing Seat Risers / Brackets

    I'm looking to remove the front seat risers / floor brackets from my 2005 Unlimited so I can sand off some rust and repaint them. I feel stupid even asking but I can't figure out how to remove them from the seat itself and couldn't find a thread on it here, or much via Google / Youtube. Am I...

    Bolt Size for Stock Tire Carrier

    Pretty sure it's a replacement tailgate, doesn't feel sturdy enough to be stock.
