    Did the Pro Comp springs I ordered go out of stock the day I ordered? Now I have a mismatch

    So I was dreaming about 35s until I met with my CPA about taxes and she rained on my parade. While I gather my pride and cash, I noticed my front stock spring with 2"BB spacers were sagging over an inch, so I got on WTjF and found the ProComp springs seemed to ebb and flow in and out of stock...

    Why is my rear drum adjuster lever sitting so far from the gear?

    I just took off my left rear drum to apply some brake grease to fix a slight squeak. Upon reassembly, I noticed the adjuster arm/lever is sitting pretty far from the adjustment wheel. Is the tension going to pull that back upon applying the brakes or the parking brake? I have the tension wire...

    Will it fit?

    I just got a quote from a shop for 35s, and I'm looking for excuses not to do it before I see my tax bill (on extension for 2021). I currently have 2" spacer lift with a 1" body lift and 31s. The change would be 4.5" lift, keep the body lift and 35s. The Jeep lives in the garage and only has...

    2004 TJ automatic with clunk and shudder shifting into 2nd gear

    Hi all, I just drove around to try to get a video of the tach jumping up and down during the shift from 1st to 2nd. I didn't get that, but I did get a video of the slight jerky sensation (that is normally also visible on the tach). Here is a 1 minute snip of a 12 minute video. The shift in...

    2004 TJ Oil Leak

    I'm not sure if this adds much, but my rear main seal was replaced back when my 2004 4.0 Sport auto was under warranty.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Thanks. Do you know the recommended/favorite coolant type and percentage to water here on the forum? I don't mind googling it but with all the other info you have on the the topic, I'd bet you have that at the ready... I changed the coolant once, in like 2010... 🤨 I guess I should have been...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Thanks for the psa. Psa for you - they make dashboard bezels for double din stereos. Looks like it is time for an upgrade to restore your console plastic to new 👍

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    My cooling system is original to my 2004 4.0L. What are you going to do to yours? Flush it or replace the radiator?

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Took it out for the 4th to a local ahem, unofficial, trail and spent way too much time trimming branches for clearance. I don't recall seeing my temp gauge go over 210f before, but it would pass 210f the slower I went or idling in Park. I wish I would have had my OBDII reader to see how high it...

    Is this how pads normally seat in?

    Both left and right outer rotor faces are wearing the same way. I'll put some miles on and see how they seat in. Gotta wait for my automatic shifter bushing to come in the mail on Friday before I can go too far since I can't shift gears right now.

    Looking for good replacements for sound bar speakers

    I think the original size is 5.25" but people screw in 6.5" over the opening. I put 5.25" speakers with polyfill inside mine a long time ago. Be aware of the brackets to put larger speakers in the front locations too.

    Is this how pads normally seat in?

    I just got some new pads to stop a squeak issue. One of my old pads had a brack in the brake media. The rotors were more smoothly worn before. Mr Blaine was kind and honest enough to recommend another line of pads when the level of quality of his wasn't called for with my 31s. I have done the...

    Automatic transmission bushing

    So my TJ needed some one on one time and decided to strand me temporarily last night. I found out my transmission bushing fell apart. I just wanted to check and see if this is the right part to put things back together. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DGNMMXT/?tag=wranglerorg-20 Thanks, John
