    Sourcing 2000 4.0 manual radiator?

    Good luck. Their return service is terrible. You will have to ship it back at your own expense if they do not accept the issue. I am sure they will accept yours though, at least I hope they do. I tried to send back a brake pad and rotor kit for my wife's car which didn't fit and ultimately kept...

    Jeep Wrangler TJ Cooling System Overhaul FAQ

    I just did an unintended complete overhaul of my cooling system and am having an interference with the upper radiator hose and the A/C pulley. I have tried twisting the ends to raise the hose out of the way and I also used a bungie chord to pull it out of the way for a while and it seemed to...

    FYI: Ordered a Stant thermostat from Amazon; received a Motorad

    I recently ordered a Motorad Radiator cap because I could not find the Stant in stock. It came in as a Stant. Maybe order the "wrong" one and get what you want.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    That is some good advice. I have never heard to re-torque specifically for alloy wheels. I have done that with all of my suspension component replacements, but not for wheels.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    You are very right, I am very lucky that I could easily control it for the time I was moving.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Lugs not broken, and I found 1 nut on the way back to work after the tow truck dropped it off in my garage. The nut looks ok, but they are definitely well used.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    This is more of what my TJ did to me this morning. BMB rotor and pads will be ordered after I inspect the damage at my garage. Before you ask, the lug nuts were torqued to spec weeks ago. I have no explanation as to what caused this.

    The Official Jeep Wrangler TJ Oxygen (O2) Sensor Thread

    Reporting back on this. The 23131 is not a replacement for the 23151. The connectors look very close, but some of the marking on the housings are different. But more importantly, the sensor ends do not match. I am returning the 23131 to amazon and will be ordering off the Napa link if there are...

    The Official Jeep Wrangler TJ Oxygen (O2) Sensor Thread

    I already tried checking out on their site, but had issues when processing the order.

    The Official Jeep Wrangler TJ Oxygen (O2) Sensor Thread

    Since NGK has discontinued the 23151 for 1997-1999 4.0 Upstream sensor, has anyone found a good replacement for this? I can not find one in stock anywhere. I just purchased a 23131 as eBay states its the same thing, but I will report back if there are any issues.

    Car pics too cool not to share

    I was up in the area for the Overland Expo East with a buddy of mine. We stumbled upon the "open house" for the auction and found this thing. We had no clue what we were looking at until a nice man told us about it. There were some amazing cars there. A 4 row Dodge woodie van, a 1942 Ford GPW...

    These two geezers were also at the site. I think it goes without saying which I would prefer

    Car pics too cool not to share

    I happened upon an estate auction and found something very similar to this. 1 of only 6 ever made, and this is 1 of 2 still left. The 1st picture is the restored example, and the 2nd is the one I was able to see.

    2006 LJ rubicon (50k miles, manual) - $15.5k - Glendale CA (this *could* be good deal)

    I'm pretty sure that I have seen this same CL posting before. Could be a scam.
