Really? With two sets of doors, both with factory mirrors installed; I'd have figgered closer to $14K...

The time MAY have come for me to sell my 2004 Jeep Wrangler Columbia Edition. 90,534 miles, clean CarFax, SKIM system, both Full & Half Doors (it came with the Full Doors - I sourced a perfect set of Half Doors when I lived in SoCal, completely stripped the paint and all hardware before having...

Nice "Mr. Mom" channel!

The less you put it up and down, the longer it'll last as well. The soft top on my 2004 had NEVER been down - since I've had it the only thing I do is R&R the side windows, in lockstep with switching out the full doors for my half doors.

Bunion surgery (that I've been putting off for ~15 years) on my right foot this past Tuesday - I truly feel your pain!

I hate to be a Negative Nellie, but there's a LOT working against you on this one. Salvage Title will eliminate at least a third of your potential buyers; 1997 is prolly the LEAST desirable of the TJ's due to its first year teething pains; finally, although you've done a lot of mods that were...

On 3-Pedal vehicles I easily switch back to right foot braking...MOST of the time, that is. I raced karts for a few years; between that and switching back & forth between automatic and manual shift vehicles, I seem to have NO problem... Now right hand drive 3-Pedal cars - THAT's tricky! My...

I don't "ride the brake" - in fact, I don't even touch the brake pedal enough to activate the brake lights. You, or anyone else behind me, would have NO idea that my left foot is on the brake pedal - unless you're tailgating me, in which case I activate the brake pedal enough to turn on the...

Sidebar: My mother was a professional driving instructor for several years in New Jersey back in the 60's - she worked for the Taggart School Of Driving, and was even voted "Instructor Of The Year" one year. She taught me a VERY valuable lesson when she taught me to drive; to wit: Put your left...

"Stop, slow down...what's the difference?!" Uh - THAT's the M-F'in' difference! As to your post-accident "verbal appraisal", I can only say "Spot On!" Sidebar (as a watch collector): Is the watch you were wearing okay?

In 50+ years of car/truck/motorcycle/RV "acquisitions", including 4 TJ's and a YJ, I'd call the TJ "iconic" rather than "classic" - the latter being a term that's been watered down to where it's questionable where and when to even apply it to a vehicle anymore. I already feel that the TJ is a...

As comedian Ron White says: "Ya' can't fix stupid!"

Question: What color are ANY half doors? Answer: The Color Of Money!

I did so as well, several years ago. I very much like the look, and they DO give off a greater amount of light - both color-wise and pattern-wise - than the stock headlights...

I've sold a car to a friend; no issues when I sold it, and none developed while he had it, which was for ~5 years - a '71 Corvette convertible, for the record... I'm getting ready to sell my RV to one of my oldest & best friends/dive partner of many years - 45 to be exact. I've been through it...
