Me again, Slowly getting all the issues sorted out but one thing that’s happened from day one is sometimes when I hit a bump or dip in the road when going 30+ the rear of the jeep almost doesn’t track with the front. The back wheels aren’t sliding, but it’s almost like I have to counter steer...

I’ve searched some other threads but I’m not sure I found one with this exact issue. Took a little day trip today and my Jeep was a little less than 1/4 tank full so I stopped to fuel up. Put the nozzle in and it clicked off after only 5 gallons. I started up the jeep and the gauge was showing...

Hi all, I thought it would be a quick and easy Saturday project to replace the rear pinion seal on my 2005. It’s a non rubi dana 44. I removed the driveshaft straps and popped the driveshaft out of the rear yoke easily. Pinion nut came right off with an impact. However the yoke will not budge...

Hi again, back with more annoying questions. Two days ago I jacked my 05 up at the front axle, to take a look at the brakes. Today I noticed a few drops of fluid on the ground. It looks dark brown so I suspect oil… however it is right at the transmission drain bolt. Do you guys think I have a...

Hey guys. New to TJs, but not new to working on cars. I’m wondering how much space there should be between the pad and the rotor. On my 05, it looks like they are touching, and it’s very difficult to rotate by hand with the wheels off. I have to use a pry bar to turn it almost. Is this normal...

Any idea what this noise could be? Car sat for a month and I changed the OPDA (probably unrelated) and noticed this sound when the key is turned to accessory. I believe the noise is still there with the engine running too. Any idea what it is?

I am really struggling to remove the sensor from the OPDA. I removed the small bolt but it’s like the sensor is fused to the stock OPDA. So I figured okay, I’ll just remove the connector on the other end and deal with that once I remove the OPDA. However… I can not for the life of me get this...

Hi everyone, I have a 100% stock 2005 with 45k that I have been refreshing before hitting the beach and doing some cruising this winter. I have been looking to improve steering feel. It tends to wander a bit on the highway and just feels sloppy and numb. Is this just normal for these cars...

Hi, I have been trying to figure out the source of this squeaking. I noticed it while driving and thought it was the suspension… until I noticed it even happens while parked. I don’t believe it is a drive belt… which leads me to believe it’s transmission related? I have the 6 speed. Video link...

Hi everyone, Picked up a TJ with 45k miles last weekend, and some problems I notice straight away are a bit of rust, and the pinion seals on both differentials are leaking a little. I will attach pictures and I’d like to know some opinions. I checked inside the frame with a borescope and it...

Hi everyone, My wife and I decided to add a Jeep to our garage about a week ago, and figured I would join here to get some insights from you all and be a part of the community. We now own a 2005 Rocky Mountain Edition. It has a 4.0L and the 6 speed manual. Only 45k on the odometer too. Has a...
