    To respray or not to respray: minty half doors

    After searching for decent set of half doors in the closest matching color to my steel blue TJ for a few years, I finally managed to buy a beautiful set in gunmetal blue. These doors are in fantastic shape with no rust and good interior panels. You can see the clear coat still shines. My...

    Dealer suspects a cracked head. What do the experts think?

    I have posted about this in a few other posts but hoping to get more responses here. I have been chasing a cylinder misfires for a few months now. All this appeared to start after I changed out a bad crankshaft position sensor. Since Mopar units are no longer an option, I installed an NTK sensor...

    Pulverized my coil rail plug, how screwed am I?

    I am the one and only owner of my 2001 TJ auto so unfortunately no PO for me to blame here. For over 20 years it has run like a top only throwing a CEL once for an EVAP leak. Recently had a crank but no start issue that was traced to the crank position sensor going bad. New one worked great but...

    Need suggestions for engine misfire (potentially sensor related)

    Hello All... I have owned my 2001 TJ auto with 4.0 since new and despite some of the issues with occasional leaks (RMS, valve covers, radiator), the engine has always run like a top for over 20 years. Truthfully, the only time I have ever experienced the check engine light was for an EVAP code...

    SOLD Quadratec 4 inch Round LED Light Kit

    I have a set of Quadratec 4 inch LED flood lights available. They came off my 2001 TJ that I had mounted to the factory harness using an adapter plug which worked flawlessly. They are super bright and only about 3 years old. They only issue is I noticed they were pretty much stuck to the...

    SOLD JKS Quicker Disconnects - JKS2000

    I just upgraded to a Savvy Antirock kit and have a set of JKS Quicker Disconnects for sale. These are the JKS2000 model which were targeted to TJs with 0 - 2 inches of lift when I bought them. However, my lift turned out netting me 2.5 inches of lift and they functioned with no problems. I see...

    Third transmission leak in 4 years—what is the dealer missing here?

    Hello All... my 2001 TJ with 3 speed auto needs to go back in for a transmission fluid leak. The leak is not major but definitely creates about a 6 inch stain if after sitting for 2 nights and appears to be coming from the rear of the pan. What is a little odd is that this will be the 3rd time...

    Source for Rubicon flares?

    Does anyone know of a reliable source for factory Rubicon flares? Another option in 4.25” width could work as well. I’m not a fan of the wider 6” flares but need more coverage over stock. Part number: 82208136 Several places indicate that they have been discontinued while others show them as...

    Transmission delay going into Drive upon first start

    Hello All... I had this issue before and wanted to ask for some suggestions or feedback now that the issue appears to be returning. Recently, my 2001 Jeep with the 3spd auto (156,000 miles) started exhibiting a delay when shifting from Reverse into Drive. This only happens in the morning after...

    Currie or Savvy body lift?

    Hello All... after getting my 2 inch suspension lift last year (2.5 inches of lift) I am now shopping for a good body lift. Currie and Savvy are both highly regarded and personally I like that they use metal pucks that encapsulate the body mounts. The main differences that I can see are the 1...

    Rear bumper install (cannot get the bolt started)

    Hoping for some recommendations on this. I am installing a Warn rear bumper. I previously had it on but removed it to add some frame tie ins and ran into a problem. I cannot for the life of me get one of the bolts that I just removed threaded back in. This nut appeared to be off the first...

    Stripped Tailgate Screw - March Forward or Cut & Run?

    I might have pushed my thirst for upgrades a little too far with this one but being the one and only owner of my 2001 Sport, I feel like it deserves attention after 18 years of faithful service. After reading about the heavy duty MORyde hinges, I thought installing these would be a good idea...

    Should I have cut my losses and moved on with this frame rust?

    I have a 2001 TJ Sport that I have owned since new. Bought it with 17 miles on the odometer and now have about 155k. It is no longer a daily driver it but I love this thing and it is the one vehicle that I thought I would always keep. It lived part of it's life in Maryland but mostly on the...

    Did I pick the wrong back backspacing for 31X10.5 KO2s?

    Hello All... I am new here and hate to post another wheel/backspacing thread but I am seeing a lot of contradictory information. I just ordered a set of 31x10.5 KO2s with 15x8 inch wheels. The backspacing options were 3.75 or 5.29. The ideal backspacing range seems to be 4 - 4.5 inches which...
