    Has the TJ reached classic car level?

    I'd agree that good to great condition, well optioned TJ's are stable to increasing in value. I found a lucky deal in the first month of Covid when the world was falling apart and got my clean 06 TJ Rubi with 34k miles from Florida for only $12,800. I bet I could make a quick sale at $20k, maybe...

    Is the multifuncton switch dependable

    I’m looking to do similar with some Ipf 968 lights. If I order that Amazon relay wiring kit and use the MFS to “trigger” the relay, do I also need to run the red power wire in the Amazon kit to the battery or am I using power from the original wiring harness? Additionally, did you have to cut...

    Stereo system upgrade

    I had the concrete floor poured thick enough for a future lift, but I'm in Indiana and love basketball!! If I installed a lift right now I wouldn't be able to play basketball with my friends and kids in the garage during the winter so it won't happen in the near future.

    Stereo system upgrade

    I didn't go as far as you in upgrades, largely to 1. keep a stock look/maintain what small trunk space there is, and 2. Budget. I am split on sound deadening under the carpet and in doors because I'm not sure I will get the real benefit as I only drive my Jeep in the summer with the top off...

    Stereo system upgrade

    Appreciate that! It was hard work, but we I use the space for working on cars, hanging with friends, and of course basketball! Here’s a couple other pics.

    Stereo system upgrade

    The brackets were included free from Crutchfield which is where the front speakers actually were bought. They sell the brackets pretty cheap on Amazon too. Jeep front speaker mounting bracket

    Stereo system upgrade

    Thank you. Just finished the garage last summer. It’s 30 x 40 and took me (and The Wife) about 2 years to build.

    Stereo system upgrade

    Thank you, You have a great set up too. I definitely think I would appreciate an 8” sub, but I wanted to keep it in the factory console location. I didn’t do the poly yet, but figure that’s an easy thing to go back and add

    Stereo system upgrade

    So a couple friends and I did stereo system upgrades recently (my buddy has the 95 Sahara in the background) I based the equipment on some suggestions on this board, budget, and desire to keep a factory look. I snapped some pics along the way, although not as many as I should have! Here’s the...

    New tires old date question

    I'm not sure, but I will be driving on them over the next 10 weeks they said it would take to get new ones in, so I doubt they will be able to be resold as new.

    New tires old date question

    Just an update- Called my local Discount Tire today and they almost immediately offered to order two new tires to replace the 3418 date code. They did say they are in short supply and it will be 10 weeks, but I consider it excellent customer service as they didn't squabble at all and told me...

    New tires old date question

    That does makes sense with so many sizes and styles to have a huge inventory to run through. The other two tires were date coded 1419 which didn't bother me as much.

    New tires old date question

    I'll sleep fine...but tires are expensive! and I want to make sure I get the value out of them, thanks for the compliment, I just picked up this 06 TJR about 3 weeks ago.

    New tires old date question

    Thanks, that's good to know. These tires will likely age out before they wear out as I likely wont be putting more than a couple thousand miles a year on them, but notice even Discount won't mount tires older than 6 yrs old. That would mean these tires are almost a third of the way through its...

    New tires old date question

    So I pulled the trigger and bought some new BFG MT KM3's today from Discount tire. BUT!! upon looking when I got home I noticed the date code of two tires is 3418, that's August of 2018 or almost two years ago. Should I accept this? Doesn't seem right to me. (
