Picked up this 2006 LJ (6speed, 177k miles) for around 5500 last May. Was bone stock and had sun damage to the pain on the passenger side with a rusted through front fender and two holes through the passenger rear quarter. Spent most of last year on the mechanicals (brakes, wheel bearings, new...

Hey guys! New here and looking for some advice. I’ve seen a few threads about some similar situations to mine but I’d like some more exact advice. I recently bought a 1999 2.5 5 speed with 4.10s off of a kid with a 3” body lift on 31x10.5 15s. Obviously I want to get rid of that much body lift...

After some “light” research on the inter-webs I decided to just ask here because who knows best than you guys, am I right? Is there such a thing as a “safari hardtop” for the TJs??? I see them for the JLs and such but not our beloved TJs running a normal cab.. Thanks

Hey guys, first time here and looking forward to it. 1997 Jeep TJ with the horrible 2.5, NP 231, AX5 4" Suspension lift not a great one just a Superlift that didn't come with longer Control arms so I'll be getting those soon. 33 12.50 15 Mud King 2 KC Daylighters on mirror brackets 2 KC...

My Jeep's plastic fenders have seen better days. Been torn of multiple times due to being too bulky for my 35's. I'm planning to make the switch to steel fenders next month and looking for an affordable option. Does anyone have experience with the EAG brand name. They sell some nice looking...

Hello all! I have loved Jeeps since my first vehicle back in 2006 when I turned 16 and got my first TJ. I have had 9 Jeeps total since then, and 6 of them have been Wranglers! I have learned a ton from each and every one of them, and finally aquired my “ideal” Jeep. I am ready to build it up to...

Where can I buy these curved TJ fenders? TIA

First off I would like to apologize if there are any other threads that already covered this topic I was having trouble searching them. So long story short I purchased two Jeeps for an absolute steal 1 Jeep is a 1998 TJ with the 4.0 and a 5-speed transmission with roughly 70,000 miles problem...

Chapter 1 - The Early Years My TJ build story started decades ago, and very much continues through today... Growing up, I had always wanted a Jeep, but the stars never aligned for me to get one. It wasn't until I was in my 20's that I got my first one when I had the means (i.e. $$$) and the...

Okay so to start off, I have a clean 1997 Jeep Wrangler Sport in Citron Pearl (4.0L with 5spd manual). My mom bought it new in 97 and has babied it ever since. I started driving it around 87k and it is now nearing 92k and now that I have my license and a job I am able to start doing some mods...

Well I know that it’s not “preferred” but is there anyone else out there doing it. I was thinking about doing it and just seeing what I felt was weaker and going about upgrades then!

My wife (then girlfriend) comes from a family of wheelers. Her dad is a EJS trail leader, drives a monster YJ, Grandpa and uncle both have JKs. I went to EJS with them one year, and knew the only way to get the girl was to get a Jeep. So, for a wedding present, I got her a 97 TJ (2.5L). Came...

I'm new to this forum but have used it for about a year. I'm a freshman in college so funds are low but whatever isn't used on food and school is used on my jeep. Her name is Rooster because when I got her she didn't have a working horn which turned out being the relay. I bought a relay, she...

Wide Open Design has been in the Jeep scene for a while. I grew up watching WOD Jeeps crawl all over GreyRock ORV, Morris Mountain ORV, and other trails throughout Alabama. There is no doubt that their work is some of the best in the off road industry. WOD revolutionized the GM 14 bolt front...

I was doing some searching around a couple days a go and found this awesome website. It basically gives you a build sheet for your jeep by entering your VIN number. Their was no posts like this so I thought I should start a thread about it. It's also on a official jeep site! Here is the...
