finally got my dream jeep exactly how i wanted it and it now looks like its going to be totaled due to the front axle and frame being bent. it was a 2004 LJ with 55k original miles and a clean title with no previous accidents. I've never had to go through this with an older car so i would...

I didn’t plan on selling the red LJR. Honestly, I was just wrestling with the idea of redoing half my build and posted on Facebook looking for some guidance. I wasn’t prepared for the flood of people wanting to buy it. I had a number in mind, the “if someone offers this, it makes sense to start...

I am looking to install 4” springs on my 2004 LJ which has a 2.5” EMU lift already. Is there a preference on brand, constant coil and should I use a taller spring in the rear being an LJ so that is level?

Good morning folks, I am new to the forum and seeking wisdom from the all-knowing members. BACKSTORY: I am 23, and I live in Northern Virginia, an bought my first 06'tj X last December in PA. I have learned a lot since then about what I would have rather had/ should have looked for instead...

Hey yall I’m trying to change the ball joints on my LJ. I can’t seem to get the rotor off. I’ve gotten all the necessary bolts off. I’m wondering if I have to take off the wheel spacer? This thing is no budging. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hello everyone. I recently bought my first ever Jeep. It's a 2005 Unlimited LJ 4.0 6-speed with 40k miles on it. I'm pretty stoked and have a lot of plans for it (Feel free to leave any suggestions on what I should add or upgrade). Like I said, this is my first ever Jeep that I've owned. I...

So I finally hit the first trail in my LJ after almost 2 years of owning it. I live really close to LBL state park and turkey bay OHV trails. I saw OnX off-road had a Labor Day sale and got the membership. I found an easy trail (Persimmon beach trail 2/10 difficulty) and hit the road. It was...

I would like to start by saying that I did not build these fenders. I just thought that they were too cool not to post. I love the way that the diy high lines look and have watched just about every video of people attempting to make the nicest set. Most people don’t go into enough detail or the...

I'm new to the forum, so I apologize in advance if this isn't where to post this. I'm looking for some opinions on this pattern I just ran. I'm regearing my LJ to 4.88 yukon gears and installing an ARB locker in the rear. The pictures attached have the latest patterns i just got and below are...

Hey everyone I just wanted to get some thoughts and ideas on my LJ. I’m sure these types of posts have been beat to death. Anyways, I’ve had this for a couple years now and it’s been great. Silver 05 LJ with 206k miles. PO installed 4inch RC lift (not my idea) and came with 31inch tires I...

I’ve been telling myself for years I’d finally get this written down to help organize and explain how and why I did certain things with my Jeep. Quick backstory: it’s my first car—I got it when I was 15—and I’ve never stopped loving the damn thing. I front-halfed and back-halfed it while daily...

Back in '22 I made the mistake of buying someone else's project Jeep on FBMktplace. After 2 years of fighting the combination of a patchwork frame and a myriad of electrical gremlins, I finally got the shits and decided I would start hunting for a project to call my own. Around the turn of the...

My muffler rusted out and I managed to find a company that makes a stainless OEM style exhaust for the LJ. For those who don't know, the LJ muffler is slightly longer than the TJ one. I tried putting a TJ muffler on but it sounded worse than my 20 year old one with holes in it. Our Canadian...

Good Afternoon All, Wanted to get opinions on the cost of this AEV built LJ. Of course I love what I am seeing - but wanted others in this forum to weigh in. Would you pay $45k? Here is high level detail: Description: "AEV Built HEMI LJ!!! Only 14K Miles .. 5.7L HEMI V8 .. AEV Heat Reduction...

A couple weeks ago, I purchased for my wife a 2005 LJ with 112k on the odometer. One of the reasons I bought it was the mileage and all the accessories that came on it. My dilemma is, I have no idea how I can tell if and what lift kit has been installed. I see the shocks are non-OEM as well as...

Hello everyone! This is going to be a picture heavy documentation of my experience as an LJ owner. Starting off with the LJ as purchased, on August 15th of 2024: It's a 2006 Unlimited Rubicon, 6 speed, with factory 4.10 gears. It had 2.5" OME front and rear coils (the rears were the softest...

My Jeep Wrangler LJ Rubicon’s rear differential carrier is damaged (locked and won’t unlock from the limited-slip gears). Can you recommend a place where I can get a replacement carrier or possibly upgrade ?

Hello from Tucson AZ. This is out first LJ (2005 Impact Orange), our second TJ (2005 TJ Mountain Editon), and our fifth Jeep (the first three were: 1978, 1983, and 1985 CJ7s). We're looking forward to participating in this forum. Thanks for being here. Jay and Turi
