Hey everyone,
Just wanted to reach out and say hello! I've been a long time follower of the forum, previous XJ owner but always had eyes for TJ's. I recently sold my daily and picked up a 2002 X Apex (107k odo), I'll post some pics in the coming weeks when it's not snowy and bleak here, and...
Help me decide on my 2 options: I have about 2.5 inches of lift installed by PO. Rear trackbar is stock and bushings look worn out. I don't have a SYE.
1- ARB relocation bracket (I already have it) and a new MOOG DS1461 trackbar: about $80 cost.
2- JKS rear adjustable trackbar OGS151 and no...
Hey all,
I found this while under the Jeep today. It looks as though it was a part of the forward suspension/spring that came loose then a previous owner attempted to cable tie it in place (for rattling etc). Any clue as to what this part is?
Below are two pictures for comparison, left and...
Ok so I just installed a new track bar and track bar bracket in the Jeep. I have a teraflex high steer setup and a rough country drop pitman arm. I am not trying to get into a debate about having a drop pitman or not or what you think about RE track bars and there brackets or any other brands. I...

Hello all,
Have a ‘97 TJ, 135k miles that’s been in the family since new. Older brother put a 2.5” body lift on it in the early 2000’s. Now it’s mine, and I want to put new suspension, coils and shocks. What’s my best move here?
Would like a Fox, Metalcloak- type kit. If I do a 2.5” suspension...
Hi everyone. I have a 2004 Wrangler Rocky Mountain Edition. This is not my first project car but it is my first Jeep, so I'm still somewhat new to the Jeep community.
When I purchased the Jeep back in August 2020, it had a 2.5" Rough Country suspension lift on 31s. It's done the job for the...

-Currently has a 4" lift and 35" tires.
-Has stock front/rear track bars, control arms, etc. Is stock geared from the manufacturer.
-Already replaced U joints on the front axle...
I have an 02 TJ with a 4” rough country lift that has never given me any issue whatsoever. Well recently I’ve noticed this horrible bang/clunk that feels like It’s coming from right under the center console area and it is quite loud when driving on a gravel road or a bump. I went hunting this...
Hey all, I’m thinking about doing a 1.5inch suspension spacer lift on my 98 TJ. I’m currently running 31’s on stock suspension. What have been your experiences with spacer lifts? Pros and cons? I’m wanting to go that route and not a full suspension lift for cost reason.

Working on my first car project and installing a 2” lift since the original shocks and springs were shot. I so far have new shocks and springs ready to go but is there anything else I need? Bump stop extensions? Replacing broken coil insulators? Could use all the help as im new to working on...
I am looking at swapping out my ball joints this weekend.
Is it absolutely necessary to have to remove the axle to remove the ball joints, or is there another way.
If I have to remove the axle, is it as easy as sliding it out and sliding back in?
Do I have to mark the spline and put it...
I have a 97 sport, with a 2.5" Rough Country lift kit, (shocks&springs) and i have lowered the transfer 1" due the pinion angle.
I wanna install a 1.25" BODY lift to get a 3.75" in total and wear 33s with enough flex space, but will I need something more than that?
The ride right now is...
Hey fellow jeep owners,
I'm about to embark on the classic front end suspension rebuild in my 03 Wrangler and I would appreciate if someone could review my parts list with me. I just want to double check that I'm not missing any bushings or specifics pieces. I'm currently running a 2.5 inch...
Hey Guys,
I recently bought an '03 Wrangler SE. I've already tackled a handful of things that need attention (calipers, pads, rotors) but most important is Death Wobble (confirmed, definitely Death Wobble). I've dug around a bit here and already found a litany of information, much appreciated...
Hey all, had my jeep for almost two years now and I’m looking for feedback on improving my ride quality off road. I know the short wheel base is a big factor but it would be nice to be able to go out and keep up with my buddies in their trucks.
