Yeah but what about internals? All those yummy parts🤤 I know it using 2 sh*tboxes to make make one. But at least I'll have 1 sh*itbox.

That much I do know. That's why I was asking here. I've called around to a few dealers and get the same response. "We will gladly sell you one of our engines and install it for you. But being a dealer we cannot give you advise about how to repair you car. We have 3.8L V6 engines starting at...

I believe a better question would be what 3.8L V6 engines are compatible with my 08 JK? Does it have to come from a jeep or can I pull one from anything with a Mopar 3.8L V6? Assuming the 8th VIN digit matches?

Hey y'all. So my 08 JK just died. I need an engine. I know it has the 3.8, but I am willing to look at anything compatible with the 08 JK. As long as I don't have to do any heavy mods or f**k with it too hard to install. Stock everything at this point. So direct bold on. No muss. No fuss. If...

Ok guys. Laugh if you want, but I come from a situation where I didn't need to know much about clutches. I would go to the parts counter and ask for a clutch disc for a 19XX, Make, Model and some goon would hand me my part and I'd start turning wrenches. Now I'm getting into my own JK and...

I don't love the look of the OE hooks. They look as if they would bend somewhat easily if one were to pull too hard. Fine if you're pulling on road or at a slight angle on trail, but can't rip on 'em. They're maybe 1/2-3/4"? Should I just dust off my old mig welder and look up some bumper...

Stock. But where your hooks are is covered with the plastic cover. I'd have to cut to gain access.

I have an 08 JK. I've checked all ground wires. Pita to find every last one. But all are fine. I did have a short that sort of precipitated the issues. How do I verify that the PCM/ECU is the culprit? I don't want to keep throwing parts at it. I also don't want to have to go to the stealership.

Hey y'all. Got a bone stock 08 Wrangler X. Basic everything. It seems the only options it received was the premium sound system. Anyhoo, I'm looking to start upgrading and building (on the cheap for now). I can't really afford to buy big option upgrades. So I was wondering if anyone knew how to...

Yup battery is brand

Got a lot of mystery issues. Left turn signal sometimes works. Intermittent wipers gone. TPMS reads low on right rear tire (pressure good) All 4 O2 sensors went at once. Indicator lights flash when opening and closing doors. Alarm sometimes won't engage. Driver's window sometimes works #6...

First off, its a standard lead acid battery. It's only 4 months old. As I've said I had it tested. It will keep the charge for weeks (I've only had this issue for a month.) But the brand new battery is the the same way. All cables and connections are secure. I did have a shorting problem a few...

Hey y'all. So I have my stock (so far) 08 JK. All of the sudden it's draining power from the battery. I've had the alternator and battery checked. Both are fine. But I still have to jump it after 6 hours of sitting. Ignition off key out, I can hear various thing power up when sitting inside...

Hey y'all. I was wondering if anyone knows of any trails (paid or free) in the western NY area? Now that I finally have my dream vehicle I'd like to get into some trail riding.

Does anyone know what the military vehicle setting under headlight in jscan is for? Just curious. I've seen this setting in other vehicles.
