    Wipers Front Acting Up: 2011 JKU

    I've done some searching and although there are many discussions on wipers it's still unclear to me the solution. Wipers don't always park Wipers sometimes intermittent doesn't work One time they wouldn't stop. I see several write ups of people replacing the motor and the entire arm...

    Calibrating HVAC door motors?

    If it's not OEM it will not work. My mechanic claims he's bought a few through his supplier that work...but I'm skeptical I believe him. I tried 3 different Amazon units from Dorman to China-Unknown-Junk and ONLY the OEM worked w/o skipping and/or throwing codes. I had to swap with another one...

    Anyone recognize this random part banging around inside my cab?

    Ah...I was thinking f-panel. I now understand what it is. It came off the railing of the bed and the Torx goes into that. Wonder if any other fell off.

    Anyone recognize this random part banging around inside my cab?

    That's not a bad guess. I little smaller then I would think but it's got the right holes and shapes...will have a look!

    Anyone recognize this random part banging around inside my cab?

    I've had a 2011 JKU for some time. It originally came with soft top but I only got the hard top and since then I put on a Bestop Glide NX myself. Today while cleaning under the rear seat I found this which does look like some type of top part....wondering if it's from the OEM or something off my...

    Wrangler wont start or stalls after head gasket repair

    $3500 dead gasket...that's near a new long block with my mechanic, good grief. Without codes it's hard to assist. He should have codes somewhere.

    JKU: recommended shocks for 1.5" leveling

    Got an almost brand new setup of Rubicon wheels/tires (32.7") for free from a buddies new Gladiator purchase going on a 2011 JKU (Sahara). I'm also considering a 1.5" leveling kit and the shocks are probably due from their age as well as the leveling kit. On occasion I'll be pulling a jet ski...

    what is the white corrosion under mirrors?

    Buying a buddies 2011 JKU and sorting through the "Small things" together. We were talking bout this white corrosion coming from behind the mirror mount and dripping onto the hinges...specifcially on the driver side. Reminds me of mineral sediment buildup and if so can it be cleaned with such...

    Anyone found an aluminum thermostat housing for 3.8?

    Looking to replace t-stat and figured I'd do the housing too...all look like cheap plastic and if I'm going to buy OEM I thought I would look for alum, but don't see such a beast. Anyone bought/found one? Thx.
