    Hooke Road rear bumpers with spare tire carrier

    How heavy is your spare, and would you mind posting a few pics of the failure and how it latches, etc.?

    Where I can find metal retainer clips that hold the lightbulb in the dome light of the Jeep?

    You’ll have to replace the entire light housing… Or plan on soldering some wire.

    Where I can find metal retainer clips that hold the lightbulb in the dome light of the Jeep?

    Not sure which light you need parts for (front or rear), but complete assemblies for either are about $40 on ebay. I don't know where to get the internal components.

    Replacing Battery Terminals

    For "extra connections", these clamps work great because the cables are attached using lug-type terminals and they can be arranged on the clamp... And I chose to go with the marine version on the new battery that includes the accessory terminals.

    Replacing Battery Terminals

    I had a set of the clamps w/ multiple taps and found that they were not as good as old school version. I am now running these on the original cables. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09DKZRYZK/?tag=jkforum-20

    Recommended product to restore black trim and fender flares

    You missed my point. Yes, PC is different from paint, but most aftermarket manufacturers apply too thin of a coat of it, and it doesn't last... especially on edges, corners, seams, etc. Hence, buying a set of metal flares that have shitty PC on them isn't really an improvement over the...

    Recommended product to restore black trim and fender flares

    Except that most metal flares would be best served with a fresh top coat over how they come before installation... so the OP would be back to square one; flares that need to be painted! :ROFLMAO:

    Recommended product to restore black trim and fender flares

    Yes, it's our '03. I found the end caps (front & rear) on ebay about 8-9 years ago.

    Recommended product to restore black trim and fender flares

    Nothing can ‘restore’ the original color except new plastic, but I found a textured, black, spray paint at Home Depot that I used on the TJ splash guards, front bumper, running boards, etc. as well as several accessories/parts on my Harley and I’ve been very impressed with the way it retains the...

    Quiet aftermarket exhaust for 2012 Wrangler JK

    I bought a fairly inexpensive dual-out, 'sport' muffler for our 2015. It wasn't that bad when new, but nearly a year into it, it has increased in volume and aggravation. Next will be a single, that more closely matches the original.

    My 07 JKU Sahara is possessed

    You beat me to it! :ROFLMAO: OP, Before you replace them, give them a solid twist to see if they are actually tight on the post, or just tight on the clamp.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Beautiful rig @Dirty Dog ! Does that sliding top eliminate the freedom panels and make the entire top one piece (vs 3 pieces w/ freedom panels)?
