    My new baby

    Picked this up yesterday. Traded in my '08 (clutching was killing my back, who knew). I LOVE the Saharas! T

    “Doors Off” Mirrors

    I bought these tube doors just to have mirrors in the right place. tube doors Some reviews complain about loose mirrors, rattling, etc. I have zero issue with mine. I actually like them better than the factory mirrors. I like the look of the tube doors as well. There are better doors for sure...

    Clutch Noise

    So, I started hearing this rattle noise coming from the clutch somewhere. I've been doing reading and searching etc, and it sounds like it's either pilot bearing, throw-out bearing, or input shaft bearing. I've read some conflicting comments regarding which it could be. Taking short drives (15...

    How does the Jeep know to turn the dome light on?

    I will have to double check, but I'm 90% sure it was the yellow w/ white stripe. Driver side, I tapped into the same wire at the instrument panel. Passenger side, I hit the harness at floor level. They work great! Green LEDs for floor and one in dome! Tim

    SOLD Bestop all-new trektop nx soft top 2dr (i think?)

    Selling my Bestop off of my 2008 JK. See the ad below. Looking to sell locally as I don't have the stuff to pack and ship it, which means it would all have to be bought, which means it would be expensive! I believe it's the Bestop ALL-NEW TREKTOP NX SOFT TOP 2DR, though I'm not sure. It was on...

    VIN Check Site is Down

    For those who know about Jeeps VIN check website, it has been down for a bit. At least a week I believe. I found another way to get your build sheet on another forum. Go to the following URL and add your VIN to the end of the address. https://www.jeep.com/webselfservice/BuildSheetServlet?vin=...

    Parking Brake Cable Adjustment

    Hello all! Is there a way to 'equalize' the parking brake cables? I just had to replace my handle assembly due to the metal 'catch' breaking where the cables sit in their slots. If that makes sense, lol. That's when I noticed my cables are different lengths and I'm thinking that's why my lever...

    Should Jeep Wranglers wave to Gladiators?

    I dunno. Before there were Wranglers, there were CJ's. In that family was the CJ-8/Scrambler. The Gladiator was Fiat's attempt to bring that back, I suppose. Like all new Wranglers, they've missed the mark and they're getting further and further from what a 'Jeep' was. It seems to sell, so good...

    How much oil will come out when removing oil filter?

    Yeah, I'm doing it regardless. I know it can't be much and I'll find out this weekend. I'm only around 700 miles into my last change, so I guess I just don't want to be wasteful! lol My new hardtop is arriving soon so I'll be wiring things up for that and want to get the gauges installed at the...

    How much oil will come out when removing oil filter?

    Silly question, I know, but how much oil will come out when I remove the oil filter from my 3.8? I know it sits above the pan and I know some will drain out from the engine. I'm just curious if anyone has done this, lol. I'm installing a plate between filter and block to facilitate an oil...

    How does the Jeep know to turn the dome light on?

    That all being said, does the Freedom Top have any lights on it? Tim

    How does the Jeep know to turn the dome light on?

    Yeah, I know how to work them. I just didn't know where it was getting the signal that the doors were open. My JK is pretty plain, having just a dome light. I plan on adding footwell and cargo lights and I'm trying to figure out the best way to wire it up. Thanks! Tim

    How does the Jeep know to turn the dome light on?

    How exactly does the jeep know to turn on the dome light when the door(s) are opened? I'm used to seeing a button/switch, but don't see a thing now. Am I overlooking something? Tim

    Cold air intake options?

    Dayum! I believe a nerve was hit! lol. That being said..... I agree 1000% with this. It's simple internet myth that the manu's have capitalized on. That's why EVERYTHING states "Up to...". Kind of like your internet provider! Tim
