Not something you see every day. I didn’t think it looked too bad. https://www.lot99llc.com/vehicle-details/2012-jeep-wrangler-4x4---jk8--truck-conversion-hard-top-suv-f7963f8c92f5784ab747e3a1dc45c338

We went out to Parie City SVOP for some wheeling. First time the 16 year really got a chance to try a few things and learn. Dad did a lot walking. Let the wife do a few more difficult obstacles but was busy moving rocks and spotting.

So my son has a 2007 JKU, 3.8L, I think around 60,000 miles. A little over a year ago CEL came on. Based on the codes I told him it might be a O2 sensor and we could look at it. He endedup taking it down to a mechanic we use, they got the light off but said the cat’s are bad and needed to be...

Yes I know, this is the JK forum, but just had to share with my “friends”. I’ve been looking around and ended up finding this beauty. One time owner, 112,000 miles, 6sp. They claim they primarily used to travel from their place in the Auburn area to their cabin at Shasta Lake. The underside...

So the wife’s JK (2015) has this switch at the drivers side hood area. My JK same year does not have one, neither does my son’s 2007, nor do I think my daughters 2017. The bracket says PCM and TIPM, the switch is at the TIMP slot. No i haven’t tried tracing the wires, guess I should do...

Anyone have experience with these type of door hangers? Looks like a decent option, but I am a little concerned about it damaging the window sill after handing for a while.

I know a lot of people have had issues with the plastic bushing breaking and wanting an upgrade. Highly recommend this part from Novak. My son replaced the bushing at the shifter location, still need to crawl underneath and do the one at the TC, but it’s the same part. You can see in the...

A couple of months ago I stop at the store to pick up a few things and come back out to the Jeep, open the door, hop inside and see the door bezel trim is broken out of the door panel. I think ”that is odd, someone try and break into the Jeep with a hanger or something. But I don’t see any...

Has anyone used these as a replacement for the stock transfer case bushing replacement? Looks like a decent option and the sons 2007 bushings went out, but cable seems fine. https://www.novak-adapt.com/catalog/shifters/jk-cable-shifter-upgrade-kit

Did a little checking and couldn’t find the answer. Does anyone know if Bosch is OEM for ignition coils? Had some warranty work done and since her jeep just hot a 100K had them change the plugs and coils while apart. Plugs are NGK so that seems fine. The mopar has a different part number...

Antone use Raxiom LED Headlights? I am thinking about getting these. Been thinking about switching to LED’s and with my copper color these might look okay and the price doesn’t seem too bad...

Our JK’s have a an aftermarket digital gauge system. The wife’s yesterday come up with pending P0306 code - cylinder 6 misfire. No MIL light or anything yet and just listed as “pending” but doing a little research. Per service manual I have the first step is to scan for Cylinder Fuel...

Look at replacing the factory 730N radio. The Jeep has the Alpine with subwoofer speaker system. System for sound is fine to me, but the radio is acting up and does odd things. Crutchfield seems to have a fair amount of “Boss” radios at a decent price, but I don’t know much about them. Do...

For those that saw my post, four-wheeling this weekend I busted the rear window and damaged the hard top. I am considering getting soft-top instead of replacing it with a hard top (if not covered by insurance most likely will get a soft top). I like the idea of being able to just retract the...

(note maybe this should be posted somewhere else.) There seems to be a lot of questions about lifts so thought I’d do this write up of my experience with the AEV 2.5” Dualsport Lift. We have the lift on two different 2015 JK’s with similar setups. This write up is specifically for a 2015...

I’ve always wheeled in a manual, currently have the 6sp. My wife and son each have a auto. The son has the 3.8 with auto, which has D, 1, and 2. It actually has 4.10‘s in it. While he is learning I am thinking the jeep should get better traction then it is with minor rock crawling. Then it...

Does anyone know about FVP Batteries? I am not sure I’ve heard of them myself. They have them on RockAuto for a good price, 48AGM battery, 140 minutes reserve, 760CCA. While I want a reliable battery at the same time don’t want to spend a fortune on one either. We each carry portable...

Feel a little dumb posting this but here it goes. Is there any risk of increased wear and tear, increased temperature on gear oils etc when using 4L for extended periods of time? The reason I ask is I had YJ for about 9 years, four wheeled a fair amount and used 4H and 4L depending on the...

I’ve the four nuts off, dust cover is loose, diff cover is off. Seems like with a little pressure on the end of the shaft the axle should pop loose / slide out but it is budging and don’t want to ruin anything in the diff. Any thoughts? Doesn’t seem like there is a pin or anything that holds...

I think I know the answer, just not sure I want to do. Wife’s JK needs rear brakes. It is a 2015 JKU Sahara, 96K miles. Rear brakes need to be replaced. Question is should I replace the wheel bearings and seals? We are third owner and I have no idea what type of use it saw. Overall the...
