    Wheels and Tires

    Hankook ATs on Rockstar wheels. Set of 5 325/60/18 E Rated These have been incredible tires for our Jeep. Great all around tire. All five have been rotated every 5,000 miles. Currently have 30,000 miles with at least that much left (look at the wear bars in the photos). These tires are quiet on...

    I'm OCD

    Paramount front bumper purchased with black finish. LoD rear bumper purchased with black finish. Poison Spyder sliders purchased with black finish. From a distance they all look good, but close up I can definitely see they are all a different shade of black. I wish I'd purchased them all raw...

    Misfire

    I have a 98 XJ with the 4.0. Running rough. Throwing misfire codes. I've changed the coil, distributor cap, rotor, plugs, wires and O2 sensor. If anything it's running worse. The only thing I can think of is the timing chain since it has 224,000 miles. Anyone have any ideas before I tackle the...

    Every light on the dash

    I had to remove the front bumper to fix a stupid little plastic bracket which broke when I hit a deer. In the process I had to unwire the winch and lights. Every thing went back the same way it came off. In the process I added a couple LED rock lights (lights on the bumper and rock lights have...

    All off road capabilities are GONE!

    I guess we're going to be cancelling our New Year's trip to Moab. On our way home last night Bambi destroyed any and all off road capabilities of our Jeep. Our short lived Jeeping life was extremely enjoyable. We made some great friends, we wish them and all Jeepers well. Carry on without us...

    New Noise

    I finally replaced the front driveline and removed the exhaust spacers. Y pipe was rattling against the transfer case skid. Now that noise is gone I'm hearing a "clunk" from the right rear. It happens over bumps, but I can also hear it accelerating from a stop sign, or when I brake. CA bushings...

    Death Wobble Again

    I replaced the ball joints in February with crown. Everything has been fine since, until this weekend. Two separate episodes of death Wobble. It's looking like I'll have the money for the Trail Leader package in February or March, so I don't want to spend a lot of money on ball joints or other...

    ZJ or WJ Issues to look for.

    My son is wanting to purchase a ZJ or WJ. His budget is $6,000, including any mods. What years should we be looking at, any specific issues we need to avoid or be looking for? Thanks for the help.

    Alone and SxS

    This guy went out on Hell's Revenge alone (wife and kids were with him), decided to attempt The Escalator in his Land Cruiser. Luckily he just slid down into the hole and crushed his rear quarter panel, very easily could have rolled all the way down. They sat there for 3 1/2 hours before we came...

    Rice Rocket

    I had some time today so I went through all the bolts and nuts, checking torque, then greased everything. While going over the bolts on the rear bumper, noticed the muffler was so close to the cross member that it was melting the wires going to the trailer light connection. I put the exhaust...

    E or D Rated Tires?

    We have to stay with the 18" wheels we have. Two friends have sliced their sidewalls this summer (One on Ds not aired down, the other Cs aired down to 15psi) so I'm worried about sidewall strength. Most of what I'm seeing for tire choices is this: 37/12.5/18 E Rated 37/13.5/18 D Rated D rated...

    Mysterious Leak

    I've been getting a water leak for the last week or so. Haven't noticed it previously. I haven't given it much thought, as it's summer and figured it was condensation from the AC. Then I realized we've had the top off all summer, and haven't even been running the AC, and upon further inspection...

    Things I learned at EJS

    I'm choosing to put this post here rather than under Destinations because I plan on swearing, maybe a lot. 1) The price of the build has absolutely no correlation with the ability of the driver. I witnessed several big dollar Jeeps using winches and straps where I went right through. I have open...
