    What is everyone asking for Christmas?

    Showing off my Christmas presents. I got a full set of flexible ratcheting wrenches, and that bi-directional ODB2 scanner I was looking for. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    84 CJ7 258 starter

    Check the oil and verify the level (make sure it's not empty). If it's hard to tun over by hand, pull the plugs and squirt some lubricant down there and wait a day or two, then try again.

    84 CJ7 258 starter

    Does the engine turn over at all, or are you just getting a click? You could try testing the starter out of the vehicle, hooking it up directly to a battery to see if it spins. From there, you could try to turn the engine over by hand to see if it's locked up.

    How (or do) you run a CB when offroading?

    The Jeep Jamboree requires GMRS - CB is not an option there, so I tend to think they know what they are doing. I picked up a set myself and paid for the license (GMRS technically requires a license). I ended up going with a handheld CB that can also mount to a full antenna. I like the GMRS...

    Check out this cool little endoscope for $5

    Earlier I had posted about changing my spark plugs, and it got me curious as to what my cylinders and top-end look like. I thought about buying one of the expensive endoscopes or cameras off of Amazon, but I ended up cheaping out. For $5 including shipping, I bought this USB camera off of...

    leaking from freedom panels

    I don't have your model of Jeep, but you may try removing the panels and cleaning the weather stripping well - possibly using some sort of rubber conditioner. Get a couple of pitchers of water and have someone pour it on the top while you watch inside. Maybe you could find the exact point...

    Just a heads up - if anyone is having problems with the Jeepz.com app, or Tapatalk, you may need to log out of the app and back in for it to work.

    leaking from freedom panels

    What year and model Jeep do you have? I know that when my Jeep gets soaked, I put a really strong fan / air circulator in the back seat pointed at the floor, that usually dries everything up. Not a good long term solution for you, but it works in a pinch.

    ford rear ends on jeeps

    Old thread I know, but I was just reading this. I wonder if the 7.5 came stock with disc brakes. That would be a plus. The 8.8 is a C clip axle, but the disc brakes keep a broken shaft from walking all the way out.

    What is everyone asking for Christmas?

    Two different families that I'm friends with have just caught Covid. It's going around again.

    What is everyone asking for Christmas?

    I'm getting a new bidirectional ODBII sensor that hooks into my phone. Probably not needed for my old TJ, but should be good for the wife's Highlander. What are you guys looking for?

    New Jeepz.com coming soon!

    Well, the new Jeepz.com is here! I'm still working out the bugs, but most things are up and running. if there are any issues, please let me know. The Jeepz.com app (AKA TapaTalk) should still continue to work as it has.

    What does this tire valve tool do?

    Do you screw the threaded part of the silver one into the valve stem to release air? That would make sense I suppose.

    What does this tire valve tool do?

    I've been putting together an offroad toolkit to take on an upcoming trip. One of the recommendations was to get some spare tire valve cores, as people often remove (and loose) them when airing down. I picked up this kit on amazon: Screwdriver style and the one with the blue center seem to...

    New Jeepz.com coming soon!

    I've got some exciting news - there is a new Jeepz.com on the horizon! Currently, we are running Vbulletin, a forum software from 2016. It has served us well, however many aspects of it are broken or failing. I've done my best to patch things, but it's a loosing battle. Now the good news -...

    Opinions on Skyjacker dual rate springs?

    After going for a couple of rides by myself I've decided this isn't a problem. I go offroading twice a year, and I'm just going to tell the boys to deal with it. That was a good catch on the bump stops. I never thought about that.

    Opinions on Skyjacker dual rate springs?

    You've totally got me there. The only time I get complaints are when I've got 3 or more people in my Jeep, and 220 is probably spot on.
