Hmmm, I'm sure there's typo here, but if not, I'm going to start capturing that 10 Gallons of water and 20 lbs of Carbon for every gallon of gas I burn! Being as a 20 oz bottle of water costs about $1.50 and Gas is $3.50 a gallon, and there are 6.4 20 oz bottles of water in every gallon, that...

I run a larger filter on our Motorhome, it's got an 8.1L GM V8 in it. Theoretically, the larger filter provides more filter material for longer life (won't clog as quickly) and the higher volume of oil should allow the oil to run cooler, thus lengthening it's useful life. The filter I use on our...

I whole heartedly agree, but my opinion is based on 32 years of "hands on" experience! :D

I have an idea, move the spot lights currently mounted on your fender to some windshield mounts and replace them with the old style Jeep turn signals. Should be able to find some from an old mail truck. Or find some aftermarket ones, something with the side markers incorporated like modified...

Yea, DUH! Thanks...

My Dad taught me the basics years ago. Have been doing my own tune-ups, oil changes, and minor maintence ever since. Mostly self taught on anything beyond that, and now that I have a Jeep to play with find myself doing more. Luckily, I have a son-in-law who is a mechanic, and his Dad was a...

Isn't the sports bar the plastic piece attached to the roll bar that contains the speakers and dome lights?

DAMN! That's one hot Jeep! Matches the driver's quite nicely...

I don't go that far, I just chalk it up to lack of understanding. I have not been a Jeeper than long, and if it hadn't been for this web site and a good mentor (friend with a Jeep), who knows how long it would have taken to figure out why other folks in Jeeps kept trying to get my attention...

My wife gets in just fine, she has a hard time getting out because she forgets to step over the threshold, unlike her car where it's flush with the floorboard! I'm really getting tired of going to her side of the Jeep and helping her up off the ground!

:agree:Hard to top that reply!

Get an extension, they make them straight and with different drops if you have a lift.

The Sahara is nice, I test drove the Mohave (essentially Sahara with lizard stickers and seatcovers). It was nice, but the first thing I noticed was it didn't drive like a Jeep! It was way smoother than mine, and the hydrolic clutch took some getting used to as well. First couple of shifts...

You can go to Advance Auto or AutoZone and ask them to pull the codes (The scan SteelHeadz is referring to). This service should be free and they can normally explain what the codes mean so you know where to start.

I only use pure synthetics and normally purchase what's on sale. I am more particular about the filter and tend to use Purolator or Wix.

I began seeing a trend where JK owners did not return the wave when 95% of the time TJ/YJ owners did, so I kind of stopped initiating the wave to JK owners. Just yesterday as I was heading out I saw an approaching JK, and figured, why bother... Wouldn't you know it, this guy gives me the wave...

Do you have the 4.0L 6? If so, as you face the engine there is a vacuum line about halfway back on the right hand side of the engine. Check to ensure it is securely attached. If it comes off the A/C will not work. I don't know if this is what you're experiencing or not, but it's worth...

Thanks! It's pretty odd the way the rail works, it's not like spark plug wires that clip onto the end of the spark plug, it's almost like the 4 bolts just hold the plug boots tight against the end of the spark plugs.

I'm getting ready to replace my spark plugs for the first time in my 2004 TJ, is there anything I need to know before I start? I noticed the spark plugs appear to be under a rail, that I'm assuming contains the coil packs. Are there aftermarket spark plug wire sets for the 04 TJ 4.0L? I have...

Was it a previous rental or lease? Normally rental companies don't invest in such niceties as 35" tires and aftermarket wheels! Good looking truck!
