Anyone have a set of these laying around their garage taking up space?

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.

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...

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...

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...

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...

I gave the one finger wave

I recently stumbled across an article the was stating 35 spline shafts in a D44 is bad thing, and the author recommended no higher than 30. I thought I pinned the article so I could read it more carefully later, but now cant find it. The just of the article was that putting 35 spline shafts in a...

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...

I hit pretty hard and bent the cross member. It's causing the little forward bracket to hit the exhaust pipe. I assume when I put a new after market front driveline in, I can remove the exhaust spacers and then the exhaust pipe won't touch any longer. My question is, will this damage to the...

Are there any plans for a Wayalife meet, trail ride during EJS this year?

A local off road club just posted a picture and request for help. Their two wheel drive truck is stuck and need help. Their location is in a very rural area. Some guys have answered the call and are heading out to the rescue. All I can think is 1) know your rig and it's capability 2) never go...

Me looking for a stock front driveline, to hold us over until we get the PR44, then I'll replace the driveline. Current one is going out. Me: (looking at a post on a local Facebook Jeep group) Is that the front driveline, and is it still available? Seller: I don't really know what a driveline...

2015 front driveline is going bad. Looking for a cheap stock one, with low miles. I just need to buy a few more months, I'll replace it when I swap the axle. I'm in Utah.

I've known that replacing the front drive shaft is highly recommended after a lift. I did install the exhaust spacers, but I think it's time for a new one. What say you?

While trying to figure out the wobble on our Jeep, we had several shops look at and try to diagnose the issue. One buddy who has an alignment shop noticed the toe was a little too far out, so we adjusted them in a bit. I finally had time to install the Crown ball joints, and knew immediately...

Oil leak! The leak on our 98 XJ has been getting consistently worse. Saturday the starter went out, during the repair I could see the oil was coming from the oil filter adapter. I replaced the 3 o rings, which I got from Mopar, and the leak is now worse. Also, after replacing the o rings, the...

Bigger is always better, right?

Wife: When is the last time you watched porn? Me: Um....not really sure... I can't remember. Why? Wife: So maybe like 18 months? Me: Ya, maybe. Not sure. Why? Wife: So, about the time you became obsessed with building our Jeep was the last time you watched porn? Me: Obsessed? Wife: I think you...

I want 37s! I picked up the following, new in the box, for $100: G2 rear chromoly axle shafts, 4.88 ring and pinon, master install kit. Ball joints are gone, Crown being delivered tomorrow for $170 I would really like to put EVO gussetts in while the ball joints are being replaced $60 plus...
