  1. Marketplace JK rehab

    I made the bad decision and picked up a sh!tbox JK off of marketplace for a driver/beater. Its 2007 2 Door hardtop. super basic. The oil pan was laying in the back seat and new pack of rod bearings were in the passenger seat. It had eaten #5 pretty bad and killed the rod bore. I was shown...

    “Bolt on” TJ long arm recommendations?

    I'm looking for suggestions and experience on complete "bolt on" long arm setups for TJ's. It doesn't literally have to only be bolt on, but what I mean is I'm not interested in a Motobilt belly section and fabbing my own arms and sourcing my own brackets etc. Looking for a pre-sorted kit...

    97/01 TJ Rehabilitation

    So, I have a partial build on here for my 1990 Wagoneer. Well, I had told my now wife that if I hadn't finished it "this year" (4 years ago) I would sell it. In all the time she's been with me we've managed to go hit the trails...twice. So I made the painful decision to sell the Wagoneer, let...

  5. JK/JL, how do they do on long trips?

    I want to get another 4wd that I can somewhat comfortably take on longer trips to go to places like Moab and Ouray for light wheeling and cruising forest roads. I'm curious what life might be like getting a JK/JL and if there's even a difference between the two? I'm only looking at 2012 and up...

    2025 2 Door JL Sport Highway Friendly Build

    I finally bit the bullet and bought a Jeep after many years of flirting with the idea of it. Taking a wheeling/camping trip up to Leadville in my father's 2023 Bronco Badlands is what really got me considering a new 4x4. It was really nice not having to deal with a trailer and being comfortable...

    CJ-3A turd revival

    Picked up this ‘51 3A and 50ish M38 that a buddy had for a very reasonable price. (800 beans for boffum) The M38 is well molested and is really only good for parts in my opinion. But some purist will get in their jimmys over it. Another buddy’s dad wants a flattie, and we’re trying to...

    Has anyone used High Impact transmission and gear?

    I've got the NSG370 in an 05 Wrangler behind the 2.4 that's eventually going to have to be rebuilt. Looking for a shop with a good reputation. I keep seeing this company pop up but I haven't found anyone that's used them. Any recommendations?

    JL Frame Chop Bumper and A/C Condenser Options

    I am designing up my own frame chop bumper similar in design to the Next Venture Motorsports/Lite Brite bumper, and the A/C condenser is in the way for pushing the winch back for maximum clearance. I can get another ~2" if I can get the condenser out of the way. Next Venture Motorsports offers...
  12. After market controller for AW4 auto...

    OK so I used to run an AW4 in my Scrambler, I wanted a 4 speed transmission. I used the AW4 as it bolts right up, yes I needed an adapter for the Dana 300 (which I still have). The problem was that I (we) couldnt get the Stock control box to work, so it always skipped 2nd gear, up and down. But...

    Any of you early CJ guys able to help me out? I’ve gotta build these out of ally for my DJ5 and stupidly I tossed my originals before taking measurements on them. The CJ5 should be the same and or exactly close enough. Length on the red, yellow and blue and the angle at the green of it ain’t...

    WY 1999 Jeep TJ gears/locker(s) 4.88 Dana 30/35

    Looking for used gears for a Dana 30/35, and possibly a locker(s) if you happen to have them as well. New sets are cheap enough enough, but I'm trying to do this as cheap as possible as it's just a once in awhile runaround rig.

    Gear pattern check!

    Ok, I've never done gears before but I'm far from mechanically inept. I've seen this done a bunch but never tackled it myself. Anyways, here's where I am. Front waggy (LP) D44 with Warn hubs, so it wont see lots of miles anyways. 4.56 thick cut Revolution gears. Backlash right near the max...
