Need a little help identifying a part by name. The check engine light has been steadily on my 01 TJ since I bought it from a family member last month. I have no idea how long it had been on before that. The Jeep has been running fine, and I used the key-turn method today to get the error code -...

Mississippi does. $5 per year. Troopers are usually the only ones who enforce them because part of the $5 goes to their pension fund, so I've been told. Michigan, where I currently live, does not have them.

What part of the state are you from?

I bought a 10 year old TJ recently and took the doors off for the first time in her life. It took a lot of effort. The best advice I can pass along is open the doors to about 90 degrees to the body, lift with a steady force, no jerking, and wiggle the doors back and forth as you pull. When...

While I agree that higher standards for newer cars will certainly affect their performance and appeal to certain buyers, I view this as a good thing. The jeeps of 2025 may not look or run like ours, but higher mileages and better efficiency in the form of alternative fuels will have one major...

Thanks everyone. Guess I've got some things to check out this weekend. Terry, it is pretty close to the stop, and it has not been lifted. 'Night all. JW

01 TJ, 4.0 L, 3 speed auto trans. I have owned the jeep a month. I took it out the other night to run it through some 4 wheel drive tests, learning how to engage, disengage 4wd, etc. Shifting the TC from 2-hi to 4-hi works fine, and I know 4-hi works because I can get that torquey feel through...

Kill it with fire!

I think mine starting leaking from the pinion seal on the rear differential this weekend as well. I would post a pic except it's pretty much identical to one posted above. This is not something I want to try and tackle myself, and I was wondering where any of you would recommend I have it...

I've had batteries die slowly, losing one or two cells at a time that act like this, but if Autozone says it's good, then that doesn't seem likely. Sounds like there is a slow leak somewhere. In an older vehicle I had, if I took the keys out and wasn't careful, the switch would stay on...

There was a guy I went to high school with who drove an old mail jeep. Not nearly this nice though. I like the bench seat in the back. I say why not?

So keeping it in first with the 3 speed disables the hillhold?

I kind of like them, but I also like the retro styling going around right now (see also Dodge Challenger, Chevy Camaro). I looked into getting one a few years ago. The lack of full back doors and tight back seat were problems. I was looking to upgrade from my 97 Dodge Dakota to something better...

Welcome back from Afghanistan and thank you very much for your service to our country! I'm in the Detroit area - Royal Oak.

I'll be over in GR a couple days a week for work starting at the end of the month. Any good places to ride over there? I've heard it's nice. I've lived in the Detroit area for 2 years and haven't been to GR yet. JW

Really excited about this weekend. I went to Home Depot tonight and bought all the material and hardware to build a dolly/rack for my hard top. Also picked up a T-40 torx bit and broke loose all 6 bolts that hold the hard top on. I was worried because I don't believe the top had ever come off of...

Hernando. I went to State. Nice to see some MS folks here. I'm currently in Michigan, but I sure miss my home state.

I don't know man. I've never tried to jailbreak mine. I know people who have, and they've had some major problems - like phone not starting up, crashing, etc. I'm pretty sure ATT will not help you with any troubleshooting or other problems if you jailbreak the phone.

Happened to me on Sunday. Granted, I've only had my jeep for 2 weeks, but a gentleman in a white Wrangler waved in my direction at a redlight - I was turning left and he was stopped at the intersection. He waved and did a little wave back, I wasn't sure if he was definitely waving at me or not...

I've had an iphone 3g (that's 2 generations old compared to the iphone 4 for those of you keeping score at home) for over two years now. It has been dropped, submerged, kicked, thrown, and bitten (mostly by my two year old - really, the screen cover has bite marks in it). It has definitely taken...
