I was wondering if people are still using Red Line transmission fluid in their 5-speeds. For a while everyone was talkling about it but I haven't seen any posts recently. I'll probably be changing the transmission fluid soon and was wondering what the consensus is.

anyone know the proper gear oil/necessary additives for the diffs on a stock 98 Sahara?

It looks like I may need to replace/rebuild the rear differential on my 98 Sahara. I've never really done any drive train internals work so I was curious if anyone had a link to a detailed, step by step outline of what would go into it so I can see if I'm up to the task. I had a shop rebuild...

On the way into work this morning, I was cruising down the road in my 98 Sahara and the speedo and tach went to zero and the airbag light came on. All the rest of the guages seemed to be fine. It happened twice on the way in and after about 3 minutes of sitting at zero, they both returned to...

hey all, my girlfriend's 98 Sahara has been acting weird during low speed maneuvers when the thing has been run for a while. It's seems to happen especially after highway driving. But during low speed turns, like pulling into a parking space, it makes this weird noise and I think I've noticed...

Loking For a air compresor hey all. every time i turn the wheel to the left on my TJ (high speed, low speed, no speed) there's a loud pop or click that comes from somewhere in the front end. I've checked the sway bar and tie rods visually and everything seems tight. Any thoughts on what me...

I was just curious about how difficult a job it would be for me to install a new exhaust on my 97 TJ from header to tailpipe. I have a pretty decent set of hand tools, I can get a couple power tools, working on the ground with jacks/jack stands, probably outside, with some experience installing...

Got an open driveway/garage in Denver, CO? Thought maybe we could get a forum going where people list their favorite mechanics. Maybe we could divide it up by state or region. It's hard to find a good person to work on your car so maybe by doing this we could all find that person as well as...

Denver mechanics? Hey all. I'm looking for someone here in Denver that might let me use their garage or driveway to work on my TJ. I'll supply the tools and the beverage of choice if you let me use your space. I'm an apartment dweller with no where to do so much as change my oil. I'm used...

RE: Transfercase rattle on a 99 TJ Hey all. My TJ has been making some weird noise for about a week. It pretty much sounds like a steam locomotive whenever I get up to speed. I think it's something in the drive train but I'm not really sure. It definitely varies with speed. Almost like a...

my TJ seems to be making some kind of whining/whirring noise from underneath somewhere. it seems to get higher the faster I go...i.e. it seems to be independent of engine speed and what gear I'm in. could it be u-joints or my diffs? just had the fluid replaced in the diffs and it doesn't seem...

alcan springs when I turn on my right turn signal and my headlights are off, the dash and radio blink as well as the right arrow but the tail light still blinks. if I turn my headlights on the right turn signal display on the dash stays lit up constantly and when I turn the right turn signal...

I'm moving to Denver in a week and a half and might end up towing my Jeep behind the Uhaul. If I end up with one of those tow dollies that gets the front two wheels off the ground is there anything I need to do besides put the transfer case in neutral. U-Haul's site said something about...

has anyone used/heard of these tires. i local shop has them on sale for $80/tire and i can't find any information on them.

so after putting the new track bar on my jeep last night I decided to lube the chassis. well when I got to the passenger side ball joint on the knuckle the thing would not take grease. I really had to push hard on the handle of the gun to get it to go in. It seems to have taken a bit, but...
