    2001 TJ Wrangler door lock stuck again

    Hey guys. Been a while. My 01 is acting up again. Passenger door lock is stuck in locked position. It has happened to both doors before, and I've been able to spray WD40 down onto the mechanism to unstick them. No luck this time after several tries. I've currently managed to get the door panel...

    Can you consider a Jeep as a small truck

    Michigan classifies my Wrangler as a station wagon right now.

    Man it's cold!

    Negative 1 this morning in SE Michigan. Wind chill yesterday was -30 to -40. That plus 8-10 inches of snow Sunday makes for an icy commute this week (90+ miles a day for me), but the old girl (my TJ) doesn't seem to mind. Makes for a rough ride. Not going to lie, my back is pretty sore from all...

    Mississippi area

    I grew up in Hernando. Too bad I live in Michigan now or I'd go riding with y'all.

    Fiat to buy the rest of Chrysler

    I think Chrysler's quality has really up since Fiat bought controlling interest in the the company a few years back. I hope that trend continues. I live in SE Michigan, so the Big-3 are always hot topics around here, but we're 100% Chrysler (1 Jeep, 2 Dodges) at my house. I can't see myself...

    Can you consider a Jeep as a small truck

    I call my Wrangler a truck sometimes and my 5-year old son nearly always corrects me immediately. He says "it's a Jeep, daddy, not a truck!" So there's my son's two cents on the topic.

    Hose identification

    Glad you got it fixed up, but I'm sorry for the hassle, too. The hose in my 01 was split almost exactly like yours. That's interesting about the emissions testing and the pass. I live in Michigan, and we don't have to have emissions testing here yet, though there's little doubt mine would have...

    Door locked

    This has happened to both doors on my 01. Basically, the locking mechanism inside the door gets stuck due to rust or grease/gunk buildup and won't unlock. The solution suggested here which I used successfully both times was to roll the window down and spray the inner door lock mechanism with...

    VD plans

    Isn't the new term STI?? I don't know. We rarely run into that in the veterinary field these days.

    VD plans

    Amen, brother. We took our 4 yo and 1 yo boys to dinner with us this evening. Hardly romantic, but there's no normal life with young ones, there's just life, and it's good.

    Plasti Dip your Jeep

    Hey Terry. I did my wheels last summer and did some touch ups on the bumper end caps, front and rear, and other trim. I did scrape the right front end cap the other day on the edge of the garage door and it peeled a little. Probably wouldn't take a lot of heavy abuse without a lot of coats...

    Heater resistor or???

    I had a similar problem in my 01 TJ. It started with a couple of settings that wouldn't work but eventually the fan would not blow at any speed. I tried replacing the resistor, blower relay, and fan speed selector switch. I checked the wiring harness as well because I was told TJs had a tendency...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Well, yesterday we had snow coming into southeast Michigan, and the blower in my 01 TJ hasn't been working, so I haven't had heat, which isn't a big deal because the Jeep isn't my daily driver, except in in the winter. I decided to try to get this fixed before I left work to pick up the kids in...

    Dash electrics, stereo, and fan

    Hey y'all, Any thoughts on why the stock stereo display (and radio) and fan (turn switch to all settings - no air blowing, AC, heat, any) in an 01 TJ would suddenly go out. Everything else works fine - starts, runs smooth, all interior and exterior lights, main dash gauges, and dash lights...

    you never saw this one coming

    Chuck Norris has the greatest poker face of all time. He once won the final hand of the World Poker Tour's 1997 Championship with a 4 of diamonds, a jack of spades, a beer coaster from the casino bar, a "Get Out of Jail Free" card from Monopoly, and a green number 5 card from UNO.

    New Wrangler Freedom Edition

    I think the dealership in Troy had a 2 door in white, others were all Unlimited. Didn't check the trans options as I wasn't Jeep shopping. Good luck hunting brother.

    Chuck Norris sleeps with a night light on. Not because Chuck Norris is afraid of the dark, but because the dark is afraid of Chuck Norris.

    New Wrangler Freedom Edition

    Ok, now I'm confused. What's the difference between this and the Oscar Mike edition? And I thought the Oscar Mikes were only available to service members overseas? I swear I saw at least 2-3 OM editions at a Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram dealership in Troy, MI last week when I was car shopping...
