    Rear axle alignment

    So earlier this year I was driving my 91 YJ when one day I noticed a metalic sound when turning sharp turns (like from one road to another), sounding like something metal was sliding on metal. I didn't think too much of it and parked the Jeep for a few months until yesterday. When I started...

    Went out to start my Jeep today and it wouldn't start. It turns but won't fire. I pulled a plug out and don't get a spark like normal. I replaced the coil and still won't start. Battery is fine as I winched myself onto a trailer to get it home. When I take the cap off the fuel line there is...

    ABS and Brake Light

    Had our 2002 Grand Cherokee out on the beach today. The ABS and Brake light came on. They didn't go off either, unhooked the battery to reset the computer, still didn't go off. They finally went off as we were leaving the beach. What could be the problem?

    YJ Temperature Gauge / Gauge Cluster

    I'm looking for just the temperature gauge for a YJ. If you have the entire cluster and don't want to separate, I might buy the entire cluster.

    Tie Rod Boots

    I'm replacing the tie rod boots on my YJ and got the drivers side done. When I went to the passenger side, where there was no boot left, the tie rod is different. On the old boots there was a metal ring that had to be pried out, this is how the drivers side was. The new boot then fit around a...

After a lot of shifting from 1st to reverse trying to use the Jeep as a roller to pack down some dirt, I smelled clutch and couldn't get into gear w/out letting the transmission cool. I checked the fluid today and it's full, but pink. Should the...

    Roll Bar Paint Color

    I'm trying to choose what color to paint my roll bars. I can't find any place that has factory touchup paint in my color, even the dealers. Should I just go with a gloss black, or a flat black? Any ideas? I'm going to pull the roll bar out so I can herculine. The roll bar pads on there now...

    yj windshield washer tubes

    RE: Spicer U joints Whenever I try to clean my windshield no fluid comes out of the spray nozzles. The pump pumps fluid out, the fluid isn't making it through the tube. I have my dash off now, and figured I'd try to fix it now. Does anyone know how to access the tube behind the airboxes?

    YJ Indicator Lights

    I'm in the process of removing my entire dash to do some painting and change the dash pad. I have everything off but the center section over the steering column that has the indicator lights (turn, shift, check engine, 4wd). How do the two wire connectors come off the circuit board on each side?
