    JK inner metal fender removal

    Search this but all I found was info on plastic fender flair removal & install. I'm looking for "how to" video or written instructions for how to remove the metal inner fender on my '08 JK. I've removed all the obvious bolts that I can see but its still not coming off. From looking at pic's of...

    H.V.A.C. gremlins!!

    I'm no expert but I believe these dampers or doors are vacuum operated, so unless the fan is also running, I wouldn't think there'd be any drain on your battery. Could be the switch that controls the direction of your air flow is worn or going bad and allowing the built up vacuum to bleed off...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Finished up install of new Smittybilt XRC seats, to replace worn front seats of my '08 JK. Not a direct swap project and had to do some on-site 'engineering' to get them in and working as they should...most of which involved getting the back and forth seat adjusters to work properly. Done now...

    Beginner's guidelines and pointers

    CJ5's, with their narrower wheel base had a reputation for roll-over problems. The CJ7 was supposed to correct this. Some years ago, when my oldest son was 16, I bought a CJ7 for him. When I called our insurance company, GEICO, they refused to insure it, citing the roll-over issues of the...

    6 cylinder wrangler toweing capacity

    Is your trailer's weight "dry weight", meaning what it weighs empty? You need to consider total weight, when it has a full load of water, gear, food, equipment, clothing, etc., when determining towing capacity. IMO, you'd be severely pushing a Wrangler's limits to the point of the rig being...

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Used front tow hooks to stretch and straighten out some very stiff 10 ga electrical wire I was using for a wiring project in my garage.

    evap line??

    Never heard of such but my guess would be, if such a thing exists, that it might be some sort of vent tube from the gas tank??? Only thing I've ever heard of regarding an evaporator in a vehicle had to do with A/C. As to gas tank supports, I would think these would be whatever attaches the...

    Just bought my first Jeep! Need some help figuring out what I have...

    Like you, I have no idea what many of those things are either but obviously the PO spent a ton of $$$ on it. Without knowing the PO or at least talking to them, I'd have been leery of buying it with all those mods. Good luck with it.

    Dealer Invoice Copy

    Search of your VIN will get you the "Build Sheet". This will show specifically what equipment and factory accessories your Jeep had when it left the factory. I don't know how you could get a copy of the window sticker that lists equipment and suggested retail prices you're apparently looking for.

    What did you do to your Jeep today?

    Yesterday, finally got around to replacing multi-switch to keep fog lights from coming on by themselves and killing my battery. All's well now here in the Ocala Nat'l Forest!

    Hard top

    I believe '97 thru '06 hardtops will fit your '97 TJ. '97 thru '03 hardtops will have side vents behind the side windows because these year models didn't have vented tailgates. '03 thru '06 hardtops don't have the side vents as those models have vented tailgates. I have a '98 hardtop I found...
