    DC Jeep friends

    This may be a long shot but it's worth a try. I just got stationed at Ft. Myer VA. Because of the move I had to sell my beloved YJ to a friend. I know that this is a lot to ask but is there anyone in my area that is willing to let me tag along on some rides. The city life is not for me and I...

So that being said I decided today to replace the engine, because let's face it, I just can't let myself see her go. I have been...

    Stereo won't work with engine running

It will play if I have to key to run just on battery, but as soon as I start the jeep it wont play. I get power to the head unit while...

    MA Audio Amp Problem

    I have two amps under the backseat of my wrangler. One powers two 10in subs (1800w amp) and the other powers my two speakers on the sound bar (800w amp). But ever since last Tuesday they have been randomly shutting off. When ever I go and wiggle the fuses on the 800w amp it will power back up...

    YJ Misfire?

    I am pretty sure that I am having a misfire, but I am not sure. My mechanical expertise is not really up to par. It is spitting and sputtering as soon as there is no real stress on the engine, but as soon as there is stress the sputtering slows down but is still there. If I engage the clutch for...

    Easy Question About Handles

    I started the daunting task of replacing the handles on the Jeep the other day when I came across a problem. What kind of adhesive should I use for the outside of the handle, the handle to gasket, and gasket to door? I tried JB weld and it seemed to hold, but then today they were half fallen...

    Ok well I am getting the Jeep all the rust repaired and repaired... so I am debating on what color I am going to get it "all prettied up." So it is a throw up between White, Dark Green, or Dark Blue. I am leaning towards white just because it is the cheapest. But I am kinda still in the...

    This Oughta' Fit, Right?

    I am putting in a new engine in the Ol' Jeep because the 2.5L just wasn't going to work out. So after looking around I think that I am leaning towards a 350 simply because it has a reasonable amount of power and there is a large availability of parts in my area. So after looking around I found...
