    Dana 35...

    So what would a fair price be for the labor to swap out the 35 to the 44? Just trying to get an idea as to what I should expect. HouTexs

    Dana 35...

    Honestly, how weak is the Dana 35 rear axle? I just lifted my 02' TJ and put on 305/70/16's and I am curious as to how it is going to act on a trail. I do moderate off roading mainly mud and some medium trails but I have seen different articles about what the 35 can handle. Can anyone tell me...

    Bestop Tire Carrier

    Anyone know anything/have any thoughts about the tire carrier that bestop offers? I have my reservations about it due to the fact that the install requires drilling of the body panels. I am trying to decide what type of bumpers that I want on my tj and I am just trying to explore all options...

    Tire Carrier

    Anyone seen or own one of the bestop swing away carriers? Is is a piece or would it hold up to some mild off roading without casusing problems. I am trying to figure out what I want to do be it either a bumper/tire carrier combo or something like that. HouTexs

    New Suspension setup question...

    I answered my own questions with a couple of phone calls so I will try to answer myself (let me know if this sounds correct) The RE Super flex kits require the SYE because they flek more but the standard re 3.5 lift doesn't need it if you install an adjustable rear track bar. The Re lift costs...

    New Suspension setup question...

    How necessary would a sye and driveshaft replacement be with a Rubicon Express 4.5 super flex kit? The jeep spends most of its time on road with a few adventures into the mud or up some small hills. I think I have deciede against the 35's for various reasons many of which were discussed here...

    New Suspension setup question...

    What about the 4" suspension lift with a 2" body lift? That should eliminate the driveshaft concerns, right? I don't know how much of a fan I am of the body lift but that may be a less costly option I think. HouTexs

    New Suspension setup question...

    What does everyone think about this set up... 4' Pro Comp (or Skyjacker)lift with 2" Daystar coil spacers to run 35x10.5's on my '02 TJ and would lowering the t-case be all that I would need to do to keep the drive shafts lined up? I have talked to a couple of shops and everyone says something...

    Error code...WTF!

    Houston. Temp was in the low 40's. I went to Autozone to use thier code reader to clear the code and it won't clear out. The description on the unit says that it is a auxillary emissions system. What would the batt temp have to do with emissions? The dealership says that there is a sensor...

    4 lo hard to get into

    I am having a hard time getting my 02 Wrangler Sport into 4 lo. It usually takes about 3 or 4 tries before it will stay in gear and not pop out during driving. I am shifting in neutral at about 5 mph and most of the time it won't engage and stay there. Is there some type of adjustment on the...

    Beefer roll bar covers for 02 TJ

    How can I get the bigger look of the Rubicon for the sport bars of my 02? I was looking and it seems like there is some sort of plastic insert on the Rubicon bars that give it a thicker look than standard. Please help! HouTexs
