    Motor reving high on own, foot on brake , in neutral or park.

    We have had a lot of rain lately in Florida, and gigantic puddle snuck up on me on the road. Ended up going through like 10-12" of water at 25-30mph. Nothing I haven't done off road but the jeep hated it. My check engine was already on and it started flashing and I lost throttle response for a...

    Need suggestions on rear setup after installing shackle relocators.

    Ok so after the shackle relocators it has come to my attention that I need to redo the rear suspension from the huge shackles and stacked , worn out XJ packs that are there now. What are your thoughts? The relocator gives 1.5, so I was thinking 3.5" leafs and 1" shackle to set the back at 6"...

    I have an 01 and I just broke the driver inner on my D30. A buddy with a 86 gave me this spare set said they did not work in his. It looks to me like the driver is the same just with shorter wheel studs, but what year had the passenger CV 2 part inner? Will it work on my 01? If not will the hub...

    Winches and water?

    I just ordered a Smitty xrc 8 with synthetic rope. After ordering I noticed the X20 series. Is my xrc gonna die if it gets wet? I know I've seem people have them under water . I did buy the cover but figured that was more for sun fading the rope. Can I mount the controller under hood near firewall?

    01 randomly will not fire. New starter recently and it has power

    video of no fire So it just keeps turning and will not fire. I made 2 stops before this one where it died. Had to tow it home. Starter sounds like it works, its brand new, battery test good, sounds like fuel pump is good. So I just replaced the CPS with a new and still won't fire. Any thoughts?

    Help /ideas... I mangled my rear fenders....

    Here's the story, had Napier flares, they were great, but I got 33s and wanted to stay at current lift so I took the flares off. The front I just cut more and that went well. The rears went wrong when I did the flares. I cut past the point of cut and fold. A side of effect of rushing and 100...

    Are straight axle Jeep alignments all a scam?

    It is my understanding you can only adjust Toe, which can be done at home. Even right on Iron Rocks Tie Rod page it says: **Steering toe-in adjustment needed after installation. While a professional alignment is best, this can be done successfully at home using a tape measure.** So what all are...
