When I was first looking for a Jeep I was looking at the JK 4 doors. I didn't think looking for a 5 to 7 year old vehicle would cost that much, but boy o boy was I wrong. I couldn't fit one anywhere in my tight budget that I have and I for damn sure wanted to take it off-roading. After...

Looks like a fun project. Great job with it so far.

Would it be better to use RTV and rubber gasket? I can put RTV on pan and then place gasket. Let it set. Put RTV on top the gasket and place pan on transmission. Finger tighten the bolts and let it set before torqueing.

Working on the transmission pan again today. I have a new Crown Deep Dish pan, but I am going to try one more time with the old pan. I haven't tried RTV yet. I have only tried a Felpro gasket and a rubber gasket. Both still allowed a leak from the rear of the pan above the skid plate. Should I...

@Flyer58 Did the best I could sanding with a few wire wheels. I Sprayed Rustoleom Rust Reformer to protect until I can get a chance to cut and weld. I also noticed that there seems to be some bed liner already sprayed underneated. I should have did this day one. I just didn't think it would...

I would be the Collins Bros Jeep of YJs, owning one in every year, color, model.

I wish I had the opportunity to experience one in that condition with stock everything. I should have trusted my gut wanting one in college and bought me one sooner during the early 2010s.

I may have $30,000 lying around some where.

Oh wow, your's were pretty bad. Luckily mine are no where near that extent. I have it on the corners of my driver's side pan on the tunnel cover side. Everything else in the interior is pretty much still solid. For the side chamber on the and image, was it rusting from the inside? It looks...

Did you take the tub off to do the under coat?

Nice, that is a clean job you did. What did you spray on top? Just a coat of black paint? Have you done anything to your floor's since or just painted it?

Need some advice on this. After researching, I think the best route would be to cut out as much of the bad as possible, weld in patches, and apply the por15 stuff? I also bought this, I would like to keep as much of the original floor. I may cut out what I need from the new pan or use it as a...

I did a leak down test on the 6th cyl. I bought a Maddox brand from Harbor Freight (all the brands on Amazon had piss poor reviews anyways). Ill just return the Maddox when I am done with it. I warmed up the motor to temp. Basically, I had it idle until it hit 200F. I removed the spark plug on...

I am not sure unless there was a drastic increase in tire size when you changed them out. Edit: Oh wait, I thought I was having Deja vu. I am guessing you have officially ruled out transmission fluid being the issue?

Another good video on Leak Down Test. He also shows you how to make a homemade tester.

I'm surprised the windshield didn't fully cave in.

Started sanding what I thought was surface rust on my driver side panel, and I now have a few quarter size holes and some cracking going on. I am going to have to patch weld. Luckily that is the worst of it. Most of my tub interior still has the original paint job and clear coat. As much as I...

A bit of a long video, but I found his explanation of a compression test/ leak down test pretty good. Let me know how yall's go. I have the same situation with disappearing oil as well. I may try a synthetic 10W40 over the 10W30 I have been using. I have low compression in my 6th cyl. I have...

You may be able to find a chrome replacement, but I am not sure if it is metal or just plastic chrome. What brand/brands are you purchasing for your handles? I was thinking about buying a Crown replacement set for my doors.
