    Check Gas Cap message after Evap system repaired?

    I have a 2006 Grand Cherokee Limited with a 5.7 liter Hemi. It had a leak in the charcoal canister that was causing my check engine light to come on, and a message telling me to check my gas cap. I had the evap system fixed, and the check engine light is off. It still has the message "Check...

    Removing stuck screws

    In the hopes of removing the doors from my jeep this summer, I purchased some different mirrors that fasten to the windshield frame. Unfortunately the screws in that frame are stuck tight. I saw a discussion about this in a Facebook group where it was suggested that the user simply drill out...

    I thought it was just me

    I've done this a couple times now and I thought it was just me until I saw a conversation about it in a yj facebook group, so I thought I'd ask here. How many of you have sacrificed a belt loop or two, to the door striker on your yj? Be honest now.

    WJ Power steering return hose question

    I have a 2006 Grand Cherokee with the 5.7 liter Hemi engine. This is my daily deriver when I'm not in my YJ. This morning one of the power steering return lines popped off. I say "one of" because it looks like the return line is made up of two lines, but I'm not a mechanic by trade or...

    What top?

    Not sure if anyone can help with this one. I have a hard top on my 94 YJ. I am pretty sure it's not original as the plug on the wiring harness on the jeep is a different shape/size than the receptacle on the top, and I have a switch for both rear defogger and rear wiper on the dash but the top...

    Front wheel noise

    When I have my front axle locked (manual PTO cable lock,) and the transfer case in 2 Hi, there is a high pitched noise coming from the right wheel. I first though it's probably a bearing, but if I unlock the axle the noise goes away, or if I shift the transfer case into 4, it goes away. It's...

    Exhaust leak?

    When I purchased this 94, I didn't test drive it much, but it sounded like it had a pretty good exhaust leak up by the engine. I figured the pipe was probably rotted out and would need to be changed up there, even though the tail pipe is almost brand new. After getting it home (the dealership...

    Traction bars? Remove or leave?

    I've been seeing a lot of discussion about removing the track bars from a YJ and am curious about it. My 94 rides really, really rough. I didn't expect it to ride like my Grand Cherokee Limited, but it's almost bone jarring on the roads around here. I've seen some people suggest removing the...

    Leaky Jeepy

    I put a box of brake parts for my wife's van on the floor of my 94 YJ yesterday afternoon just before it started to rain. Went out this morning to discover a very wet box of brake parts. Water was dripping in from under the dash board. Where should I begin to look for this leak? Any...

    Hard steering

    The steering on my 94 Wrangler doesn't feel right. It almost feels as though the power steering isn't working, but it isn't constant. When I turn the wheel it is hard to turn, then it gets easy, then hard again (like the power steering is working intermittently.) There are no noises coming...

    What is it?

    I recently purchased a '94 Wrangler, something I've wanted for many, many years. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to Wranglers, though I have had 3 Grand Cherokees and love them. This Wrangler is in pretty rough shape body-wise, but that's what I was looking for to keep the price down. Now...
