    Hope it is okay to post for sale here. After a year or so of fixing and rebuilding, my wife has a back injury that will not allow her to get into much less ride in my jeep so I need to sell. The following is what I have done to it. I built it as a over the road jeep, so it is not a off road...

    Bimini connector

    Hoping for a quick answer. I have my hard top off for painting. The windshield frame has a piece attached on top to secure a bimini top. I do not use a bimini top. Should I remove it? Does it interfere with. the hard top fitting correctly?

    Transmission identification

    I am getting ready to buy a trans that is suppose to be a AX15. I have not confirmed it yet, but have been told the drain plug is on the driver's side. When I see it I will check for 10 splines and the aluminum plate instead of cast iron. Is there anything else I should check. They say it...

    AX15

    Has anyone rebuilt their own 5 speed trans? I like a challenge, but this scares me some. Is it difficult if I go slow and layout pieces in order?

    Rear shackle pipe size?

    I am making my own frame end pieces and wondering if anyone knows the pipe size that the upper shackle bushings are pressed into. I have cut my old ones out but would rather not weld rusty parts into my new frame ends.

    Skid plate frame repair

    This is not the best way to repair for the skid plate rusted out bolts, but I thought I should share. I needed 3/4" spacing to get my differential and trans to matching angles (to stop driveline vibration). Most of my skid plate mounting holes were rusted or stripped out. I purchased grade 8...

    Bucking YJ

    It is hard to describe, but a lot of times I am starting off or trying to idle in a parking lot and it starts bucking. It is not engine related I don't think. Sitting in neutral it idles smooth even as I increase increase RPM's. Best way for someone to duplicate it is to drive your vehicle...

    Body Mounts on Rusty 93

    Okay, I have procrastinated long enough! All my mounts are without bolt or the bolts are so rusty I don't think a socket will fit them. I have seen some U-tube videos that I don't like and most are body off. I don't have the resources to pull the body, so looking for any advise prior to...

    Running Rich

    My 93 4.0 seems to be running rich, plus a. lot of exhaust fumes in cab. The fumes are enough to get me high. I have all new exhaust system and have checked and rechecked for leaks. Tailpipe does not extend beyond the bumper though. Thinking about an extension? Aside from it getting in cab...

    Loping thru parking lot

    ANY IDEAS FOR THIS....I am not sure if it is me or my jeep. Seems there is always something to work on, but I suppose that is the Jeep life. I am trying to start out slow in a parking lot and it starts "loping". It is like I have no control of the acceleration. Until I have shifted to 2nd...

    ROCKAUTO difficult to deal with

    Help please, I just receive exhaust system from Rockauto for my 93 YJ. #17309 Walker. No packing slip so not sure what they sent. Received a DynoMax Tubo muffler but not the same as my old one. My inlet and outlet are centered on muffler, the new one has one center and one offset. Don't...

    Now that most of the mechanical stuff is done I am moving on to the body and interior. I don't want to make a mistake with seat covers. So asking for opinions on what is most liked. I do want full covers that do the entire seat, not the lace up the sides or bungie cords. I will remove my...
