    Found the diff breather vent...how assess if it's functional?

    I was having some seeping of oil at the axle where the vent attaches as well as at the differential drain plug suggesting that the breather vent is perhaps dysfunctional or some other blockage. So I got up in there and messed w the vent. The vent cap seemed to jiggle around easily. Didn't...

    Oil on the axle flanking the rear diff

    Was having a slow rear diff leak and was trying to see if I needed to service the housing. I took a look down there and it looks like the leak is partially from the fill hole/plug region. Weird. Also noted the oil flanking the housing. See the pic. Is that normal?

    Loose steering: is it difficult to replace the tie rods, drag links etc.?

    Lots of play in the steering. Wondering if replacing some those steering components...like tie rod ends and those 2 large rods/sleeves may help. The rubber housings on the ends are shot. Watched jeep solid's YouTube on tie rods and didn't look all that difficult. But before I embark on this...

    At what point do you replace leaf springs?

    For awhile now I've been wanting to replace the stock springs but I'm not sure why. There is no real good data to support this and I think I may just be tossing away money. 113k miles on stock 1991 4.0 are the current specs. I have 30s on it but tires need replacement pretty bad, I don't like...

    Any suggestions on repainting the roof rack?

    Rack is getting sandblasted. And haven't decided if I paint myself or powder coat. I know I should prob stick to black but curious if anyone has seen anything out there in a different color that would look good w the navy. Thx!

    If I cut the seatbelt wire could I get a parasitic battery bleed?

    Driver seat female side is busted. Got a used seatbelt off eBay and was replacing. It was actually a rear seatbelt bc I 'figured' that was probably used less in general. If I just cut the seatbelt wiring and install without the wire will that set up a battery bleed of some sort? Ive had some...

    Jacked it up finally, are the front pads supposed to be touching the rotors?

    Have had this YJ for years but never really worked on it bc I rarely drive it. Its been neglected and needs maintenance. So finally got some time, jacked it up to replace the shocks and noticed that both of the front brake pads appear to be right up against the rotors. It turns but it's for...

    Front Leafs...HD vs Standard?

    Ok, Sold my audi and just dusted off the 4.0L 91 YJ which I now really enjoy driving but it needs some work. The radiator and brakes had major issues so repaired those items to get it back on the road. Ride is not great. I want to replace springs and the shocks. Springs are original issue and...
