Looking for advice on a purchase… New to Wrangler as an owner but an excellent trail passenger for a buddy… Want to buy a ‘23 Rubicon and found an AEV conversion that’s trail ready with 37’s, lift, bumpers, winch, aka “standard AEV” built. $79k but $56k msrp for the Rubicon (has V6, auto, tow...

Would anyone know if all the parts that I can reuse, steering column, 258ci 4.2 motor, 3 speed Trans, original front and rear diffs, drive shafts, tail gate, front grill assembly, and others I can't think of at the moment work with the 1977 frame and tub?

Hello all, I'm fairly new to owning a jeep (4 months in). I have had nothing but issues with my HID headlights and want to swap them entirely for a LED version (and also Black instead of Chrome). I looked on all sorts of websites such as CarID and all the nicer looking LED headlights only work...

Anyone know if I can rotate the shift lever of my ax15 180 degrees? I've installed a 4.0 in my cj7 and now it's time for the ax15. It sits back about 3 in more than my t5 and has a 1.5 in bend towards the back. Can I just rotate this to move my assembly forward?

Hey guys, Could someone help me with verifying the width of the top front bumper bolt holes center to center? I have been looking for a few days but cannot find anything on the forums. I purchased a Smittybuilt P/N: 2812 CJ front bumper conversion to a YJ due to my front shackle conversion...

Hi all, Just starting conversion project for 1998 Wrangler TJ from standard transmission to automatic transmission. Is transfer case the same for standard as for automatic? Also, we are looking for a good, used automatic transmission (rebuildable unit) with shifter and so forth. And...

I purchased a 1984 CJ7 in August with the intent to use it to prowl the back roads of Arizona with my grandsons. Some previous owner had gone over the body and most of the mechanical stuff so it was in pretty good shape when I bought it. Never the less, no Jeep owner can stand to leave their...

It finally happened - my Rezeppa/Fixed Yoke front drive shaft bit the dust. Considering it had 135,000 miles on it, 35,000 and 3 years of which on a ~3" lift, I'd say it did pretty good. Let's start this post with an illustration of all the drive shaft options for our WJs: In a perfect...

Well I snagged a HP D30 and XJ D44 both w. 4.56 gears and locked. They cam out of another XJ and are going into mine. The D30 is easy - it's a '93 housing and I'll be swapping all my '00 hardware onto it - chromolly's, hubs, rotors, calipers etc. I believe this will all bolt to the existing...

I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for this post, but I have a decent reason, so please hear me out. I have a '96 ZJ with a V8, 44RE and the NV249 that it came with. Right after leaving my house this morning, intending to go to work, I was greeted with a ton of vibration even at 20mph. After...

SO I got offered a nice hardtop for my JKU for $900. Pictures attached. I want to jump on it but I was about to order a Gobi rack. My though is the top will not be for sale long, and the rack will be. But it is starting to warm up here so even if I bought it I might not use it to much until...

I have a 72 CJ5 I am doing the conversion on, I am looking at the Cardone 27-7521 gearbox and Cardone 20-6179 pump but what pulley should I use since the pump does not come with one? And are the Cardone products good?

I have just abt finished my swap and went to start and it runs for 3 seconds and dies over and over!! I have read til my brain hurts about the "skim security" system that came as a option on TJ's. My Tj does not have the skim and is a 99' but apparently the donor Tj which also is a 99 had it. I...

As expected, after lifting and 33" tires to my RHD TJ with 124k miles, the trans started slipping in overdrive. Cleared the code and got back on the road with overdrive locked off. I had planned to have parts stashed next year to convert to manual transmission. I'm planning to install an ax 15...

Okay. So, I own an 87 xj pioneer, I drive it approx 100 miles a day commuting for work, and have recently changed my thermostat and heater control valve. Since then, everything was okay, until about a week ago, I was driving and when I came to a stop, I could here a hissing. I looked at my temp...

I have been thinking about swapping my '99 XJ from an AW-4 to an AX-15. I have thought about this for about a year now, and I still want to do it as bad as I did on day one, so I think this is what I truly want to do with my Jeep. I found a guy locally today who has owned 32 different...

**I posted here because this swap is applicable to most Jeeps with D30 front ends.** I've researched this swap over the last couple of years, reading thread after thread. All of them state that the WJ knuckle has a different offset, so a spacer must be used to re-align the u-joint. I've found...

Hey guys, today I put my grommet mount 2 1/2" "signal-stat" LED signal light into the grill of my '99 TJ, originally i was planning on using them as running lights, and turn signals, but i could only find these lights in 2 pin, or 2 wire. that means 1 function wire and 1 ground wire. My truck is...

Been thinking of selling my Jeep and starting an old pick up build. My wife threw a fit (she loves the Jeep), so, going to do both worlds by dropping a SB 350 into my 97 TJ. Question is, would the build be much simpler (cheaper) by rebuilding and keeping the 32RH. My tranny has 110k miles...
