Hey all, it’s been a while since I posted anything here and I’ve returned with bad news. My Jeep was destroyed in a rollover accident. I got out relatively unscathed. In fact, I’m incredibly lucky to be alive right now. Here’s a link with more details...

2012 wk2, I just need the highlighted part is it sold by itself? Been replaced by the dealer a few times I dont move the seat but maybe once a month. ridiculous.

Is there a difference between the 2.4L and 2.5L motor mount brackets and locations on the frame? I'm doing a restoration, and it involves replacing the frame. I have a source for a replacement frame and it came from a Jeep with a 2.4 L. My Jeep has a 2.5L. 1, please do not balk at keeping...

Hi Everyone. Does anyone have a mapping of CJ7 inner frame bolt reinforcement (anti-crushing sleeve) locations and what chassis components are attached to those locations? I was chain cleaning the interior of my 83' restoration and a few of these bolt gussets were free and I eventually pulled...

I'm going to help a friend lower his 4" lifted 2004 Rubicon TJ down to a more manageable 1". He has an auto transmission and doesn't want to spend the money on gears. Besides that, his wife wasn't happy with his decision. He has returned to the stock tire size. The plan is to install the...

I'm going to be getting into a body off project on my 1980 CJ7 and I'm wondering what you guys have done. Did you buy a kit or parts? Whose parts did you buy? Good and bad points? Have you heard of Swag Offroad? He's right across the street from my work and I'm always up for going local if it...

I have a Scrambler stripped down ready to stick a 304 motor and transmission from a 1979 CJ7. Where would you start a budget rebuild. All electrical is gutted to the outside of firewall and ready to start over. Brakes have not had fluid for 25 years and master is dry, lines to front axle have...

I live in New England, so the frame has a lot of rust. I was hoping it wouldn't be rotting out, but it's gotten to that point. Today I noticed this in the frame on the driver's side and it looks really bad, so I'm not driving it anymore. Is my Jeep completely f'd at this point?

Hello everyone I'm based in Thailand and excited to join the Jeep world and forum with my first jeep. I'm looking to buy what I'm told is a 1940s WW2 Jeep left over form the war and left here in Thailand. It's been changed a fair bit and now is run as an every day jeep - white paint, bigger...

I've been working on a CAD model of the TJs frame based on the blueprints that are out there. I'm doing this mainly for myself so its not full professional work but I do work as a CAD designer. I used every available dimension on the 2D prints but there were a few places i had to estimate...

I was poking around my '99 TJ the other day and decided to stick my finger in the frame to check for rust, a decision I kind of regret now. I felt some bubbling so I decided to pick up one of those retriever magnets and start running it inside the frame. The image below is what I dug out of both...

New to this forum, guys. Looking for some advice on a rusty frame. I don't have time or the patience for a frame swap, but my jeep has gotten to the point where I need to do something about it. Center driver rail and rear trail arm areas are rotted to hell. Was looking on the interwebs and found...

I'm in the process of replacing my fuel pump and sending unit and decided to replace all the rubber hoses (vent, sending, and return) since they looked brittle and since I was in there anyway. My dilemma is the rubber grommet holding the hoses in between the frame and underbody. I noticed some...

I recently wrecked my tj and insurance found out and totaled it, but they won't pay stating it's my fault. So I decided to rebuild it by swapping the frame and tub to one with a clean title, I've found a 4ç frame and tub for 600 that had a motor fire but still appears to be in good shape mind...

Hi all, Been working on prepping my frame for the internal frame coating. The more times I vacuum and flush it, the more I realize that I need to drill some drain holes. Some of this stuff just doesn't come out and the vacuum is pretty hard to get in there. I'm extremely nervous about drilling...

Hi Guys, Somebody just welded the frame and body mount for me. He told me this is not the best way, but it is inexpensive way. As you can see from the pics, he patched both side of the frame. Is this safe and how long this could last? I used to go off road once a month, and I guess the toughest...

It's good to be here in this new forum to me. I have always rebuilt old Chevy's but I have got this jeep on a deal that was too good to pass up. I just need some help to try to identify what I actually have. It is titled AS A 1955 Willys. However I am not sure that is what the fame is. I am...

well gang... Here are some pics of my 2000 TJ sahara, 155k miles. As you can see, she is suffering from the typical frame rust/rot that we get here in the great NE. This spring I will be welding on a pair of Safe-T Caps to get the rear axle mounts and frame beefed up. Also need to replace the...

Just bought an 01 tj that has a cracked frame. :( did not know this until i pressure washed under the jeep. I found a newer frame that is in good shape for $350. I've been reading posts about this saying that the steering box will be different and the skid plate. What will I have to do to make...

So the Wisconsin winter roads have taken their toll on my frame and the tran skid plate ripped through the frame leaving me a nice big hole in the bottom of my frame. I think its beyond repair, and I dont know how comfortable I am riding on a patched up frame. Im going to be doing a frame...
