I just purchased an 89 Wrangler that had the steering column in pieces when I took ownership. I have located all the parts except for the key release lever spring. This is a super difficult part to find and I'm wondering if I can just remove the key release lever from the column all together...

Does anyone know where to get replacement springs for the factory mirror and bracket for a 98 TJ? I can't seem to find any info on this part online. Someone's got to make them right?

I have a 2000 XJ with about 140k on it. The rear leafs are flat when I have the usual load in it. Neither smile nor frown. The ride is fine on the road. BTW the shocks seem fine. When I step on front or rear bumper and jump off the bumper comes back to center. No bounce. What made me wonder...

Just removed the leaf springs and other various parts for a rough country lift. In my "other spare time" I make knives. I have been trying to find out what exact metal was used in the stock 1993 jeep wrangler yj leaf springs. Important for the proper heat treatment of the metal. Figure making...

Heya, Hit a pothole while avoiding another pothole here in Manitoba and my passenger side strut broke and the spring that was around it cut into my tire until I could saw the spring off so I could drive it back from the campsite where I was staying. Looking on-line I noticed that the struts...

Got a 78 CJ-7 over 20 years ago. Never replaced springs or shocks. Very rough ride. Didn't notice it bothering me for years, but now, if I ride 30 min in the Jeep on the highway, my lower back, just above the hip, has a really sharp pain on the right side, over the lead foot. There's no give...

I'm hoping to hit up a local junk yard that has a good selection of Cherokee's from years past. I have an XJ that has some pretty tired, soft front springs. I'm not a fan of driving in a Cadillac on that light, floaty feeling. I'd like an aggressive spring, that you can feel the road- I'm...

So I took my jeep to Firestone to get an oil change and they did a free checkup... After 8 hours of waiting the manager called me over and told me he had to show me something. He took me into the garage and showed me my jeep's springs. (I believe I have a 2.5 inch lift, teraflex). He told me...

I've noticed something's wrong with my right front suspension lately and it's getting worse. I go on trails with my jeep, nothing special, just a little trail next to some train tracks close to where I live. There's bumps and humps, you know, everything that makes a trail. If I go just fast...

My name is Tiler. I'm only 15 but as soon as I get my license I'm out of here every change I get. And I also want to know for future reference. Is it better to have more rim than tire or the opposite? I have a 95 yj that I purchased as my first vehicle and Jeep ! It's exactly what I wanted but...

My idle screw doesn't seem to want to consistently return all the way to the idle bar (the stop for the idle screw) on a 4.2L YJ. Does anybody know of a reason as to why it wont return all the way? does it need greasing? new springs? *More information* This happened when I went to turn down the...

Howdy, just bought a 95 YJ with the 4 banger. She runs great, but my throttle keeps sticking. I took a look at the throttle body and noticed there was no return spring on it. Went to my favorite place in the world autozone and got a set of universal springs and bent one into place and it...

it's going to be over $1000... how hard is the water pump to do myself? i sense a little BS because the car was not overheating when i drove it to the dealer to fix the pulley yesterday... i've done one on a 944 porsche... or do you recommend i have the dealer do it?

So since the warm weather and spring has finally arrived, Wk cleanout commences. What have you found in your Jeep that has made it through the winter? Any odd items or stories? I managed to find 2 sweatshirts, tons of waterbottles, 3 ice scrappers I was convinced I lost, and much more:p

So the stock springs on my 95 are completely flat (the jeep has 194K miles) are they something that could break from regular use? I've thought about doing the bastard pack since budget is tight to give them more arch/ restore the lift height but I'm wondering if keeping these stock springs is a...

Got a broken valve spring on a 03 Liberty :mad:. Now trying to find a valve spring compressor to do the job. The pretty unique configuration of the V6 and the lash adjuster are narrowing my choices. Does anyone know what type of tool would best fit the job and where to get it?

Firestone recommended I get new boots and plugs for my '02 Wrangler. When they quoted me $300, I decided to do it myself. I removed the 4 bolts from the coil rail pack and popped it off. While removing the boots, the 2" small springs were firmly attached to the coil rail. In the box there...

What is the advantage of SOA? I already have a 4" lift and always see people wanting to go SOA, just wondering what advantage this gives because my rig is still running SUA.

Is anyone running or know of someone running 4" Currie springs? I need to replace the springs in my TJ and I was wondering if they were any good. Thanks.
