Replacing rack and pinion bushings w/o removing it
filled mine with 3m window weld. I go back and forth on weather or not I like it. You can feel the engine at idle from the driver seat. It really stiffened them up.before filling the voids.- duderz7

What did you do to your jeep today?
ready to go! Arrived! Not necessarily a "did to" but a "did with" the Jeep. My Son and I met up with some friends for a trail work (Weiser MTB Club) and campout. I let him drive a good portion of the way out on narrow mountain roads, He's barely 14 and did awesome!- duderz7

Replacing rack and pinion bushings w/o removing it
That's what I did, it was silly easy. It's also a good time to replace engine mounts while the diff is out.look all this room to work. If your oil pan is questionable, do that too. Mine was great.- duderz7

End nippers Will do it, 10 bucks at harbor freight. Or if you know a plumber pex clamp pliers work too. Hope you're boot lasts. I replaced one once only to have it fail quickly. It was more like flexible plastic than rubber.- duderz7

2008 3.7 4x4 Motor replacement
Jasper doesn't sell directly, only to installers. I recently used Fraser for an engine replacement on my 2004 Yukon. They're essentially an engine retailer for various builders including Jasper. One thing I did hear a lot when looking was to stay away from "atk" which is what many parts stores...- duderz7

Someone please help me
I agree with the above. If the cap isn't holding pressure coolant will boil at or below operating temp. Water under pressure has a higher boiler point.- duderz7

What did you do to your jeep today?
If your upper control arms were torqued with the suspension drooping it'll cause issues and noises. You could loosen them, bounce the Jeep a bit and the torque. Same with sway bar links. Which reminds me, the sway bar bushings up front can be very noisy if worn-out.- duderz7

What did you do to your jeep today?
If one motor mount was in need of replacement it's likely the other does as well as the transmission mount.- duderz7

My rear springs on the 2002 kj keep popping off when I'm fully flexed out. I'll post pics below. What can I do to fix this issue . Thanks everyone.
You could look into limiting straps at this point, but the proper shock would probably be best. Your current shock may be limiting suspension travel in the other direction which is not good either.- duderz7

Rear suspension or axle clunk when getting on or off the gas.
Jack it up by the axle so it's closer to ride height during inspection. The bushings mentioned would be a good place to start, next the ball joint on top of the diff, check for play front to back. Also loose shock hardware or bad bushings there. Lower arms, and I joints at the drive shaft. Any...- duderz7
