I love the carhart seatsaver covers. They are a tad pricey but I have had mine for 4 years, I take them off and wash them a couple times a year. They still look brand new, they fit perfectly, and assuming you like 1 of the 2 color options, they check all of your boxes...

I really like the Covercraft Carhart seat covers. https://www.covercraft.com/us/en/product/carhartt-seatsaver-custom-seat-covers.SSC-SSCA Very durable, easy to remove and wash, we used them in our fleet of trucks at an electrical contractor and they held up well there so should handle...

I painted a truck in the driveway using rattlecans, it was terrible, would never do it again. Small section maybe, but not the whole vehicle. If you have the gear for an HVLP setup then that will make it a lot easier. Prep is everything, plan to spend 10x as much time/effort prepping vs...

comes with the injector, I would think you could reuse the hard plastic piece assuming you can get it out intact that is.

update to let yall know i got some confirmation from Dorman on their rad fan CFM's According to Dorman tech support: Dorman Part#621-018 (HD COOLING ELECTRIC FAN) moves 32.23 CMM which is 1,138 CFM Dorman Part#620-053 (NON-HD ELECTRIC FAN) moves 76 CMM which is 2,684 CFM. This makes sense to...

I know the 02 was a weird model year for some things, lots of early production run changes. I believe the TCM and PCM need to be programmed with the same VIN in order to work properly. So either both modules will have to get moved over, or you will have to take one in for reprogramming.

The aftermarket radiators aren't terrible, but they are not all created equal. This unit lasted me 6 years, and at the time i purchased I remember it saying it was an "improved design" (https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=499658&cc=1432214&pt=2172&jsn=9). It did not crack/leak on the...

You have the HD cooling package installed. The fan shroud is a PITA to work around no doubts, but this cooling package is the best factory option for preventing high engine temps. you can certainly "downgrade" but I would only do so out of necessity. You would remove the mechanical fan and...

Good luck, in case you cant find one, weathertech makes some awesome floor and cargo mats, shaped perfectly (but missing those anchor point cutouts unfortunately).

$2k is only worth it if the rest of the jeep is pristine, or it has something more rare going for it (renegade gear complete and good condition, very little rust if any, and unmolested otherwise). Whenever I am looking at a mechanic special like this, I feel out the seller though, sometimes you...

looks like 16x1.5 https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=10912988&cc=1432214&pt=7428&jsn=333

compression/leakdown checks? Are you using the NGK copper plugs? Mine (and others on here) did not like the iridium plugs I tried, misfired quite a bit, but not just 1 cylinder. If you are using the proper plugs, and have swapped the injector and coil, but the codes remain the same, I would...

I am staring down the same job, and the best plan I can come up with is to get a junkyard t-case. If you can get a lower mileage/better condition junkyard unit then I would rebuild it and do the swap. If you get a questionable origin junkyard unit, then I would swap it in, make sure it...

^ is the methond I know to check it yourself and you can also check for play in wheel bearings same time. Alternatively, you can take it to a tire shop should be able to spin up on their balance machine and tell you if anything is out of round at all with the wheel or the tire.
