    Front Brake Pads / Rotors Question?

    I just did the full Black Magic setup a month ago. Is it better , I'm seriously not sure. I had Hawk on the front, replaced about 4 years and they had done fine, they did put down an annoying reddish brown brake dust. The rears were some crap Autozone that they put on when I bought it used...

    Possible Recall 2002-2007?

    The stock harness has that relay package that converts the 3 bulb flasher / stoplight / tail into stop/tail. There are 3rd party ones I'm sure. Got mine as 2nd owner and it's not on the window sticker so assume it was dealer installed. Mopar hitch and I hear the relays clock in the rear...

    Self adjusting parking brake lever.....

    1" seems like a lot. If there is no other issue - such as cable rusted in the housing you might get some adjustment. There is some adjustment inside the console. Someone might have overadjusted it in there at one time. FWIW - I just did mine at 90,000 - no cable adjustment, but the...

    Need QUIET Tires Real Bad, Any Suggestions?

    No idea if true or not, but I have heard other toad users over inflate somewhat. I think the more passenger car style you use, the quieter you will be. The more closed the outer tread is the better.

    LED Tail/brake light blows fuses

    Have not determined what the sequence is but I'm blowing either both tail fuses or brake light - or both. 3157 LED - I know there is a 3157 CK (or something like that) Do they need that or could I have a bad bulb or even polarity issue. For now I'm back to normal bulbs - hard to trouble...

    Steering pulls to the right after 2 alignments HELP

    Does it change by moving the tires around? Sounds like a classic bad tire issue. I had one that would pull even on the rear. On the front it felt like a 40 mph cross wind. If all checks out mechanically - tire or wheel. Or it was wrecked.

    Lift help

    I never even removed or loosened the sway bar. Wonder if I should break it loose then re-tighten? Mines 2 1/2" higher that it was.

    Stock height but stiffer.

    How much are stock? EMU are 170 or so and you know what you are getting rate wise. Why not airbags? Best there is to get a little stiffer and weight carrying when you need it. Do it right the first time, or do it wrong a couple times IMHO :)

    Do go into the light.

    Have mine, a 2d LEd mounted to the left side of the driver seat. I used the Mag clips. Kind of a PITA and only have one screw in one clip, but it works. You will need machine screws to mount, not the self tapping ones. There are better, brighter, smaller, lights, BUT these things just never...

    Rear Gate -Glass Lift Shocks

    Just last week I installed 2 new Monroe. Purchased via Amazon as I have Prime. Now I almost broke my neck getting out of the way when it opened and my wife needs back surgery from trying to close it :) These suckers are strong - maybe I should have just done one. They are black - look as...

    Brake Job- pe- questions

    Will be replacing all calipers, master cyl., all rotors and of course, pads. Anything unexpected from a normal vehicle? I've done the fronts before, but never had the rear off nor any rotors. Any tools out of the ordinary - I have more than the normal gut and less than the pros. FWIW...

    Best media for blasting Rubicon rims?

    FWIW - I did my stock alum. wheels and my cheap blaster and play sand wouldn't cut it. That clear coat is hard. A commercial blaster would obviously do better. I'd look at an oxide type. Primer covers any "marks" anyway. Found the best and easiest was paint remover - did not mar the...

    Rock Lizard Convertible Bumper is here......

    I'd put a coat of etching primer after a wipe down with a phosphate based cleaner/primer/etcher. I've had way to many bare metal jobs rust and that combo works.

    Best/worst mod!

    Beat - painted the stock wheels. I had the notorious Jeep clear coat peeling issue. Put it off because I was sure they were pitted and would take a lot of repair time. After stripping, sanding , etc. on the spare was amazed to see that the aluminum was fine. Repaint with Duplicolor in...

    The blower motor resistor pack-fixable?

    Tough luck - I doubt the numbers are available. Maybe someone has one laying around and could check with a VOM. Also - it's one of those things that would not need to be precise. You could check about any pack from another vehicle and get some slower speeds. I'm sure one could calculate it...
