Hello- after 8 years the time has come for replacing the springs since all have sagged badly. I bought the JBA tommud econolift when I first got the jeep. over the years shocks were replaced a few times (old man emu are the best bang for my buck), kk forks added etc. As for front springs-...

Hey guys and gals- many years of wheeling with rubicons have taken their toll...lol... and i broke a passenger side CV axle. It rattles like a tin can. that is no surprise to me - I have a front DTT and I am running 4.10s and a 3.5 inch lift- and I have had the factory MOPAR CV for many years...

Hello - after 6 years I finally replaced my JBA UCA's because one broke. however - on a recent trip with the new JBA's I started to get bad noises whenever the jeep hit a bump. after 7 years I sure do know my ckunks, grinds, screeches - but this was new. the noise is audible when it's at its...

after 6 years of use- I broke a UCA (dont mind the crap plastidip paint on the UCAs). Lucky for me- i was doing about 25 mph in the desert and suddenly the kj pulled hard left. I was headed into a boulder but was lucky to stop in time. I thought a lower balljoint broke but it was worse. the...

Hello - strange phenomenon i cant explain. when i travel at about 100 kph (that's about 60 mph for you americans) I started to notice that when i turn the wheel just a bit- to switch lanes for example - i get a wobble. This does not happen when i turn the steering wheel more- like when i turn...

hey guys i just got my kj after a front strut install. for those who dont know my jeep - it has front ome 927- top plates and a jba ring between the fork and the shock - and kk forks. also has a subframe drop. After i checked with you guys i went for yellow bilsteins - 4600 and not the "lift...

Hello my passenger side rear tail light is always coming loose. it is the strangest thing - the rear passenger tail light is held in place by two star head bolts (my english....sorry) on the rear of the kj - and the tail light has two pointy plastic extensions that go into the body. no matter...

hello guys - time for new shocks. 5 years ago i had the ome's and they were great. came with the jba tommud (Tom you are the man!) econilift- with ome 927's (i hope i remember the spring code right). 3 years later the ome's went to bin and i got some rancho's - not my cup of tea (or mud) at all...

Hey guys- my quest for front suspension noise continues and things are going bad. My front suspension has been making noises when i hit a potlole. alignment was done, my JBA UCA's are brand new and the noise is driving me mad. I lifted the jeep today and started checking. And i think i got it...

Hello Time to re build my JBA UCA's - I replaced the ball joints with new JBA units and also the rubber bushings. and from that moment the handling went to sh.. If i go 30 miles per hour into a bend- traction control blinks. when i point the steering wheel forward- the handling feels really...

Hey guys and gals Winter is upon us and it has rained a lot. opened my door yesterday and to my horror there was a nice little pool of water in the drivers footwell. Now i am not one to get scared by a leaking jeep...lol. no stranger to jeeps- and that damp smell is always there. but this is A...

Hello- long time since last post My front end has been making noises under cornering. most rubber parts were replaced to poliurithane long ago, and after lots of searching it came down to my anti roll bar mounts- or as u call them "sway bar links". the rubber is shot. mine are JBA extended...

hey guys. strange problem- my passenger window (front) stopped working. it will go up and down very slowly and sometimes- not move at all. at first i thought it was bad wiring- or a tired window motor - but then i noticed that if i shut off the engine and re start- it works fine- up and down...

hello guys. the time has come for some 265/75s. i always change the spare as well- as i did today. i already converted my 2006 to a US spec spare tire carrier (euro version will only hold a factory size tire cause if the way it is built) - but the 265 rubs on the bumper (euro bumper- it is not...

hello recently i had to change my tires- and the shop did a bad job mounting the spare- they ruined the threads. they were super nice and they want to pay for new lug nuts and all that. an american kj has a different spare tire mount than a euro kj- while american kj's have the spare just...

hello. i keep getting a "liftgate open" message even when my rear cargo door is closed and jeep is fully locked.so the sensor is probably broken. however i can not find the specific sensor for sale. any amazon/ebay links? 2006 kj

hello. my kj is set up as an overlander-and today i really loaded for a trip. coolers...sleeping bags....beer......beer....beer..... the rear door needed some muscle to close properly- and i guess something hit the latch of the rear door window. and the rear glass hatch did not close. In have...
