So I just got home from a good night at school and found something in the mail for me. My 20 year letter from the Army!!! Sooo stoked! I DID IT!!! I'm now eligible for retirement!!! So many memories (good and bad), way too many lost friends and brothers, and a decomposing body. But I freaking...

So I've been driving the xj back and forth to school and it's doing really well. Despite it being for sale I kinda feel the desire to put some of the interior back in it to make it a little more comfortable. The headliner was pretty nappy and sagging in places but the backer board is in decent...

I'd like any of you guys that have/had a 3rd gen grand cherk WJ with the 3.0 MB diesel in it to offer your thoughts, opinions etc on it. Issues you had or known troubles?? Thinking of getting out of the wife's VW sportwagon tdi due to the recall issue. Thinking of finding a used CRD. Help!?

Holy blast from the past... anyone else remember this? Sounds like it's coming back?? https://www.cartoonsmag.com/

Can anyone look at this and say what's up with the groove in these spider gears. Not making noise or having issues and at 150k miles, only a little metal in the fluid. Don't see any other weird wear issues, just this groove.

So the wife and I decided to kill some time and let me lower my blood pressure after visiting the DMV (Long story) so we rolled in to see what the Garden of the Gods is. Now that we live in the springs we need to at least see some of it. As we are pulling in the entrance I spot (and accidentally...

So I was wondering about adhesive, fiberglass, and metal...and if/how to join them permanently. My factory full top, single wall, needs some love. I was doing some reading on other things and wondered if it was possible to use some sort of super adhesive to "glue" on some top latches for the...

Ok gang... having some dark thoughts so toss me some advice please. Currently my 83 scrambler is AMC 360, NV4500, NWF 2:1 crawl box, dana 300. After driving it a bit today I'm not real excited about some of the noises it's making. The rear shaft is only about 25"s and the diff is sitting pretty...

So I was wandering through the local junkyard today and found a (GASP!) 82 CJ7. Pretty much a cancer victim but I found an OEM nutmeg (whitco) bikini top laying in the floor. Its not show quality by far but is in surprisingly good shape. Just curious if there is any differencebetween 7 and...

So I'm about to where I think its time to do something about my Dana 300. I've been working on the bugs for the suspension trying to get the rear drive shaft at an acceptable angle/length. I think I finally have the ride height where I can live with it but I'm still thinking more is needed...

Ran across an 81 jeep wagoneer in the junkyard today. The interior was blue and looked close to the slate blue in my 83 scrambler. While the wagoneer was doomed, there was a lot of interior stuff that looked in really good shape. Wonder if it is as hard to find as cj stuff. I took pics but...

Anyone here running brand X (?) heavy duty upgrade out put for their dana 300 t-case? I'd love to know how hard it was to install and if your happy with it?? Thanks all!

Help guys! I put the full hard top back on for the winter (sniff sniff) but while it was off it had one of the rear side windows pop out. I tried for aver 2 hours to get the dang thing back in but it beat me. I tried using some wire around the groove to help maybe pull the seal but nada. I...

Arch... sorry guys but I've been searching for a thread here and can't find it. Someone here was building a modded 8 and bent up their own rear inner fenders. Can someone help me find it? Please and thank you!! :)

Ok all you modification gurus... I'm fed up, done, and super over the POS drum brakes on my 8. I feel like it is (past) time for me to swap over to discs but I'm not sure what all I need to make it happen. I'd like to do this on a budget using readily available from parts stores parts where...

The end is neigh. Seems Jeep/Feep is quickly moving to alter the icon we all love. Soon to a stealership near you... A Wrangler with no solid front axle. Not clear if this or next remodel design but IFS seems to be near a shoe in soon.

Well... it seems that the temp fix I did of running a GM pressure line for the power steering just got expensive. Being in a rush didn't help so I kinda expected this or some issue. Seems the pressure line was rubbing on the bottom of the radiator and made a hole. :( So...in an effort to build...

Just a short post on something I'm finding humorous. When I first got here to Ft Myer VA, the first place I looked at was the auto shop on post. There, in a back corner and collecting dust was a "project" CJ7. One of the guys that volunteers at the shop owns it but hasn't had much...

Since details are not yet out and none are yet known to be accountable I will simply say that the attack at the Boston Marathon makes me want to weep. 15+ years in the military and I've seen this type of thing in many countries but to see it here.... 9-11 was horrific. This... this is something...

I was thinking about soft tops today and had an idea. Maybe its dumb or unreasonable but here it is. Has anyone thought of (or done?) replacing the snaps on a K-line top with a more modern style slip under rail system? I really don't care for the snaps and since my K-top is pretty much...
