A while back I cracked my front fender flare while leaning over it. I ordered a set of Rugged Ridge flares and today found some garage time to mess around with it. Didn’t go so well- the fit is not good - especially at the front edge. I tried heating the flare in a 130 degree water bath but...

Our family will be meeting up with some friends out west in June and will be in Moab for a couple days. Looking to do a jeep rental and/or tour for a day. Interested in any recommendations for good rental or tour companies. Thanks.

Last fall I noticed a valve cover leak. My jeep tinkering time has been limited lately, but I finally found some time to mess with it last weekend. Decided to try a Real Gasket this time so ordered one a while back. Was amazed when I pulled the cover off that the felpro gasket I used...

Back in the fall I picked up a fold and tumble rear seat that is a perfect match to my original front seats. The only problem is the top most seam has started to split and looks like it could quickly get worse with use. Are there any options to repair this?

What is the significance of the barcode on the radiator housing behind the drivers side headlight?

I finally got around to doing the nutter bypass. I now have MC2100 and all unnecessary vaccum lines, etc. removed. I am now working on cleaning up and removing the wiring associated with the computer. Working backwards from the computer plug and diagnostic plugs, I have been tracing and then...

I had my brake lines replaced last year. A kit from inline tube was used. Earlier today, I removed the plastic frame cover and noticed that the front brake line comes out between the bottom of the grill and cross member. It looks odd and from pics I have seen online this does not look like...

I need to replace my power steering lines. Decided to put in a M.O.R.E steering box bracket while i am at it. I am having trouble getting the original bracket off. Two of the bolts that connect the original bracket to the box are tucked up inside the bracket and have a head that looks similar...

I have recently noticed that after a 20 minute or longer drive that my engine compartment seems hotter than normal. The hood gets very hot. the aluminum valve cover, hard fuel line that goes over the valve cover, carb body, air cleaner- they all get almost too hot to touch. 258 is original/...

A few months ago, I replaced the stock carb with an MC2100. In the process of removing and replacing vacuum lines i broke the nipple off my evaporation (charcoal) canister. I couldn't figure out an easy fix and I didn't want to eliminate it like some do, so I decided to replace the canister...

I need to add a back seat to my scrambler and have been debating what to do. I need a seat for carting my young teenagers around town from time to time. A back seat would rarely, if ever be used on the highway and definitely not on trails or off road. My original thought was to remove the...

Like the title says, I recently noticed very slow coolant leak at the intake manifold fitting. I first noticed this in November. At that time I couldn't tell what was leaking because the fluid was in random drips and not coming out of the fitting itself- and it was a brownish color- see pics...

I just took the Scrambler out for a ride in the snow. When I went to crank up the passenger side window it was extremely hard to crank. My windows have never been easy to crank and they have never gone all the way up- they stop short about 3/16". I took the door panel off and it was clear...

I recently installed an OMIX aluminum valve cover. I used a felpro gasket instead of the cork one and installed dry (no rtv) per the felpro instructions. I torqued the allen bolts to 55in-lbs working from the center out per the instructions. First drive and the thing leaked. It didn't leak...

I had a thread going as I slowly work on installing an MC 2100 I purchased from Gronk. Once started I decided to put on an aluminum valve cover and Felpro gasket in an effort to stop the oil leak. I have been cleaning things up as I go and taking my time to learn as I go. Thanks for the help...

I am getting close to pulling the trigger on a lift and gearing change. I have been researching this, reading all the threads I can find, and would welcome any opinions/ advice. I know enough to be dangerous about this stuff. The reality is I will be having a Jeep Mechanic do this work for...

Does anyone have experience replacing the vent/ heat cable? Mine was difficult to operate into the vent position. I made the mistake of pulling it too hard and broke the plastic housing where the cable attaches to the dash. Upon closer inspection, it appears this connection had been bandaged...
