Thanks Steven. Sounds like a "Sensor" could work one minute and not work the next. Is that what you experienced? My jeep's steering is good most of the time, and only occasionally is sluggish. I have not experienced the problem for a couple of weeks now. But does the sensor actually control...

Well, I just checked the Axel u-joints, and they seem fine. I did the magic marker test, and will monitor the marks after some road driving. I checked the Steering column, and everything checks out fine. While I had the jeep jacked up, I checked the Drive shaft u joints and they seem fine...

Thanks so much for your great tips. I appreciate your extra effort to help me. This issue is so weird. I decided to use the Jeep to go to work this morning, in order to try to sense any of the issues you have mentioned, and the steering worked perfectly....even backing out of the garage when...

Belt looks fine. When standing looking at the engine from the front of the jeep, the belt spins clockwise. Fluid level is at the "C", which I assume is the level when Cold, so that checks out good. RPM's when idling is at 500 RPM's. No lift of any sort. Tires are 31's. I briefly examined...

Well, now I have a project for next Saturday....maybe even an evening this week. I can tell you I do not hear any clicking sounds when I turn, but will check the joints nonetheless. Thanks so much, that is tremendous information. Any other ideas if the Axel U Joints check out fine?

First thing I checked was if I was in 4 WD. I was not. Other than being embarassed, wish it were that :roll:. As for the axel U joints, how would I check them to determine if there is something wrong? As a non-DIYer, can I look at them and notice a flaw?

Lately, when I start my '04 TJ, the steering is very stiff, and requires more muscle power to turn the wheels. It is almost like the wheels are fighting me not to turn. It gets better once I have driven for a little. But it usually pops up when I am going slow, like turning into a parking...

I was considering the USA Spec, but at over $100, I have decided it is better to just buy a new radio. At about the same price, maybe slightly higher, you get bluetooth, Aux input and USB input. And it is better quality and higher wattage than the stock radio. Was considering the JVC Arsenal...

Love the crack about the clowns. Appreciate all your insight. Definitiely decided against the roof rack. Still looking for a trailer. I want it for the jeep, will keep the jeep, never ever will have a minivan....the jeep is it, it want it, I love it. I think I found a used trailer that...

Thanks to all of you who responded. Obviously, there is a degree of caution when adding cargo to a jeep. I appreciate all your personal experiences, it does give me a well-rounded overview in order to make an informed decision on what to do. Overall, I think I need to minimize the camping...

New jeep owner...'04 Rubicon (TJ). Been hearing horror stories about people towing trailers behind jeeps....even light load (1000 lb) stories. I am open to opinions on whether trailers should be used with Wranglers. But unless I hear compelling stories that trailers are fine, I would like a roof...
