    Air Bag Light On

    On my 03 TJ, a few times in the past the air bag light would come on but then go off later and stay off for awhile until the next time. Recently it came on and won't go off now. I've seen mention that it could be the clock spring. My cruise control hasn't worked for years and now the air bag...

    New jeep doors are light

    I bought my daughter a '20 JL and I swear her doors a much lighter than my TJ doors. I put her four doors on yesterday and even her back doors are so much lighter than her front but I then went to put my doors on and noticed that there is a big difference in weight. Hers even have power windows...

    Jack tools missing

    Does any one know where I can find a replacement set of jack tools? I know they are supposed to be mounted on the passenger side in a pouch but I just noticed that mine are not there. I can't find a replacement online so not sure what to use. edit: this is for an 03 TJ

    Clockspring?

    My airbag light has recently come on and wondering if it's the clockspring or it could be something else. From what I've read, the cruise control, horn and airbag all use the clockspring for electrical connection. My horn works but my cruise control hasn't worked since I got the Jeep a bit over...

    TJ Mirror temperature sensor location

    My mirror displays the direction and temperature but the temperature is about 20 degrees too high. Anyone know where or how I can locate the sensor and maybe relocate it? I'm thinking it's too close to the hot bits somewhere. I know it should be located between the radiator and grill but I...

    Door weatherstrip replacement

    Has anyone replaced the weatherstrip around a full door on a TJ? I've got an 03 and the current one is pretty ripped up. I've got the replacement but am not sure what I'm getting into. Any tricks or anything special I need to know?

    Flushing the heater core

    I think I need to flush my heater core as I'm not getting a lot of heat from the vents. It's warm but just not hot. I can put the selector on defrost/floor and put the fan on high and never get warm enough. I can put it on floor only and it's better but still not hot like I know TJ heaters can...

    Painted my door handles

    Over the weekend I decided to paint my door handles and I think they turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. I had looked at replacing them since they are not very expensive but it looked like a lot of work to remove the door panel and do the swap. If my paint job doesn't last long I still...

    My Jeep is growing up!

    I am so excited, I had to post. I just picked up my Jeep after putting a 2" lift and new wheels and tires. It looks so much better and it even drives better! Before, it would pull to the right even after an alignment. I wanted to wait for the new tires to get that address and now I don't have...

    No longer without a Jeep!

    I can finally be true to my user name as I have a TJ again! For two and a half long years I've had no Jeep but last night an 03 Sahara in green came home with me. I found it on Craigslist about 1.5 hours away from me. It was owned by a guy that has a small dealership but for the last two years...

    Would you buy a Salvage Jeep?

    I'm on the hunt for a TJ and I found one that looks to be in great shape but running a search on the VIN it looks to have been totaled and sold at a salvage auction and repaired. Below are before and after repair pics. 10,900 is what they are asking. What it looks like now.

    Too many miles or good deal?

    I'm looking at getting back into a Jeep and am considering an 04 TJ Sahara. It has 165,000 miles and wondering if it's worth it. It drives/rides nicely but has a bit of an exhaust leak. The paint is decent but original so there are chips on the grill and a few touch ups on the doors. The back...

    I need a Jeep

    This summer it will be two years without a Jeep and I'm having withdrawals. :cry: We are taking a two week trip out west in July and I think we'll be selling the camper after that so I will no longer need a big ass F150. I should be working but I've been looking at the Jeep site and playing...

    Sad, sad day in the Southtj household

    I have to sell my Jeep and I am really bummed out. :cry: I'll be putting it in the for sale section soon but if anyone is interested please let me know. It's a 2013 Rubicon with just about every option. 1.5" lift with brand new wheels and tires. Brand new as in installed in May new. It's rarely...

    The JK grew up a little this weekend

    This weekend, after two and a half years, I finally got around to having a lift installed and got new wheels and tires. The lift is a Teraflex 1.5" leveling kit with springs. Tires are GY Duratrac 285\70R17 and the wheels are AEV Pintlers. I had read that the ride may be a little rougher but...

    2011 - 2013 JK Recall

    Just got the notice in the mail yesterday. If you have a 11-13 JK it could go up in flames. :bomb: Well, probably not but you could have an electrical fire. I believe that the heated mirrors come with the Power Convenience Group.

    Just stopped by to vent

    My wife and I both get end of year bonuses and we were ready to treat ourselves. Years past we've used the money for new house, furniture, school etc. Last summer we moved into a new house knowing there were some repairs such as the HVAC that would need to be done but we hoped it would make it a...

    Jeep got dented this weekend

    We had the most rain in one day since 1935 early Sunday morning and that caused some flooding in the back yard. It also flooded the back room of our house and garage but that's a whole 'nother story. The basket ball goal is one of those portable ones with the base that you fill with water. That...
