    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Today I managed to strip the threads of the oil pan while replacing the drain plug for a 10k oil change. I wish that I could blame some grease monkey at the dealership, but turns out that I AM the grease monkey. :mad: I did some reading on LostJeeps in order to determine the bastard Italian...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    In order to finish off the in tank LP install, I drilled a hole in the unibody, behind the drivers seat and under the carpet, for the new lift pump ground connection. I scraped the paint back but also used a couple of small "star" lock washers to better lock the wire unto the bare metal. Hooked...

    Bulb keeps burning out and breaking, anyone know why?

    You need to check the ground connections for the tail light on that side and make sure its solid. Bad grounds can cause all sorts of problems, including voltage surges that can burn out filaments.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Yesterday I pressure washed Giddyups underside to prevent as much dirt as possible from falling into my eyes as I dropped her fuel tank in order to install the new Lift Pump. I also used a swivel ratchet adapter with an extension and impact driver to loosen the tank straps, so I did NOT have to...

    While there are advantages and disadvantages to either type of fan depending on vehicle use (ie towing vs commuter or highway vs city), it is important to note that by the time you can get electric fans to push as much air as a mechanical/clutch/belt driven fan you are talking about a whole...

    Newbie Libby Owner…REALLY need alot of help pls

    What you are describing as "jobber aftermarket" parts is VERY different then what I am describing as "counterfeit" parts. Aftermarket parts are designed by wholesale or brand manufacturing companies. While these companies have an interest in obtaining greater market share by making and selling...

    Newbie Libby Owner…REALLY need alot of help pls

    You are correct to be wary … counterfeit parts are definitely becoming more and more of a problem with both eBay and Amazon … that is one of the main reasons I suggested buying through Rockauto … all of their participating wholesalers are legitimate parts distributors.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    THREE times today I used the 11mm wrench that I just started keeping in Giddyup's saddlebags to purge the air out of her fuel filter cartridge so that I could keep her from bucking and falling flat n her face. The first time was out of unfortunate necessity after a quick pit stop in the morning...

    intermittent P0300 on my 2005 CRD

    Yesterday I ordered the Sasquatch in tank lift pump kit with their custom made 2005 wiring harness. Its a little expensive and if I had known their was only 2 wires to add, I might have just got the Carter Ram pump form Rock Auto for $120. That said, the Sasquatch kit with harness is plug and...
